IcemanSK Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 There are worse things than not being a good street fighter. Being a good fighter is One thing. Being a good person is Everything. Kevin "Superkick" McClinton
Dont call me Sir Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 A real street fighter doesn't have this mentality, this is why I would never be a good street fighter.Ravenzoom, mate, I applaud your honesty, but you are capable of the fighter mentality, you've just got to train it, after all, you fight like you train.My suggestion would be to look into Canada's best Reality Based Self-Defence Instructor (though he doesn't like to be called that) Richard Dimitri (https://www.senshido.com). In my opinion he is the best in the world at what he does and his books/DVD's are worth their weight in gold. I was lucky enough to train under him when he visited the UK early last year. If I lived in Canada I would definatley train with him as often as I could, the guy is a legend.Good luck, mate.DCMS. "There's nothing wrong with my defence, you attacked me wrong!"
markusan Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 I would draw the line at any technique that draws blood. Not because it is ungentlemanly but because of the risk of hepatitis and HIV. That includes punching or striking the teeth, biting etc.

So, given the choice between imminent death (the attacker is armed with a knife) and the chance of HIV, which would you opt for in the spur of the moment? As for biting; Biting should be a bite (a painful 'pinch' produced by the teeth) to achieve a startle/flinch response, nothing more. Bite, don't eat. DCMS.
