what is your streetfighting wisdom

seeing that we have so many people into fighting here, id like to hear some of their secrets about streetfighting, both before and after the fight.

my wisdom:

1. never talk shit, you are just helping your opponent get adrenalized and giving him more time to throw the first punch.

2. never go chest to chest with a guy; he could headbutt your teeth out.

3. have your hands up in a non threatening manner, as if you are itching your head

Never start off as an ass-hole... you don't have far to go from there.

If they keep saying the same shit over and over again, they are not
thinking about dialogue... they are trying to set you up.

Finally, when you know its about to go down:

HIT FIRST...HIT HARD AND HIT A WHOLE LOT

ryu's fireballs are strong while ken's dragon punch is stronger

In every fight I've been in, I tried to throw the first punch. I agree with you on the not talking point. It takes a lot to get me upset so most of the time I don't say anything anyway. The biggest thing I learned was know your limits. In my younger days I was "gang related" and there were a couple of occassions when I should have run or back down from 4 to 6 guys and didn't.

your chucks are no match for my neon bow staff

Use a weapon when you have a chance. You can hit a guy a hell of a lot harder with an ashtray than just your fist. Also keep in mind that you will get hit and you will have to fight through the pain.

Carefully signal your friends to get ready to RNC the guy if he doesn't calm down.

"if against multiple attackers, put your back up against a corner so nobody gets behind you "

NO! I must respectfully disagree. Against multiple attackers the absolute key is to stay mobile. I have learned this through numerous simulated 2, 3 and 4 on one situations. If you get cornered or grabbed or stay put and fight, you're finished.

If you hit and run, even running in circles, it is damn hard for anyone to get you. If it is 2 or even 3 on one, then grabbing one guy and maneuvering him between you and the other(s) is also good.

Stay in one place for just a couple of seconds and the guy you don't see will knock your block off.

1) Being drunk and getting mad over stupid shit is a habit for men of low character

and

2) don't do it

I don't want to get arrested, sued or killed, therefore I choose to train to fight in a cage or ring and refrain from fighting in the street. Too much can go wrong.

Unless it was life or death, I would never attack the eyes. I'd opt for a hard, clean preemptive right to the jaw.

no talk

elbows, knees and chokes are my friend. I learned the hard way it's a bitch trying to end a fight with a couple of bones broke so bad they're almost sticking out of my hand/skin.

strike first, strike hard, no mercy sir!

Wear a helmet when you're bangin' and guard your brain.

Do what you gotta do.............

Never fight someone from a third world country.

"about 20 of the guys from the football and wrestling team were fucking with the football/wrestling coach and he challenged all of us to try him. he backed up into a corner, took his shoes off, and started swinging them like crazy and foaming at the mouth and nobody fucked with him."

LOL. Are you serious?

it's only a fair fight if I win

NowhereMan22000, I agree 100% with you.

Street fighting is all about doing whatever it takes to win the confrontation. It's more about training your mind not to get turned off about the very bad things you are about to do to your opponent.

Take the biggest guy and smash his knee....he'll drop like a stone....Dalton
