what Martial art trains realistically for multiple attackers?
Thankyou

Mixed Martial Arts Forum

To be honest, none. Your best bet is to have a weapon yourself, run, or KTFO one of them and pray the rest don't jump in.

the only martial art that i've ever seen do multiple attacker scenarios at the same time is aikido. and there are no strikes in that art. it's all about redirection of energy and throwing your opponent. it's not an offensive martial art at all. and even with that training, they'll say to use it as a last resort if you can't escape first.

The best training for multiple attackers is Track and Field. But if you were like stuck in a room with 5 guys and had no choice I would say probably one of the kickboxing disceplines. Because with that you just need 1 good "lucky" kick to land and or partially land to knock someone out (Cro-cop style), then you just have 4 guys left to beat you up. But atleast while your lying in the hospital you can smaile and say to yourself and friends, I got one of them!

serously boxing is your best bet if uyou learn to hit hard and move, but realiostically if you are going against more than one opponent, even if they arent trained they are gonna hurt you

If you have a knife than you can fend off multiple attackers by slicing their arms as they reach or striek you. If you don't, then you need to grab some kind of weapon nearby such as a beer bottle, or some sort of stick, but then again you need to know how to use them. Your best thing to do is face the best exit with your back, hold them back, and then make a break for it. No matter what when you are attacked by multiple people, your best strategy is to run away.

Krav Maga, thats what it's designed for.

Thankyou for all replies they are appreciated!

never let the big guy last too long. a rule of thumb when facing multiple opponent is to hit the toughest or biggest person there with your best power shot as soon as it starts, to discourage the smaller weaker opponents. you dont wanna let a big guy last while you beat on the small fish. throwing guys off of you via shirt toss while you work over others while they get up off the ground is another way to control situations like this but u gotta be strong.

A really big Rule of Thumb also is "Once you throw that big shot" try and smother 1 guy and if possible pull him ontop of you with you having your back to the wall. I got jumped before and kinda used the guy as a shield. But the thing was I didnt have a wall to my back I had a car. One guy climbed up on the roof of the far and kicked me in the back of the head and almost dropped me if I wasn't holding on to the guy.

He could get any power shots on me because I was tight on him and most of the shots were glancing blows to the side of my face and sholders. After getting hit in the back of the head I lost all sense of orientation but luckly I didnt go to the ground because then that is REALLY DANGEROUS. I've seen guys go down on the ground then get stomped and kicked in the head and go into something looking like epileptic attacks.

Anyway it was a few minutes into the thing and some people said they called the cops and the guys just ran. I was lumped up in the side of my head but my face still looked pretty good with the exception of a small cut I got from a zipper on the guys jacket when he tried to punch me.

or the one wiht the biggest mouth, if one of them is talking and the rest are silent they probably think the sun shines out of his ass if you knock him out you must be VERY tough! lol

actually you should run through the exit!

No. This way you know there won't be anyone to interfere with your exit, and as they expect to engange, they will take their time most of the time, you strike back a step back, then turn and run in one motion. If you run towards the exit as your first thing, your done, one of the commentators will trip you or grab you, or something else will stop you like tripping over a chair or running into something. You need to commence the run on a clear head.

once again, this all depends on how many people are involved, and your positioning, and if its in or outdoors.

Kajukenbo is the best self defense style.

no good idea, good luck for Ukrine in World Cup2006

anyways it the best thing is to call the cops, they get to stay in jail for a while. dont use sharp thing you could really kill someone with it and you will blame yourself.

The law is here to protect you :)

As long as it's justified, slice em up.

krav maga and sambo...both are desigen to end a fight as quickly as possible and are brutal to boot

There is really no worse scenario than this. A few points to consider:

1. Do no try to fight everyone at the same time. If possible, attack the guys at the edge of the group and create angles by lining opponents up so that you don't end up fighting everyone at once.

2. Do not take the fight to the ground...at all cost. Grapplers may be able to beat strikers when on the ground 99% of the time but all it needs is one of his mates to stamp on your head and you're gone.

3. Striking and military cqc styles would do best. Look up military cqc styles like Gus Michalik of the Black Arts Society, Tom Schrenk and Dan Longtin of Bojuka, Carl Cestari's unarmed combat, some forms of Systema and Krav Maga etc.

Cheers guys
