jiu-jitsu fighter

um smith and wesson, I live in canada, where people are not allowed to carry mace, guns, etc.... don't know where your from, and thats a great suggestion......not.

ok , i wasn't clear, i was in a group of 5 friends, and they were 10, and 2 of my friends would have run away , leaving, us 3 to defend ourselves. better?

thug hits you its another term for streetfighting, hes trying to be funny. pronounce it slowly. thug hits u or thug hits you. what a clown that guy is.

I would have thrown them, also, bjj is not only on the ground. and i had 2 friends.

doktervet, thats true, until royce gracie got a hold of him.

I have been scratched in a fight before, but never bitten LOL

This past weekend , I was downtown with a few f riends ,around 5, and there we were walking down the street, just us ,the street was empty than this other group of guys around 10 of them, approaches us and starts to argue with a friend of mine. (they wante to start a brawl), seeing as how my friends are, at least 2 of them would have ran, leaving 3 of us to fight a group of 10 guys( approx 18-19) and im 17. I study brazilian jiu-jitsu and im good, and I have average below average striking skills. My other friends are not martial artists, so thank g-d we talked our way out of it. but how would you guys have handled the situation? P.S. I can only handle one guy at a time and the only availible weapons were my handheld kubaton, no sticks etc... on the street.

if you can beat him up, and he attacks you ,than beat him up, and end it

ask kaju_influenced about it ,tombstone.

lots of styles. my preference is jkd hand strikes (fists,elbows,palms)

they trained each other, bkj1216, some people refer to tang soo doo as karate,

kle1n, i went to your site, and im like , k , why do i not understand this , oh ya , cuz its in german where is the "english" button, if there is one

arnis is kali is escrima, they have different names, becasue of the different regions, in the philipines. my sifu/guro/master, is the kali representative for the canadian, kali organisation. and he was an original dog brother, so i have asked him your questions many times b4. he told me he teaches single stick as well as striking andd grappling to beginners. kali also has standing locks, throws, etc... grappling in kali is called dumog. You need to talk to your instructor and ask alot of questions, and ask him who he is certified under, and ask him who he is associated with. hope this helps

YES IT IS

BJJ ROCKS, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

because the double is not my style, its too heavy for me and tough

meh, BJJ, gotta agree with you Dober,

flailing limbs, holla back, montrealer representin!!

good point yoda, never thought of it like that. and yes, sure you don't wanna pull guard in the street, in a perfect world , you won't have to , but its necessary for alot of situations. and yes i can see myself using chokes and jointlocks in a fight , absolutely. bjj was custom made for the street. and just because people don't think of stand-up stuff when it comes to bjj, theres plenty to be found. like shoulder throws,hip throws, and plenty of sweeps. and when bjj practice throws, they only care about, the guy being beaten, not about which one looks better and can get them more points like in judo.

why don't you want, bjj or judo, im pretty sure theres a good jeet kune do, organisation out there in germany

My sifu/guro/master, teaches 8 classes maybe 9 but he has all the credentials on his walls, and hes friends with erik paulson and dan inosanto, so im not worried,about wether hes a fake. you have to ask alot of questions though about everything.

I must agree with tjs , i have that book, its very good.

my friends don't even start with me anymore, but its hilarious because for my own amusement i teach them each a different move and they use it on each other.

of course, didn't see your signature. good for you on the bjj brown belt, im halfway there for my blue belt

johnny s, i completely forgot about that i know a kneebar from there , like nogueira tried using on guy mezger, the guy is still standing and you sort of crawl up his leg and kneebar him. very advanced technique, but good response CONGRATULATIONS WE HAVE A WINNER
