Boxing is will not help you in a street fight.

[letsgobrady]

all you need is good takedown defense and thats it if a person can't take you to the ground and he can't beat you with the hands then it's over it's not that easy to take someone down most fights that end up like that are a bunch of people that don't know how to fight someone that actually knows how to fight is not going to let you take them down you can try but that doesn't mean that they will be succesful

[TheBlackSwifty]

A person whos boxed to an extent will find street fights easier than a person whos NEVER trained a martial arts in there life. Generally its true, a good street fighter/mma fighter will destroy a good boxer as boxers can't use feet, can't use heads, elbows etc and have to follow simple rules.

a good street fighter/mma fighter will not destroy a good boxer thats garbage, what u saying the boxer wont be able to land a punch ever?
I box but practice elbows and palm strikes too! if it goes to ground though its a different story, but in MMA u cant eye gouge or go for the balls either, and the second option is a very effective tactic if it goes to ground.

exactly what I was trying to say, street fights aren't fair. it usually ends up on the floor, gang ******, dirty tactics etc that a boxer in a fair fight with rules is used to.

True but a trained MMa guy or street fighter also can get f$%&d over when its not fair, dont matter how good u are

When you're in a street fight you want to have all the advantages, knowing how to properly throw punches and avoid his punches will certainly help you a whole bunch..

It's a ten second gif that just restarts over and over again.

Of course it will help you. Boxer punches are faster and more powerful. Most average Joe when they fight never aim at the chin. If a boxer get the first shots it and are pretty good. The fight is already over

This girl used a weapon in her street fight, but
the confidence, courage, and endurance that Boxing gave her was enough to stand up to a buglar ...

That is faulty logic. Street fights between two unskilled untrained people end up on the ground. Since most people are unskilled untrained people, that's how things usually go down.

Most untrained people can't punch for ****, and they don't react well to getting hit. They telegraph their punches, and are slow.

A boxer has the advantage because our punches are short, fast, hard, and accurate. We have been trained how to react when punches are being thrown at us, and we can usually end the street fight within the first few punches.

People like to pretend that all street fights a boxer would be in take place between a boxer and some skilled grappler. That's not how it works.

Its 4 on 1 so the 1 has the advantage

Are you ****ing retarted.
