So does the escapist know how to fight?

When was the last time you had a fight?

Perhaps you are a martial artist?

or maybe you never had a fight in your life?

Feel free to share stories, techniques or tips.

Master martial artist here. Been through the wringer in tournament bouts, but never had to really pull anything out on the streets if that's what you're getting at. I'm more of a "let's have a beer and talk it over" kind of person.

I'm too weak to fight. I would need a weapon of some sort or I'm sure I'd get my ass kicked by just about anyone. Thankfully, I've never needed to fight someone and hopefully I never will. Atleast, not until I have access to beer bottles or something to smash over my opponent's head.

I can protect myself. I'm no master of combat, but I can hold my own.

I am awfully weak, but I've done plenty of karate, so i can get the technique right...

I used to take self defence classes, I don't any more.

Chances are I'll try to avoid any actual fighting, but if it comes down to it, then yes, I can fight.

No formal training, just strength, speed, a vicious streak and some good advice from my father on headbutts, eye gouges, knee kicks, ear biting, elbows, forearm smashes and so on. But I've only had to use it a few times since school, and, I must say, it decimated my opponents. In fairness, though, they were chavs.

I've got a couple years of street brawling experience. I dont have any official style I practice. I still do a bit of shadowboxing by myself, to help keep in shape, but the last time I was in an actual fight was a few years ago. Fighting is fun =D. It also helps to think about anatomy and where to strike to cripple your opponent. Knowing where to put a knife to disable someone is helpful too.

Nobody has ever pissed me off enough, though I doubt anybody is dumb enough to piss off 205 pounds of muscle. I am looking into studying Muay Thai though.

Thats a myth.

For egzample an untrained man with a knife can cause more damage to himself, then his opponent.

Unless his opponent is untrained too ofcourse.

Yes, I can fight. I used to do boxing for a few years, and am very good at it. Also, I am skilled at using swords, nunchucks, and a few kinds of fire arms. I enjoy a good fist fight, especially bar fights. 30 people beating the tar out of each other is always fun.

Learned Judo (shoulder throw all the way) and I can hit pretty hard. And "face meet knee" works too. But I rarely get into fights, because I always feel very bad after having one.
