Does boxing training stop you fighting on the street?

This is missing the point a bit haha but I bet you can still **** someones nose up if you throw a bare knuckled punch from one inch bang on the schnozz.

 

You can do that with the palm of your hand. In fact, every one inch punch demo could be replicated with an average joe holding out the palm of their hand one inch from the target and pushing it. It's bull ****.

Bruce Lee had the world believing he was the world's greatest fighter, without fighting a single person.

He had some legit athletic ability, coupled with an illusion of grandeur - or what some might call, narcissistic personality disorder.

 

So many reasons not to get into a bar fight:

* You can get arrested. Is it worth whatever you're fighting over?

* Let's say you beat up the guy, win the fight ... what if his friends are waiting outside after, or jump you later?

* What if he pulls a knife or a gun? What if he comes back later with one?

There was a time, I think, where most of the time if two guys agreed to "step outside," they'd fight and that was that. It was over and they probably went back inside and had a beer together, most of the time. These days, just pay attention to the news -- how many times does someone get killed because someone else felt "disrespected"?

And if none of those bad things happen, and you're a boxer, what if you break your hand? Is it worth being out for however long it takes to heal?

I just don't see the upside.

 

That's 100% true. The only time anyone gets into a street fight now days is if they are looking for it. There are a million ways to diffuse a fight that's brewing. Just be the bigger man and step away and say "hey, I don't want to fight." Nobodies going to break your ***** about it unless your hanging around with fuccheads then you should do society a favor and jump off a cliff.

 

Wasn't it you that was bragging in another thread about getting into street fights and beating up guys that were bigger than you? :huh

 

I did the exact opposite. Quit trying to start **** on forums.

 

Not really starting ****, just pointing out your hypocrisy.

 

Sure. I just always thought of it as him showing that you dont need much space to still do damage. Thats what I took away from it, bs or not, that part is at least true. Like u can inflict a solid amount of damage just by turning your elbow in and it travelling only a few inches. **** up someones face with a few of those shots pretty easily. can even knock him out if you land it on the chin, weve seen it in ufc before.

 

unbeatable on the cobbles me.

i always pick on much smaller men or children

 

You pig!!! :twisted: I never pick a fight with a smaller guy or kids....every fight ive had was against a woman of similar or larger size!

 

Would pay to see you fight Cris 'Cyborg' then. :rofl
