street fight v.s. mma tactics for f.c. fighters

[jubaji]

We train with gear.
We use face shields so we can go full force.
We drill application and spontaneous reaction.
We do not break eachothers legs in training.
We emphasize control with joints to keep people training.
We experiement with new techniques and ideas.
We spar standing, we spar on the ground, we spar both.
We do not "comply" with one another, because we are sparring and each wants to "win" the match.
We do not spar point sparring.
We spar continious.

Great. Sounds like there is nothing preventing you from competing then.

Be like the nature of a plagiarist and steal other people's words, no matter how cliched they have become.

Those words are THE TAO. Lau Tzu is dead, and it is all public domain. Just because Bruce Lee made them "popular" and well known does not mean they are "his" words.

The point is, they are not yours banal-boy.

no, the point is. you have no point, your just trying to goad me into useless banter with you.

Do you have a crush on me? Are you going to start pulling my hair, and make faces at me in class, just like Jr. High School? lol!

I see you've definately got anger issues, and you don't listen or understand what is said to you. Here's something elese you won't understand:

He who stands on tiptoe is not steady.
He who strides cannot maintain the pace.
He who makes a show is not enlightened.
He who is self-righteous is not respected.
He who boasts achieves nothing.
He who brags will not endure.
According to followers of the Tao,
These are extra food and unneccassary luggage.
They do not bring happiness.
Therefore followers of the Tao avoid them.

I know these words are probably a waste on you. But others may like it.

Oh, I have no point? So, those were your own words then? Is that what you are saying?

okay I was sitting around sipping from a fo'ty when I realized how completely different my tactics would be during a street fight v.s how I would fight in an mma or k.b. m.t. w.b. f.c. tkd or b.n.k. fight. in sport combat I would use the jab alot set things up worry about takedown defense ect. ect. ect..
Whereas in a street fight I would only maybe jab once then explode with non-stop crosses and hooks until I got a hold of the guy then clinch, try to stay on my feet and dirty box, head but, try to bite his throat out and go for a standing choke or a slam to injure preferablity on his head, neck, or shoulder, then finish off with my knee on his neck like the cops do then pound him in the base of the skull until he quits moving. I know this whole topic is some what obvious and over simplistic but I think it's helpful to examine the street fight v.s. combat sport paradigm from time to time. Any imput would be helpful. btw is it just me or is the ufc getting extremely perdictible latle I'm like 90% accurate about who's going to win each fight.

Streetfight - get the guy on the ground and stomp him out... Simplistic, I know, but that's how they go... **** that biting eye gouging shit, that's for pussies. Most streetfights are just drunkards being idiots anyway... If your life is REALLY in danger, better have a weapon.

See, you may feel good about yourself because you think that posting that makes you look 'deep,' but the effect is exactly the opposite.
