@Dimitri0809 Well, touches are how épées earn a point, but sabres are a slicing sword. Trust me, I fence sabre. And if you thought épées just do little tiny pokes, think again. My friend's arms are always covered in bruises from her épée bouts.

I was hoping to see a fencing match with a knockout.

This is why the sport of fencing is much more safer there is no hard impact to the head in fencing it's aimed on a sword just touching your oponent and you get a point simple as that.
A sport is a just a something that is played similar to a game and is just something that as a point to it. Like in fencing where 2 people and the aim for those 2 people is to make their sword touch their oponent.

@rini6 I know your comment is a year old, and I'm not sure if this is exactly relevant. But I figured you may find this interesting. In professional mixed martial arts, if a fighter is knocked out, they are actually suspended by the athletic commision for 90 days.

If there is a fencing response, the athlete should be kept out of play for a week or two. Two concussions in a short period of time can lead to severe brain edema (swelling) and death.
Of course, they should also have immediate medical care if they display this response.
