street fight!

[accuflex]

Things have been getting a little "rough" at my school over the past week and everyone knows theres bound to be a fight soon. The thing is, i might be in it In no way am i a fighter, but if someone wants to go, then ill go. I have never been in a fight and would like some tips on defending my self if I ever have to.

then just start bashing faces. no questions just bash. not very many people in high school fight well so if you just bring the pain you should win.

OH yea, most the guys in the matials dont like to street fight or condone street fighting. so the chances of you getting any serious feed back on this is very small.

I don't practice any martial art on a regular basis, so take this advice for what its worth...pure oppinion. I'd say what you should do is buy some boxing gloves and spar with a friend. Get used to being in front of a person who can strike right back at you. You will find that if you haven't done so before, you'll be flinching and ducking like a motherfucker when you get in striking range. Know that this instinctive fear and adrenaline will be present and learn to controll and harness it. Also...spar in the clinch with the person. Get in a classic clinch position (like a boxing or muay thai tie-up) with your sparring partner and practice landing knees, elbows, and shifting the opponents momentum. Try to make it instintive to gain position and leverage advantage once your bodies tie up. You'll find that much of the instinctive stuff you both pull off while sparring is mostly common cliche' moves you see in a typical fight. If you expect it and controll it, you will be the one with an advantage.

Its mostly mental though...the fight will be decided in the first 10 seconds, or before contact is even made.

Good luck, and avoid the situation if at all possible.

You can always take lessons or buy videos on this subject--there are quite a few professionals to get sound advice from.

Yeah, stay out of it. You can get yourself injured, go to jail, and get yourself sued. All because your ego wants to expose itself. If you can see trouble coming this far away then you can avoid it.


Fight to save your life, not to impress some apes in high school.

ridiculous.. are you 12? did he take your ice cream?

stay out of it.. if you know now that things are looking this way then avoid certain people and stay out of the situation that is the only 100% gauranteed self defense tactic that will work

Telling him to run is not going to upgradehis skill level. I thin k that is what he wanted. I think he wants defensive skills and not avoidance talks.

What if he cannot avoid?
What if they come for him?
What if they are training?
What if they don't think about running away?
What if they will bully him more and more until the fight happens?
