i've only learned to use my elbows for now =)
but i already feel that i can send out a decent blow wiht it all alone.
of course it still doesnt compare to a straight right, but i would say its pretty good considering the amount of effort and distance it takes

bbbb

So how are you going to use the elbow on the big guy?

oh i meant using my elbow/tricep to punch.. instead of my whole body..

=D

-JON =D

martialartist88

i think the best strategy is to be explosive... take him down in the least time possible... a bit risky.. but i think is the best.... step in.. follow center line.. do palm strikes to nose or chin.. or punch him in the throat.. do them rapidly... oh yea.. before you do that.. approach with a quick but effective kick to his knee...... no matter how big anyone is.. i dont htink they'll be able to stand hits to the throat..

just my opinion =D

man...big guys get freaked out when you bum rush them. Seeing a little guy that's smiling with the idea of kicking the shit out of them for fun really imasculates them. And so will a scoop kick followed by a knee to the balls, then you just rally with punches or bitch slaps, whatever suits the occasion, and knee them or kick them in the face when they drop to their knees.

I'm gonna throw some Sh_t into this game. Why don't you try and take the giant to the ground like the Jujitsu guys do and just hope he doesn't have ground skills.

Wow!! You would leave your life and health to chance? As the old cliché goes never under estimate your opponent.

In my opinion you should never willingly go to the ground especially against a much larger opponent (If the fight does go to the ground, of course its important that you are well trained for this situation).

Understanding distance is key along with keeping a cool head, there are areas of the body, which is difficult to build muscle these are your areas to strike, (It does not matter how big or small the opponent) such as throat or the ribs underneath the arms.

Also, never depend on a one strike K.O. on the street this rarely happens and therefore you should always train multiple counters.

LOL How about for the same reason you don't stand in front of him in a boxing stance and "just hope" he doesn't know how to box...?



:O

Hm.

"kick to the nuts" : if the guy you are fighting isn't a grampa, it isn't going to work, friend. People are pumped in a confrontation. The effects of the whole melange of hormones and enzymes and whatnot that the body pumps out in a confrontation are amazing. The guy won't feel it for 4 hours (and that isn't soon enough to protect you - if he was going to beat you before, he's going to mess you up something rotten now..) Not only that, but it is NATURAL to protect your throat, eyes, balls and knees. NATURAL. It is a reflex.

To make things worse, there are loads of police reports about women who slammed their knees repeatedly into a rapists exposed crotch, to no avail.
Tons of reports of men doing it to men, as well. It just isn't a magic "turn off" button.

It's still a good place to score, a great place, in fact! But it isn't the "danger button" that rape-protection-theorists make it out to be. Not at all.

What should the little guy know how to do? Simple.

-He needs to have game in all three ranges: stand up / clinch / ground.
He doesn't have to be a master of all three. But he better have game in each against such a larger man, if that man is determined to put him in the hospital.

-He needs to have a damned good ground game. Whoever said "Never go to ground with a larger man" needs to work on his own ground game some, IMO. If a smaller guy knows the ground better than the larger man, and can get him there (simple, the large guy will usually take it to the ground) the large guy will A) usually misuse his energy and gas really, really fast, and B) make SHITloads of mistakes along the way that allow for a quick submission/choke out.

-Why the good clinch game? Because the clinch is the position that decides "Do we keep standing and bang? Or do we drop to the street?" Not only that, but the clinch allows for some powerful strikes - attached hitting. More importantly than that - the standard big-untrained-guy tactic is to grab little dude and start mashing him with his free hand. So little guy needs to train this position, as big guy will go there everytime. That's ok, because training in the clinch will make a world of difference.

Of course, all of this confidence I'm putting in the little guy's corner is due to the big guy being, big, slow and untrained. Just a strong mullethead. Those guys are dangerous, no joke. But if little guy knows the clinch and the ground well, and some boxing on top of it, I have more fear for the big guy going to hospital.

I also have known people at 150 pounds who were extremely, scarily capable. I've witnessed them pick up guys that go well over 200, who are only trying to not get picked up.. I even saw him do it in an icy parking lot. It was like watching a man pick up an entire car by the front bumper. I never got used to it. It was always crazy to see. He just happenned to have been on Matt Hughes wrestling team in high school in cornfield Illinois. They were old "let's go to 7-11 and beat on some other meat-heads just like us" buddies.

So I've learned, with my own eyes, that little capable guys can be really, really capable. And what he said to me over and over was:

There's only two things to learn: A) How to control your own weight and B) how to control his weight for him.

Youre right about kicking the groin. We're taught that we shouldn't think about it. If you get the opportunity, of course take it, but you are going to unleash some really primitive attitudes if you try to take out a mans family jewels. Peoples conscious will turn off, and they will instinctively protect their lives. The adrenaline surge isn't worth it.
Like bodhisattva said;
There's only two things to learn:
A) How to control your own weight and
B) how to control his weight for him.
