It's hard to say if they intended it to be "impossible". Obv with fights like Hoy/Sandman its clear they wanted it to be impossible but with the others there are a threshold where if you are fast enough then you can do it. The developers probably didn't intend Bull, Clown, and Rick to be KO'able but they put VERY low thresholds instead of making it softcoded/hardcoded fights. That's my theory anyway, it could be a different outcome
I still wonder what it would look like if you knocked out Bear Hugger or Mad Clown with a body shot. I know they can occasionally take damage from those if you punch them there during certain animations
I’ve always had a question. I know in spo most to all of the fighters can ko you, but can Gabby?

Some of them require you to dizzy them (by going fast enough) and then throw a super/normal punch at the correct time, this goes for all fights. Or if a fight has a special move sometimes a well timed super/normal punch will send the down, but it depeneds on what fight you are doing.
