All fighting is only done if you don't got a strap or knife but most people will just jump and beat you to death. Its not a movie. No one is gonna respect you because you beat up the homies. Gangs and crews today respect the killers and those who bring income thats it. Organized crime like the mafia doant really exist in the u.s. anymore in large scale because of R.I.C.O. even crips/bloods/gds/bds/latin kings/mob ect.

@@melov4 You are out of your mind if you actually believe that. This isn’t the 1960’s, gang members and mobsters don’t waste their time with fist fighting.

People don’t become drug lords and mob bosses because they’re good at fighting. That’s absurd. They take those positions of power by being aggressive and willing to kill people who get in their way.

[@Jmotwa87]

I think there’s some confusion about being a tough guy. The physical ability isn’t what this is about. It’s about their ability to do awful things that say woody could never get himself to do.

Before watching the video I'd say that to climb the ladder and survive in an enviroment of so much violence you need to be hard.
