I grew up on the US side of the border and am Mexican American and it was like this as well. If a kid fell to the ground and the other was gonna take advantage everyone would stop the fight and let the other guy get back on his feet. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with the love of boxing as a sport. In US it is different, the fights end up on the ground very quickly. I think its a Mexican thing
Frank Bruno once trained with a Wing Chun master in Hing Kong who weighed 125 pounds. Bruno admitted later that he would get his ass kicked in a real fight by this little guy. Boxing is a sport, a few of the martial arts like Wing Chun, Jeet Kune Do, Hsing - I and others were developed for real fighting. Watch Emin Boztepe on youtube if you want to see someone who would beat every pro boxer in a street fight.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAA you have got to be kidding. You martial arts guys are all dillusional. A boxer would destroy that guy. I watched his videos! What a joke. I can't even find the words to describe what a joke that is. Watch the videos because seeing is believing. LOL:rofl atsch :roll: :?
The George guy is Jorge Masvidal. http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?FighterID=7688 Though he's never fought in the UFC, and isn't a huge name, he's a decent fighter. He's 12-2 overall and stopped Yves Edwards, who did come into the fight on a losing streak, last year. He also beat Joe Lauzon about three years ago. They are probably the most famous names on his resume. He's mixed in decent, but not great, company.
Thats something i like. Here at parties people always jump in and one takes you down and the other ones kick you. Its dirty fighting. I dont understand where the honor in that is.
Also, Jorge Masvidal is a member of a ATT which is a great MMA camp. The boxing coach there is none other than Howard Davis, Jr. Yes, Howard Davis, Jr. as in the Olympic gold medallist. http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=554&cat=boxer
I have seen and heard of fighters getting beat up in a street fight, but a guy that has had some punching experience, most of the time a guy who knows how to punch, like a fighter will win, a guy who throws a correct punch,down the pike can hit punch harder than a street brawler, but a good street fighter is like a cage fighter, can punch,kick, knee,elbow and bite, you can get a guy in a choke hold and lock your hands, you can stomp with your shoes on and you can pull a guy by the hair and punch,and knee or kick him in the balls, not your mark of queensbury rules....a good N.Y. street fighter in condition is a hard man to beat on a concrete sidewalk
