Yup. That's why you should never hold back in a fight

[@redzone1019]

Very true. That is why I carry something to level the playing field. No sane person wants to unnecessarily get in a self-defense/street fight. But if you do, make sure that you have the tools to defend yourself. (Legally) Stay safe and healthy. Peace

@KvAT I had the same idea back in 1994(I remember The incident well) I'm leaning on a wall outside a club hand's in pockets looking cool 😎, fight starts next to me nothing to do with me But the friends of the person fighting thought I was,brief insult to me gave me Just enough time to grasp keys and absorb punch to face but Not avoid , brief instinctive 3 punch combo, house key hit guy just below left eye and Snapped of in cheek.... I had to climb on kitchen roof and through bathroom window to get to bed at 4AM.

[@internetuser3213]

When it comes to the Law, Jails, Court, lawsuits & Judges, things can get very stressful and not in your favor even if you are the victim and got punched first and then defended yourself and beat the crap out of the aggressor. Things can escalate so fast with the aggressor especially when he/she running their mouths. Do your best to avoid fights at all cause because nothing good can come out of it. It happened to me once as a victim and defended myself the aggressor went to the hospital and I became the bad guy.

Death by the palm strike to the nose! I had a Karate book my dad got overseas during the Korean war, it contained a section with strikes that kill. My favorite one was to punch in the armpit, which will make your opponent puke rice soup for 3 days, then die. Every technique had the victim experience an odd illness of sorts, and then within a specific time period, die. :)

[@QwEr-bx5ey]

never heard of such thing, seems interesting. however i wouldnt want to kill someone, i thing that knocking them out is enough, plus you can get in legal trouble because apparently you still get in trouble if you kill someone while they threaten your life...

Spinning back fist is supposed to be a recovery technique... NOT an opening technique. That's a good way to get hit in the "magic button". It's a whole lot more of an oh shit move, than a calculated intentional move. Here is a dumb move some think they can do. Any kind of high kick to the head. Kicks are for the lower half. Fists are for the upper half.

[@long-distancerecon6364]

Your Awesome though bro. You actually take it through with correct precision. And you break it down into workable elements. Thank you for that. Keep it up...

[@justin77782]

That spinning fist is a real thing I’ve seen so many untrained people trying it and ends very bad plus I think it’s pretty stupid unless you actually know what your doing you should never spin around it takes your eyes off target confuses you then you can’t see incoming danger and get beat up and embarrass your self.

[@KeithMosherSifu]

With many years of experience (training) under one's belt, it becomes really difficult to determine what "untrained" people will do. The spinning back fist, for example - would an untrained person really even consider it? Perhaps if they watch too many MMA fights or movies. It would seem most "untrained" - as in, no experience at all, not even street experience - would be very straight forward: Get in the face. Push / Shove. Swing the haymaker. Go for the tackle. Or ambush from behind. Anything else might imply SOME experience (though not necessarily good / proper experience).

[@counterkidnapping1737]

Agreed.

[@koreancowboy42]

Im untrained and I wouldn't use the spinning punch thingy unless it's very situational like it I missed I'd recover quick enough and throw a kick. Like well... I wouldn't say untrained now.... Cuz I only trained in wrestling, boxing, Muay Thai (only Abit but too advance for me) I was 14-16 and my brother was teaching me alot of things. Especially grappling as a starter since it's really good in street fights if the enemy doesn't expect it since most street fights is just punching and kicking or weird so called grapple then punching standing up. I meant like actually grapple take downs and locks. Then punches making them precise and not wasting breath unless it's necessary. On top of that, I play soccer last summer or something when my cousins, uncles and brother. We trained slot to get my leg muscles up so that I can play as a striker or something I forgot the positions or roles in soccer. But jeez my uncles have been playing for so many years when they were younger of course.they have much more powerful kicks than I do.

[@buzzardneckseahag]

After a really hard days work watching Dr. Mark Phillips’s video is the perfect remedy to get back into a good mood

[@binaryglitch64]

These are the steps I go through when street fighting: (Note: each step is progressed due to the failure of the step before it, except 2 to 3.) 1) Avoidance 2) Offering to take it to a gym so we don't get in trouble. 3) My training in arts of a martial nature. (BJJ, Shodan Ryu, Silat... also I've learn a few Judo throughs, and trained with a bo staff and may resort to a stick if necessary.) 4) Loosening gracefully / having good sportsmanship / learning to accept.

[@khalifahmuhammad1574]

I love your videos! Effective, simple and common sense. Please keep up the excellent work.

[@markshay]

As for things that don't work... You should talk about misconceptions that women have for self defence, like for example, many untrained women think that long fingernails will be effective against an attack by scratching or by digging the nails into an arm etc. Also many untrained women only rely on groin shots to save them. It'd be really interesting to hear your take specifically on women's self defence as so many videos online give women really bad advice 🙂👍

[@fightscience]

Good point, I completely agree. I did touch on this subject in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2bYdp2kadB5aa8. Although perhaps I should do a more comprehensive video on the topic. Let me know your thoughts.

[@markshay]

@@fightscience great points in that video you linked.. thanks. I would like to see your take on more detail for women's self defence. So far the best videos I've seen on the subject have been from a BJJ perspective, and from what I can tell you come from a Wing Chun background. I do too, and also teach women's self defence, but I also incorporate TKD, BOXING and BJJ. I'd be really interesting in seeing a women's self defence video from a dominate Wing Chun perspective and your no nonsense, straight forward style 🙂👍

@@oneshadowdragon I've missed my target with spinning back fist. Ended up grappling n dotted both their eyes to finish. It got messy. Sifu is right, there's too much your opponent can do to duck your strikes if your back is turned. In a pinch though, it was worth a try, but I totally missed what should have been an easy mark.

[@officialclownbusiness7788]

I've made someone piss blood with a spin kick before. They are indeed a very risky maneuver, but also extremely damaging on those rare occasions when a good one connects.

[@Garbox80]

I've witnessed it fail. Some 25 years ago we were hanging out downtown one night and one local "badass" (was likely "under influence" too) tried to start a fight. Luckily he picked the biggest (6'5“ or so) of our group, and he was also a boxer (and strong as hell, it was in their genes as was the gym). This wannabe bruce lee tried to land a flying spin kick on our friends head. Got blocked easily (moron was about 12" shorter so there wasn't much power innthat kick either) and fell on his face as the spin was cut. So he thought it was a good idea to try again. The result was exactly the same 😂. Our friend being a boxer didn't get too intimidated, partly because he knew he would likely cause big damage hitting even once. At this point the last working cell in the attacker's brain woke up and he stopped and the situation was over. But it was a kind of eye opener for the rest of us too, that those kicks are nice for a show, but not a good idea on a street fight.

[@herfnagletupperwink3781]

Hard shoes slammed into aggressor shin has been a good introduction for me more than once. The mind is focused on the shin pain when it should be defending something else. Make it a surprise. Walk normal.

[@Purwapada]

. One (not really a myth) but: people holding weapons like keys or something between their finger, so when they hit something it gets pushed back into their knuckles and cuts them. - also big kicks above the waist is (I would say at least) a bad idea. And step-by-step self defence techniques (I want to know more about biting and what situations it 'works')

[@ninjadad5998]

I've seen all these fighting styles during my teen years (Way before the world of KZbin). The swinging and leaning back was a very common style with girls; as well as the putting your head down and swinging for the fences. Karate was very popular back then and it quickly and easily took care of these types of "fighters".

[@fightscience]

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

More instincts than tactics I think for the most part, but good points. Both closing the gap and maintaining distance have their pros and cons. One thing with distance is more time to react, and of course if possible you can stay out of reacch, but an advantage of going in close is you can't get hit as hard. I believe in training both distances for self defense. Eventhough it's good to be able to try and dictate the range, it's also good to be able to deal with the different ranges. One dangerous thing when going in close is (and that's dangerous otherwise as well) is if he pulls a knife, again pros and cons there, better chance of trapping and pinning the weapon (IF you see it), on the other hand at distance you can use low kicks and palmstrikes to mantain distance and depending on the environment and your positioning be able to run off.

[@ZenDragonYoutubeChannel]

But good stuff, just wanted to share some other thoughts as well, but what you showed were solid approaches to frequent street fight situations.

[@wilhelmhesse1348]

I really appreciate these videos alot of good advice here.. Would like to see some of when the fight goes to the ground or what to do when say you suspect they are trying to throw something in your face or actually throw something in your face..

[@arienlicinius]

I have trained in Karate for 30 years and I would never recommend using a flying kick of any sort in any real fight. A flying kick may look nice in kata, but it will get you killed in a real fight. You must always maintain contact with the ground. Contact with the ground, even with only 1 leg, is instrumental in maintaining spatial awareness in a fight.

The element of surprise, does give one a slight advantage, but one also has to be prepared and deliberately accept the fact that they are going to get to some degree; PAIN. If and when one has never head butted, punch someone in the face etc etc etc. It does fucking hurt.

[@defragsbin]

5:27 I always reckoned that stepping off-line while their back is turned would work quite well. They turn back to sock you, but you're a ~metre to the inside (e.g. they turn away intending to punch with the right hand, you step to _your_ right). There's no way they can land with one motion once you've done that, and if they try to they'll probably overbalance. It'd leave you in a great position to counter, too.

[@mutant0177]

It is also a bit "flashy" but there is a range (or two) were a kind of flying knee is an option even in a street fight. BUT I would highly recommend to practise the move AND know the right distance and have a feeling for the right moment. The good thing is that you put your whole body weight in but it is a calculatable risk because you can protect your head or even punch activly at the same time.

Great videos and content. I have a question regarding one of the last things you demonstrate in this video. When an aggressor turns away from you and you think he might he might be preparing to turn back swinging are there any techniques other than striking first? The possible options I was thinking are - close the distance, increase the distance, or move laterally. Not having any training I’m not sure what the pros and cons are of these or if there are any other options. I’ve heard too many stories of someone striking first against an aggressor and then facing legal consequences. Thanks for producing such great content and be sure to give your partner hazard pay!

[@adamfreeman2348]

Legal consequences are better than medical consequences. In a real situation take your pick. If you attack first to protect yourself from a real threat and run away pronto, there may be no legal consequences. But if you hang around for the police you are an idiot.

Seems like we're all having the tendency of being aware of primarily the "High Line" of attack or defense but let's say we've got our proper distance & posture, how do we deal with "Low Line" awareness & defense.

[@David-su4is]

If seen loads of times in pubs, were someone pushed a guy back, and then the pushee, steps forward, hands down, into a haymaker.

[@sharkzomb1798]

Actually i did a flying kick before in self defense. I don’t recommend it in the middle of the fight but once a guy startet to push me and each push got more violent. So i jumped in the air and kicked him in the chest. He got pushed back pretty far and had to catch his breath. I used that and walked away. But dont do this mid fight.

Video, how to save someone in oppression!!! Let say 3 or more vs 1 . I wanna join and level thing up... ?? So it last longer 😛

[@binaryglitch64]

That's generally considered high level stuff taught to higher belt colors ie purple, brown, black, depending on discipline ... or in gi-less gyms/arts equivalent ranks... but that's rubbish in all honesty, granted you won't likely be heroically effective in such a situation, until you reach higher training and fight IQ, but it can and does come up for people of all fight training levels from none to multiple high level black belts... so if it can happen to anyone in any range of training than white belts and even casual video studiers should have access to some multi-opponent techniques, and methods both solo and with allies.

the infamous head kick (unless you are Bill Wallace or Joe Lewis)

[@oldhillbillybuckkowalski]

I've had a few guys that watched too many Bruce Lee movies that attempted to kick high, like chest or head high with snap kicks, side kicks, and on guy tried a round house kick to the head ( he landed flat on his back striking his head on the asphalt hard enough to knock himself out way past a 10 count and slit the back of his head wide open, I never even had to touch him). At 6'2" tall and 225 lbs ( last time I was in a fight, now I'm 210) I'm not an ideal candidate for a boot to the head while I'm still on my feet. But like most guys my size, especially with my military experience, my knees are probably my biggest vulnerability, and anybody my size and over 30 is likely to be in the same boat, especially with a lot of sports or military service in their background ( if you happen to actually know your adversary) so foot sweeps, snap kicks or stomp to the side or front of the knee might have been very effective against me assuming they had the skills to execute properly. Nowadays I'm no longer in the motorcycle club life, or a bouncer in a "Gentleman's Club" and I spend 90% of my time at my rural home so my defensive strategy has a lot more reliance on being armed. At 51 years old, 51 hard years, I'm going to avoid any sort of physical fighting if at all possible.

Your buddy always look terrified... I'm thinking you hurt him a few too many times. Lol

[@robertvondarth1730]

If you have an opening for a groin kick, take it, but it's not a magic off switch. Don't eye jab someone that is about to choke you out. (You must learn submission escapes)

[@G36-999]

agree 100% eye gouges and things are great tools for distraction/creating space to then start working the actual submission escape/defense.

Get in close, find a vulnerable body part and injure it. Repeat until threat neutralised.

Thank you Sifu

Center of balance

[@paulpasternak2026]

I would like to see something about that

[@syteanric1868]

Kicking high.. If somebody grabs your leg you're likely going down. Open yourself up to ankle break, shin break, knee dislocation.... or if they really nasty all 3. Kick lower than waist

[@thrownswordpommel7393]

You sir, are like a second, slimmer master Wong. Except your techniques aren't bs and your English is actually understandable.
