Ok this dude is the (former) ufc flyweight champion demetrius johnson. Hes 5'3(160cm) 125lbs(57kg) 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.
Jordan Anderson
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.
Wyatt Robinson
At a lower center of gravity, it's much easier for a small man to topple someone over.
Nathan Evans
He would literally smash 99% of men
Christopher Perry
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?
Liam Johnson
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
Adrian Powell
>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.
Eli Phillips
Why is everyone being realistic in this thread? I'm 5'11" and 185 pounds and would fucking destroy this manlet easy
Landon Cruz
I'd just give him an atomic wedgie and stuff him in a locker lmao
Julian Sanders
It would actually be really funny to have him fight some untrained lanklet in some freakshow fight
Liam Flores
could he defeat boogie in a fight to the death?
Anthony Rivera
>Has to superman jump to crack me in the jaw
Blake Lee
Kind of related but what is the best martial art to train for fights? Just straight boxing? Is muay thai any good?
I’m 5’9” 175 lbs. I would kill this dude he is too light to hurt me.
Hunter Long
Why not MMA?
Nathan Flores
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.
Chase Rivera
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
Dylan Wright
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.
Ryan James
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.
Jeremiah Brown
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.
Angel Cox
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.
Brody Ramirez
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.
Caleb Stewart
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.
Logan Davis
This dude could fucking kill you easily
Evan Lopez
>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
Sebastian Powell
NO PEPE DON'T SAY IT
Jack Walker
>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.
Oliver Powell
>every MMA gym is the same Go to a better one if yours sucks
Michael Evans
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.
Mason Carter
I thought HEMA is just about medival weapons training?
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.
James Ramirez
COPE
Blake Sullivan
My boomer father could lay him out, let alone me lmao. He'd get ripped in half even if he was bigger.
Michael Hill

Manlet detected
Austin Morris
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.
>all these people ITT that don't understand the context of street fighting.
Aaron Myers
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.
Jack Hernandez
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.
John Flores
>currently a psychiatric nurse
Any crazy stories?
Jason Lee
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.
Daniel Rodriguez
>my dad can lift weights that are heavy >that means he somehow is a good fighter
Holy shit lmao.
Jason Baker
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
Cameron Carter
How did the dick tooth cause heart problems and fever?
Aiden Anderson
Wut.
Please post more.
Aiden Miller
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.
Liam Torres
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
Easton Lewis
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.
Grayson Miller
*chronic URETHRAL masturbation with other objects
Hudson Sanchez
Boxing is good, but it’s limited to hell and back with 6 punches. That’s part of why it’s good
Mighty Mouse is probably closer to 145 lbs walkaround weight.
Jaxon Hughes
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
Owen Mitchell
>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
Alexander Collins
I would have thought the bacteria would just make his dick rot and fall off desu, but that makes sense.
Sebastian Foster
>you need training to defeat a manlet several times smaller than you The absolute state of this board.
Go ahead big boy, I bet you could TOTALLY take down chad and brad as long as your speed and technique are superior.
Dylan Fisher
Absolutely not. The vast majority of Jow Forums would get fucked up by DJ one way or another.
Josiah Diaz
T. Never trained
Logan Cook
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
Isaiah Price
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?
Andrew Bell
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
Logan Lopez
I think he was joking
Jaxon Gonzalez
I'm 250 pounds heavier than him. Bring it
Leo White
Push you over and roll you into a pigpen?

Christopher Moore
Your dad would get his shit kicked in and your pussy ass would get your shit kicked in as well
Alexander Brown
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
Michael Adams

> 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
Ayden Moore
Shush, mister! Who taught you to say bad words like that? Your parents should take away your toys as punishment!
Joseph Ward
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
Gabriel Watson

Jayden Wilson
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.
Ah b8, sorry about that have fun shitposting. I’m sure you’ll reply one more time to this post JUST to feel like you’ll get the last word, but I won’t reply to you.
>knives and teeth that would also function as knives >bears weighing over a ton when the average is around half a ton for most polar bears >constant conflict to survive in an environment where no animal can do shit to it Retards thinking they are smarter than other retards, what else is new.
Jayden Diaz
im 5'11 and 175 but that doesn't fucking matter since he is actually a world class fighter and i have zero training. he would beat me
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
Michael Martinez
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.
