Yeah, I agree that in a fight there will be grabbing and pushing, but what if you're trained in Aikido or Hapkido?

Both those arts have very good techniques in redirecting an attack. When an untrained (Untrained because people simply can't expect to fight anyone with martial arts. Most martial artists don't start fights. And even if they're trained, they'll only have a little bit of training.) street attacker goes for a tackle, he will be immediately directed (and usually a submission hold will be applied right afterwards). And since people who pick fights don't really know how to fight, they won't really know how to tackle.
