Well, most people would say that he would simply stab the guy
But the truth is that anyone can fall back into bad brawling if they don't believe in their training. And a student can't and will not believe in his training if he hasn't tested it under extreme pressure.
What you ask is like asking a police officer or army sniper "How do you continue to use tactics even when the heat is turned up?"
Its all in the training. The training has to be alive. It has to have pressure. It has to first teach you the worst case scenarios, and then put you in those scenarios with people who will attack you with real force. You have to know what it is to be hit hard. You have to know what it is to be choked out. You have to know the fear of being accosted by more than one person. You have to know what it is to feel an adrenaline dump. You have to know what its like to throw your best shot and it pay no dividends. But most of all you must learn how not to quit. You have to drill all these scenarios over and over for years until you become desensitized to the fear that these situations bring and become more focused on following through with a course of action.
Its
ALL in the training. That's why there are no brawling tactics in RBSD. At least not in mine. Brawling uses up most if not all of your energy in less than 60 seconds. There are no macho boxing exchanges. Its all about the dirty fighter mindset, not the fair fight mindset.
When you think like a fair fighter, you're actually giving you're opponent a chance. Exchanging. Respecting distance and power. When you begin to think like a dirty fighter, you look for every opportunity to tear the life out of the man in front of you. You respect no rules. No distance. No unspoken agreements. You dig deep and get ready to do your worst. You use any and everything to inflict as much damage as you can. And what makes it much worse for the other guy is that you've been training under pressure to do your worst.
When you think like a dirty fighter, judo jibboo, you won't allow yourself to brawl because you'd be giving too much to your opponent. Even if he blindsided you, as long as he doesn't knock you out, you control your emotions and try your best to keep the distance and get inside where you've trained to use your tools.
