You are reading it the wrong way. "Until the threat is gone" means until you can make you're escape. Until then you fight to win. As I said, you always should prefer the "flight" option, but if you couldn't do that before the fight, it is going to be difficult to do it during the fight. But if you beat him down enough to make you're escape (i.e. he hits the flor and rolls around), that is when the threat is gone. I make no reference to being macho, that is the LAST thing I would recommend. Comprende?
As for Geoff Thompson, yes. Most of the stuff is in his books, and he is right to state his own references when he is using someone else' ideas.
I'll be posting LESSON 2 in a few days.
