In light of the fighting thread, I was wondering...

How many of you honestly like to fight?

I can honestly say, I somewhat enjoy it.  I'm not posting this to be a badass, or to prove my machoness, and I've definently seen my fair share of losses, but I was just wondering how many people feel the same or different.  I'm not one to just go push people to start something, but if a fight comes up I'm always there.

My favorites are after football practice, a guy always brings in some gloves, and we box. (I'm 2-0) I guess I like the controlled fights better than actual fighting, but regardless, I think it's like a rush thats somewhat addictive, like paintball.  Most people will tell you after you fight once, it's so much easier to fight the next time.

I used to live by my parents rule, "If they hit you, you hit them."  That totally changes once you get older, because if somebody hits you first, your pretty much done if the hit you in the nose. 

I have my assumptions on who here is a fighter, but I was just wondering if anyone had the same sort of "addiction" (if you will).

EDIT- And I'm not talking if you fight once a year, I'm talking monthly fights (or boxing match's, as me and my friends do).

I haven't been in a fight since HS. I used to lose alot. No shame in admitting it. I was a loud annoying little kid that people lied to pick on.

I had a knife drawn on me once, and I decided that fleeing was a good idea.

I did win a few scraps though, and I WILL fight if the situation demands it.

No. Im one of the people that wont quit once I get someone on the groud. If Im actually fighting, everything really is fair. I'll go for the testicles, use anything I can, and kick them when they are down. I have a temper that wont stop until someone is severly hurt...be it me or them.

Controlled fighting is the same. I lose my temper way to easily...so I just try to be a gentle giant.

Yep. We have weekly boxing tournaments here, between me and my friends. We don't have a ref or anything, but my friends dad was a amatuer boxer, and he built a ring in his back-yard. I don't participate every week though, sometimes I can feel the hits from the previous week. But yeah, I box, and ever since I've started I haven't noticed much frusteration elsewhere.

We do staff wrestling and stuff at camp, which a ton of fun.

I don't do it often here, because I'm so much bigger than most people.

I did get in a fight last year on the football field, 'cause a bunch of kids were messing with us-so we put 'em back in their place. It was good.

I do mess around and put my friends in holds sometimes though.

One of my friends tried to grab me to put me in a hold in school, and I just kinda automatically grabbed him, pulled his arm around his back, put my arm across his other arm and his neck, and spun him around. It was cool, knowing I do that on reflex. That said, it's always a good way to impress girls, until someone gets hurt. Then they're like "OMG!!11!!!1", and you get all worried that you'll get sued.

I never try to fight and most people know not to fight me or about 5 other kids seeing as how we are about the only ones with a martial arts background. Like I say though we dont try to get into fights and luckily I still haven't but if someone annoys me, very hard to do, then I will resort to fighting.

Actual street fights I must admit are fun but not worth the trouble afterwards so I try to stay away from them unless I'm sure the guy is going to fight me wether I want to or not. In that case I say end it there. But ya, controlled fights are fun. Rules frustrate me so I like to spar with pretty much anything goes. But since it's pretty much sparring noone uses full force so really you do a move until they give. It's fun and noone really gets hurt so its all good. I can pretty much beat all of my friends and guys my age, but every once and a while my older brother wants to slap box and man, I get my butt kicked. He's so fast and has awsome technique. But it's fun, and when I "play-fight" other kids my own age, they feel like nothing. So ya I'll say I like to.

And 90% of fights are won with the first punch....

Either way, whoever told me I need to join a boxing club, I'm really not as bad as I made it sound.  I mean, I enjoy fighting, but I don't go out of my way to start one.

My last fight was on the way home from a baseball with the team, and a guy called me a **edited** because I didn't drink(I don't drink), and started laughing.  And this kid has a reputation for fighting, so I knew he would throw the first punch so I started walking back there (it was only like three seats) and he stood up and I hit him.  Basically it was a one hit fall to the ground body shot wrestle type of ordeal.  Either way the coach didn't even care, and neither one of us got in trouble.  I'm not one to cause I fight, I just like to fight in general.  As I said before, I enjoy boxing more than actual fighting...

Edit--I was at the guys party, when I didn't drink...

I have not gotten into a fight since High School. Since then I guess I grew up. I also think my out look changed when I got my first firearm. Nothing is worth fighting for, unless theres no other way and Im in serious danger. I assume if that situation arises I will probably get arrested and charged with assult or even murder...and thats if its self defense. I would probably get off but the legal bills would would break me. SO no mater what the reason is its always better to walk away.

  Fighting isn't really "fun", but I don't ever regret it.  I have always been a big kid, so no one ever messed with me in elementary school, so my first fight was 7th grade.  A kid was beeing an idiot and trying to insult me (which was stupid because the whole football team had the same p.e. with a couple of other kids.).  I told him that I'd fight him, but he wouldn't, so I picked up his stuff and threw it across the room.  That was when he walked up and hit me square in the lip.  I ended up running him into a wall and beating the crap out of him.  The the P.e coach threw me to the side after a little bit (he always let people fight atlest until someone could say they won), but I pushed him out of my way and hit the guy twice more in the jaw. 

The P.E. coach also was my football coach and my friends dad, so he told me that he didn't mind me fighting, but he was mad about me pushing him.

My next fight was with my best friend 2 years later.  We were arguing about something, and we ended up excahnging a few "nut-checks".  I got the last one in, and I was really swinging when I did it, so he got pissed and hit me.  We went at it for a few minutes and I had him pinned him against the couch.  Then our friends serparated us.  We shook hands right after and weren't even pissed at each other.  We're still friends today.

  I really don't like to throw first punches, and I only fight when I have to.  Ohh, I also have 5 years of Karate.

Nope, never been in a real fight. Not planning on it, but I think I'd do ok, depending on who I was against.
We've got a good posse going though. Of the guys I hang out with, 3 are in boxing (and one did judo too) one works out about twice a day, one is really quick (saw him fight, he's quite the scrapper) and I'm just a really big guy in general.

  ^ Same here.  I hang around 3 football players.  Some of them aren't really big, but very few people mess with us, because we always together.  We were always the guys who stuck up for the people getting picked on, but nobody minds us doing that because we are close to all of the black guys at school.  Since we are close to all of the black guys, the only idiots that would even try to start something are the white crack-heads, who we have confronted a few times. 

  BTW:  I am not being prejudice by saying the "black guys" (I have many balck friends), but people tend to hang out with who they live around, and in my town the black community lives really close together, and the whites live in a separate part.

I get into a fight on occasion. But its more, if i get my hands on you, you are done, fights over. I dont really hit people, i might get you in a hold and threaten to break your arm if you dont calm down. Thats all thogh.

  I really wouldn't think so.  I am a grappeler by nature.  My uncle was one of the instructors at the dojo (dunno bout the spelling). He was into grappeling, and he also happened to live with me for about 2 years.  We used to wrestle on the floor alot.  He showed me head-locks, sleeper holds, and the ever usefull arm bar. My cousin was the state runner up in wrestleing, and a different uncle (who lives down the street) is a deputy and showed me the correct way to do the police hold.  I've defended myslef more than once without hitting people,  and I put my friends in policeholds, armbars, and pin them down all of the time when we wrestle.

  I'm not saying that I should be on UFC or anything, but I can and have defended myself against people bigger, stronger, and faster than me.

 Edit:  Also, I have always viewed fighting as something that should only be done in extreme situations.  Self-deffense is what it should mostly be used for, but every now and then people get out of line and have to be dealt with.

 I agree.  You always see on stuff like UFC that even the best strikers lose a fight when a grappler gets them on the ground and they don't counter well.

the first person i fought turned out to be my best friend. it turned out to be a draw no1 rly won.
 
   Me i dont enjoy getting into fights(like going and lookin for trouble). But if it's goin to turn out into a fight no matter wat i try like walking away(or a friend or lil brother/sister(ohh man u bttr skip town if any1 guy touch my sister) is jumped by 2 or more guys). I take care of my self not like b4 like 7th 8th freshmen when i was weak(i was always a big kid just nvr rly had a mean side). but now im stronger from football/wrkin out.  I'm more of a upclose fighter gotta have a handle on em pushin em around or keeping em close to me while pounding away. and it only last as long till the other guy gives up or i prove my point.

and man do i hate gangs/crews comin up a sayin we goin to beat ur butt. im like y dont 1 of u come and try. but yeah i can handle my self against two guys not sayin im goin to come out untouched they will get there hits in but man do i make sure they stay down i mean i'll floor em wit some punchs and give em a good stomp on there head no playin round.

freshmen year is when i rly knew i could fight it was launch some jerk azz senoir decide to look all big and bad pickin on a freshmen and was tossing fries at me all lunch period so i was man come on. then he kept doing it(i was like alright i'll let him have his laughs)then he took a hand full and throw em at my face(he was across the table from me) so i'm rlly pest now. i grab my tray(we have the hard plastic ones)and smack right up side his face wit ketchup fries nachos and cheese. he gets up walks over to my side im like ohh crap(so me being a big kid) i push my weight around and got him flat on his back on the table and stick him in the face. he punches me and gets up from the table by then security was there and holdin him back(or i would of been dead)lol

man kinda long no1 goin to read this. i could say tippmann sucks butt and no1 will notcie lol (playin around tippmann love)

^^I read it, and I'm suprised how many of you think lifting and football will win fights.  I've seen guys WGP Guy's size hold their own against fairly larger people.

Your going to think I'm lying, but I got in a fight with a freshman for that same reason.  We always have food wars at lunch (the jock and their girlfriends table, and the freshman/sopohmore table), and I picked up a corn dog and threw it at this kid without realizing it had mustard on it.  Anyway, he gets up and starts walking over, so I stand up and he pushes me (I didn't think he would even touch me), so that started a fight.  That was one of few fights I can say I actually won easily in, because once that kid got hit once he basically just covered up.

I don't know if its just my town, but their are alot of people like me here, who just fight just to fight.  We had our yearbooks come out, and mention that we had an all time # of fight suspensions (We had 28 fights on school grounds).  If I ever get a scanner, I'll scan the little caption thing.

Honestly, most fights in high school end up on the ground after the first punch or two anyway.  And the majority of time your in a fight is 60 seconds, so grappling wont do that much.  Whoever gets in the first hit basically won.  In order to grapple someone, you would have to come at them, and most people will either hit you, or you will look extremely stupid just trying to grab someone....

Hey!

I'm a very passive and calm person 99% of the time...but there are a few and only a few things that will get me going.

One being...any kind of messin' around with my girl...just doesn't fly too well with me.

Two being...messin' with my family...nope, don't think so.

Three being...messin' with my friends...cuz they'd do the same for me.

And finally...messin' up my *stuff*... it's mine not yours, i'll be the one if anybody to destroy it.

If you do any of those things...chances are that I'll get up in your face and *stuff* will go down.

And I'm type of person that since I hardly ever get mad...that if you do somehow get me going, don't expect me to just go away.

And once I'm going...there's no stoppin' me.

I don't care who you are...what you look like...I won't stop til either you're bloody, bruised, walkin' away, and/or unconcious or you knock me out cold.

Cuz you could render me a parapalegic and I'd still be bitin' your flippin' ankles.

But I've been in more than my fair share of fights...and not to brag or sound conceited...but I do come out on top almost always...mainly because I never stop comin' at you no matter how hard you're hittin' me.

When I'm fightin'...pain really never even phases me because all that's on my mind is beatin' the *crap* out of you...nothing else matters at that moment.

Heck...I'm banned from 3 different High Schools...my old school, the one I just graduated from(just happened yesterday), and my girlfriend's...all for fighting.

And about a week or so ago...I knocked my uncle who's an ex-marine to the floor cuz he came home one night drunk and mad about something and threw my aunt up against a wall...just ran up to him and smoked him right in the side of the head...he got up about 5 minutes later and stumbled up to bed.

And I'm not huge...6', 155lbs, medium build(benchin' 255 right now, curlin' 115).

But yeah...I'm done.

  Well, I box every now and then, and have had my share of fights to prove that I don't suck.  At my school, people don't care to fight very fair, so no one except the few fight alone.  If people want to go one on one, most will let them (I know I'd never jump in on a fight unless my friends were just getting torn to peices), but as soon as something like a fight is about to start, the guy's friends are gonna come a stand by him to make sure things don't get outa hand.  When you have one guy with friends that have a rep of not losing, and you have some skinny crack heads with his crack head friends, they don't want to have to get all of their butts beat, so they back off. 

  At my 2A school, everyone knows each other, and I would say that 95% of the people in the school have never had a problem with me (I'm a pretty likeable guy), and the other 5% either got the problem solved or are too afraid to actualy mess with me.  I have only started one fight in my life, and I don't like to start trouble.  Like I said, I usualy stick up for the people who won't fight for themselves, so nobody has a problem with that except the jerks who like to mess with people (they are usualy just drug heads that think they own the place).

  Another point I would like to make is that no one is stupid enough to  go up to 15 guys by himself and start a fight with the one guy.  Even though he may think that the others will not join in, he wouldn't take the risk of getting all of them pissed at him.

  Just as I said, I am friends with just about my entire class, and no one int he school has anything against me except maybe 4 people.

  Ohh, and if I can bench 300 lbs, it's gonna hurt when I hit you, and you really can't put strong guys in wrestleing holds unless you are really good.  and if I can lift weights for 30 minutes strait without stopping, then I can go the distance with you.  The only thing that makes some jock bad fighters is slowness, and not being able to take puches.  I know a few footbal players who can't fight, but I guarentee that there are very few non-athletes at the school who could take me.  This may not be true elsewhere, but in my small school, all of the good fighters play some sport.

Hey!

I'm a very passive and calm person 99% of the time...but there are a few and only a few things that will get me going.

One being...any kind of messin' around with my girl...just doesn't fly too well with me.

Two being...messin' with my family...nope, don't think so.

Three being...messin' with my friends...cuz they'd do the same for me.

And finally...messin' up my *stuff*... it's mine not yours, i'll be the one if anybody to destroy it.

If you do any of those things...chances are that I'll get up in your face and *stuff* will go down.

And I'm type of person that since I hardly ever get mad...that if you do somehow get me going, don't expect me to just go away.

And once I'm going...there's no stoppin' me.

I don't care who you are...what you look like...I won't stop til either you're bloody, bruised, walkin' away, and/or unconcious or you knock me out cold.

Cuz you could render me a parapalegic and I'd still be bitin' your flippin' ankles.

But I've been in more than my fair share of fights...and not to brag or sound conceited...but I do come out on top almost always...mainly because I never stop comin' at you no matter how hard you're hittin' me.

When I'm fightin'...pain really never even phases me because all that's on my mind is beatin' the *crap* out of you...nothing else matters at that moment.

Heck...I'm banned from 3 different High Schools...my old school, the one I just graduated from(just happened yesterday), and my girlfriend's...all for fighting.

And about a week or so ago...I knocked my uncle who's an ex-marine to the floor cuz he came home one night drunk and mad about something and threw my aunt up against a wall...just ran up to him and smoked him right in the side of the head...he got up about 5 minutes later and stumbled up to bed.

And I'm not huge...6', 155lbs, medium build(benchin' 255 right now, curlin' 115).

But yeah...I'm done.

 



I figured that if anyone would be the same as me, it would be Lawless.  I'm not huge myself, but I'm 6'1" 185lb.  I pretty much follow the same rules as you, except if anyone just walks up to me I'll hit them, I'm not taking the chance of them hitting me.

And what you said about not feeling anything, thats exactly how I feel when I'm boxing and such.  Normally one punch to the face and I'm out, but when your expecting it you can take alot more.  I don't always win all my fights, pretty much about 80% are wins on my behalf, and the other 20%, I either just messed with the wrong guy or got hit first.

And I would also like to apoligize to you for being so cruel in your Abortion thread.  I was probably one of the worst in comments toward you, and me and the girlfriend(ex now) had a scare a few months ago. (she was only a few days late)  But it really puts things into perspective, you don't really know how you would act.  She was already looking up abortion doctors, and I can say, somewhat regretfully, that I didn't tell her not too.  I can see it from her point of view, you've only been with one other guy, and your already pregnant.  But like I said it was just a scare, and I just wanted to let you know I apoligize for being so harsh, on an already tuff decision you had to make.

Hashi, you don't understand, I know many of guys in my school alone who could totally kill you.  I would take a guy who could hit alot faster than someone who hit harder.  What happens if you bench 300 and get hit first by a faster guy?  Granted, if you get the first hit in, your good, but thats not always the case.

I honestly don't know if your telling the truth, but when I'm mad, I have jumped into the middle of a bunch of guys just to hit one.  When your seriously mad about something, you don't really think that clear.  I've never had one fight where the guys friends have jumped in. I've had them pull me off but never actually hit me.  I'm not calling you a liar, but you honestly don't sound like you know what your talking about to much.  But I can't really get a good picture of your personality through a forum.

We used to know this kid named Go-Go.  He was incredibly fast, and he did lift but was no beast.  He was one of the best boxers on the team, I never saw him lose.  Regardless, being strong will help you win, I was just saying theres alot more to it...

  I think that school fights aren't really a good indication of a good fighter.  School fights are too quick, but you can still win without the first hit.  My first fight was a good example.  The guy got the first 3 hits cause he had long arms, but I was able to get in on him, and once I did, he was done.  If the fight had been stopped, then I would have looked like an idiot, but since it did go on I got a quick rep of being crazy when I get pissed.  I'm so laid back, that so many people were surprised when I beat the crap outa that kid.  They would come up to me in the hall and tell me crap like "we didn't think you were the kind to fight" and stuff.  IMO, I was over-rated at that time, but my principles are much like Lawless's.  You don't mess with my family, my friends (cause they're like family to me), or girls.  I don't care who you are, if you hit a girl without a HECK of a reason, I'll be pissed.

BTW: Does anyone else have a friend who runs his mouth so much and gets himself into fights that he couldn't handle.  I know a guy like that, and I'm always having to move him away from people to stop them from beating the crap out of him.

I'm not really a big kid, but not bragging I could pack a pretty good punch. I don't really fight though. Other than with my brother which is one sided and once in 7th grade. That was also one sided. I punched him in the face, hit him in the stomache dropping him down on all fours. I have no idea why. Then I kicked him in the face. I felt like a big man.

Even though I took the "big guy" side of the comparison earlier, I would like to say that it's not always true.  That is one example, but that is also boxing.  If Tyson was on the street, he probably would have tacked him.  But anyways, I wanted to also say that skill is more effective than strenght.  I bet that the 2 best fighters at my school could fight a martial artist, lets say Jet Li.  Im sure that Jet Li could slaughter both of those guys at once.  Yet another side of that is the martial artists who relly a little more on strenght like the brick breakers.  If one of them hit you in the head once, you are dead.  They crush cocanuts, which are nearly as hard as the human skull.

I call shenns....

Either way, anyone can pack a punch, like Dibeau and I have said, the faster guy will usually win.  In street fights, why do you think black people(sorry for the racism) are so good?

I have learned a few martial arts over the years and I have my favorites. I am not a violent or rage filled person. I am fasinated by the dynamics of the body and power concentration. Akido, American boxing, and Defendu are probably my favorites. Fast jabs and low kicks, then running will get you out of just about any fight you get yourself into.

Football players? Back in highschool I beat a football player that thought his size and intimidation was enough to get him by, once the punches started flying. Unfortuently once your in a fight with one person on a team, the rest of the team supports them. Luckily, I had friends on the team also, and more wrestlers then football players. Highschool wrestling is the art of horseplay!

Now I spar with friends sometimes, we wrestle and do throws and holds on each other - Drown each other in swimming pools. If I put in a mouth piece, the headgear, wraps and gloves I have we box... but I am having a hard time getting my friends back into that, since we are all tired of getting punched in the head. I have a very nice heavy bag to practice my drills on.

Most people don't want to fight, you get hurt. Usually only those drunken jerks who have nothing to loss are grown adults that make aggression. I will fight for the defence of myself and others, but I will run from a situation that has me at a tactical disadvantage, with no shame. I don't want myself or the person I am fighting killed, and I don't go looking for trouble.

No offense, but if you kick somebody in high school, even if you kill them your going to get mad fun of...

Wow, your only going to be a freshman (you stated in another thread).  Which means your only 14 or 15 (unless you failed).

Thats quite an accomplishment to have two black belts in two seperate martial arts when your only 15

  I might have to call BS on that one.  Every instructor I know will not give a black belt to anyone under 17 (they give Jr. Blacks). This is to prevent you from sparing with adults in tournaments.  Even then, it is nearly impossible to guggle both martial arts.

Too lazy to read 4 pages about fighting... so I read the first page and am giving my input.

I've never been in a fight.  Almost once, but when I pushed the kid back, he stumbled over a chair and didn't care to get any more.

Although, my friends enjoy amature wresteling(sp) very much.  They do it qutie often, but I hardly ever participate with them.  I have a few times, but in the end I deem it a lost cause.  One is about 6'4", 200 lbs, the other is 6'3", 165.  I'm 5'9, 130...  Yeahhh....

  Fights really are mostly immature releases of frustration or anger.  Sometimes, fights are necessary, but I'm more into self defense than hurting other people.  However, playing on the D line requires me to be insanely agressive every play, so I am prone to snap on people under certain curcumstances.  One time, we were short on players and I was forced to play on a sprained ancle (it happened during the game).  I snapped on the kid that did it, because it was a cheap.  BOth of us played both ways, and I tore him up the whole rest of the game.  My point of this off topic comment was that a wounded animal is more dangerous than any other (except maybe one with rabies).
