hmmm there are many ways of takeing down a failing idot indeed for example you may want to do a side step,but if you opponent is doing like a haymaker sort of punch he may still be able hit you if you are not far enuf away .even tho his punches may still hit you they would be weatherd a %age and less effective however this would not work in a closed space such as a ally or a elevator(this has happend to me once )so in a suituation like this you may want to jest take a couple of powerless(due to the rapidness) ineffecctive (due to him missing you because his eyes are closed) punches,take a stable stance take you time to targent a vonerable place (such as a undevoloped tummy)and hit him hard there also jest useing a nice push can probably knock him off balance. also for a multipule person fight I rember a tecniuqe my DKF(drunken kung fu) teacher taut me that was made in the menjii era of edo japan for a single officer that was fighting multipule enemys bacsicly he would run while the opponents chased him .his opponents would spread out because of weaght differentes and speed and when they we abould 2 feet at the lest(depending on how you need to bring down an opponent) you would turn quickly and attack a single opponent and if the spread is large mabey anouther and repeat. the usefulness of this tecniuqe that you can take a grupe one on one though it requires you to be able to run fast and have stamina. My DKF teacher called this the foxcatching teckniqe do to what a fox dose to a grupe of roosters following it I hope that helps i could contribute more but im pretty god damn lazy now did I lose aney one excuse any bad spelling errors or grammer because im a bad seppelleer(speller)because i was doing martial arts insted of studying my spelling words in school
