Because "out of range" isn't an option.
I would attempt to get in very close (elbow range or closer) and strike until it was over, or get in very close, start striking and then wake up in the hospital
Either way elbow range for me!!!
In my experience, folks often don't know what to do when you get that close, clinch and knee -knee -knee! Then ROAR LOUDLY AS THEY COWER IN FEAR AAAARERRGHHHHH!!! um yeah, so clinch and knee - which also makes leg sweeps and hip throws easier.
I'll admit it, I'm the one person who voted long range. Reason being that as a 5'4 female, my fighting style is "don't get hit," as opposed to some big guys I know that will get hit a bunch of times so they can hurt their opponent more.
Obviously the situation will dictate range and one should be comfortable in a wide variety of ranges, but I like the mobility, ability to evade effectively, etc.
Use attack as your indestructable spiritual strength.
Awareness is the spirit.
Attack is the foundation of thought.
Attack like thunder from the heaven's.
Retreat like dust of the earth.
I'm going with knee/elbow range:

I like the knee/elbow range. Not meaning I use a lot of it. But there are a lot of different strikes that you could deliver to your opponent at this range. And as mentioned earlier this is good for sweeps and a good take down technique. And if he takes me down, Im confident of my ground skills.
nice answer the situation will dictate range and you should have a comfortable feeling with all ranges but its human instinct to prefer one over the other.If opponent has great jab his defence is tight then you dont really want to be at a punching range with him.Its probably wise to get in close elbow knee sweep etc the closer you get to a person the greater the damage you are able to inflict this also gives you an opportunity to end it quicker if you are prepared.
Dream, allow you body to do it's thing, the thing you trained it to do, it responds on instict... so why let the mind interfere or second guess... let your mind dream, where anything is possible... be open and creative, new moves will arise from new understanding... more precise, less distractions... love happiness, light as a feather, limitless energy to become all your intentions.
But if need be I'm sure I can do some smell-you- breath close range kicks maybe to the chin or nose and get decent power out of them, admitidly I've never tried to kick anyone like that though, I'll proably end up kneeing myself in the chest in the process and whine and btch. lol
