Being your current height and weight could you beat him in a street fight scenario.

>Im 5'8 170lbs but i think he would knock me out cold before i get a chance to do anything

I would get killed, no question. The 85 pounds and 7 inch reach "advantage" mean nothing.

6ft 220. With 4 years of thai and 2 years of bjj. If he was smart and used his speed he'd win hands down, if I got a good hold of him, I might have a chance.

Until you've trained you've got no idea how someone smaller but more skilled than you could wreck you.

At a lower center of gravity, it's much easier for a small man to topple someone over.

He would literally smash 99% of men

I'm 6'5 and 190lbs and there is zero doubt in my mind he would lay me out in less than 3 seconds. I'm untrained, the fuck am I gonna do? Poke him in the eyes?

I am 6'0 160ish and he'd destroy me ez
Even with martial arts experience theres no way you can match the agression/skill of a pro athlete At least another man that is

>Being your current height and weight could you beat him in a street fight scenario.
6'3, 205lbs

Of course I couldn't. First of all, the dude doesn't walk around at 125lbs. Fighters only ever get to their fighting weight when they step on the scale. He probably walks around at upwards of 150lbs. And if you really think you could beat a fighter of his skill level simply because you are a foot taller, you have clearly never trained any martial art.

Why is everyone being realistic in this thread? I'm 5'11" and 185 pounds and would fucking destroy this manlet easy

I'd just give him an atomic wedgie and stuff him in a locker lmao

It would actually be really funny to have him fight some untrained lanklet in some freakshow fight

could he defeat boogie in a fight to the death?

>Has to superman jump to crack me in the jaw

Kind of related but what is the best martial art to train for fights? Just straight boxing? Is muay thai any good?

where is struve these days anyway?

I’m 5’9” 175 lbs. I would kill this dude he is too light to hurt me.

Why not MMA?

5'8" 180lbs

He would kill me. He would just have to use some BJJ take down and choke.

Height plays a role in fights but when untrained or undertrained vs a good fighter, it might as well not be there.

MMA isnt a martial art but a description of cross training martial arts.

If you are starting out you need to just do one discipline, build base, and expand and then say you do MMA

Boxing is good in that it teaches you to hurt other people effectively. However it is very limited in only striking and no wrestling, kicking, elbows, or clinching, hence it is good but only good enough.

I recommend Muay Thai, first. Boxing is still worth learning later.

Doesn't being small work in favor thanks to weight classes existing? Basically free muscle mass while tall dude has to weight watch just to get into the same bracket.

Size advantage only matters at equitable levels of skill. I have no idea how to fight, the 5 inch/12.5cm and 40lb/18kg (conversions done in my head, cut me some slack) advantage I've got in size means fuck all against a professional fighter who could wreck most trained fighters in the world.

When it comes to championship fighting, you have to remember there's only ever a handful of contenders for the belt at a time, meaning there's probably fewer than 100 people on Earth who are as good as a fighter as that guy.

I know that it is technically not a sport, but over the years it has basically evolved into one. You don't need to learn any martial art and then cross train, just go to an MMA gym and they will show you all the techniques you need.

No. You're min/maxing everything. Like another user said, you don't exist at your weight class, you starve and dehydrate into it for the weigh in. Your weight class is basically how light you can get before death/losing significant lean mass.

I think it's hard to find a good Muay Thai gym outside of major metros in the US. You can, however, find a good/decent boxing gym almost anywhere.

Anyone watch RnR with that chubby Mexican that just beat the brakes off the untrained bodybuilder? It was fucking wild. At least a 6" height difference and a short 25-30% bf Mexican dude piecing up a 200lbs+ 15% guy. Nuts.

No, it just evens the playing field. The tall guy can pack on muscle and move up a weight class. Or he can try to reach bully his opponents like McGregor, Holloway, Jones or Zabit.

This dude could fucking kill you easily

>and they will show you all the techniques you need

hahahhaahahahhahaha u fukkin cuck no they dont.

They host classes like muay thai, BJJ, wrestling. then once or twice a week they have a MMA class where it gets combined

NO PEPE DON'T SAY IT

>train for fights
If by fights you mean competition/sports, literally just pick one and have fun. If by fights you mean "self-defense", there's no such thing as a catch-all style that's going to prepare you for every kind of self-defense situation. No amount of hand-to-hand martial arts will prepare you to fight someone with a knife; no amount of weapons-added martial arts will prepare you for someone with a gun; no amount of home-defense firearms training will prepare you for a shootout in a parking lot, etc. etc. etc.

If you want to be prepared to handle a parking lot scuffle or a bar fight, literally just pick a martial art. So long as you're practicing full-contact sparring and the focus of the training is actual self-defense, you're going to be better off than 100% of untrained people. That said, there are few martial arts that actually instruct with full-contact sparring for the purpose of self-defense anymore. Any kind of martial art that actually competes in a full-contact sport is going to do this, though, so consider
>boxing/kick-boxing/muay thai
>grappling like BJJ, collegic/folk-style, judo
but literally all of it is based on shit that absolutely works, you just have to find a good school.
A good test: if the school doesn't demand rigorous physical training, skip it. It's a McDojo.

Unironically, if you can find a HEMA school that intends to make students who go to competitions, consider checking them out. Most of these places are teaching the same movements/techniques you'd find in other full-contact fighting sports like fencing, BJJ/judo, etc., but just calling it HEMA. A lot of it can basically be MMA training. Same rule applies though - if the school doesn't require a rigorous physical training regimen, it's bogus and a waste of time. Of course, you'd be hard pressed to find such a school outside Europe.

>every MMA gym is the same
Go to a better one if yours sucks

I boxed for 7 years. Carded amateur, 19 fights. I'm 5'10 and currently weigh 195. Mighty Mouse would destroy me within a minute, unless I somehow got lucky and starched him with an overhand right or an uppercut as he went for the takedown. I lose that fight 99 times out of 100. You're delusional if you think otherwise.

I thought HEMA is just about medival weapons training?

Thanks for your advice, guy.

No it wouldn't. Huge professional fighters have fights have fights with smaller men all the time and get blown the fuck out. UFC didn't even have weight classes for years because there's no need for those until all fighters are identical jiujitsu homos.

COPE

My boomer father could lay him out, let alone me lmao. He'd get ripped in half even if he was bigger.

This right here is a literal retard
>my dad could beat you up!
My god the retardation is huge

N

Manlet detected

I mentioned my dad because he's a pretty strong guy who goes to the gym, and thanks to our superior family genes, he looks better after going to the gym for only 1 year than people going for years. We develop muscle very quickly, and don't lose it at all even if we stop training. At all. He's been going for 2 years now, and could break the manlet nigger's back in half.

Why did I mention him again? Because he's 10 times weaker than me. If he could lynch a nigger with ease, it wouldn't even be a fight for me lmao.

get in my guard bro

>tfw no manlet warrior bf

>all these people ITT that don't understand the context of street fighting.

6'6 250 lbs, former private security for an ER/currently a psychiatric nurse. Practiced judo for about 6 years, and wrestled in high school and did a little boxing.

I think I'd win 6 out of 10 fights. Getting slammed in the ring isn't the same as getting slammed into a solid floor. Throwing a punch is pretty different when you can't get good grip with your feet. And I know a lot more dirty tricks than a UFC fighter.

i'm 5'11 170lbs he would probably win by any means he wanted. I don't train any sort of fighting and the only contact sports i played were in highschool. He probably knocks around guys my size all the time in the gym while he's training.

>currently a psychiatric nurse

Any crazy stories?

Makes me cringe to think about it but
>two clients get in a fight and a tooth gets knocked out/lost
>look everywhere for that rogue tooth but it has vanished
>next 48 hours, a THIRD client who witnessed the fight starts having unexplained fever and heart problems
>history of psychosis and paraphillic behaviors made him think it was a good idea to put a shattered tooth in his urethra

He survived but he did not learn to stop putting stuff in his dick and showed up every few weeks.

Fun times.

>my dad can lift weights that are heavy
>that means he somehow is a good fighter

Holy shit lmao.

I roll with a semi ok mma fighter. His w:l ration is 2:1. I wrestled in college and outweigh him by 40 pounds. Granted im trash at bjj. Im still convinced he would demolish me 99 times out of 100 having rolled w him about 10 times. We arent even close. Im shredded and bench 3 plate for 3

How did the dick tooth cause heart problems and fever?

Wut.

Please post more.

He already had damage to his urethra because of chronic masturbation. The tooth apparently penetrated into this tissue and introduced a massive amount of bacteria. Massive untreated bacterial infections cause cardiac problems.

Someone fucked up because it should have been caught but his conditioned worsened/sepsis. He was lucky to survive.

Lmfao bro youd get fucked up so quick."I know dirty tricks" he would double leg you so fast and youd be back wondering how you fucked up to your only being varsity because you were the only fatass to fit the heavyweight class

Just because you can lift a balanced bar in a controlled environment with proper leverages doesnt mean you are a good fighter against a resisting opponent or understand anything about all the factors of striking and grappling. All it means is you can lift weight in an ideal setting.

*chronic URETHRAL masturbation with other objects

Boxing is good, but it’s limited to hell and back with 6 punches. That’s part of why it’s good

He’s fighting this month

had me worried there

t. chronic masturbator

Mighty Mouse is probably closer to 145 lbs walkaround weight.

I'm 5'5 but work in the oil Field's so I'm sure my insane retard strength would be enough to whoop him

>what is reach?
Yes it can be overcome, and yeah, reach doesn’t really matter on the ground or when grappling, but when a guy can punch you five inches further away than you can punch him, it’s a problem

I would have thought the bacteria would just make his dick rot and fall off desu, but that makes sense.

>you need training to defeat a manlet several times smaller than you
The absolute state of this board.

T. Never trained

Go ahead big boy, I bet you could TOTALLY take down chad and brad as long as your speed and technique are superior.

Absolutely not. The vast majority of Jow Forums would get fucked up by DJ one way or another.

T. Never trained

It is obvious a trained fighter will beat an untrained one.

Size is only a factor if you know what you're doing with it

I would crush him

First of all. I have over 200 pounds onthe fucking guy. And although I dont workout or train fighting wise. I'm pretty strong (I lift heavy boxes at my job in I.T)

what is he going to do agaisnt a 375 pound, 5'9 male?

The idea of grappling is you can use it against large opponents.

He would probably do a BJJ take down and out maneuver you in wrestling to choke you because you dont know what to counter on the ground

I think he was joking

I'm 250 pounds heavier than him. Bring it

Push you over and roll you into a pigpen?

>falling for b8
Bad user, bad

Your dad would get his shit kicked in and your pussy ass would get your shit kicked in as well

Rule of thumb I've heard is every 25lbs means you have to be twice as good as the guy your fighting. So with 100lbs (assuming user isn't fat) it's a pretty significant gap to overcome unless he's an absolute tard

Based alpha

Fuck you. Yeah I'm " technically"obese at 375 pounds at 5'9 but I'm probably healthier than you

Settle down, little guy. I'm sure your mommy must be around here somewhere.

>a trained human could totally beat an untrained bear, guys!
Keep up the cope.

Hi fatass, your dad’s a little bitch and he raised a little bitch son

kek

> a creature that weighs over a ton and has knives and teeth that would also function as knives, and which has been in constant conflict to survive is the same as a guy who weighs around a 200lbs and has never been in a fight and thinks his highschool scuffle makes him tough
Ok

Shush, mister! Who taught you to say bad words like that? Your parents should take away your toys as punishment!

I dunno why don’t you go get your daddy to take care of it for you. God you’re a faggot for immediately hiding behind your dad

?

Nah, we're not the same. A bear is still weaker than me. If an average guy could rip it's jugular and beat it to death with a stick, I would rip off it's paws off and beat it to death with them. But you get the analogy. You can't compare nigger manlets to fully grown humans, user.

I hope one day someone arranges that fight for you

It depends on weightclass but fighters walk around 20-40lbs above their weightclass.

Jon "Bones" Jones fights at 205 but walks around at 240

Romero fights at 185 but walks around 210

Grizzlies can go up to 1000lbs though, although most large ones are around 700-800
>constant conflict to survive in an environment where no animal can do shit to it
What are other bears numbnuts

I hope too, user. Humans are just pussies, that's why they get mauled to half death when a bear attacks them. Especially the weak pussies here on Jow Forums who wouldn't dare say shit to anyone in real life, especially me. If an average joe fighting for his life can kill a bear, so can everyone.

Probably not.
