I see these guys practicing their Karate and my friend starts telling me how tough they are
so I say Karate isn't going to do anything once I grab you and put you on the ground. so know we are in this big thing and my friend wants me to prove myself against one of these guys. so here is what I am thinking they work mostly on kicks and punches so get inside and go for the takedown to get them off their feet? good tactic, should be interesting to see if these guys will take me up on my offer. |
|
You are going to have to be willing to take AT LEAST one punch or kick on the way in. The guy knows this is your tactic so you are fucked on the surprise.
If the particular person you are fighting has studied pressure points, outside the obvious, you are also in store for some interesting pain when up close. Not impossible, but you have handicapped yourself by fighting someone who knows your strategy going in... IMHO |
|
If he uses a pressure point on you grab his balls and squeeze.
Hell if he is gonna fight like a byatch so can you. |
|
What exact form of martial arts are they practicing? You better pray it wasn't Judo or similar. They'll have you on your ass before you can blink.
I've always been amazed at the necessity of some young men to prove how tough they are. The toughest men I've ever met had nothing to prove and they didn't go around running their mouths about how bad they were. But the smallest dogs always bark the most. Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas... |

Point your gun at him and say, "GET THE FUCK ON THE GROUND NOOOOOOOW ASSHOLE!!!!!!"
You win!

Too bad they want to play "dojo ballet" instead of "I dont give a f*** if you end up in the hospital"

Yeah, you're probably going to do ok with someone who knows [i]only[/i] karate if you can absorb a few (possibly serious) strikes on the way in. If they're all about kicking and striking, grappling is the way to go. [b]Never box a boxer, never wrestle a wrestler[/b]. In a practical martial art, versatility is the name of the game. If you only know how to grapple or only know how to strike, you're pretty much screwed.

Stay out of arms reach and force him to try a kick. Then dive on his ass when he has one foot 5 feet in the air.
It worked for me! (Once!)[BD] |

There is no such thing as fighting like a bitch. If pulling hair helps me win, then so be it.

I've heard brass knuckles to the nutts, back(kidneys), shins, and the back of the heard will leave you on the plus side [(:)]
Dont go looking for a fight, but if you must: Listen to Heavy Metal or Rock first. Then take a handful of speeders. Then call up someone who hates you/you hate them to get you going. Then picture them pissing on your grandmothers shoes. Now, that addreanaline high should be enough to take many direct blows from Ching Dung Wang. Just keep on beating him until the police show up. [;D] |

After grappling for only 1 month, I tapped out a tae kwon do guy in nothing flat. Jab a couple of times just to make him think you want to box him, then go for the takedown. Watch for the low kicks though, those things hurt like a muthafuck. As far as getting your ass beat, hmmm.... If I were a betting man (and I am) I would have to say that my money is not on you. Especially if this guy knows what he is doing. So in essence, yes, you will get your ass beat.
|
|
If you get a chance to when fighting talk shit to him to I have found that helps. If you do get him down and are pounding him scream and shout fraises like "I'm gonna kill you mother f***er!!!"
|
|
You're screwed!
You need to kneecap the other guy, and that better be while you are receiving instructions, 'cause once the thrashing starts, it's gonna be over. NEVER let the other side know what you do or don't know. Good luck, get video, post it here [:D] |

Well since you have too ask.......
I'd say yes,you're in for the beating of your life. |

Use the Magnum PI method. Point a 1911 in his face and if he blinks, blow his head off.

you should look up DevL
read his post in the fitness and self defense forum under something like "help me pick a martial art" i'd bet he'd have some good advice |

Dirty Hairy, a little know member of the San Fran PD once said " Go ahead punk, make my day".

You're going to get hurt. Really hurt. I would suggest backing down.

I can tell you are young, so I will give you the advise my dad gave me.
1. There is always someone that can kick your ass, most likely there are several. 3. Sometimes it's all about who is willing to go to the hospital ,are you. Are you willing to die over the reason you are in this position ? If the answer is yes to BOTH, you stand a very good chance that your challenger will back down or beg for you to stop biting him in the nuts. 4. It is OK to bite someone in the dick as long as you really do not like it. My best guess from the infomation you have given me is you will be lose. [B(] |

When your rushing him , Keep your head down elbows and forearms under your chin, like a real compact boxer stance. This gaurds against his most effective weapon against your charge(knee to the chin). At the last moment before impact straiten up fast just in case an elbow strike or a cross punch was his intention.Then his Karate is worthless. Now you just hope he didn't study jujitzu.
This when you need about 2 weeks of Krav Maga training |

This reminds me of a couple years ago. While passing by a basketball court with my friend some punk threw the ball at my friend. I advised that we move on, and while we were walking away the punk punched my friend in the face, started bouncing around like a monkey throwing punches in the air at me. He got in striking range, and I kicked him in the ribs, he fell on his ass with the wind knocked out of him. Punk got up, and tried charging/tackling me. After a REALLY hard/fast back kick to the head he flipped over backwards and his face was coated with blood, broken nose, and a boot print on his bloody face.
Let this be a lesson to you. DO NOT try charging a person who knows a lot of Tae Kwon Do. However, we're talking KARATE. That's different. Karate is 60% hand fighting. It has a shorter effective range (hands vs feet). The best thing to do is either kick from a distance, or charge/tackle the guy. Use Wrestling/Judo techniques to keep the guy down. I agree, grab the nuts and rip. After living in Minneapolis, if I defend myself with Tae Kwon Do I've stopped being sporting. I just shatter the guy's knee with a hard kick, and while he's down on the ground kick him in the head to knock him out. Then he's no longer a threat. When fighting to win/live, fight any way necessary to win; Even dirty. |

I've beaten the daylights out of black belts in Karate long before I took any martial arts. Karate is just generally impractical in a street fight. It generally comes down to fighting experience, size and dedication.

Rather than picking a fight, why don't you train with this bunch a little? I wouldn't suggest anyone picking a fight. You never know who you may come up against. In this case, you know that they have at least some training.
The style of martial arts I teach is based on Okinawan Karate but that is just for the traditional aspect, techniques, forms, etc.. For self-defense I teach mixed martial arts--the best of every style--and just plain down and dirty street fighting. Our motto is, "Whatever it takes." I suspect most martial arts schools nowadays teach mixed martial arts along with a tradiional style. The Ultimate Fighing Championship, Pride Fighting, K1, etc. have shown that a single style is not very effective. BTW, even though I'm only 5'9" and can kick a 6'4" person in the head with at least 10 different kicks, in a street fight I'm not gonna kick any higher than the ribs and usually only knee or groin height. At those heights I doubt you could catch my leg as my kicks are just too fast. And, don't bother pulling your gun out unless you are at a good distance as I'm gonna take it from you. |

You just don't know how good your opponent is going to be in a fight. He might SUCK at the karate he's learning, but may be one hell of a street fighter or something.
It's TOTALLY STUPID to even think about getting into a fight with somebody just to prove yourself. You need a better reason than that. It's a bad reason, and if you start a fight for that reason, you totally DESERVE to get your ass kicked up around your ears. Any well-trained karate student won't start a fight. He knows that his best fighting technique is defensive, and your taking the offensive is probably going to play into his hands. I take a martial art but it's not karate or judo or aikido or anything like that. I take iaido, or the art of drawing and cutting with the Japanese sword. It's not a contact sport! But the school teaches very solid styles of aikido, karate, and judo, and I wouldn't dare to think that ANY of the higher ranked students in ANY of those disciplines would be a pushover. The school isn't in the business of handing out belts and the students EARN every promotion. All the black belts are people I wouldn't want to confront without a minigun. CJ |

The way I see it you're best chance is to use some psy warfare.
Walk in and act a bit light in the loafers. While you're fighting say something like... "I've been admiring you from afar for months. It turns me on seeing the sweat drip off you're strong muscles." He'll look at you really weird, then he'll probably look over at one of his friends... That's your chance. When he looks in the other direction go in for the kill! Underhanded... yes, but it might just work. rssc |
