Me too. It is a Truth.

hardball,
i asked afriend what would be a lesson he'd teach a complete novice, if he could only teach one technique, what would it be?
his reply, "How to sucker punch someone."
- - If you hit him hard, where you want to, and get the effect you want, whatever you're doing, you're doing it right.

There's a reason it's called "sucker punch"... Only a complete SUCKER would let a potential hostile unknown get close enough to engage.Originally Posted by shuyun
There is some wisdom to be found in surprise and ambush tactics.
The range of any engagement will vary by the weapon used. Tanto or ICBM? What's "critical" LOL
"In all countries where personal freedom is valued, however much each individual may rely on legal redress, the right of each to carry arms - and these the best and the sharpest - for his own protection in case of extremity, is a right of nature indelible and irrepressible, and the more it is sought to be repressed the more it will recur."
James Paterson
Deception to some, sucker punch to others. I vote "Deception."
non telegraphic attacks with an air of nonchalance. suppression of body language is part of it.
if you don't present a threat there is little chance for preparation. only a complete paranoid delusional would be on guard 24/7.
must be very tiring.

A sucker punch usually follows verbal escalation..........................

I've seen more sucker punches on the basketball courts during pickup games than anyother place. Once the verbal assault starts you better take a couple of steps backwards to get out of sucker punch range. I know a fellow martial artist who would rather take a couple steps forward and get right in a guys face. Same thing different philosophy.

do you have a favorite range?
i prefer closing the gap 7 times out of 10. smothers most kicks and i like my left hook

I prefer to get in and rip to the body.
Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves. Albert Einstein
When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity.

Stay away (out of HH weapons range/kick range). But, when YOUR mind (and experience) says: time to go. Better not hesitate.
I prefer up close and personal, I hate the nervous anticipation, so let’s get down to business. The better man wins.
[" And although we may do our best to avoid trouble, sometimes trouble insists on finding us. When that happens......when the time for talk is over, warriors act. They flip the switch and act decisively - ruthlessly if necessary - to preserve and defend the things that they hold dear."
