How many real life fights have you seen hit the ground?

All the time. Generally I stay away from environments where idiotic fights tend to break out but they hit the ground all the time. Usually if one guy punches another - he winds up on the ground. If he's not unconscious then wrestling usually ensues with most individuals that are unfamiliar with grappling going straight for a side headlock so they can punch the other one in the face. This is all a part of wrestling, grappling, and submissions.

 

Well if you count the ones that are broken up, I would say about 1/4, if you only count those that continue, closer to 3/4 (even if by knockdown)

Not sure I've ever seen one that didn't end up in a clinch.

Usually it goes big overhand right, if that hits (rare) the guy that got hit is either out or he runs straight at the other guy football style, if it misses the other guy throws his, if that misses it's usually a hockey fight type situation.

 

Not gonna see much technical anything in most bar fights; not like guys are out there doubling up on the jab and throwing a good left hook to the body and straight right hand.

 

Well yes, they have, in the same sense as they do now; they grab each other and fall to the ground because they are untrained. Why do you think so many shirts get ripped in street fights?

 

Pretty much agree, most people just are not technically skilled fighters, so you don't see fights in the style of two technically skilled fighters.

Training MMA could be seen as the best option because it's going to teach you to at least be comfortable in the widest variety of situations.

 

pretty dumb post. you aint seen a lot of fighting if you aint seen it hit the ground.

dont make me pull statistics out of my arse.

 

dude ive been a bouncer for ten years and seen more fights than i could posibly remember. But i can tell you that other than the ones that get broken up first they invariably end with one guy on the ground covering up and the other guy on top of him flailing at his head/elbows/hands. ALWAYS

 

ooops. re read. i agree. they do end up on the floor alot. tho not always. i seen a few broken jaws in my time too. lol.

 

I'm with you man. All the street fights I've been to, both fighters are standing up and if one goes down he gets 10 seconds to get up

 

true

 

if do guys who wrestled get into a fight it goes to the ground...if they are scared of getting hit it often goes to the ground....also if they are drunk and off balance it often goes to the ground.


also sometimes it goes to the ground when the fight has already been won standing up.

 

yea but i hardly count allot of that....in many causes the guy on top has dropped the others with punches.....and then he is on top of him finishing him off....

 

in some cases yes but generally its due more to shirtpulling/stumbling/wrestling.
