Thread: How Do I Street Fight?

walk backwards for 3 seconds, then forward and punch

Kick them in their nuts.

I'm guessing you're from America. Street fighting seems different over there from what I've seen on the videos - it always seems to look something like a boxing match with headlocks and kicking!

But when I fight, I basically throw punches like a crazy person. I don't even bother with defence. Try putting a roll of coins in one hand - it hardens your fist by making sure that it will not give when you hit the other guy. It may sound pointless but it works and it works well.

The best places to aim your punches would be around the chin and jaw as well as the eye area.

Don't bother trying to learn any fancy moves, when it comes down to it and the adrenaline kicks in, all the fancy stuff goes out the window.

-Good luck!

I've never been in a fight before but if your the "good" guy and he is going to attack you in a group fight dirty . Also make sure you get the full weight of your body in the swing.

best advice: don't

second best advice: pretend to be talking to someone you know thats behind them. Then when they turn around go for then family jewls.

There's this chinese martial art (forget it's name, now) that has to do with redirecting an attackers movement around one pivotal point in their body

so you get someone charging at you
and you grab their wrist
you convert all the kinetic energy in their legs and arms and entire body
around their own wrist and they igo hurling off into the air

Like it's that simple? It sounds like he's the victim when he talks about "big football guys". It doesn't sound like he has a choice.

Go to some boxing/martial art lessons man. If you gotta fight a crowd you're gonna lose. If the other guy's bigger than you, you're probably gonna lose too...unless you know some kickass moves. There's probably a few gyms in your area and I bet each one gives the first lesson free... Sure you won't be Rocky after introductory lessons but it'll give you some confidence and experience.

That's a good point. A persons first fight is often their worst because they aren't prepared to take a punch and it puts them off throught the rest of the fight.

What happened anyway, why are these guys going to beat you up?

Thers no rules in street fighting, exept for one, do NOT kick the balls cos if you do that the guy will just want testicle based revenge.
If the guys got a baggy jacket pull it over his head and kicking it in , he cant hit back if he cant see.
and theres no kung foooo or matrial arts that can be learned fast enough to use in a fight after a week or something like that,just let the primitive ape part of the brain take over, stand wide grit your feet into the groudnd lean all your weight into punches and aim for the nose, if you breake that thiers not much the guy can do from thier.

umm, if there big do you mean gaint testosteron einfused muscular masses, or tall fat guys



either way, speed will do it


buid up som eendurance running


or, if fighting, go for sensitive areas such as kidneys and neck, but not the testes. never the testes.


if you happen to be knife fighting, which woudl be pretty serious, cut up their hand itll make them loose contorl. if you have the amazing fortune/misfortune to have multiple knives, have a large, intimidating shany knife in your non-domminant hand and a quick, maneuverable, sharp knife in your dominant.


good luck, and i hope it doesnt coem to knife fighting, but, you amy want to b eprotected. dont use a swiss army knife. they are not intimidating. use a folding knife that can be opened with a flick of a hand. also, bring a cell phone with you to call someone.

?????happy??? fighting?



also, if you get eh chance, you cna control combodies whole arm with a good grip on there thumb. try to grab it adn roll it backwards into a ball. if doen properly, this will bring anyone to their knees

here it is
well, Japanese / Chinese / whatever

That video is FUNNY!!!

I had another idea - get some boxing gloves and fight with a friend for practice but full contact, it'll hurt but won't do serious damage.

i can tell you one thing not to do: try and spear them. this happened at a party once.

my friend got into a fight and the kid tried to spear him. he got him in a head-lock and started hitting him in the faces. spears a defenately a no-no

spears??
where were you, the Amazon?

were there any blow-darts involved?

a spear is when you lower your head and charge the person as to hit their chest with your shoulder and take them to the ground. that way, your on top of them. making it easier to hit um.

and now that you mention it ya, after that someone blow darted the two of them to break up the fight.

excellent !!

a fight's just not a fight without some blow-darts

Start packing.

In all seriousness don't go "ape." You need to be more calm-headed than usual in those types of situations. Go for vitals and use their weight and momentum against them. Of course it doesn't sound like they are really that pissed off so any fighting should be avoidable.

Another point is that if you consider this "street fighting" then you're thinking the wrong way. If you think about it from the perspective of "self-defense" then its better because self-defense is unavoidable and unprovoked.

A swift low side-kick to the knee cap will end pretty much any fight before it starts.

Dude if you have to ask then I don't recomend you'd fight

Being left handed comes in hand here, if you can think of ti quick enough give em a left hook theyll NEVER see it coming, the last time i got in a fight the kid went down in one punch. Damn kids.

No you don't. Just drink loads and swing like a crazy person! Don't underestimate dead-legs if you have to get up-close and personal and don't forget headbutting - particularly effective when drunk

my favourite is grab them with one hand by the shoulder. Kick to the back of the knees so they lose their balance then quickly bring your hands clasped to gether and swing down onto the stomach. it's one of my faves
