run up with a flying headbutt he won't expect that, but really you should never take advice about a fight fr a bunch of video game nerds on a forum, I've only been in one fight in my life and happend to pick said fight with a martial arts kid who dropped me in three shots, coming to think of it you coulnt even really call it a fight, i was left with quite a red face in front of the school.

Normally I'd agree with you, but you shouldn't generalize so much. For example, I do fighting sports since I am six years old

What combat sports do u do? I did kung fu as a kid, then in middle school I started boxing and wrestling, after high school I added jiu jitsu and kicboxing then started focusing on mma. Ive taken this year off of training due to movinh across the country for my job, getting married and having my first kid, yup busy year lol ive gained 30 pounds since I stopped training im undecided if I want to pursue this and try my luck as a pro or just leave it as a hobby 

I do European Wrestling and Judo, thinking about adding Jiu-Jutsu to the mix. I've thankfully not gotten into many fights thus far, but it's amazing what advantage you have...after you kicked your opponent in the balls :D



Just don't be a idiot and fight. I've never lost a fight (had several over the years) but I've never instigated the fight and always tried to leave my opponent a way to back down without losing too much face. I did once get headbutted by some moron (he was mid 30's and I was 18 at the time) which I just walked away from as he had about 5 of his mates around him (yeah, real hard man). Fighting will not solve the route cause of the problem and ultimately can lead to things escalating (like some nob head 30 year old having his car tyres slashed for instance).

I highly doubt the ex will have the balls to follow up his threat by the way. Never fear the ones who mouth off, it's the doers you have to really worry about.



bring some friends and have them hold him for you while you punch him



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

My advice to you is: do not ask for fighting advice on a gamer forum ;p



If you are losing and all else fails, scream like a girl and piss and shit yourdelfy. One of those will get him off you.. :P

Since it seems like you have little choice but to fight then my only advice to winning the fight is to not back down. If he is hitting you really hard in the face just hit him harder in the face. One of you will eventually give up and that person should be him for starting the fight. While he is fighting you, if he detects even for a moment that you are fighting to kill ( but you would not be) then he will give up.



1) Don't throw kicks unlike what people in Jay's thread said. Unless properly executed they're weak. And even when they are executed well you can see them a mile away and it fucks up your balance.

2) Don't back down, always press the attack.

3) Expect to hit the ground, After a couple punches, most fights end up in a grappling situation.

In fact, if possible go for the tackle, at the very least get ready to brace yourself for it and don't be afraid to knee the guy when he goes in for the tackle.

If you get a successful mount position you've basically won. Even most medieval sword battles ended with grappling.

As a Judoka - you are correct. Addition:

While grappling him you have a near endless amount of options. My recommendation:

1.) If he is on top - go for a submission hold. Once he grabs your shirt, lock his arm and try to overbend his elbow joint. If he does not expect this the pain already might be enough distraction for you to turn him over. If not you might as well try to choke him from below since you are pretty much screwed.

2.) If/once you are on top: Place one knee on his throat and one knee on the ground. Lock the arm on your side between your head and your shoulders, twist the arm for a submission hold. If he struggles, put your weight on his throat. This will wear him out extremely fast.

3.) For the overkill you could now apply a leg-lock from behind, if done correctly you can choke and do a submission-hold at the same time with no chance for him to ever get out of it, since the strongest muscles of the body are in your legs and he has no way to reach you anyways.

You probably wouldn't be able to do any of this, though. Even in a practice match this is hard to pull of (to be fair - the opponents in a practice match usually have as much experience as you do), in a real combat you won't even remember to do this unless it has been trained excessively. Has already been handy for me, though^^
