have you ever been in a fight before?
 

I see people always talk tough but don't really start swinging at each other, last time I was in a fight it was 7th grade and I don't even remember why.
have any of you been in a fight b4 and why

I didn't find myself in many situation when I was close to a fight since early school classes

Last time was when i was about 15, in a tube carriage coming back from a concert on a saturday night, group of kids just older got on and started giving it all the mouth. Then it all kicked off

Hehehe, going drinking in Iceland is a good way to get into a figh, specially if you are fairly big and too drunk and stupid to walk away from guys that get very strong when they drink :glugglug

Also got into a fight with some Skinheads over here in bcn, and once I got involved in a brawl in a English pub after Chelsea beat Leeds 3-2, scoring 2 goals in the last minutes, we couldn't help but taunt them a bit, they didn't like it :1orglaugh

yes, i grapple w/ some friends every wednesday night. it is basically simulated fighting. but a real fight w/ someone who really wanted to beat my ass....not in a very long time. (knock on wood).

I fought with my little brother when I was a kid, does that count? :Graucho

When I was in HS.... some girl was making fun of me in front of a bunch of people because I had a weight problem my senior year so I threw a drink in her face and then used my "weight problem" to kick her ass. (She was a stick). I don't condone fights, that was about 15 years ago. :2 cents:

I used to fight a lot before... but I was the opposite of the person described in the original post. I used to get in an argument with someone bigger then me, throw the hardest punch I could as soon as possible and give the guy a black eye and then just cover up and weave.. next day it looks like you killed him cause he's the one with the black eye and if anything you're shoulders/arms/skull are a little bruised. :glugglug

I use to when I had a hot head, and it is never worth it. It sucks.
Now, I am a lover not a fighter :winkwink:

Many hockey fights.


I'm scared to fight outside sports, mainly because I thnik I'd black out and kill someone, no use going to prison when you can simply walk away and have a cold shower.

no fights for me

use to? You always gota be prepared..i use to brawl a shitload and to be honest i miss it...If u rub me the wrong way..adult biz related or not dont expect me to come up and try and talk it out(unless its something really petty)..But if your a shit talker on the boards or not and we got beef then you better be watching your back all day cuz if I see you im not saying 2 words to you..just gonna drop you..:thumbsup

not since 8th grade

I won pretty much all the fights I was in where it was just me against one guy

I kinda miss it, but I'm 5' 9" and a lot of people are taller than me which makes it not fair

maybe I should start a fight club?

I'm a runner not a fighter :tongue:

The first and last time I picked up a fight was when the brother of an ex-girlfriend freaked out, started insulting me in a really ugly way...it ended with a gun pointed at my head and I got beaten up really bad...I learned from that, don't start fighting with a russian freak who spends half his life in the gym.

height and muscles have nothing to do with fighting...at all..Im alive right? Makes me a valid example. I use to fight all bigger guys..heres alittle secret for all of you..If your a big guy i feel bad for you when u pick on little guys cuz when u do pick on em you better be ready for a long scrap...Thats if most people can fight..Most are just shit talkers and dont do shit..My buddies who are big and can fight always go for the bigger person rather then the small..They know whats in store if they do find someone whos smaller who can throw blows :). Plus they have seen me :ak47:

Yes, once I had to kick ass as an adult. It didn't take long. Hint: if you're in my house shooting off your mouth about my personal business and I ask you to leave, leave.

good shit!

this thread makes me want to get back into Judo

haha ya it makes me want to just find the biggest dude and go at it..I can afford some more scars and stitches! My face is still way to pretty :winkwink:

I used to get into fights with natives a lot.. haven't in the past 5 years or so though. Made me feel badass since natives can't take a punch. :Graucho

how long did u take judo for?

I was in judo for 4 years and it was pretty fun.. I don't know why I quit

Saturday, in a BJJ tournament. I got armbarred.

Throwing punches, not since high school probably, but I've chased a few guys around bar parking lots in college.

4 years... I don't remember it much though

I have a lifetime membership to the National Judo Association and a bunch of videotapes somewhere demonstrating all the moves

all other things being equal, the big guy wins every time. Size matters a LOT in a fight.

the only problem with Judo is that you run out of things to do once you get the takedown :)

last memories of judo is being flipped on my ass by a huge black dude

buddy of mine used to do tae kwon do and some form of brazilian grappling, we used to go to the gym and he'd practice on me, but it teaches you how to fight, everyone need to know how to defend themselves if the situation arises

I've never fought all that much :glugglug

you must not of been in many fights...Only way u can say that is if the guy tries to bring u down to the ground to fight...But even then the little guy is quicker and gets out..This is on most cases of seen..Even little guys who cant fight and at least try still dont lose overwhelmingly..But iv never lost to anyone bigger then me..Iv had 1 good fight for 30 minutes that I could say was a draw..

lol

:1orglaugh

I scrap just about every day, for the last two years. I follow MMA and boxing.

You have a case of severe wishful thinking.

Don't get me wrong, I'm only 5'9 and I wish you were right lol but facts is facts, and big guys will kick your little ass pretty quickly if their skill level is even close to yours.

fight with the girlfriend everyday.

I am the oldest of 12 kids, 8 of them boys . . . . you tell me

lol u are a boxer huh? Let me ask u soemthing then..You out of everyone should know size means nothing..Since u are a boxer that is..I got buddies who box also and your thought mentality as a boxer is completly ass backwards...You are honestly one of the only people iv have ever talked to that actually fights either for a living or for fun to say what u said..So sorry to say man but your alone on that. People who have not been in a nice range of fights always have opinions that dont make sense...Reason for this is inexperience...But ill respect your thought process since i have never come across anyone who does physical fighting in any way say what u said to me..Size matters and bigger guys wint he majority.

why do you think they have weight classes in any martial art? How long would Marco Antonio Barrera last against Roy Jones Jr or Bernard Hopkins? How well would Genki Sudo do against Ricco Rodriguez? I'm not sure what info you're using to draw your conclusions from. If I'm rolling with a guy twice my weight with half my skills I have a serious problem on my hands. If I roll with someone 25 lbs lighter with an equal level of skill I'll handle him like a child. I know this because I do this every day. Everybody I know who trains takes this as a given, because we know it for a fact.

I'm not a boxer, I train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Gracie Academy. You should check into it, sounds like you might enjoy it.

your wrong... I am 5'9 150 and I win all the time unless they get in a lucky punch and I do mean lucky... I am 2nd deg black belt in Ju Jitsu and the bigger guy usually looses in my sport...

who do you train under? where's your school?
