Were you ever in a physical fight with someone?

So what was the cause of it, did you win, did you end up in the hospital, how did it happen?

Me personally I have never been in a fight, I'm not the type a guy that goes around looking to start shit, I like things calm and peaceful :)

Never a full on fight.

In fact I've only ever punched a kid (with intent to hurt) once in my life.

I've been kicked in the head once (like grade 4 or some shit) and punched to the face once (like grade 7 maybe).

I don't tend to get into conflicts. 

Yes many times.

I never start fights, but I don't back down from bullies or assholes either.

I've also never lost.

Being a poor white kid who moved a lot and went to new schools every other year or so and usually living in inner city schools where I am the minority, I had plenty of resistance at first and many taunters.

Usually it took one fight where I would stomp on some guy and/or seeing that I can play football/basketball/run track/etc for me to get respected.

These were all fights while in Kinder through High school. I have had one fight outside of school that was at a friends New Year's party. Basically, we had a fun house party going and I brought my older cousin, his girlfriend, and his 15 year old brother.

This other high shcooler party across the street (it was a small neighborhood) ended and a few of these older kids came over to the house where we were at. One kid was about 6'2" and a full on beast of a young man. He came over with a few buddies for only one real purpose, to start a fight. As he was passing through the kitchen he shoulder slammed my 15 year old cousin who was easily half his size in every way and proceeded to stare him down. I immediately moved between them and shoved goliath back saying "what the fuck is wrong with you, step up to someone your own size!" Granted, I'm 5'10" and while I was not overweight, like now, I was no where near his physical size.

My friend, the house owner, also stepped in and told him to calm down if he intended on staying at the party. They guy smiled and backed down and he and his friends walked out to the back yard. There they huddled in a circle obviously talking about us. We immediately said to each other that they need to leave as they will only start trouble. So, one friend immediately said ok, I'll tell them and walked over to their circle. We couldn't hear, but he said he told them they needed to leave and goliath said FU... that's when we saw my buddy just hit the guy in the jaw causing him to step back a bit. Then the fight was on. (found out later that Goliath called this guy a pussy when he walked over to their party just to check out the 17/18 year old chics, so he kinda wanted to hit him anyways)

That friend and a few others of mine all started fighting these other kids and immediately Goliath is charging me like a rhino. He lunges with a punch that I dodge and he hits the wall behind me. I step back and he punches again missing as I duck, this time I shove him away from the patio to a 4' high wall that had a 6' drop on the other side to a lower house. As I do this he grabs me in a head lock and I start wailing on his nuts like they are a pinata. After about the 5 or 6 hit I feel his body loosen up, probably too much pain and lost all strength. I start to pick him up to throw him over the wall when one of my other buddies throws him on the ground. Obviously thinking I was in trouble, little did he know. I then jumped on goliath and proceeded to beat the shit out of his head a few times. I then stopped as he was out and bloody.

Two of his buddies came over and basically dragged him away. Brawl pretty much ended them with all of his friends leaving while shouting threats.

That was the last physical confrontation I had about .. man, well over 10 years ago in my early 20's. Had some great sex that night too. Wife was all crazy about seeing me in action lol.

Busted his nose, I was 10, he was 11 and it was glorious. 

I broke my arm in a fight at a friends party. I was 16, he was taller, after a bit of a scuffle, he punched me in the shoulder, I was shocked and fell back, my arm was behind me and I fell on it. I broke my wrist, it hurt, but I didn't go to the doctor for three days. 

I've had a few scuffles around school, I rarely ever start the fights, but my friends were all Greek and Italian and fighting was second nature to them. I was usually peer pressured into the fights, I didn't want to be left out.

I hadn't been in a physical fight for like 3 years and then last year, my cousin pulled out a lighter and was scaring my dog, a few words were thrown and then we started shoving each other and then it all went crazy. I'm ok with him now, but if he every touches my dog again, I'll kill him.

No. If I'd ever get into a fight I'd probably end up dead (I'd wish I opwned a gun then ).

Alot in  middle school. Funny thing though, later on their lives went to shit.

I wonder who called in that one of them had pot on them, who was then sent away forever. I wonder who started the rumor that the other guy had f*cked a chicken. I wonder who convinced the last guy to drop out.

Revenge is for losers, I fucking destroy lives.

i've been to in too many...so I'll tell my most memorable

it was my junior year and highschool and there was this sophmore kid(though he was big for his age) acting like an ass in the cafeteria , I remembered him because we actually went to the same elementary school. so he decided to throw a milk carton and it ended up hitting me, enraged I threw what was left back him. As I went to clean myself off(not trying to start a fight) he runs at me and smashes a soda can at the back of my head(though it was empty) now I was on full rage; as he tried to run I grabbed his bookbag yank him back and punched him right in the face...

before I go into the story I'll give you some chcacteristics:

Myself: 6'3 200(plus) pounds, played football

enemy: 6'1 around 200 pounds, played basketball

then we were just exchange blows until I lifted him up and slammed him though a table, now on top I repeatedly punched him in the head, until the security guards grabbed ahold on me and then he got up and kicked me at the shin and managed to punch me in the face, even more enraged I manage to break off the 3 security guards holding me and charged at him, he threw on nearby chair at me and it hit me in the face but I still tackled him. both of us exchanged blows on the grown until a legion of security guards dropped on top of us. during the melee of attacks I accidentally elbowed the assisstant princapal(what the hell was he doing trying to stop the fight?)

end result we both got suspended for 10 days

my injuries: cut on the forehead from the thrown chair, a bruised cheek, and a bruised shin bone

his injuries, broken nose, broken jaw, busted lip, and broken arm(though that was from the security guards jumping on us

there was alot of blood on the ground...I'm still surprised I wasn't expelled!!!

Yes a few times, the last time this girl liked me but I didn't know that untill a kid started a fight with me in a poolclub.. He was jealous and told me I should back off... Well happy sarcastic me made some jokes like: "aren't you like her kid brother?  that's nasty" so he came full swinging with his poolstick. he hit me on my arm, and I dodged his second swing, punched 2 times just below his ribs, punched all his air out of him, swept his left leg, and while he was falling in midair, putted my hand behind his head and used my knee to hit his face.. I broke his nose and he was out.. I still can't believe that the girl didn't say to him I'm trained in Martial Arts.. then his friends started to attack me, so my friends jumped in and we had a free for all.. In the end I got arrested and spent a few hours in jail to "cool off"no charges where made so I got free.. then I went to the girl and we.. "talked" >_> <_<

I've been in a couple. I've never started them. I haven't actually been in a fight for these past few years. But the last one I remember ...

I was making my way to school. I was dribbling a basketball while bumping music. It was a usual day. I said hi to my neighbours, dapped my boys, and rapping out loud. I do these everday. I walked past the convience store and right up ahead was the ball court. I wanted to take a few shots. I was already late. So I stuffed my iPod into my bag and started shooting some J's. I see this guy walking toward me. He is usually there when I ball with other people so I didn't expect nothing from him. He approaches me and says " What do you have in your bag ? " I was confused as to why he would ask. Still didn't expect anything suspicious. I told him that my school work was in there. He didn't believe me. He asked me to check what I had. And then that's when it hit me. I told him that I had to get going or I would be late. I rebounded the missed shot and made my way toward my bag. As I was about to put on my bag he shoved me. He was demanding to check my bag. I told him to fuck off. And he shoved me again. I shoved him back and as soon as you know it punches start flying. I was the bigger and stronger guy. I don't know why on earth he would try to rob me. I started swinging hard. Once he hit the pavement I dipped.

Technically, no. But I have to get physical with aggressive patrons sometimes at work, it happens every other month or so (a lot more often it other places I've worked) so after 7 years I've been in a whole lot of physical confrontations.

You learn tricks here and there to subdue and overpower drunk people, the real problem is with those high on amphetamines or similar drugs that feel no pain and are virtually unstoppable. Of course, it should also be mentioned that I stand 6'5" and weigh in at around 290 pounds and I have some training in BJJ as well as some basic Krav Maga and Sambo moves. If all else fails, apply strength, being a powerlifter also helps!

Its different for me though, in a normal one on-one fight you want to take your opponent down by any means necessary, but when I'm wearing my uniform and card I have to consider legal consequences and possible damage as well as the image of the bar/club. Overpowering is the name of the game, get them to the ground and gain control of one or more limbs or the head and force them to submit. We rarely use handcuffs though, only when they refuse to calm down and need public transport by way of the police.
