You know before getting into bar fights was grand (the normal ones not guns and knife's and ****). Especially when you had years of boxing experience behind you. But you know nowadays, people know all kinds of ****. Especially like MMA and stuff, boxing great for in the ring,boxing's great for a bar fight,but once a fella takes a boxer to the ground or some **** like that, if you don't KO them before that your ****ed ha

^^^^ damn right, and it happens often enough.

friends, I'm going to be very brief, I'm a very calm and patient guy, boxing helps me a lot to relax. whenever I'm drinking in some pub in the city I get very violent after a few beers, I end up doing ****** things, the last time I fought with some guys who treated me rude to pick up the pickup from the front of his car I'm 37 years old and only mourning the amateur

Do not drink beer a great way. I have not been drinking alcohol for 8 years. I used to have the same problems as you.

So way back in the Military I would get in fights here and there. Regularly though. I wouldn't start them but if there was an opportunity I was all for it. It wasn't the alcohol necessarily but that certainly made my decision making a bit "more free". One day I woke up and my hands (and other parts) hurt and I thought "This is ******" and I made a few changes. First, I stopped going to places where I was a target. Me being a target meant in bars around the base where young Marines would want to impress their friends on a larger Army guy. Usually, it ended up where two bloody guys would end up having some beers, but it didn't always end up as "friendly" as that. Second, since I decided it wasn't fun anymore, I wasn't so quick to take advantage of a situation where I could toss some knuckles. And on and on.

In short, I matured a bit. I still LIKED to have a go, but I just didn't. Here and there it happened if someone needed protected, like my wife, etc. but overall I just put it aside.

Another thing that happened is that I got in a scuffle with an officer and of course me being enlisted I was the one who was punished. In lieu of formal action I was given the option of going to an on-base martial arts class. I thought that was a ****** idea at first but as I got into it the point of the class was not just to learn a martial art, but to connect with myself, learn how to be aware of situations, avoid them and on and on.

So .... straighten up. Avoid the triggers that put you where you don't want to be. If that means you don't drink then don't. If that means you can limit yourself to a few and that works, do that. If it means you don't go to certain places where there are people who give you the opportunity, then don't go there.

Become a people watcher. Study habits and tendencies. Study yourself as well. Get to know what you do and why. You are obviously doing some of this based on your first post.

I'd bet, that if you smoked one rather than drank a bunch, that you would #1) Feel great in the morning 2)don't care to fight those drunken tards 3) save yourself a ton of cash. And 4) still have a great time. You say that you box yet you're out there fightin' with the drunken tards. You are either a nothin' fighter who is trying to prove himself to his buds or you are just a psychopath. As a trained fighter what is to gain by beating up somebody that has no clue as to how to defend himself? Just sayin'. .….Rockin'
