I got into a fight 2 hours ago. How important is strength in a street fight? boxing?

When you got pushed you should have punched him in the face. That would have ended the **** right there and then. If you don't know how to grapple then yes you will get out muscled. If you can't fight then learn to be a little bit more patient and how to speak to people. If you thought because dude was smaller then you that you had the fight in the bag you just learned the first lesson in street fighting. You better be glad you didn't come across someone that really knew how to fight or you would have been screaming for help from a hospital bed. Go practice "Please" and "Thank You" you will do a lot better in life.

Well, in a street fight, if you hit someones face with your bare hands, chances are you'll break your own hand--which is probably worse than some bruises.

If you happen to miss their face while letting your hands go(such as hitting an arm or something) within a tight window of time, you'll be susceptible to whatever maneuvers they'd like to pull.

I don't recommend boxing in a street fight. It's not even really actual fighting to be honest. It has its gentleman rules. A street fight doesn't necessarily hold standards as high as to boxing.

I got in 100's of street fights and I never threw a straight punch it would destroy your hands. right crosses and left hooks save your hands. I ripped tendons in both hands 3-4 times but mostly from ******ly punching walls

You just experienced how much strength can come into play with a strong little guy giving you so much trouble in a fight.

I agree with this. If the guy wasn't actually touching you in line then you shouldn't have yell at him. He was only going to be too close to you for a few seconds. He probably didn't mean any offense by standing close to you. Some people just stand close to the guy in front of them in line without even thinking about it. If I got into a fight every time someone stood very close to me in the checkout line then I would get into a fight every time I went shopping.

Hahaha, this can't be serious? if it is. Don't worry about strength, learn Judo

Prolly he was as heavy as you or heavier. We humans are truly insane hahaha We should not be putting our lives at risk for such simple shii1 but it happens. Felt bad for the mexican.

palm punching people to the nose is pretty much a fight ender. could be a life ender if done ''properly''. no one ever expects it.
