"Mayweather's Style Wouldn't Work in a Street Fight"

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Boxing is not the best form of aggressive street-fighting to be honest.

While you may feel morally superior by adopting a boxing stance and unloading combinations the truth is that using your small fists to try and punch a head / face it extremely difficult.

Instead use the hardest parts (knees / elbows, head) of your body on the softest parts of your opponent (balls, eyes. stomach, throat) for striking.

Or learn judo / Jujitsu.

Be prepared to do whatever it takes to survive - eye gouging is very effective or chewing off an ear etc.

I can tell you'd be the kind of guy to go straight there.

That was beautiful.

Pull counter and dropped him onto a carrier bag full of his Tesco Value Lager.

That kid should have got up and let him do it again out of respect.

I always laugh at the line in that All Of The Lights song by Kanye West when he mentions the ****** University. But these kids were sent there and enrolled in a masters in the art of getting absolutely banjo'd and laid out by a fossil.

Not taking the piss like. Typically, we have all the hard men frequenting this thread. That old man would knock me smooth out too.

A Boxer can punch someone and the other person will go to sleep or end up in a coma. A Boxer will always win in a street fight.

Once again, people think boxing is so easy...First their would be NO gloves, and you wouldnt even be able to dodge a Floyd punch. People who practice dodging punches, and are watching for punches, cant avoid getting punched by Floyd. But you unathletic m0therf0kers think you can. Plus if you have a jab and keep jabing someone in the nose their eyes are gonna tear up when you break their nose. And when you got tears in your eyes, you are gonna get KO'd with your vision impaired. You guys have NEVER been in a street fight, + there are no weight classes in a street fight. Ortiz got ko'd and he gets hit for a living. You will be getting hit in the blink of an eye by someone who throws punches for a living. This shows without a doubt, some of you have no realistic point of view about fighting. You wont take too many punches from a professional boxer with no gloves on.

People seem to forget that Floyd's job is punching professional hardened world class fighters in the face. The dude will for sure knock you out if you stepped to him in the street.

But most adults don't weigh A buck fifty the little guys Floyd is use to fighting and a big guy is not going to be weight drained

[Chrismart]

When people talk about street fighting, then seem to assume everyone who gets into a fight is a trained fighter..like 'if a boxer ran into a MMA fighter.'

You guys must live in some tough neighbourhoods. In reality a street fight usually involves a lad on a stag-doo, who is dressed up as Super Mario, fighting a fat fella in chinos who has been on the pound a pint's all day in Wetherspoons.

If you end up in a fight with a fella who boxes at a gym..you're more than likely getting beat up.

Loved that video. The old guy's left is a thing of beauty

If you've been in/or witness a fair few street fights, then you'll know that there is always someone like Shane Mosley (a legendary lightweight), for example, would be knocking out mugs in all shapes and sizes on the street, no matter the weight differential.

Yeah this. And just because they fight at a certain weight obviously doesn't mean they walk around at that weight.

Anyway these dudes train and commit their entire professional lives to decking people and knocking f**kers the f**k out, even average and above junior-welters would have little problem flooring your average 180 pound couch potato walking down the street

[SlySlickSmooth]

mostly hear this from mma and bruce lee fanboys. idiots think they automatically have an advantage over boxers because they can tackle or kick them in the balls, as if boxers couldn't also do these trivial things, while a stiff jab from a boxer is usually enough to put them on their asses lol.

To be fair if you're just fast enough you've got a few shots with the kicks. You'll have the reach advantage and I don't think I'd want to get kicked by even a teenager with a purple belt in Tae Kwon Do.
