If you are actively in boxing and going to the gym on the regular and sparring you are for one going to be more comfortable in a combative setting and most normal guys punches will seem really slow to you.....this is what has happened with me in the past, when I was a teenager.

You're likely to break your hands in a street fight. It has happens so much.

Hell yea. Most ******s in streetfights ain't expectin any real defense. Nobody throws body punches in streetfights. Nobody really throws combos in streetfights either. And it takes more time to swing a weapon than to just throw a punch, so it's easier to hit first or set to counter. Boxing mos def helps. But that's assumin you fightin a ****** man enuf to fight 1 on 1 wit no jump ins. And of course it's all fair game when it gets to the ground.

thats a good point, landing a power punch bare knuckled could well break ur hand..just ask iron mike (after he jumped greene)


do you really expect to be able to throw combos and body punches in a street fight? people would be kicking you or trying break you knees you cant just stand there and throw combos

[LeftHookTua Jr]

Definitely.

Positioning yourself in a god boxing stance alone will intimidate your average street fighter. Bobbing, weaving, using footwork will have them thinking twice about fighting you.

^This is all before you even throw your first punch.

A good stiff jab to the mouth will show them you're not all just trying to look like a boxer but you actually are one.

When they start throwing wild, wide hayemakers or inaccurate straight punches, just a few stiff jabs will have them wanting to go home and think about getting off the street and going back to school.

[Left2theliver]

depends on the situation...

If a guy wants to try and throw a punch at you...yes, boxing works! But so would BJJ, Judo, or anything like that...or all of them together.

But if there's more than 1 guy or weapons involved...theeeen I'd suggest not getting into trouble.
