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

[bigfo0t]

If some dude bumrushes you, aiming to take you down, guide his head to your knee and crack him HARD.

GAME OVER.

Be sure to call an ambulance though, you may have just killed a guy.

YYYOOOOOOOOOOOO that dude is hilarious!

Did you see the vid of when they released the RB mccoy?

I noticed I screwed up I meant Your hands tend to hurt more when old

matters what one considers old. landing one of those and you wont have to worry about landing anymore shots.

You sound like you are talking about a schoolyard fight. People carry cellphones with a pack of wolves nearby, they carry pepper & bear spray, brass knuckles & knives. That doesn't include the people with guns. Getting into street fights is not the brightest move in today's world. Just stay out of trouble. You are lucky he didn't shank you. Heck if he got your plate number on your car if he is connected he could be coming to your house soon. This time with a gun....

[Cheek busting]

obviously you just found out how much strength matters.

It's not the end all - but it can definitely help - especially if in close quarters, and somebody with brute strength gets a hold of you.

Even if they don't know what they're doing regarding wrestling and grappling, they can still overpower you.

But technique will always beat brute strength... Basically, if you know what you're doing, it's your legs, hips, thigh, and core, against their arms.

A black guy in his thirties wearing black shoes, slacks, dress shirt, and tie heard me panicking and offered only advice to me and not help pulling the guy off me.

"Just whoop his ass, my man."

That's some solid corner advice right there

How much does being strong matter in a physical confrontation with a stranger? I'm talking about overall strength aka general strength.

I ask this because I got into a fight at the market moments ago with a short Mexican dude. He got disrespectfully close to me as I was paying for my groceries

"BACK OFF!" I told him loudly.

"Shut the **** up and pay for your ****," he barked.

At that moment I said **** the groceries.

"Back up, you idiot."

As soon as I uttered the word idiot, he pushed my shoulder, displacing me and causing me to stagger.

I quickly regained my balance and retaliated with a stronger push.

Before I could bring my hands back he rushed me, catching me off balance. He grabbed me with overwhelming force and was manhandling me even though he is only about 5'7 and I'm 6'0 barefoot, 6'1 with shoes on.

Instantly I knew I was in trouble. For a little dude he was really strong and energetic.

I got scared.

I felt like I was drowning.

My arms and body got tired from all the grappling.

I felt like I was going to be choked unconscious so I started screaming for help.

"HELP!"

"HELP!"

A black guy in his thirties wearing black shoes, slacks, dress shirt, and tie heard me panicking and offered only advice to me and not help pulling the guy off me.

"Just whoop his ass, my man."

The guy got tired and loosened his grip on me, so I instantly bucked out of his grasp and assumed a boxing stance. He expended a ton of energy trying to hold down and choke out a bigger man.

A second wind overcame me and revitalized me. I swarmed him and let my hands fly. Straight right hands, hooks, and uppercuts.

The tables have turned. I was coming on strong and connecting hard punches on his face, body, and back. With his face getting cut and bruising, he retreated.

I ditched my groceries and ran to my car.

I've been home for two hours now and am wondering how much strength comes into play in street fighting.

"i started yelling help! help!"

LMFAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
