Not if you had a good lawyer.  If you can prove that it was done in self-defense, no sentence will be given.

Now, I'm not necessarily saying that I would personally do any of this, but it all depends on the message you want to send.  I chopped that one guy in the larynx because I was too young to even think of the legal aspects.  I just saw the fucker as a bully deserving of an asskicking.  In 2tuff's situation, he's older than I was at that time, so I figure intimidation plays a bigger part (as does a lawyer if need be).

Round end of a ball peen hammer. Should do the trick. Fuck 'mano-a-mano' fighting.

Confidence.  That's about all anyone of us can offer as advice.  You won't remember all those tips when in the moment - it just won't happen.  Be confident that you will kick the guy's ass.

Once you get beat up you realize it's not the end of the world, and you do gain more confidence.  I don't like to fight at all, but I've been in my share (and been beaten up - oh well).

To win a fight you must always put protecting yourself before hurting your opponent. If you don't protect yourself properly at all times you are essentially underestimating your opponent and you will be wreckless and this obviously = loss, especially if you have no fighting experience or training

I know there's all that crap about honour and etiquette but that shit goes right out the window when you're in a street fight. My suggestion is if you're really caught out in the open in a street fight, cut and run. Forget about honour, cowardice or anything else, those things are worth fuck all when you're eating everything through a straw.

People immediately fight dirty in such a fight, they will go for the groin. If you're caught out and have no other option but to fight, I suggest you do the same.

it's good advice, but directed more toward their opponents at MMA -
my question to you: in a street fight, is covering up as important as striking, intimidation, speed, confidence?

And run if you can.

(I keep a steel rod in the trunk of my car, just in case running is not an option).

yes because if you don't start the fight then you are fighting a more aggressive and confident person so proteccting yourself is all that matters and tactical striking like straight punches to the face or upper cuts do count as protecting yourself

You should start studying Krav Maga!

It was developed JUST FOR street fighting scenarios and is honestly the most practical martial art I have seen.

BJJ is a good martial art for street fighting as it became popular due the success of its practitioners in no-hold-barred fighting

Even with a good lawyer... Especially when you can show a week old post showing where you had planned it in advance...

Point being, no one on here should be giving someone you don't know advice about fighting in a situation you don't know... For all any of us know, the altercation started when the other guy didn't pay for the drugs he used...

I'm surprised nobody mention kicking out a knee!  I know back in high school, my friend taught me a quick, inconspicuous, devastating cross over back kick to the knee..and a side kick.  Push that knee when the dude approaches you...bam...no more...anything for that guy..ever.  So if you want to stay away from said dirtbag, feint like you're scared, back up a few steps quickly provoking him to take courage and charge you...then time one of his foot steps to when you'll step on his knee (or actually kick it with your weight behind it), and watch it hyper extend, snap, and then you'll see real pain...but make sure the dude is worthy of never playing soccer again before you choose this method.  Knees are delicate, and easy to pop out of place...practice plenty before attempting..and again, only attempt to bust someone's knee if truly deserving (life/death situation where you don't want to kill but "stop" him).

That's Shotokan Karate!!!  Knee strikes, throat strikes, rib strikes, temple strikes, upper cuts.  Which is why I won't teach it to my son until he learns responsibility.  I always tell me wife, if you are ever attacked, chop the throat or hard palm the chin, kick the groin, then run away.

Another advice.  Spar with your buddies.  Nothing beats being able to take and roll with the punches.

learn to box, even if you dont pick it up and get into it.  knowing the basics of boxing and perfecting them will go a long way...

knowing some wrestling or bjj would help a lot too, if u find yourself fighting someone 1v1, having ground skills is a big +.  but it wont help you as much if your being jumped, if your being attacked by 3 or more people...  eyes, throat and groin

Yeah, but they don't work if you are small and scrawny.  The video should be about the skinny guy taking on the brawny guy to prove that skill/knowledge can defeat mass.

Bas Rutten FTW. he knows what he is talking about! and he dont f**k around, it is ALWAYS best to yell to anyone in earshot that you feel that you are being threatened, and your life is in danger, but yell as you are doing your best to eliminate the threat. if you truly feel that you are in danger you are within your rights to protect your life and your property!

Edit: spelling

that is called "ADW" and is not legal unless you take it from him and use it in kind. this is by far the STUPIDEST advice offered!

EDIT: force must be used in kind, meaning it cannot be "unreasonable" if you knock out your attacker, you cannot continue to attack them, that would be "excessive" and "unreasonable" force. if however he attacks you with a knife, you may kill him with his own weapon.

It's not really a street fight at school. It's the sort of thing were 30 people circle you and chant fight fight fight. You get about a minute in before some attention seeking Prick or some fake wise Cunt jumps in and stops it. Or a teacher comes.

He's not going to hit a guy and run in a school fight. There's no point, and it makes you look like a real pussy to everyone watching.
