Is learning how to fight worth it?

The last time I got in a fight was in 7th grade. I really don't hang around in bad areas or with super drunk people. So is learning how to fight proper worth it? Has anyone here ever had to use legit fighting skills IRL? What fighting style would you recommend someone learn? Boxing, Muay Thai, BJJ? How would they translate to a street fight?

You can buy Bas Rutten Street Fighting and learn everything you need to know. Just practice those techniques over and over and over and you should do better than you would now..

realistically spending three months at any non meme boxing gym with actual coaches is more than enough to totally clean the clock of 95% of anybody willing to fight you in the street

If you want effectiveness in a streetfight, boxings the fastest way to get effective, although it’s limited and brain damage is a risk. Also expect stupid amount of cardio.
Really any
>boxing
>judo
>wrestling
>Muay Thai
And maybe if you have good takedowns
>BJJ
Grapplings good if you’re scared of brain damage.
>is it worth learning
Sure, being able to control the level of violence is a good skill to have, tueller drill is a thing for a reason, and the big one is that it’s good for helping you deal with confrontation, even if it never gets physical. Also you’ll get a social group of active healthy people, although that’s not exclusive to combat sports.
Also also, personally it’s made weightlifting more fun for me, as doing stuff like chasing aesthetics or big numbers never really appealed to me.

>learn from a book with kata-tier drills
No, what’ll actually happen is you get in a fight, then you freeze up do to pressure and end up throwing haymakers.

Due* not do

You suffering from brain damage already I see user..

Just carry a knife (if its legal oc) and see how years of chinese meme sports bleed dry when you are being attacked (something, something self defence).

>muh knife self defence

this is probably a good idea too. in any kind of neighborhood where you have to actually defend yourself odds are good 90% of the population are walking around with a knife anyway.

>only time i was ever jacked and knew kung fu

well thats the main reason I avoid confrontation because life is hard enough without having to beat up some retard just to get raped by the modern police state. decades ago the cops would just let you go home if you white and cool nowadays they’ll knee you on the curb and you’ll get fired and shit

Again, not really my experience, but I live in state with stand your ground laws and castle laws, so as long as you don’t shoot anybody, the cops tend to be mostly relaxed

Baby shark do do do do

>being scared of words
Why?

Watch the episode of xaier renegade angel where he fights his inner psyche and just memorize the insults from that
>you're about as shallow as a bowl of soup, and your tongue is as sharp as a soup spoon
then do a jojo pose

If you love soup so much, why don't you marry soup?

>you feed that nigga thundercookies till the oven is full

I have absolutely no idea what thundercookies are but I'm laughing my ass off.

has anyone gotten here in a street fight as an adult?

>Just carry a knife (if its legal oc)
>if its legal
shut the fuck up soi boi

I wouldn't recommend anything on the floor. The guys friends will try to stomp you.

>why
couldn't tell ya,sometimes they strike in the right places and sometimes they fly over and I just am like what the fuck's the point, i dont say it out loud but thats what i think and i can't respond and insecurity comes in and people laugh at me for being a cuck that cant defend himself.
so insecurity i guess, no idea how to go about fixing.

this is fucking good haha

Im not looking to get into fights but i'm not taking any shit either so i've had some proper fights.

One time i was at a party when some drunk guy bottled my friend from behind over a chick. I punched the guy on the jaw and didn't stop punching as he went down until one of his friends soccerkicked me in the ribs. I caught his jeans when he kicked me again and did a very sloppy single leg takedown and started stomping him in the face and chest until security dragged me away. My friend got hurt the worst with facial scares and twenty stitches.

Another time some asshole was acting like a dick while surfing so i called him out and he called me a bitch and basically said "yeah i know i'm stealing all of the waves what are you gonna do about it?" I just waited for him on the beach. When he got out of the water we started punching each other. Fuck he hit hard. I started clinching and he just grabbed my long hair and jerked me around on it. I fell down and he was all over me. Held my hair with one arm and pummelled me with the other but i blocked all his punches with my arms. When i stood up i needed to use my hands to get up so i ate two heavy punches from him. I managed to break his grip on my hair and did a double leg takedown. I was then sitting on top of his belly and punching him which is why he turned around exposing his back to me and i slung my hand around his neck from behind and locked in a chokehold. Didn't let go until he stopped moving.

Another time i was at a party and some drunk tourist slapped my sister's ass. I punched him in the nose and next thing i know someone grabs me from behind and holds me tight while the guy whose nose i just fucked up holds his hand to his nose, sees the blood, looks up to me and starts beating the ever living shit out of me. He kicked me in the balls and punched me in the face like ten times before security showed up.

Just break the dudes arm and stand up, if you haven’t taken him out of the fight in under 5 seconds after hitting the ground you shouldn’t be going to the ground

>just break the guys arm
loooool

All this internet tough guy fighting shit is fueled by insecure teenagers who think that they will become the hero with people clapping and girls throwing their panties at them - CRINGE.

Martial arts is a god tier hobby and an easy way to make friends

It’s better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in war.

BJJ is good for getting yourself off the floor too, but it should be learnt with striking.

Most people willing to fight as an adult are unstable people you can gauge pretty easily. Either you get whooped by someone way bigger or it’s your typical thug or druggie any grown man could whip around.

This, a knife destroys martial artists and will put you at way smaller disadvantage against armed thugs.
Just get jacked and carry a knife, martial arts are for suckers, guess what you're still gonna get fucked in court for using self defense if you are a martial artist and you will be considered dangerous to society anyway, might as well carry something that will destroy anyone no matter how tough they are.

ok user you obviously don't surf so i will explain to you what the problem was here.

There is a very limited amount of good waves that one can take while surfing, like maybe one every fifteen minutes. Imagine 40 people in the water and all of them want to surf that wave. You will understand where the problem is.

That's why there is a policy in place that says whoever surfs the wave first is the only guy to surf that wave. This guy however completely disregarded this policy and took each and every good wave, doing what we call a drop-in on me multiple times.

It's the gym equivalent of walking up to someone mid set, tearing their weights out of their hands and doing reps in front of them while staring them in the eye. There's no bigger fuck you than dropping in on somebody in surfing, and he did it nonstop and even had the nerve to insult me when i told him to cut the crap.

I mean, i get that us being on Jow Forums and such you are a beta basedboy who never stood up for himself in his life, but if you really think i'm stupid for putting this douchebag in his place then you should just off yourself.

>implying it’s hard to break a dudes arm with a throw
You can do it by fucking accident man

There's more precedent protecting you if you shoot them in Burgerland

>guess what you're still gonna get fucked in court for using self defense if you are a martial artist and you will be considered dangerous to society anyway
No one does this, where do you all live? California or Sweden? Seriously where do you live that they have such a rod up their ass over a street fight?

>How would they translate to a street fight?
You should take self defense classes that have full contact sparring, the teachers, if they are good, will teach you different things from all styles based on whats actually practical in a real fight. You could also take an mma class, lots of people who start mma are coming from another discipline so you get really good variation.

why is everyone sayingg kives are the best self defense weapon? surely if you're going to try to go lethal it's easier to go with a gun. why not bring a baton, with the option to do large amounts of damage or superficial damage, with a bonus that you'd probably actually use it as intended rather than pulling out a knife and then not knowing what you want to do with it, so you just end up pussyfooting about

Have you seen those videos on liveleak where two guys stab each other 40 times until one of them collapses? If you stab someone who does boxing or judo or mma w/e, you're only gonna get in 10 stabs at the most, and usually that's lethal but sometimes not quick enough for you to get out of danger. If the person has 30 seconds to live, and think they're gonna die but still wanna fight you, then you're 100% gonna get your head stamped on until your brain gets exposed, or choked out until your brain dies.

If you want self defense get a knife to threaten people, or get a gun if you want to actually kill without dying.

Yes, not necessarily for the fighting itself, but knowing how to fight changes who you are as a person.
Even if you never have a fight it's worth knowing you could.

Legitimately learn how to fight.
You don't talk shit back because you know you can't back it up.

>or get a gun if you want to actually kill without dying.

KEK

There is a police training video that shows that even if you have a gun and the other dude comes rushing at you with a knife chances are pretty high that he will fuck you up.

I hope that fag got brain damage from being choked out. What a cunt.

Don't learn how to fight to get into fights - learn how to fight to know your limits.
No one is harmless, and no one is bulletproof. You are stronger than you know and people break easier than you'd think.
People who say "I could never hurt anyone" are the most dangerous people out there, because they've never tried to hurt anyone, they've never learned restraint - They are the person you hear about on the news who killed someone by bashing their head in with a brick, because it never occurred to them that they could hit someone hard enough to kill them, or that slamming a brick into someone's temple would do just that

Yes. Its an absolute necessarity for self confidence and being able to withstand stress. One you percieve yourself as Warrior, all problems faced become trivial.

buy a gun, get a concealed carry
