how to prepare for a fight

SkinnyKid · 05-02-2004, 11:27 AM

just head-butt him, they never see it coming and thats what i've done in every fight i've been in. we punch each other in the face a few times then i just rocket my head forward into his nose. i swear to god it ends the fight right then.

Michael D · 05-02-2004, 11:47 AM

Maybe you should carb up before the fight so you will have plenty of energy.

Also, there is no such thing as a fair fight so expect him to play dirty. It is planned afterall. I wouldn't have planned it personally.

And as far as Tito Ortiz goes, he is a punk. He friggin cried after he lost to Randy. I still haven't seen the Iceman beat his ass but it has to be good

The fool did cry didnt he???? Damn...I have that fight on file, it was awesome. Yes, he is very disrespectful, I agree. And that fight with Chuck....oh man...no words....

It was funny because Tito was smaking lip like he always does, then Chuck comes out with this gem:

The difference between me and Tito as a fighter is I like fighting …" says Liddell when asked to analyze his mentality as a fighter compared to Ortiz. "He does it because of what he gets from it. He does it for the fame, he does it for the money -- for whatever he gets from it. But he doesn't really like to fight. He doesn't really like being a fighter."

"I knew that when I was training with him."

That hit the nail on the head if you ask me. That seemed to get into Tito's head and in another interview with Tito, even the reporter commented on how it sounded like Tito was trying to convince himself.

Tito says he caught a thumb to his eye, but I dont think that should have made that much of a difference. Tito balled up like a little girl and took the asswhooping shamefuly. I wont make a total decision on Tito till the rematch, if there is one. Not that Im anyone to judge Tito or anyone else, but you know what I mean.

chiquita6683 · 05-02-2004, 03:34 PM

V Player · 05-02-2004, 04:04 PM

Are you sure it was Tito? Wow....he fought so soon after gettin his ass whooped??? Dayum! Not doubting you, but he didnt have no time to train. How'd he pull that one off I wonder. Anything is possible I guess.

and1_4ever · 05-02-2004, 04:21 PM

This is by far the funniest thread/replies I have ever read. My sides hurt from laughing so much

My favorites were

:And of course, keep a little bag of salt in your belt handy so if your opponent starts winning, you can throw it in his eyes and blind him.:

"ask him to stop, and if he does not tell him that you're going to tell his mom"

Awesome

Now for my 2 cents:
But for fights I can tell you that fights are not about who is strongest. I mean dont get me wrong, it definitely helps, but you should see my roomate for example. He is a 5'9" boxer. Ive watched him box and he can take out ppl bigger and stronger than him. Why? Hes got crazy speed, and ridiculous endurance. So if anything, make sure you can take a few punches, work on speed and head movement, and also being able to throw some decent punches without getting fatigued too quickly. And if youve got him on the defensive...make sure you keep him there....dont let up in a street fight until you know its over. Use anger as your fuel, but dont so anything stupid.

It’s the athletic, fast, lean guys with amazing strength-to-weight rations, brains, scars and chipped teeth and cocky attitudes and big mouths that I steer clear of. This is a street fighter and he can gut you and be gone before you even knew you were essentially already dead.

-OD

I saw a bunch of this when I used to be a bouncer.
I rarely had problems with big guys. Once in a while. I even threw out a pro-am kick boxer. (he woulda knocked my clean the fuq out..if he wanted to engage me)
But as OD says, most guys with some size don't feel the need to prove anything to anybody.
It was usually the small, twiggy guys who started problems.

Size can be used as intimidation, but doenst mean that you are going to win, just cause you are bigger....

What did Sam Elliott say in 'Road House'?

thats what i learn from muay thai, to knock down a big guy, go for his knees..

and this post has really the weirdest question ever, why do u think u need to prepare for a fight? all you need in a fight is your heart, doesnt matter if you win or lose.. your heart gotta be strong.. if you lose thats just too bad, even oscar de la hoya get beaten up sometimes..

Burner02 · 05-03-2004, 12:26 AM

yup-
even the odds..

I think this thread was nominated for a jack-ass award..nit we are just having fun w/ it....

All that matters is that you have "heart?" Buffed, you're kidding me right? Because you won't be needing your heart at all, if there's a bullet inside your chest. Fights are not "honorable" anymore...when was the last time you saw a one on one fight with people clapping like in the movies?

And Oscar de la hoya is a boxer...he boxes in the ring. I think he's smart enough to avoid any fight he encounters on the streets.

My theory: those who are giving out training tips, truly hasn't seen (horrors of) street fights that end up with bloodied foreheads and unconscious bodies (that look like they're dead) and think fighting is a show. I'm not talking about some nightclub brawl or after school fight, those get stopped by bouncers and administrators, respectively. I'm talking about fights that just so happens to occur in the middle of town where there are no authorities/security to stop it, and it doesn't stop until a group is beaten to near death. Even if they run, they get chased after...it's not a joke. And don't think once someone is down, that means it's over. This ain't the suburbs. I've seen guys get stomped on their head by 4-5 guys...fighting is not cool as some of you think.

Either that, or else you have seen alot of violent fights, and just think it's cool to fight. Which, IMO, is very stupid.

typically the people who think fighting is cool are the ones who aren't very good at it. and if you are good at it people get hurt and winning the fight doesn't make your feel good about yourself...especially when it is over bullshit and not self-defense

a "planned" fight is bullshit

That´s absolutely correct. Avoid a fight. Doesn´t matter what everybody says but it is not good at all. It can get you killed, the human body is very sensible. Real life is very different of what is portrayed in some movies.
It may sound like a cliché but remember that the world is not about violence, it is about love.

Very well put

Save the bravado for playstation. How about challenging him to a break dancing competition. Hopefully his calendar won't allow him to attend your pre-planned beating.

Flex · 05-03-2004, 01:42 PM

in all honesty, don't fight unless you HAVE to. I don't instigate, i retaliate....and i've never lost a fight either. If you look for trouble, trouble will find you. But if you avoid it, you should be fine.

i've been in many fights in my life, but i'm proud to say i've never started one (ok, maybe just one, but thats' it....it was gonna happen anyway, so i just set it off)

and at what point do you HAVE to start a fight. Last year we were driving in a cab to a bar, and my wife thought she'd mess around with a couple of guys in a car beside us - she flashed them. We laughed but the passenger didn't think it was too funny. At the next stop light, he got out and opened the driver side back door. After asking me out (with his friend standing behind him, I politely said not tonight thanks ... and he tried to spit on me but hit my wife! I was extremely upset but had to rethink my stance. I have sworn that the next fight I get into, it's either me or the other guy that survives and the reason better be damed good to face a criminal sentence. I figured that yes, maybe we had instigated it, but I don't think it was necessary to spit on my wife. Had I choosen to get into it, the first thought was the safety of my wife. There were two of them. If I had attacked the first guy, in my state of mind, I might have been ready to go to jail, but what would happen with my this guy's friend and my wife. I was very afraid as I haven't been that upset for ... well as long as I could remember. I am glad that I didn't act upon that rage because I would be facing charges ...

damm, I just have to say that any idiot who gest upset when he sees a pair of titties flashed at him needs to have his head checked, or his testicles revoked. that is the last thing I would want to throw down over for christ sake!? hey NT, you wife can flash me anytime, I won't get mad! ha ha.
