Does "With pillows and baby oil" count as an answer?
I don't think that qualifies as "fighting" ;)


I didn't...misunderstand a double entendre there did I...


To answer your question...Sort of.

I've taken a bit of training and I can grapple and whatnot, plus I'm somewhat knowledgable on...forceably removing someone else's weapon.

I did some fencing, and freaked people out by being a lefty who was as agressive as a saberist in epee.

I took an hour-long crash course in Judo once. We learned how to fall properly and some basic holds. I've also noticed that when I get into actual fights, I tend to instinctively use stuff I've seen on TV (albiet simpler and realistic).

My brother's more one for fighting though. He's in the Air Force and learnt MSD (military self defence), which basically involves stealing someone's weapon and using it against them.

My dad taught me how to box and street fight.

I had 4 years of Tae-Kwon-Do, but then I hit puberty early and my body didn't mold out into the way it should be for it. I'm tall, but very stern and broad. Not very lean or agile. Top heavy as well as tail heavy.

So instead I took Judo, which I enjoy using every now and then.

I also self taught myself how to use basic knife and staff techniques, from guides and the such.

I am accurate with sidearms, and they'd all I would probably ever like to use.

Overall, I love fighting with bare hands. No gloves or anything.

I'd say I'm the best fighter in my circle of friends, as we have 'friendly matches' often. However there is one of my friends who we have never had a chance to have a match, and that saddens me because I feel it would be one Helluva fight.

I can't fight. Like, at all. I give my fists pretty good names, though, so I'm hoping that if I ever get into a situation where someone wants to fight me, that'll bail me out.

"Oh, you wanna fight, huh? Well, say hello to Bono and Sandra Day O'Connor!"

Boxing - year and a half, and continuing.
Judo - Just starting only had a few lessons.
Karate - 2 years when I was younger.

I've also had some experience with jujitsu and aikido.

I enjoy fighting tough opponents, but I dislike having to use my training outside the ring or dojo, if I can remove myself and others from that kind of situation I will.

I've learned it myself, so I have a fighting style of my own. It rest on the fact that I'm pretty heavy. Using my full weight against you... Oh dear. Pancakes anyone?

I have strong legs, but I can't aim that good when kicking. I do use my shoulders to charge at people and knock them away. Punching is not my best tactic, but I can counterattack by raising up my arms, absorb the attack and then punch at the joints.

I use a mix of Aikido and Kung Fu, which maybe some Tae Kwon Do kicks thrown in. I dunno, I've done a lot of stuff. I can also use pretty much any non-projectile weapon.

I did Taekwondo for little while however I had to drop it. Personally I think I can fight, both fairly or like a dirty street fighter. I don't have a particular style but If I had to name it I'd say a mix of light kick-boxing and just plain old brawling. However I have not been in a real fight recently so I might be rusty.

Just your basic down and dirty brawler. Never took any formal fighting classes, but growing up in the country is a tough thing to do. I prefer to take my opponent down to the ground and fight him there rather than the "boxing" style my friends use. Also I seem to have this stubborn streak where I won't give up. During one of my friend's "Fight Nights" I had the shit kicked out of me by someone who hockey fights alot, but nope I wouldn't stay down until I was knocked out. First day of work, a big black eye, and swollen face, what a first impression.

I have a pencil roughly 4inches long and I put it between my index and middle finger, rest it against my palm and stab motherfuckers. Never actually had to use luckily. Even more luckily I consider myself pretty brutal in a fight.
