Can the best martial artists defeat 5 or more attackers at the same time?

    No, its impossible no matter how well your technique or skill is. You can not defend against 5 attackers at the same time simply pure fiction.

    It's not impossible at all. It would depend on many variables, environment, who's attacking and their intelligence, speed and strength but it's been done and documented many times.

    it is bs, unless the attackers have no idea how to fight, or are half the size of the person they are attacking. bruce lee is the biggest myth (not having to do with religion) going today.

    Mostly depends on the attackers. Against 5 guys who are willing to fight you.. It'd be tough (unless your a mountain of man that could throw them around like little children.. They going to get you down probably). Most of the time though if you have a group of guys, they are looking to the other one to initiate contact. So, you punch one, the other ones seriously don't want to fight you, are shook, and don't want none (you can watch several videos on youtube where 1 guy beats multiple guys.. Just look at how they are shook after the first punch usually).

    with 5 guys attacking 1 guy its so easy to be victorious in numbers if your even reasonably fit and trained.

    If your 5 puny weaklings not so.

    If your trained, You all get close, but just outside of the point of ENGANGING. Then the one attacking or getting attacked covers up while the other 4 guys rush to the one engaging defense.

    Its similar to what happens when 5 wild dogs attack a hyena, when 5 wolves attack a brown bear, when 5 hyenas attack a Lion.

    You give me 5 guys all in good shape and 1 top notch MMA fighter and I will give you 1 dead MMA fighter.

    The 5 dudes never WAIT to attack as in the movies.

    They all attack together within sequence and they put the boots, knees, elbows etc etc etc to the LONE fighter in sequence TIMED for one point, the point that the 1 MMA fighter commits to any of the 5 dudes.

    Could a experienced MMA fighter take 5 untrained fearfully confused dudes out alone?

    Yes for sure, no doubt.

    Could 5 well trained but non champion type fighters kick the living **** out of a champion MMA fighter if they fought with a game plan that was practiced for a weekend or two?

    Yes the 5 dudes that were well trained and had worked together as a team for a weekend or less could kick the living crap out of a champion MMA dude.

    5 dudes attacking in waves simply WAITING for the MMA dude to commit to attack 1 of their 5 would give the other 4 a free shot full force. Plus 1 or 2 could hang back a split second waiting to connect right after the MMA dude evaded the first incoming shots of 2 or 3 of the 5. It would be a nitemare if planned even a wee bit.

    Even if MMA guy starts off good, as soon as he gets kicked/elbowed in the back of the head at full force he becomes confused. Then when turning to show how he is not giving up and is not confused he gets kicked/elbowed in the back of the head by the other 2 to 3 dudes. Then the MMA guy realizes that the 5 dudes are all totally not against having 1 or 2 of them badly hurt provided it helps them paste the MMA guy in the process.


    Then the MMA dude realizes he is likely ****ed in ways he never trained for ever.

    Then the MMA guy attempts to deny this.

    However, while attempting to deny this he keeps getting kicked/elbowed/punched/kneed/choked/etc by the other 4 guys until a voice inside his mind tells him, "this is ****ed, I am taking huge blows to the back of my head! I feel dizzy and wait a second, I just took another huge blow to the back of my head, I need to turn around to face my attacker!!?"

    As the MMA guy is turning around and figuring out a solution however,

    He is answered by 2 or 3 of the 5 guys kicking/elbowing/etc him n the back of the head scrambling his mind only to have him turn to face his attackers and have 2 to 3 of the 5 guys kick/elbow/etc him in the back of the head while he attacks or defends himself.

    Then the 5 dudes ball gag the MMA fighter and basically take him on tour doing the hookie pookie in a carnival act if they want to.

    No doubt 1 or 2 of the 5 guys take some huge lumps. That was after all what was needed to distract the 1 MMA fighter so as the other 4 could kick/elbow/etc him in the back of the head full force.

    If anyone on ESB attempts to claim that this post is not totally on the money or discredit it in any way shape or form without giving it massive props I am going to round up 4 other guys and kick the living **** out of the back of your head.

    . its been done many times ? ,, yeah so what ???

    You want me to get 5 trained non champions to face you or your best individual fighter ???

    You would get your face smashed in, well more likely the back of your head smashed in.

    I would personally bet all of my ESB virtual money on the 5 dudes to smash the back of your head in.

    I would feel horribly guilty thereafter, i would be ashamed and go into a deep depression considering how i could of profited from betting my beliefs on the fact you or your champion would get the back of their head smashed in.

    However, my ESB virtual money account would increase significantly :good

    Well 5 on 1, you want to avoid the ground at all costs and disable them with strikes. So a boxer would have the best chance then a kickboxer. A mma fighter or wrestler or bjj fighter that would take it to the ground is going to get stomped by the 4 other guys.
