      I'm a short, fat, weak, middle-aged woman who's just started boxing... if I got into a worst-case-scenario, I'd opt for the headbutt- it'd leave my hands free if he grabs me by the head if it failed, and allowing me an out to try something else; but if it succeeds, he's blinded from the pain, teary-eyed at least, and possibly bloodied, and *blinded* is more important to me than taking him down. I'm weak: if I knock him down, he'll just get right back up again IF he goes down at all, but if he can't see where I ran, i have the chance to get away and call for help.

    Thank you for the lesson. As a person who grew up in a bad noighbourhood, 80% of attacks happened when there were more guys than you and maybe you and your friends (most likely you are alone). BJJ or wrestling may be great when you are 1vs1, but it doesn't happen that way on the streets. I agree that most of the time it's better to just use diplomacy, just let them say whatever shit they have to say or run, but sometimes they start touching your friend or GF anyway and you have to fight and boxing is the only real way to defend them, because it's one of the only martial arts that teaches you how to attack and disable quickly, instead of defending against strikes, or wrestle a guy on the ground, while other guys punch your skull into the concrete, or your friend.

I see it as a blessing & been able to deal with a few sticky situations before they escalated ..

I beat them in a very rough unorthodox manner. I had their collar in one hand, and was hitting their face with my other hand. This is a very brief summary of the conflict, but they had struck me first. It was more complex than this. The other person was a troublemaker all day long.

    Hi, Tony! From someone that’s been in a lot of street fights, I would only recommend the “disguised guard” and the hook. An open palm slap and a solar plexus hit are hard skill shots. Most people would miss and give the agressor to come with other attacks. Best thing to do it’s try to avoid the fight and if it’s not possible, be the most agressive possible in the shorter amount of time and than getting out there.

    • @kazzykaioken8873
      @kazzykaioken8873 Год назад +13

      Yeah all that open hand palm stuff is only for fights you are confident you can win like against a smaller opponent, so it defeats the purpose of this video ss that isnt a 'bully' bullys typically are stronger than you. I been in a bunch of streetfights and a muay thai teep kick has literally saved my life at least twice its even effective against guys with knives, but for beginners yeah headbutt or right hook and escape is solid advice

In situations where there's a more substantial height difference (making the head butt difficult) the disguised guard followed by a straight, quick stabbing punch to the adam's apple is fast, and being that its coming straight instead of a hook increases the hit probability since its hard to read a shot coming straight on, between their arms and at the bottom of their field of vision. Even though a lot of people may practice, most people telegraph their hook. Somebody who knows his stuff will more than likely block, step back, or roll past the shot. I would also dismiss the whole notion that these shots need to be following honest, clean targets. Just a little bit of practice keeping the hands up while you load up a knee stomp pays a lot of dividends, especially to somebody who is all squared up.

    Boxing is perfect for self defense. All fights usually start standing up and throwing punches (boxing). Boxing teaches head movement, foot work, how to throw punches/combos, how to take a punch, and the fitness aspect to it. Maybe a little wrestling or jiu jitsu mixed as well.

    when I was a lot younger (now 68) I started off with judo, then shotokan karate, taekwondo, chi gong, aikido (3 styles) kempo, shukokai karate - and ended up doing shukokai (quite useful) and aikido 15yrs - but TBH I wish that someone had just told me to go Boxing. If its for self defence only, then I reckon BOXING is it & second would be any full-contact karate like shotokan or shukokai - because it gets you used to being knocked about, punched, kicked hard etc. It teaches you what a punch to the face feels like !
    You dont want to be learning that for the first time on the street.

    Thanks Tony. I like simplicity. Put the bully down then walk/run away. What do you think about a kick to the opponents knee? I am talking more of a downward stamping action hitting the top of the knee with the heel/arch of my foot. I did Tae Kwon Do many years ago (I'm 65). I always thought the advantage of a kick to the knee is one can walk away because the 'bully' can no longer walk.

    • @Kmasse8
      @Kmasse8 Год назад +7

      Stamping the knee is very difficult to a moving object. You miss by a little and you might sprain your own ankle instead. You dont need to kick the knee to end a fight. It would be way easier to kick the balls or hit the solar plexus like Tony suggests here.

    • @garnetstewart3461

      A kick to the knee that drives the knee back in an unnatural direction can be very effective. You have to quickly place your weight on your other leg to surprise the opponent and deliver a blow that takes temporairly, greatly reduces the effectiveness
      of one of their legs. As you say, you can even simply walk away.

    Grateful for the pointers, friend. I agree that AVOIDING a physical confrontation is best. Keeping one's distance from shady-looking situations is best. Personally, my first decision if confronted is, "what will it take to stop this threat?" I carry OC spray, a subcompact 10mm pistol, and a survival pen. However, it is certainly wise to put as many tools in our toolboxes as we can. Stopping an attacker with a pocket cannon can lead to legal complications, even if justifiable.

      At the very least, your body must know what it feels like to deliver strong punches, as well as know what it feels like getting hit, slammed into, kicked, etc. Heavy sparring with full gear is good but lighter sparring with minimal gear is essential for many reasons too. Spend lots of time doing a wide variety of elbow attacks against pads too, as elbows damage things while preserving your hands. The sparring with light gear lets contacts sting, which is good, as it reinforces the instincts to avoid being hit by using dodging, parrying, and footwork in combination with timing and distance management,etc

      @edntz Год назад +2

      I'm not Tony, but you can still learn a lot in a spar without headshots. That said, purely boxing speaking, it's pretty suboptimal. Because you and every opponent will protect their body at all times. So it's nearly impossible to get clean shots in. The whole head body tactics, the feints, the whole keeping your guard up to protect your face. The whole bob and weave, all of that gets neglected. So you can't really learn boxing that way, and if you do end up in a real fight, then you don't have much experience defending against head punches, because on the street there are no rules. Still boxing is great and if you train properly, you'll learn footwork, how to throw punches, cardio etc. So it's better than nothing.

    I agree with everything you said. Especially of avoiding the fight. Never worth it escalating. Stay calm and you have a clearer head.
    You touched on this, but have to reiterate how important it is to learn HOW to do these. Even the slap point is good, but people need to learn how to do it and train for it. I am a little over 6 feet. 200 lbs. Mostly beer belly. I am ok with that ;-)
    But I know how to hold my arm, push off the ground with my foot, turn my hips and body the right way. Your video on how to throw a punch is great for similar information on the punch.
    Just practice some of these basics for 5 minutes a day exactly how your videos show and you'll improve if you have not had the training. Practice one move for 5 minutes a day and you'll be better than someone who practices 10 moves for 30 minutes a day.
    Just want to say I think properly practicing these is the key. Not just knowing what to do, but making it so it is instinct. That instinct and muscle memory is what gets you through the stress of an attack.

    1. Using open hands leaves you many more options than closing your fist at start. You could still go for a punch, you could throw him off balance and do a judo technique, or palm slap him.
    2. The step back and counter approach could look much better, legally, because he is aggressing into your personal space. Considering you might be on camera or witnesses are around. Saved me from a lawsuit once: Clearly was being aggressively approached by a angry failed pick pocket. Although a preemptive strike may be justified sometimes, or even unavoidable. But don't ever let it come to this "Eskimo nose kissing" situation. You can't even see opponent's hands there, or might catch a quick elbow!
