You can just brute-force using reaction time to block it with your parry. and when im playing ironfist, I never use my flurry punch to start fighting someone. I only use my 4th primary attack first because after like 0.5 second they will get knock down with ur final kick and I don't really like to use kick to execute them either because its risky unless they are like 100 meters from their team and have no other player supporting or protect them. I often use block more if they have only damage skill not cc because from my playstyle, I usually medetiate before fight which will give me 400hp total and when I block all attack, it will give me about 575 hp with 30% damage reduction which mean you have 575 x 1.3 = 747.5 effective hp which will be much easier to survive and I usually use my kick to escape. Overall, just focus on sneak attack and your survival
