I get so tired of hearing these same non-arguments about "the street." We get people from "the street" coming in all the time thinking they can beat us is there's "no rules." I let them fight me with "no rules" and the result is always the same - I still hand their asses to them. These "street fighters" generally have never picked up a weight in their life or actually ran a mile outside of the crap they did in high school physical education classes. They eat like shit. They have no form or fighting instincts and they try to do crap they see in the movies. The idea of the badass "street fighter" it's a MYTH.
I train for 3-4 hours six days a week. My cardio is better than 90% of people. My punches are cleaner. My guard is tighter. I'm faster, stronger and yes -- my fight instincts are much more honed because I'm used to getting attacked. My shins and elbows are conditioned as fuck. If I Thai kick your leg, your knee is getting f*cked up.
No random average person, unless they have a gun or knife, is going to approach me and win a fight.
Sparring, competing and training prepares your body and mind for being attacked. What does the average person so everyday to prepare themselves? Nothing, absolutely nothing. That's why they get so winded and worn out within seconds of a fight and resort to trying to grab you.
Listen, people -- the "badass street fighter" that's going to take down a person who fights and trains everyday is a MYTH.
