Best in a street fight?

[No1]

I was thinking what do you think is more effective in a street fight. Either a tyson approach where you get in close and attempt to take there head of with powerful hooks or to box where u jab and throw straight punches. Please comment from experiance.
I personally think it varys if your fighting a short stocky person i try to keep my distance and take them apart but if your fighting a taller person than you i think getting in close is beter as it only takes one punch to finish it.

i've never come up against someone on the street who could actually fight...usually a few short punches are all you need, like a jab, then str8 followed by a short sharp uppercut

most people who can fight are humble and know they can throw down....they dont need to go around getting into fights to prove themselves, which is why the ones with the big mouths usually end up in hospital.

i dont hang around bars or drink, but i`m guessing these people are the easiest to fight.

Most fights normally go to the ground so if you are a boxer i would say keep your distance and throw.

if in a wide open area, it benefits the person using longer straight shots because they can keep backing up and hit you coming in.

in a barroom, no doubt the inside fighter will prevail.

most fights you see do goto the ground (talking normal average joes) because a guy gets hit, and the other guy cant really hit hard enough to knock him out, so he's sorta in between dazed and pissed, so he tackles the other guy and there u have it.

i bet the thread starter is like 16 not ripping on you im just psychic like that.

a poke in the eye will usually do it

or a kick to the balls

Stay on the outside and pick him apart with jabs and rights... If they try to tackle, a hard uppercut will make them think twice about it..

in a real live street fight if you're using your fists you're a fool. and if you go to the ground you're playing Russian roulette because the guy you're fighting could have his boys near by who would stomp your head flat. if you use your fists you are highly likely to break, dislocate, or sprain something, and if that happens to one of your hands, you might as well chop off your arm because it's useless. the pain is so much that even using it for defending or blocking is going to be excruciating.

in a real life fight(street fight) your weapons should be an edge of hand blow, tiger claw palm strike, elbows, knees, stomping with your feet, various front kicks(whip kick, side kick, pivot kick) and finger darts.

using boxing in a real life street fight is very risky and very limited, even world class fighters who are trained even when they wrap their hands still bust their hands from time to time. so if you aren't trained like that or even if you are trained like that, it's a huge risk when your life is on the line to use your fists, because in a real street fight your life is on the line and you can' afford to get hurt.

like someone else said, it's a street fight with no rules, finger dart him in the eyes, kick him in the ****, chop him in the back of the neck, get him on the ground and stomp'em flat, make sure they aint going to get up and try to fight anymore, and never turn your back on them thinking it's over...................................
