most effective street fighting style?

[Sagacious Lu]

I say No to drugs daily...however the damn things are BAD...and they dont always listen

Damn I know how that goes; this guy Evan Williams and his buddy Johnny Walker have been talking a lot of smack all week and they just won't take no for an answer this weekend. The early predictions are that I'll go the distance but lose by decision to a vicious Pound & Ground offense

You may need meds. I suggest you talk to an APRN, Psychiatrist, or your general practitioner about putting you on strattera (non-stimulant ADHD medication, technically, an SNRI or Selective Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor) or some sort of benzodiazepine type drug for your anxiety and hyperactive problems.

Perhaps you might benefit from an english class also.

just some thoughts.

I feel that if I were to ask ten average americans how to do an arm bar, they'd do it horribly, but they would try to make it look like what they see on the UFC.

I bet ten average Americans have no clue what an armbar is.

[Britt]

That's why I had to quit watching UFC at my local bar. Somebody would be yelling out "yeah, he's getting an armbar! Armbar him!" And I'd think "What the hell are you talking about? He's got a rear naked choke, for God's sake!"

By the way, as long as we're bumping the thread:

kajukenbo is also another decent street oriented martial art that includes fighting in all ranges as well as weapons and multiple opponents. alot of people dont know much about kajukenbo, but it was developed and tested on the street, for the street.

Straight up, brother!

Why the heck you guys doing so much street fighting?

[Garland]

Why the heck you guys doing so much street fighting?

because we're cool. Like...p'sha. Duh.

Don't make me throw my shoes at you.

[bigred389]

Fair enough. It'd be an interesting wager...

I'd say it depends on your definition of "average."

Where I'm at...I'd say maybe 2% of people are at all knowledgable about the UFC.

I heard people say "karate kick!" when they were showing the Gonzaga Crocop replay on ESPN.

[danzig]

muay thai, hands down out the door, is the best. one of the few superior martial arts out there that anyone can learn.

Alex Gong might differ when it comes to real life street fights....

Didn't recognize the name, so I googled him. That's a sad story.

Gives credence to the old saying "walk away and live to fight another day"

Gives credence to the old saying "walk away and live to fight another day"

Good stuff.

Gong could have just as easily gotten the license plate of the fleeing vehicle, filed a police report and reported the accident to his insurance co.
