My point was that skill is a constant that I consider separate from character strengths, and I'm assuming that said direct hits are guaranteed to land and land hard. But eh, why not. Just why the hell not. Anything is possible in our fine Arena and beyond. Whether a character can sneeze away galaxies or struggle to bench a few hundred pounds, either may be taken out by an adversary with a heavy enough lean in firepower, and alternatively either may survive a good while whether by way of boxing skills or force fields. I have my experiences, you have yours.
