Highly-trained boxers have a plan until they get punched in the face.
A bigger problem is that you have a lot of people getting into fights without even being able to think of a credible plan in theory.
Tell me what your ideal self would do, and if you have great answers, you're ahead of maybe most people. Even if you don't know for certain that you wouldn't freeze the next time you're punched in the face.
Also, the fighter who can relate multiple times they got punched in the face and were stunned might still be a better fighter than the one who cherry-picks a time they didn't get stunned and can spin a story of the plan working out well.
