Well you know I agree with the first part. But not the second part. The streets are not a place to play. Both of the pro fighters that I have known have told me that they would never fight on the street, unless they got attacked. I TRY to follow this example myself.

I couldnt agree more. In my last 7 years of boxing I havent fought on the street so I cant exactly say,but there have been many other fighters ive trained with who tell me on the streets boxing really doesnt do $h!t,especially when people start pulling knives and other various weapons.

Seriously the streets are pretty damn rough,especially the way people fight today. My coaches are from the oldschool (in their 60s-70s) and theyve always said that back in the day when you had a fight you went toe to toe like men. You went at it and as soon as one man went down,thats it the fight was over. Now when one guy goes down he gets his head stomped on repeatedly until his basically dead. Its disgusting.

I've been in fights, yeah. A long time ago. Truth is there are many situations scarier than fights. If you're in a real fight, there's adrenaline and other things going on to alter your state of mind. Being scared of someone is worse than fighting them. Asking a girl out is harder than being in a fight. A job interview is harder than a fight. Physical pain is easier to deal with than emotional pain--for me anyway.

I agree with you, I was bullied both physically and emotionallly at high school, I have found that the emotional abuse to be far more hurtful than the few fights I got into. The teasing broke my self esteem, and contributed more to my anxiety than any fight I even had.

not as an adult,I have backed down from people I am sure I would beat,because of the shame and attention,then he kept running his mouth alone,guy thought he was the ****,but only was a weak little **** gossiper,maybe its not his fault because indeed a lot of people hung on his nuts,not trying to start something here,but yes if you fought him it meant you also had a problem with other people and girls,they only like jackasses :D,so a lot of people backed down and he thought he was the ****.

But back on topic,I dont fight right away it would take a lot for me to,like two clean punches to my face,then I would do it,if I am still awake haha

Yeah I have when pushed. I come from a tough family though, you had to get used to it. Taking up boxing really helped to temper my aggression.

Yes, with my younger cousin. He always got really dangerous when angry. He used to have big fights with both of his sisters too, and it was a disaster that he nearly smashed down the house :).

There were a few instances at school where girls would piss me off beyond my limits and we would get into heated arguments, but I never worked up enough nerve to actually fight them.

The only time I ever got to hit someone was when my a****** ex not only had the nerve to drop by my old house uninvited, but asked for my forgiveness after he cheated on me and then humiliated me in front of his friends by saying that he did it because "being with me was like being with a block of wood." As soon as he leaned in to kiss me I smacked him right across the face. He hasn't bothered me since :)

I also kicked a boy in the balls when I was little, but thats a whooole different story ::p:

I threw a chair at a guy in my primary school in rage and I got the whole class cheering me, but I didn't follow through.
 
i've been in a few fights, all of which I was defending myself imo. The one fight I was standing in the lunch line and a person butted in front of me. I was pretty much apart of the sub class of the student body so I was walked over a lot. So that day i decided to just to stand up for myself.

I told him to get behind me and he refused. So i pushed him and he pushed me back so I fought him. He just curled up in a corner as i wailed on him. I stopped myself because once I realized he was curled up there was no point in continuing. I was arrested and put in court for standing up for myself. No one made fun of me after that though.

I have many physical altercations with my older brother. He used to win all the time when we were little but recently i kicked his ass. I don't regret it. He hurts me and my family all the time. He never has my back, he takes advantage of me and my mother and wishes my girlfriend would die.

The other fight ( i've had more i just can't remember) Is pretty much identical to the first one i wrote about. this one was a guy was slapping my girlfriends ass with a twizzler. I called him a purple faggot because he was wearing a purple wind breaker and walked away. Then when the period switched he came after me from behind. I dodged his sucker punch and pounded him into the wall. He curled up just like the first guy, so I stopped fighting and again I was the one who got in trouble. It really saddens me that people who stand up for themselves are the ones who get in trouble. It really does sadden me. There is no justice.
 
My sister and I have gotten into many, many physical fights. I'm the stronger of the two, but she's scrappy. Once, when I made her angry, she put on a baseball helmet, grabbed two pool cues and came at me, screaming like Xena.

The only other person I've ever had an altercation with was this jerk of a boy. I was maybe 8 or 9 and he was a year younger and a foot taller. I punched him in the face. It's one of the jewels in my crown of shame/awesomeness. ;)

several fights for me. I never initiated them. I'm not proud of participating either. But I do take comfort in knowing I'm good at defending myself.
