Medium is a good way to put it. I trained BJJ and wrestling. If I actually put time into it ide be alot better at fighting. I'm more afraid of going to jail at this point haha

I'm pretty athletic compared to the average person. But I'd definitely lose a fight to a trained fighter. And yeah I'm not trying to fight anymore. It's stupid and not worth it.

I got pretty lucky tbh because I was born with good genetics/good instincts. When I was young I could also easily absorb everything from movies, and especially video games. I intuitively understood the finer points of fighting and this has brought me my aculmination of fighting experience. My fighting proficiency has ended every fight I’ve ever been in before it even began. In all but one instance my prowess has prevented any of my opponents from even confronting me at all. If it even came down to the point where we traded blows, I would destroy them obviously.
Entire NYPD should go on strike. You'll see then how quickly the mayor changes his tone.

this is the betas fantasy


it's true that weapons can always be used and that's why u shouldn't start fights, but stabbing someone or shooting someone isn't a good way to deescalates a situation most the time. there's hundreds of scenarios where it'd be efficient to know how to fight to fk someone up. It's called escalation of force

I only have ever been in one fight as an adult. Some dude sucker punched me outside of a bar for no reason, he didn't connect very well thank God so I turned around and dropped him and pummeled him until people pulled me off. I think he was on drugs or something. I was at a wedding in a suit and had been drinking for like 4 hours. It was in front of my gf and honestly I could tell she was literally dripping wet because I am not someone who ever acts like a tough guy and she's never seen that side of me. I did a decent amount of boxing and grappling in my late teens and early 20s, not enough to consider myself a fighter by any means, but probably have more experience then the average Joe I guess.


I But that was like 6 years ago. I'm in worse shape now and had a wrist surgery and broken wrists so I doubt my punches carry much weight anymore. I'd be too scared of injuring myself again so I'd probably have to wrestle to avoid ruining my wrists and hands forever.

To be fair unless someone attacks me ill probably never get into a fight again. I smoke way too much weed so I usually just laugh **** off and let things go easily.

I have knockout punching power for sure. But not very skilled. Been in a few in my younger years. I avoid fights.

Former UFC fighter, Spencer Fisher, told me stories of when he took Karate these Muay Thai guys came to his Dojo and kept chopping at their legs.

The karate Dojo kicked them out.

So Spencer switched to Muay Thai and MMA afterwards.

There's a video online of a gang in a parking lot picking on this guy then the guy kicked at their legs and they just dropped on the concrete like a ton of bricks.

Decent have really good coordination and twitchy, athletic, learned to box, wrestled too growing up.

Kind of don't matter though I'm not in condition haven't practiced in years.

Now fresh off training for a few months, can confidently kick some ass.

That said plenty of guys out there who'd kick my ass, both smaller and especially bigger.

Wish I was still sharp with wrestling I used to rag doll guys give them the old push, with for them to push back, then violently snatch them.

ive been in lots of street dumb crap fights and trained mt boxing for years and bjj wrestling for about 5

whats the point of this thread though

people who train properly are around medium unless you are a professional then there are levels to that as well

winning a few streets fights does not mean you are a medium level fighter it means your medium at the low level spectrum of physical combat

an amatuer fighter would kill you

Lost my ego few years ago.
Am bloatlord so it has two benefits and one downfall

Downfall is I am not as fast as a twink.

Benefits are I can take multiple hits
When I connect it’s over

Had a 130lb BJJ guy try to take me down multiple times in a fight with no success. Was a fun fight and we ended up making peace a few weeks after. No one really won.

Been training BJJ for 5 years now. Would fare pretty well against anyone with no training, assuming they don't completely dwarf me in size (I'm 5'11 175 lbs, so no guys who are 250+). Even then, I wouldn't engage in a fight unless there's some pretty extreme circumstances. Way too many unknown variables. Best to just avoid it, and get the urge out in the gym (no homo)
