We could choose what we wanted though. From age 5 I have taken Tai Kwan Do, Sho To Kan, Riu Jitsu, Kempo, and I boxed through highschool since my dad was an accomplished boxer during his youth. I mastered none of the arts but I did each for a couple years and gained lot's of technique from each style. I excelled at boxing due to martial arts. I have been in many street fights as a result of confidence. I have only lost one fight where I was jumped by 7 blacks during a racial conflict in the military. I put two of them in the hospital before I took my licks. I have knocked out a couple of dudes with one punch. My father was a knockout artist as well as one of my uncles. Yea, an uncle, i know. He recently knocked out a 23 yr old loud mouth when he was 90! I'm 6'3" 220 lbs and i'm in shape. Older now though. Recently took a year of Krav Maga which I reccommend to non-fighter types. It's a relatively fast way to learn some defense. Nowadays I walk away from fights. I've gained inner peace in my older age (38) and see no point in injuring some jack ass just to make a point. But a couple years ago some black guy grabbed my wife's ass in a bar and out of anger i really hurt the guy. I didn't say a word to him, just attacked. I broke my hand on his jaw. Also broke his jaw. Knocked him out with one punch and sent him flying across a table. I walked over and stomped his face and chest in with all my strength. He will feel that event for the rest of his life. My advice: always strike with an open palm. Never punch someone's head with a closed fist. Only fight when it is in defense of yourself or someone else. Never fight to defend your ego. I regret every man i've injured because of a pissing match. But those who got physical in anyway deserved what they got. You draw the line as soon as they physically touch you. That's when you attack. Be quick as lightning and focus all of your power and you'll never lose. [/quote] Did it make you feel good stamping on someones head mr macho man? [/quote] wow did you not read his post, for serious fighters its not about ego. [/quote] I did not feel bad about stomping him. He shouldn't have touched my wife. Honestly, if people weren't around, I most likely would have killed him. [/quote] So you were ready to go to prison and wreck your life and your marriage over some dude grabbing your wife's ass? Would it have been worth it? Or were you NOT thinking at the time? :hmm: [/quote] Most fights are over pretty quick. This particular instance was an act of pure rage. Before the guy even hit the floor I was back on top of him. The whole ordeal was over before most people realized what happened. Probably 8 seconds and he was done. Keep in mind this was no pip squeak and he was most likely carrying a gun. Just some thug from the ghetto. I didn't jump up and down on him. They were well placed kicks. I knew my hand was broken, otherwise I would have beat him more. One of the first lessons I learned in fighting, real life street fighting, is if you put the guy down, make sure he stays down. Make it hurt. It sounds bad to somebody who's never been there but you have to remember that it must be assumed that a street fight is to the death. This isn't the 1940's where there's an honor system. Given the opportunity that low life would have done the same to me. Besides, he assaulted my wife. As far as going to jail? Wasn't worried about it because my standards are clearly defined in my head. Had he never laid a finger on my woman, nothing would have happened. But the second he touched her in that manner constituted physical assault which he was charged with in the hospital. I got a charge to but my lawyer got it dropped. But it gave me the legal right to defend her. [/quote] one of my martial arts mentors always said the same thing. Make sure they STAY down, never know what idiot will get back up and go to his car to get a gun or knife. many good people are now pushing up daisies because they let up on their attacker. [/quote] All respect for human life has gone out the window, it's kill or be killed now unfortunately. I can't tell you how many times I had a really good fight w/ someone and bought them a beer when it was over, a cpl of those times led to lifelong friendships, the days of real men are over, sad really.

I think it's time to get a consensus of just what kind of men we have here.
Have you ever knocked anybody out?
What's the hardest you've ever been hit and stood standing?
have you practiced any sort of fighting discipline and if so how much success have you had with it.
thanks
