I've been reluctant to post this story because it is nothing to be proud of, but what the hell.
It took place about a month ago in Eugean, OR. Some friends of mine and I rented an RV to go down to watch the Husky vs Ducks game. We left on a Friday. Now I'll cut out all the drinking stuff and get straight to the fight(now it's early Sat morning 2:30-2:45).
The four of us had just left the bar when we were approached my two guys. One was super drunk and could hardly walk and was sluring his words (call him Drunk Guy) The other guy we will call Crazy Guy(you can see where this is going!)
The Drunk Guy approcaches my friend Paul and is acting very drunk but jovial(sp?)Paul and him are shaking hands. Paul is talking to the guy like you talk to a foreigner, because the dude was so drunk. I look at Crazy guy and for some reason he looked scared(I remember thinking this).
I turn my head away and as I look back the Crazy Guy cooled cocks Paul in the face right below the left eye. The punch was very hard and Paul(as well as everybody else was not expecting it)Paul gets knocked out and was bleeding below the eye(not serious). I'll try to speed this up.
The crazy guy starts swinging at my other friend Jon who puts up his hand and deflects all the punches. I start to approch the Crazy Guy and he starts swinging at me. I react slowly and he hits me on the side of my face. I was a little stunned, but now I have to do something.
I have not trained in two years and was not feeling very confident. As I approached the guy I made up my mind that i was going to kick him thinking this would bring his hands down to (1)give me better odds of punching (2)make it "easier to shoot".
I threw a low thai-kick that was full off Adrenalin and the guy hit the ground. the kick acted like a sweep or something. I was kind of shocked. Then I threw a weak punch that hurt my index knuckle. I then realized that we were in the middle of the street and cars were comming. The guy gets up and actually says "I liked that kick...that was a good kick" which makes me think he was on something.
No flying armbar, no take down to mount to armbar. No great decisive victory with a hot chick comming up to me. That my friends is a real fight( a lame one!!!!!) However, knowing the basics of an effective martial art(muy thai, BJJ,MMA)is a HUGE advantage over the average guy. And that is what you should get from this story. It tured the whole situation around.
Thai-Jitsu
P.S Paul was ok with a black-eye. We all were jokeing about over beers and breakfast later that morning.
