Your KO didn't work? Use this method - it will now!

I love the “what did you say?” And you’re right, they will start to say it again and concentration on what they are saying with great emotion by now grabs most of his attention, while the incoming rakes them unaware, especially if it is from low to up; they don’t specifically see it until it’s too late.

Thank you - that has worked so many times for our guys

Great style and flow of speech, Definitely a master who knows how to teach. Packs a punch and hits the spot. With a combination of the why, how and what? Keeping it simple but clever as well. Practice makes perfect inside the bell. In my humble opinion a very insightful and inspiring show. The true art of wisdom is to act out what you know. Thank you Russell for the hard work you put in. As far as I am concerned the content is a win, win, win. Without a doubt, A real knockout.

Wow - Thank you. I read that in a rush and now I am stating to blush - will get my coat

[@John-zz5gt]

Thanks Coach

[@RussellStutely]

Most welcome - thank you

If you hit someone when they're repeating a phrase and they haven't yet attacked you, that makes you the attacker. That's assault surely?

[@RussellStutely]

No... you DO NOT have to wait to be attacked. The law on self defense is different everywhere. Look up the law on pre-emptive striking, where you are.... as long as you are within the limits of that law - then you are ok.

Ah righty, did not know that, thank you!​@@RussellStutely

Not too familiar with violent encounters are you, Andrew?

[@andrewredfern8304]

@@streuselhead4058 Generally no. I don't go looking for them and when they happen I've been able to defend myself well enough. Didn't think it was a badge of honour to think otherwise.

If you have adequate reason, (reasonable cause) in legal parlance, to fear immanent attack, U are not obliged to put yrslf at risk by waiting for an attack.That said, how this deceptive strategy would go down if things end up in court, is probably a dice roll. That said, would be attackers will themselves often use deceptive dialogue/distraction to keep their victim from reacting quickly enough.
