How To Street Fight

When learning how to street fight, don't forget that some situations can be avoided.

Note: use these tactics at your own risk and as a last resort during a life or death struggle. If at all possible avoid the fight. At the very least you will be somewhat justified if your actions are ever questioned in a courtroom.

If avoidance is not an option...

Attack first. If you know an attack is coming, don't waste time with the whole face to face male dominance stand off. He might actually be a better fighter than you. Or he might be waiting to pull out a weapon. Don't give him a chance to fight. Just take him out.

Drive forward. The winner in most street fights is often the most aggressive.

Avoid trading blows. End the fight immediately. Learn vital areas of the body like the eyes, throat, knees and groin and attack them full force. Work quickly, he might have friends.

Why go in unarmed? Your environment is likely full of weapons. Chairs, pool cues, bottles, broom sticks etc.

Kick him while he's down. The last thing you want is an attacker getting up after you've knocked him down. Head stomp, rib stomp, or groin stomp and then run. Note: Careful when employing stomps to a downed attacker, it's easy to slip, lose your balance or roll your ankle.

Avoid the ground when possible. It's easy to get stuck on the ground. Even if you end up in a dominant ground fighting position, his friends might be close by.
