Street Fighting and Survival

[DJDamage]

When we go out at night we tend to bump into things at night. There is a potential of meeting up against shady characters who may want to beat the crap out of (possibly kill ) us for various reasons (he is drunk and wants to fight, you looked at his gf the wrong way, he wants to rob you etc). Often if the guy is bigger then you he would see it as advantage (size does matter). If you are just a strong guy and you have limited skills you will end up like this guy facing a bigger opponant (kimbo):

clearly Kimbo is the bigger stronger fighter and having the same skills as the other fighter, he would eventually overpower him. Most guys that pick fights are pure brawlers. They are big strong and violent but they have limited fighting skills.

Its best to take martial arts to better yourself because you never know who will you meet up. Taking muay thai, brazilian jujitsu or even krav maga will get you the edge you need to overcome your typical street brawler. Better punching Grappling and kicking techniques will give you that edge. Beside your strength you really need to work on your cardio because you can be fatigue rather quickley and lose out as a result. You need to have as much energy as possible. Now lets look at another fighter with Mixed Martial Arts background taking on Kimbo:

Due to the limited rules imposed on this fight Gannon would have finished Kimbo alot sooner. He had more energy left in him then Kimbo (working on cardio helped him) he was able to hold onto his opponent and immobilized him while punching him. If Gannon were allowed to kick and grapple on the floor in this fight he would have easily won. It all boils down to Skill, Strength, size ,energy and intelligence. If you got 3 out of the 5 really pegged down you will win and possibly get out of a very sticky situation.

well placed hit in the groin, underneath the ribs (on center of body), will usually get things over with quickly (unless you wana wait for his buddys)

There ware days when in the past whern i would rather take a beating then raise my hand at another person (back in great school). GOD HELP THE GUY THAT STARTS A FIGHT WITH ME NOW, I'd cut him with out a second thought

Now just think, there are people who do, and defend against what your talking about on a regular basis.

Last night, me and my friend got into our 6th gang fight in 2 weeks. Pipes, bats, fists, two on ones...

If you were new, and you came up to me holding a knife, I'd fake you out an kick you in the stomach.

Sigh

*rolls eyes*

falls asleep

 

[Phoenix_of_the_ashes]

Gannon is pretty big an strong also, there goes your point...

 

[spider_007]

any guy who is walking down a street looking for a fight deserves what he is gona get. Chances are one day some guy is gona see him coming, pull a gun and drop him right there.

If you kick the guys knees out and put him in a wheel chair, chanecs are he is gona see the light a hell of a lot sooner, and might even do some good in his life, that's not even counting the people you just saved from going through the same thing.

I wouldn't mind having a nife stuck in my arm if i got a good shot at colapsing his throut. My arm will heal 3-4 weeks, he on the other hand will be breathing through a tube for a while (if not the rest of his life.).

Get real buddy, chances are youll just collapse of shock when he sticks that knife in your arm.

 

[flippinfreak]

spider, you sound like you talk pretty big words...

have you ever been in the situation where you had to hospitalize a person? Seriously, you can tell me the truth.

 

[Skel]

I hate all internet wanna be thugs, tough guys, etc etc etc

 

[diplomatic_lies]

I'll bet none of you guys can pick up a chick while she's trying to mug you with a gun

 

[flippinfreak]

lol diplomatic, I'd love to see that... So, How'd ya maintain the "I am the prize" mentality? Did you get to keep your wallet? Do you James Bond is such a wishful thinking movie?

I bet you never laid a woman who drugged you and stole your money...

Never met a woman who tried to steal from you, but was too drunk and failed half way through, hid in the washroom and fell asleep holding the money in her hands, which were down her pants...

I don't have a problem with my own blood, it the other peoples that i can't stand.

No I haven't, thank god. I honestly haven't goten in a "REAL" fight since grade 5. I'm not a violent person by nature, and I usually like to totaly ignore the people in question......

I'll bet none of you guys can pick up a chick while she's trying to mug you with a gun

A hooker tried running away once with my money but i chased her down, the minute i started screaming at her with my Schwartcheneger (sp?) accent she gave it back

The second one wasn't so easy, that's untill i took out the steering wheel club out and dumped her in middle of a quiet subberb 45 minutes from her "getho" and her "babysitter"

Yo peep this. The other day I was walkin down the street and this old bytch looks at me all c*ck-eyed 'n shyt. It could have been lazy eye or something, but why take the chance? So I stepped up to her face and said "WHAT THE FYCK U LOOKIN AT GRAMMS?!?". She started trembling and shaking. Well thanks to my awesome training I got by watching those 'Tae-bo' tapes, I recognized her shaking as primal aggressive behavior. So I decided to pre-emptively fyck her up before she had a chance to claw me or bite me with her gums or whatever the fyck old people do when they brawl.

I picked up a rock and screamed just like Billy Blanks taught me to do, and cracked her damn skull open. She fell to the ground and shyt herself. The smell was disgusting. Her brains oozed out of her head and I proceeded to round house kick the brains across the street. Brains are smart and if I would have let them ooze towards my feet they probably would have found a way to attack me. Funny thing was, even her brain looked old.

Then, just to make sure she was down, I did some Tae-bo kicks to her side, screaming in between each kick just like old Billy Blanks himself: "Haigh! Haigh! Haiggghhhttt!" Then for some reason I got down on the ground and did 20 sit ups, probably just out of habit, but more probably just to show the old bytch who the man is.

So for all you young guns, and internet tough guys, you better shut up until you learn some Tae-bo. It's the MMA of the future. Watch for me in the UFC with Billy Blanks in my corner.

lol, interenet thugs kill me!

Gannon is an slow over-weight punching bag! :yawn:


In UFC 55 Hinkle tore him a new assshole! He was bleeding like a faucet.
Why anybody believes that this fat piece of lard has any real talent is beyond me!

I like Jeet Kune Do. No nonense, and very effective. :box:

 

[Q-Pid]

I'm a fan of passive resistance.

AFCs start fights, DJs break them up/stop them from happening.

Most people don't actually want to fight each other. It's amazing how simple it is to stop anything from happening.

Touch wood obviously. No point tempting fate.

No you didn't.

 

[SELF-MASTERY]

I stay out of trouble by avoiding trouble and situations where ppl are induced to do stupid shyt (clubs and such.)

FWIW I would rather face two violent guys than one or a guy with a weapon, so that I can shoot them with my gun (why do u think i have a ccw permit?)

 

[Eccentric]

Different situations call for different options.

For instance, if someone picked a fight with me at a club, I wouldn't want to seriously hurt the person. He's not worth a possible lawsuit or jail time. So if he throws a punch, I'll let him off with a "warning" move. Nothing voilent, just something that's extremely effective that usually gets them thinking "ok, maybe this isn't the person I want to be fighting." The simplest Aikido moves usually proves this. It's amazing how fast you can take someone down while they're stationary just by manipulating their wrist. If they throw a punch, the more energy used, is that much more energy that's going to turn into counter resistance.

But if someone is REALLY trying to hurt me or a loved one, and not show off to a crowd or his buddies, then all bets are off. Then again do I want to put my self in danger to find out what this guy wanted to achieve? Hell no. :trouble:
