I'm more of a person who will usually wait until the first punch is thrown for an opening and then hit you as hard as I can, or grab the thrown fist, drag the guy in, and then put him to the ground through use of a pressure point or a throw. This is why I chose martial arts, as the 3 years of the training has instilled a self defense reflex in me. I have only thrown first punches when I'm really mad, which has been about twice. I can usually intimidate my way out of a fight, as I'm pretty big. I'd rather do that than hurt someone, but you can only do so much. If all else fails though, I pick up the nearest object and use it as a weapon to inflict as much damage as I can. All else won't fail again if I make the person afraid the first time...unless they come back with a bunch of other people:help:

I'm the only punching bag...actually I haven't gotten in any fights outside my family. The last one was about 8 years ago and my sister and I were half-fighting, not seriously, until she grabbed my chest (female equivalent of going for the balls) so I smacked her across the face and left a welt.

Actually now that I'm thinking of it, I did hit someone back in 10th grade. I was at a swim meet, I barely even knew the guy (he was a freshman from a different school) and he grabbed my ass. I told him, "Just wait, I'll get you." And then a week later I saw him at the pool and slapped him on the cheek, he had a handprint for a few hours.

Oh, and then in 10th grade, some guy kissed me on a swim trip, (he was so bad I thought I was gay!!) and found out the next day he had a girlfriend. I ran into him at the swimming pool, he was straddling a stair railing talking to some guys and I pushed him down the stairs. He was scrambling fast to keep his hands under him, but no injuries. We ended up somewhat of friends later.

I know, if I was a guy I probably would've and should've gotten my ass kicked. I doubt I could defend myself in a real fight. You know how the movie cliche is that in a panic situation, everything goes into slow motion??? Not with me. Everything speeds up and I just get dizzy and confused. I'm worthless in emergencies.

I've always found that my size keeps me out of trouble.

The only time I have ever been in a fight,it was because I wanted to.And even that wasn't really a fight,more of a 'one good punch and walk away' sort of thing.

My, I never saw you as that type of person :hehehe: But hey, I guess they got what was coming to them.

Myself, I have dabbled in boxing, martial arts, wrestling, and a combination of all 3 in amateur ultimate fighting. My thoughts are, don't fight unless you absolutely have to, this means don't go starting fights, and run away if you have to. If you do have to fight, fight to kill them. It doesn't matter what sort of size or skill difference there is, if they're fighting to knock you out, and you're fighting to kill them, you're going to win. It's self defence in the eyes of the law as well.

Fighting is for stupid people, be smart

Ditto; survive or die:bandit: I'm left-handed as well! I had to learn a few wrestling moves because my larger cousins used to put me in holds and make me get out of them as best as I could so survival fighting it is for me. :grey:

I fight dirty. If someone wants to start crap with me, they better be prepared to deal with me.

Well I have to tell you guys- I don't like fighting- I can defend myself- and in most cases successfully- I am for the area below the eye and left of the eye if ever- and then push them down and walk away

Never really had a reason to fight i can get along with anyone but i know i can fight
last time something that almost caused a fight was 2 or so years ago the guy kept runnin his mouth,then i told him what i would do to him
looked him right in the face and he backed away
it was funny i was gonna beat the living shit right out of him in front of his mom
but mostly people never try to start shit with me
i dunno why i am a pretty docile person(to lazy to fight)
but i think my size scares people since i completely dwarf all my friends when compared to them
