Chop to throat is potentially lethal, but hey, that's in character.

My problem is with panel 2, where she's leaning in. That punch would have no power, plus every single time I've made that mistake in Karate sparring, it's resulted in a sore nose and damaged glasses (IE getting socked in the face).

In this fight, Coral is doing a much better job then her opponent, not over extending, but instead working her way inside her opponent's guard.

Note: to throat chop from that angle while in front of the person, you'd have to lift your elbow fairly high up, exposing your lower torso and side.

Note no2: That head protection would be more appropriate if kicking to the head was involved - otherwise in my experience it's disorienting and restrictive.

To parallel this fight to karate sparring, I'd sum it up as a frustrated, strength dependant learner, encumbered by protective material fighting against an arrogant person of higher skill (Coral, in this case) who is in no mood whatsoever to be instructive and is perhaps even toying with them.

But hey, that's just my interpretation.

No offence, but your fight sequences are a little confusing.
