[ Kotetsu certainly doesn't have the skills or refinement that Sholmes does, but he does, at least have some decent reflexes. It's just unfortunate that he's not graceful in any of this.
So, he mostly dodges, it still catches his cheek. The dodge is an awkward one to the side and he stumbles over his feet a little.
Sorry your sparring partner isn't an A Class boxers, but it doesn't get him down. He plants his feet to get his grounding and faces Sholmes again. This time, he's the one throwing a punch with his left hand to start. ]
[That's an alright dodge - Sholmes nods, humming under his breath as he catches the other's cheek. He's starting to get into the groove of things, but the key word is "starting". Kotetsu is already aiming a punch back, and while he lifts his arms to block the hit, its at an angle that causes him to side step from the impact.]
[Well, he won't go down with one punch. It's time for a rebuttal - he decides to go with a fakeout, acting as if he'll jab with his right hand, only to aim a strike with his left.]
[ Well, at least one of them is getting warmed up because Kotetsu really... isn't, apparently. Er, Wild Tiger. Being not only unfamiliar with Sholmes' fighting style, but also reading too much into the fake out, that left hits him square in the jaw and right down on his ass.
It leaves him reeling for a few moments as he loses a few more braincells. (He doesn't have that many to spare...)

[He'll go to stand by the other's side, looking down.]
Disappointing, how quickly a hero can go down. Come on, my dear fellow. I'm sure there's more to you than this.

You just caught me off guard.
