Besides what G said, Bumas have this characteristic you can observe in the whole series, that being when they fire their mouth weapon, the generally do this funky 'lock the elbows down and back' move, much like in the poster, and generally don't move very much while firing. So if you can dodge the Buma's mouth weapon, you pretty much have a free shot before they cease fire and recover. Which Iron Man or his Knight Sabre allies would know, and would also likely take into account.
