If thats all he does with no sparring the first time hes in a real fight dudes in trouble, i trained wingchun for about 3 years and added some of the strikes into my boxing i feel its effective short strikes can be devastating.

Grappling, allows you to decide if you want to be on the ground in a real fight, its much more an asset than a liability.
there both hitting people in the throat its a trick question.
Exactly theres so much to jiujitsu on the feet it was made for multiple attackers to mane kill or cripple an opponent and move on to the next.Quote:

I often ask my students which hurts worse, a punch or a slap, everyone of them will tell you that my slaps hurt way worse, because of the heel palm slap striking that I utilize. and I promise you that you will rarely hear of someone breaking their heel palm bone, whereas, boxer breaks happen frequently, just look at ultimate fighter this season there has been two fighters who have broken their hands punching.Quote:

Well yea obviously it helps, but it's definitely not enough to win you a street fight against multiple attackers, unless you're really truly elite, but thats just my opinion, maybe my jits just isnt at the skill level yet of being able to feel confident in a street fight but i make sure im constantly improving!Quote:

Jiu jitsu was initially created for the battle field one must be able to adapt to any situation. Royce Gracie showed the superiority of ground fighting in the early ufc's but a cage is still a controlled environment in the street anything can happen might as well prepare for the worst.Quote:

If you dont train for multiple attackers no matter how great you are in bjj you might just get fucked up in a real fight dont get me wrong it may save your life. I may not be able to tap any high level guys in a bjj competition but i know i can do some serious damage and survive in a street fight. Last couple years i been really putting the effort to learn ground fighting so my jiujitsu can be more complete cause you never know so might as well be prepared.Quote:

The single best asset you can have against multiple attackers is to not get engaged with one too long, and to stay standing. Grappling is what keeps us standing, not kickboxing/kenop/etc. Keeping the engagements short comes to your preferred method, whether its a hip toss/right cross/knee to the face. That sort of situation comes down to the individual, and it needs to be a lion vs Hyenas thing. If its lion vs Lions, well it will end bad for the solo person.Quote:
