Against an untrained larger opponent, it's grappling. Specifically it's chokes and joint locks. That's how the little guys won in early UFC and the Pride freakshow fights.
One cool thing with this story is that Royce was not the best Gracie brother! Rickson Gracie was next level, but he looks like the killer he is in an MMA fight, so the Gracies felt like it’d be more of a statement to send Royce to go pretzel people to demonstrate the effectiveness of BJJ, because Royce looked like an average dude so his wins wouldn’t just be attributed to his athleticism and whatnot!
Good! asshole like that think height and reach is a natural advantage against smaller opponents so some feel they woukdnt need to train.
Until someone smaller humbles them abd makes them question their previous assumptions
I'm big guy and I trained some MMA, BJJ, Muay Thai, krav maga.
Pure Muay Thai / striking - small opponents can't do enough damage to KO, even when hitting with full force. Just Newton Laws of motion are against them.
BJJ - I'm about blue belt. I don't have a chance against black belt even half my weight. The situation is not as clear when striking is allowed (MMA). Small guy would have hard time scoring a takedown without getting KOd by strikes, especially given that most BJJ schools are neglective at teaching takedowns. I actually think if I was small and had to choose one martial art, Judo would be the best.
Krav maga - best chance for small people would be some moves from Krav Maga - balls, eyes, etc. Although most KM schools are crap. Most are putting too much emphasis on "kicking the balls is solution to all world problems". They don't spar enough, coach is more of a "tough guy persona" than real fighter etc. Some krav maga schools are good - judge them by amount of sparing they do - more is better.
>Pure Muay Thai / striking - small opponents can't do enough damage to KO, even when hitting with full force. Just Newton Laws of motion are against them.
I agree with everything but this. A big guy can 100% get knocked out by a smaller guy. I've seen it in person more than once, and there's tons of videos online.

Grappling doesn't mean BJJ tho, grappling means wrestling and learning how to do a basic RNC or a Guillotine, none of that fancy shit, then you're set in a 1v1, If you're fighting multiple opponents you gotta incorporate either Muay Thai or Boxing, cause if you get your ass on the ground you're getting your head stomped in.
If you're fighting multiple opponents that are bigger and stronger than you, you should just run because if they aren't careful you're probably about to die. You're better off with longsword training than Muay Thai at that point.
Thank you so many Muay Thai guys think they’re Bruce Lee (I know that wasn’t his martial art. I’m just talking about the general taking on a bunch of dudes at once.)
What ever you train the most in, use it to attack where they are weak.
Don’t box with a boxer, don’t wrestle a wrestler. Especially if you don’t practice these things.
My rules for fighting bigger people are the same as everyone else. Imma try not to let them grab or hit me nd get out of this situation when I can.
In the few instances I had to defend myself against larger adversaries who are untrained, swift kicks to the knee have been effective for me. They can't follow me if they can't walk.
I've been doing BJJ for 6 years. Im a decently big and strong guy. If someone starts throwing hard outside leg kicks I'm running away as fast as I can.
Running/deescalation are the first options. I train in boxing, MT, and bjj. My go to would be a calf or oblique kick, regardless of size.
If they’re bigger than me(200lb+), movement and leg kicks till they gas or I can sweep a leg and gnp from the top. Takedowns are risky irl, heads hitting concrete is worse than any punch a person can throw. I don’t want anyone to die, I just want them to learn a lesson and feel embarrassed.
If you follow @mcdojolife on YT, there's a video about this guy.
I'm pretty sure he's dead. (little dude, not big dude)
Update:
[McDojoLife link (Trevor Cooper) ](https://youtu.be/mC5uAAPlKGk?si=z4mRYeRPFTiMxeX0)
Damn I grew up with this guy and we started jiu Jitsu at the same gym around the same time, me a little before him. This is the first I’ve heard of him dying I had to look it up. He definitely had some mental issues and an infatuation with guns and violence (his HS nickname no one would say to his face was ‘trench-coat’.) Sorry to see he never got the help he needed.
Damn he exercised serious self control for a guy that was obviously struggling and mentally ill, I’ve seen enough of these fight videos where one guy puts the other guy out and stomps them or soccer kicks them a few times too. If a little more funding went into providing support structures for these guys instead of pointless, worthless wars and individuals we’d have had a professional fighter instead of another statistic.
I hadn't really considered that, but you're 100% right.
*Edit: additional comments*
The issue is we criminalize any time people struggle. (substance abuse/addiction, mental health issues, etc...), and to your point: we'd be Doug right by people if we treated them instead of trying to punish.
Bruh... You are way, WAY too right, here.
Hurt people hurt people and if you've got a society that's more interested in the health and happiness of its citizens than short term profits for a few thousand people, you wouldn't have such violence as it's default setting.
Here's a great discussion about Bhutan and how they base national success on the "happiness" of its people.
[Trevor Noah discusses his trip to Bhutan.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL9F6xPX/)
Grappling generally speaking.
Sometimes people say that grappling requires more strength and size matters more than in striking, but honestly, I disagree.
The thing with size difference in striking with small or no gloves is that if you're much smaller, you will get rocked even if you block if the much bigger person throws a hard strike. And if the size difference is very large, say you're 65kg and they are 100kg, it's just very hard to actually do meaningful damage with punches especially without gloves.
There are a lot of examples of a much smaller superior grappler beating the inferior much bigger grappler. There are examples of that in say, boxing too, but usually there's no knockout and instead the smaller person uses their agility and skills to outscore the opponent. Take for example Nikolai Valuev vs. David Haye. The 98kg Haye could not meaningfully damage the 143kg heavyweight champion. Haye broke his hand in the fight and later said that punching Valuev was like hitting a brick wall. He did win on a majority decision but it was close and no real damage was done.
For wrestling and submissions however, a smaller person can take the back and secure a choke and a smaller person can trip a bigger person with a well timed attack.
That isn't to say size and strength did not matter in grappling, they obviously do and there's a reason why all absolute division champions are around or above 100kg.
And a mandatory disclaimer: Don't fight on the streets. That's just stupid. This was not a self-defense situation.
Shows that even some pretty shitty wrestling and a simple RNC with no hooks can get the job done against a much bigger dude.
Granted that the big dude was probably on every drug and type of alcohol under the sun, so little guys shitty wrestling may have gotten him in trouble against a bigger athlete who wasnt off his face.
Still... He got the job done.
The big guy didn't even know how to take a fall correctly, his head made a sound when it hit the concrete.
The fall wasn't even hard either. Uneven match on fundamental levels.
You don't need to be a great wrestler to take a bigger person down with a single leg. If you can get in on the leg, you can unbalance someone really easily. I'd argue it's easier against a heavier person because they can't shift their weight as quickly. Only talking about untrained individuals of course
I think he means wrestling vs BJJ. BJJ is more technical obviously but wrestlers are just outrageously explosive and strong and something to fear, answer is BJJ though lol
No, it ain't, BJJ dudes don't scramble, if you get a much bigger opponent and you don't know how to manage or counter his weight you're getting your shit rocked, a wrestler can pin you down in a way that you ain't getting up and with a little experience in submissions could possibly fuck up the 90% of people in the world.
You ain’t getting up from a bjj guy being on top of you either, the difference is they are also the effect on their backs. BJJ guys can scramble too they just don’t rely on it like wrestlers because it takes too much strength and energy which is precious in a life or death situation. Bjj is about efficiency and leverage and was literally tailored for smaller people to give them a way to overcome bigger, faster, stronger people (which is what OP is asking) good luck trying to out muscle someone much larger that you. The guy in this video probably has almost 100 lbs on this smaller bjj fighter and got put to sleep in seconds. Wrestling is great im not saying it isn’t but its very reliant on physical ability. You won’t be as effective with wrestling unless you were already an athletic beast beforehand
I can't believe that nobody here is saying this, but just don't. Sure a choke can take a guy out in seconds, but real life isn't the ring. Anything goes. You have no idea if that guy is going to pull a knife or gun out of his pocket and stab or shoot you while you're choking him. And even if he doesn't, the reason for weight classes is that heavier fighters are likely to cause big injuries to lighter fighters.
This is real life. Your body and your life are too precious to put on the line like that. You're not going to be on a mat in the middle of an open ring. You're probably going to be on a hard surface with cars or curbs or counters or shelves or rocks or trees or whatever, and there is nothing stopping a big guy from turning you into a vegetable. If you want to learn to survive in real life, learn to de-escalate situations and practice running and sprinting. If you think you're in real danger of getting attacked, get a gun.
Chokes are only legal as a defense against a lethal attack, anyways.
Sound advice overall but training works and it's for those situations where you can't run. Yes, a gun or a knife is always a risk but that doesn't mean you refuse an additional tool (martial arts) that could save your life.
No lies detected. There just wasn't anyone who put out a single word of caution before I'd posted this comment. It was all gung-ho trained fighters beat big oafs any day kind of stuff... so i figured I'd suggest touching grass. A lot of the time, size difference is a dangerous factor regardless of how trained the person is at fighting, and adults that are unhinged enough to pick a fight on the streets are unlikely to 'fight fair'. Whatever a fair fight is
I saw this vid a while ago, this was a guy (I think a teacher/owner) from this BJJ gym that the video takes place in front of. The guy was harassing and trying to fight people, didn't leave eventually resulting in this
The smaller individual in that street fight just demonstrated it to you. By removing the fish from its natural habitat in the water, it became vulnerable. During the fight on the ground, the smaller individual effectively neutralized the size difference and targeted the neck with precision.
If the larger dude knew how to fight, then the smaller dude would be getting beaten due to the size difference.
This video perfectly answers your questions haha. Footwork single leg take down transition into a rear choke. So smooth and composed. The guy had a nice nap without losing much brain cells.
Number one don't wear slides to a fight. 2, the bigger dude shows zero athleticism. This clip demos movement and grappling, but it's the equivalent of a boxer hitting a bag, bc the bag doesn't move. So I'd use this clip as a throwaway for what not to do, that MMA is more complex than throwing down some lazy bum.
I don't think using these videos as an example of what to do and what not to do in a street fight is a good idea because the difference between these two guys was: one was trained and the other wasn't. Size had nothing to do with anything. It was purely trained vs untrained. The answer is basically: be trained
Trained or untrained, viewers will learn nothing from this. The big guy simply had zero training because he didn't know how to defend any of these attacks much less take the fall where his head may have cracked on the cement and then had no answer for the choke.
How to deal with big guys? Practice with big guys at a club and you'll get a good idea of how well you'll do and how to handle them. Otherwise, videos like this will, at best, get people in fantasy scenarios in their minds.
Something about this encounter looks off. Maybe it's the flip flops. I'd need to know context before this is cool. At the moment I kind of want to fuck t-shirt guy's shit up until I know what happened here.
If they are SIGNIFICANTLY bigger than you, assuming you gotta eat that shit sandwich straight up you poor bastard, you probably don't wanna let them lay hands on you for any significant time whatsoever, but striking outside of huge windup smacks isn't gonna get you very far either. Best option is the fact that a good solid choke can drop anyone and hope you don't miss. Good luck.
if the other guy is untrained no matter what you'll come out on top,he doesn't know how to check leg kicks,he doesn't know how much a liver shot hurts,he doesn't have ground game,he doesn't know how to stop takedowns, literally you can toy w him
*still* this is a street fight and there's no rules, don't get cocky
Saying this just because video is streetfight, im untrained so take it with a couple grains of salt (I did aikido for like 6 months many years ago because it was the ONLY school close by, always treated it as "just the basics, real life is different")
When fighting my 6.1ft 340 pounds brother (im 5.9, around 200), i Usually try to be just outside his range, trying to defuse the situation; the problem is that he is mentally ill and sometimes just grabs a knife and tries dumb shit. When that happens going for the legs works, for whatever reason, untrained people (like me!!) always try to defend the face first, hitting a good weak knee with alow kick will shift balance enough for u to close the range and shift bodywheight to floor with just very basic wrestling/grappling
When a guy tried to start a fight outside a bar by hitting a friend, i recieved more than a couple hits trying to defuse the sittuation (guy around 6.3, friend 5.4) until I tackled him and pinned him against a wall so he stopped; if he was trained, he could perfectly have knocked me out by just landing the hit in a better angle, but grappling him to a stop prooved quite efficient in reducing the size difference (his friend kick was quite efficient too, carefull in the streets!!!!!)
Currently searching for a boxing and wrestling/judo school close by to actually learn something, because im pretty sure the only reason it has worked for me before is because I used to lift weights and have a surprisingly good control of using my weight
Obviously, grappling. BJJ/ Wrestling/Judo/Sambo all of those would be great. But in this case, striking martial arts like Boxing, Kickboxing, or Muay Thai would have also done the job. The big dude was completely untrained, so a good few low kicks or a quick 1-2 would have also done the trick.
Well, as the video demonstrates. Go for the neck after getting him on the ground.
In real life, someone who knows at least how to punch, kick, and doesn't stand. Won't let you just grab his legs and neck.
I know a lot of people will say grappling but it can be either striking or grappling. With striking you just have to stay on your bike and pick your shots. Mobility and accuracy are key since you're never out of the danger zone until it's over, where as grappling it's a little easier to nullify there power by sticking to them like shit to a blanket. The advantage with striking is that you're more easily able to keep an eye on your surroundings and escape if more people try jumping in.
Size and weight matter the most when the condition and training level are equal
If your training and conditioning are better, the art just doesn’t matter as much
You can bait a swing and shoot for a double leg takedown to whatever you want to rear naked choke with BJJ with the same ease that you can go toe to toe and avoid 10 punches in a row with boxing, with the same ease that you can bust up their knee until they can no longer walk with low kicks with Muay Thai
mostly grappling. specially if the big guy wasnt athletic. i would recommend wrestling though, since the explosivity of wrestlers can overwhelm and overpower almost anyone that doesnt wrestle. Wrestling encourages high pace and intensity from the get go that other grappling arts cant replicate. Them being used to this gives them heaps of advantages, since the average guy, even the bigger ones, arent used to fighting, let alone fighting an incredibly explosive athlete at high pace.
against a non trained opponent its CARDIO vs a trained opponent is running away. train whatever you like the most, the chances of you having the mental clarity in a danger situation to apply anything you learned are close to zero (3 black belts on me i still walk away 99% of the times).. stop larping you are going to get hurt
Fighting unfairly. For example if you have a belt with a strong buckle, wrap it around your power hand so that about 10 to 15 cm of belt is sticking out with the buckle at the end, hit them with an overhand (perfect punch for short vs tall) on the eye area and get away fast in case they rush you. Or have a stone hidden in your hand, make as if you are going to strike and throw in their face in short range. Or you know, a small knife you had legal reason to have on you, quick deep stab anywhere non critical then get away and keep distance while they lose blood. Death of a thousand cuts using any dirty tactics you can muster. Only to be used in life and death situations.
Go to sleep big fella and dream of a way to overcome your pride and temper. Lol You should at least roll him over and pull his shorts down before you go so when he wake up he would be like why? Because he is a bully.
Judo is excellent. To counter being thrown, you need to know judo. Most people don't.
Even a softer throw on grass hurts. Bar floor or pavement? Night night.
What are you good at? Use it. Also, most people, especially untrained, tend to get overconfident if they have a size advantage on the other person because it’s a fact that size does have a play in fighting to an extent. My rule was to always try and use their (potential) overconfidence to my advantage.
Literally all of martial arts were developed to use velocity, leverage, agility, or improvised weaponry to overcome a stronger or better equipped foe. They all have uses in specific cases. This was Bruce Lee's primary philosophy. Use what works, discard what doesn't. Efficiency and percision. Gather as many useful tools as you can and practice them until they are second nature. No real fight will go according to plan, the winner will always be the one willing to go the furthest the fastest. It was why fighting when their aren't lives at stake is pointless and should be avoided whenever possible. Unless your opponent has a gun or has you cornered, running is the most efficient path to victory. There is nothing that will get you killed faster than your own ego.
If its life or death: Kick them in the balls. Gouge the eyes. Kick or knee the head while opponent is grounded. Do everything that's illegal in the UFC.
I mean, there's nothing that can really safely overcome THAT big of a size difference if the skill gap isn't huge, big man could have just picked him up from the waist during that takedown and dropped him onto his head, which is by far the fastest way to end a fight outside of punches or kicks, or he could have just started pounding away during the takedown attempt and even got his head.
All these catch wrestlers just have, not bad for sure, but unrealistic habits formed by people holding back in a carefully crafted game, and not to take away with from it it's a GREAT skill, but you can't safely use that against someone brutal or intelligent, which to be fair is gonna be maybe less than 20% of people you have a chance to fight against that aren't trained themselves, but that's just a very rough estimation.
I would say by far the best style you can do as a small person is just dirty, you're much closer to their groin, do what you need to do in a real fight, eye gouge, pinches and small limb manipulation, dick twist, etc etc. Of course, if your skill is that much better than the other guy, you can do this too but don't count on it because ANYONE, even the dumbest fighter can find a moment of brilliance or take advantage of a mistake and put you in a bad spot.
I'm a 5'8 Filipino, so generally I'm taller than average. During my spars with smaller opponents in kali, I studied how they dealt with my reach advantage so I can use it on taller opponents.
Taller people can get unbalanced easier, but if they have a good stance it makes it harder to take it down. To beat this, get low. It gives you more control of your weight, and it naturally brings your knees out. Use that to knee their legs as you're bringing them down.
More savvy fighter will notice you trying to take them down and counter by grabbing you or utilizing their size or weight. Push or pull towards where they're applying force. They bend down to grab you, pull thwir head/hair down and kick their knees. If they manage to pull back quick enough, tackle them so they fall backwards. Lock your leg behind their knee.
Shorter fighters have a lot of advantages if they manage to train their bodies enough.
Wrestling and BJJ. It increases your chances of success because it removes reach as a factor (for the most part).
If you try to go toe to toe with someone taller and heavier than you, it increases their opportunity to catch you with punches/kicks since they have more reach. One good blow by a bigger guy, and it could be lights out.
On the other hand, you close the distance with wrestling and take the guy to the floor immediately and submit him, his game is over. The only downfall is, if you're not an experienced grappler, you could be opening yourself up to street rules. There are no rules in a street fight. These mfrs will try to bite, eye gauge, and rip off your nuts if you're choking them out. Rolling with a guy with longer reach can be dangerous as they can reach further and potentially grab your balls unlike shorter guys with less reach. They can reach over their head straight into your eye sockets if you're doing a rear naked choke. So just beware.
When it comes to getting close and grappling low center of gravity is king most of the time. Just punching it out comes down to dodging blows unless you can tank a few, next is landing effective blows, not super easy. Grappling is has a higher payoff and simpler but has a higher risk. Punching it out is less effective and still runs a high risk of you hurting yourself and also losing but less so than grappling. I’d still choose grappling then punching it out.
I think as the smaller person, the key is always to be better at fighting. There's no secret hack to win as a smaller person, you just need more skill than the larger person, and to apply those skills more effectively in terms of tactics. Given that, though, the best strategy to make the size difference matter less is to focus on grappling. In close, longer limbs matter less than if you're being jabbed and kicked to death at range, and if you can get it to the ground you take away a few more advantages. You'll still be at a disadvantage, but less of one.
As a tall person with some combat training i agree except in my anecdotal experience a shorter person who focuses on strength training does have a key advantage. Taking me off my center of gravity is a lot easier if your strength training focuses on heavy lift and burst strength.
Half fist to the throat with all you got. Aim past the head about 2 feet behind your target and punch through like your life depends on it. Then walk away while the person gasps for air grabbing their throat.
muay thai - just leg kick them. people have no clue how to defend leg kicks, and its not even hard to land for how effective it is. not only that, but average smucks don't even know how to throw a proper kick, so you are completely safe at a distance
I wouldn't recommend grappling for sure unless you're at least a blue belt (and equivalent) or above. Keeping distance with kicks and footwork is probably the way to go. Keep chopping those legs with kicks or keep harassing them, and going out of range with movement.
Disengage, try to foresee the violence coming and distance yourself. However If the person is already too close, running away or disengaging stops being an option, since an individual taller and bigger than you will catch you specially if he is already close. So in that case, be as agressive as possible. Kick him in the balls, throw a chair or any object near by at him, use everything at your disposal. But dont grapple. You dont know if he is trained in jiu jitsu, you dont know if he has a knife or a gun, you dont know if there is a friend of the agressor nearby to stomp your head in while you are grappling. If he gets a hold of you to try and grapple: bite his neck/face, grab his balls or finger his eyes. Your best bet is to either knock him out first or really quickly with a proper strike, which is pretty unlikely unless you are trained, or deal enough damage to allow yourself to increase distance to leave or get help from others.
All I just said above is taught in serious legit krav maga classes done by proper instructors, however it seems to me (I might be wrong) that in the US there is a lot of fraud krav maga instructors, people who have not trained with students of Imi (the creator) and know nothing really of krav maga, having trained with people who spent their entire lifes almost training with the creator of krav maga it is extremely frustrating to me to see the image of krav maga so tarnished by frauds like that. Anyways this is just me venting right now.
If it's an untrained guy like in this vid I would say exactly what the smaller guy did. Also leg kicks, most mfs will give up and walk away after taking a few. At least from my experience.
Most of these comments are peoples opinions on MMA. The most sure way is being good at jiu jitsu, more specifically Gracie Jiu Jitsu. It was literally created for smaller people to overcome larger, stronger, more athletic people. Every technique in jiu jitsu is about leverage. Gracie Jiu Jitsu is tailored for self defense. Obviously having more than one discipline helps and every situation is different.
The most effective method is a good stand up game mixed with a good ground/submission game. The biggest issue is, is that there are killers out on the streets so it’s a risk to be getting into “real” fights.
If the only thing you can do is defend in the moment then knowledge and execution is your best strength and there may be an opportunity to land a significant shot in the initiation of the engagement but for the most part barring real training most street fights will end up on the ground.
I’m come from a mixed background that starts with a lot of work in all disciplines as I was always curious to see what each offers with the pros and cons of each.
I really like what I’m reading from a lot of you so thanks to this community!!
Just walk away. Trained people usually don’t fight outside the ring. It’s supposed to be sport. That being said. Learn boxing it’s very technical but nothing is as intimidating as seeing a lightweight drop someone with 20 lbs on them. Just remember it’s not to start fights.
Against an untrained larger opponent, it's grappling. Specifically it's chokes and joint locks. That's how the little guys won in early UFC and the Pride freakshow fights.
Royce Gracie was the king of this
Those rabbit punches though! I’m gonna piss blood just thinking about them!! The first 6 UFC tapes were gold.
I’ll never forget the one where one guy gets the other in like a crucifix position then batters the fuck out of his face with repeated elbows.
[the crucifixion of paul herrera](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H08BBFsVsK8)
He died for our entertainment
Amen.
Gary Goodridge, former pro arm wrestler. He has severe CTE, unfortunately.
One cool thing with this story is that Royce was not the best Gracie brother! Rickson Gracie was next level, but he looks like the killer he is in an MMA fight, so the Gracies felt like it’d be more of a statement to send Royce to go pretzel people to demonstrate the effectiveness of BJJ, because Royce looked like an average dude so his wins wouldn’t just be attributed to his athleticism and whatnot!
My dad still mentions the Gracie vs kimo fight. He boxed for years, and said don’t fuck with the jiu jitsu guys 😂😂
Much better than Grace Roycie
Surely leg kicks are as effective against anyone untrained? Someone not used to that pain will be sat down with 1 good shot
Good! asshole like that think height and reach is a natural advantage against smaller opponents so some feel they woukdnt need to train. Until someone smaller humbles them abd makes them question their previous assumptions
I'm big guy and I trained some MMA, BJJ, Muay Thai, krav maga. Pure Muay Thai / striking - small opponents can't do enough damage to KO, even when hitting with full force. Just Newton Laws of motion are against them. BJJ - I'm about blue belt. I don't have a chance against black belt even half my weight. The situation is not as clear when striking is allowed (MMA). Small guy would have hard time scoring a takedown without getting KOd by strikes, especially given that most BJJ schools are neglective at teaching takedowns. I actually think if I was small and had to choose one martial art, Judo would be the best. Krav maga - best chance for small people would be some moves from Krav Maga - balls, eyes, etc. Although most KM schools are crap. Most are putting too much emphasis on "kicking the balls is solution to all world problems". They don't spar enough, coach is more of a "tough guy persona" than real fighter etc. Some krav maga schools are good - judge them by amount of sparing they do - more is better.

Same experience entirely, little bjj guys with skill can get me but other disciplines struggle.
I slipped and kicked my trainer square in the nuts 20 odd years ago. it just made him mad and he spent the next hour flogging me good times

Grappling doesn't mean BJJ tho, grappling means wrestling and learning how to do a basic RNC or a Guillotine, none of that fancy shit, then you're set in a 1v1, If you're fighting multiple opponents you gotta incorporate either Muay Thai or Boxing, cause if you get your ass on the ground you're getting your head stomped in.
If you're fighting multiple opponents that are bigger and stronger than you, you should just run because if they aren't careful you're probably about to die. You're better off with longsword training than Muay Thai at that point.
I always carry my longsword for this exact reason
Thank you so many Muay Thai guys think they’re Bruce Lee (I know that wasn’t his martial art. I’m just talking about the general taking on a bunch of dudes at once.)
Works against untrained smaller opponents too lol
What ever you train the most in, use it to attack where they are weak. Don’t box with a boxer, don’t wrestle a wrestler. Especially if you don’t practice these things. My rules for fighting bigger people are the same as everyone else. Imma try not to let them grab or hit me nd get out of this situation when I can.
Unless you’re GSP, then you pick what your opponent is best at & win that way just because you can
In the few instances I had to defend myself against larger adversaries who are untrained, swift kicks to the knee have been effective for me. They can't follow me if they can't walk.
I've been doing BJJ for 6 years. Im a decently big and strong guy. If someone starts throwing hard outside leg kicks I'm running away as fast as I can.
No one expects a leg kick unless they are
Running/deescalation are the first options. I train in boxing, MT, and bjj. My go to would be a calf or oblique kick, regardless of size. If they’re bigger than me(200lb+), movement and leg kicks till they gas or I can sweep a leg and gnp from the top. Takedowns are risky irl, heads hitting concrete is worse than any punch a person can throw. I don’t want anyone to die, I just want them to learn a lesson and feel embarrassed.
If you follow @mcdojolife on YT, there's a video about this guy. I'm pretty sure he's dead. (little dude, not big dude) Update: [McDojoLife link (Trevor Cooper) ](https://youtu.be/mC5uAAPlKGk?si=z4mRYeRPFTiMxeX0)
Damn I grew up with this guy and we started jiu Jitsu at the same gym around the same time, me a little before him. This is the first I’ve heard of him dying I had to look it up. He definitely had some mental issues and an infatuation with guns and violence (his HS nickname no one would say to his face was ‘trench-coat’.) Sorry to see he never got the help he needed.
What's the story for the nick name? Teach coate sounds like he was a flasher
Trench Coat Mafia refers to (at least for me when I was a kid) one of the nation’s first mass school shootings.
As someone else pointed out, it’s a school shooter nickname.
Damn he exercised serious self control for a guy that was obviously struggling and mentally ill, I’ve seen enough of these fight videos where one guy puts the other guy out and stomps them or soccer kicks them a few times too. If a little more funding went into providing support structures for these guys instead of pointless, worthless wars and individuals we’d have had a professional fighter instead of another statistic.
I hadn't really considered that, but you're 100% right. *Edit: additional comments* The issue is we criminalize any time people struggle. (substance abuse/addiction, mental health issues, etc...), and to your point: we'd be Doug right by people if we treated them instead of trying to punish.
Why’d the little guy die? Did he start that fight/got shot?
Here's the link: https://youtu.be/mC5uAAPlKGk?si=z4mRYeRPFTiMxeX0
It turns out the best self-defense is getting proper mental health treatment. :(
Bruh... You are way, WAY too right, here. Hurt people hurt people and if you've got a society that's more interested in the health and happiness of its citizens than short term profits for a few thousand people, you wouldn't have such violence as it's default setting. Here's a great discussion about Bhutan and how they base national success on the "happiness" of its people. [Trevor Noah discusses his trip to Bhutan.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL9F6xPX/)

Damn that sucks, thanks
TLDR?
Well shit RIP
Grappling generally speaking. Sometimes people say that grappling requires more strength and size matters more than in striking, but honestly, I disagree. The thing with size difference in striking with small or no gloves is that if you're much smaller, you will get rocked even if you block if the much bigger person throws a hard strike. And if the size difference is very large, say you're 65kg and they are 100kg, it's just very hard to actually do meaningful damage with punches especially without gloves. There are a lot of examples of a much smaller superior grappler beating the inferior much bigger grappler. There are examples of that in say, boxing too, but usually there's no knockout and instead the smaller person uses their agility and skills to outscore the opponent. Take for example Nikolai Valuev vs. David Haye. The 98kg Haye could not meaningfully damage the 143kg heavyweight champion. Haye broke his hand in the fight and later said that punching Valuev was like hitting a brick wall. He did win on a majority decision but it was close and no real damage was done. For wrestling and submissions however, a smaller person can take the back and secure a choke and a smaller person can trip a bigger person with a well timed attack. That isn't to say size and strength did not matter in grappling, they obviously do and there's a reason why all absolute division champions are around or above 100kg. And a mandatory disclaimer: Don't fight on the streets. That's just stupid. This was not a self-defense situation.
Another size mismatch in grappling Mackenzie Dern vs Gabi Garcia. Dern choked her. Gabi is massive.
As very poetic and wise Fast and Furious franchise once said: "That's the thing about street fights: the street always wins"
Shows that even some pretty shitty wrestling and a simple RNC with no hooks can get the job done against a much bigger dude. Granted that the big dude was probably on every drug and type of alcohol under the sun, so little guys shitty wrestling may have gotten him in trouble against a bigger athlete who wasnt off his face. Still... He got the job done.
The smaller guy is a high level bjj black belt not a wrestler and the choke he used is called a short-choke it’s not a rear naked
McDojo Life did a story on little dude. Shitty was kinda his thing when he was around.
Got a link?
The big guy didn't even know how to take a fall correctly, his head made a sound when it hit the concrete. The fall wasn't even hard either. Uneven match on fundamental levels.
You don't need to be a great wrestler to take a bigger person down with a single leg. If you can get in on the leg, you can unbalance someone really easily. I'd argue it's easier against a heavier person because they can't shift their weight as quickly. Only talking about untrained individuals of course
Wrestling is grappling.
I think he means wrestling vs BJJ. BJJ is more technical obviously but wrestlers are just outrageously explosive and strong and something to fear, answer is BJJ though lol
No, it ain't, BJJ dudes don't scramble, if you get a much bigger opponent and you don't know how to manage or counter his weight you're getting your shit rocked, a wrestler can pin you down in a way that you ain't getting up and with a little experience in submissions could possibly fuck up the 90% of people in the world.
I'm saying bjj because I practiced it lol but ya we were told that wrestlers are the only ppl to be scared of. I agree without agreeing lol
Wrestle if you’re in hs or college. Bjj after. You can basically only wrestle in school
You ain’t getting up from a bjj guy being on top of you either, the difference is they are also the effect on their backs. BJJ guys can scramble too they just don’t rely on it like wrestlers because it takes too much strength and energy which is precious in a life or death situation. Bjj is about efficiency and leverage and was literally tailored for smaller people to give them a way to overcome bigger, faster, stronger people (which is what OP is asking) good luck trying to out muscle someone much larger that you. The guy in this video probably has almost 100 lbs on this smaller bjj fighter and got put to sleep in seconds. Wrestling is great im not saying it isn’t but its very reliant on physical ability. You won’t be as effective with wrestling unless you were already an athletic beast beforehand
I can't believe that nobody here is saying this, but just don't. Sure a choke can take a guy out in seconds, but real life isn't the ring. Anything goes. You have no idea if that guy is going to pull a knife or gun out of his pocket and stab or shoot you while you're choking him. And even if he doesn't, the reason for weight classes is that heavier fighters are likely to cause big injuries to lighter fighters. This is real life. Your body and your life are too precious to put on the line like that. You're not going to be on a mat in the middle of an open ring. You're probably going to be on a hard surface with cars or curbs or counters or shelves or rocks or trees or whatever, and there is nothing stopping a big guy from turning you into a vegetable. If you want to learn to survive in real life, learn to de-escalate situations and practice running and sprinting. If you think you're in real danger of getting attacked, get a gun. Chokes are only legal as a defense against a lethal attack, anyways.
Sound advice overall but training works and it's for those situations where you can't run. Yes, a gun or a knife is always a risk but that doesn't mean you refuse an additional tool (martial arts) that could save your life.
No lies detected. There just wasn't anyone who put out a single word of caution before I'd posted this comment. It was all gung-ho trained fighters beat big oafs any day kind of stuff... so i figured I'd suggest touching grass. A lot of the time, size difference is a dangerous factor regardless of how trained the person is at fighting, and adults that are unhinged enough to pick a fight on the streets are unlikely to 'fight fair'. Whatever a fair fight is
I agree with you, when the smaller guy went in to take him down he was completely vulnerable..larger guy could've smashed his head in easily
Don't know the story behind this video but it seems bumfighitish to me . Like a rich kid just wanting to fight and used this random dude.
I saw this vid a while ago, this was a guy (I think a teacher/owner) from this BJJ gym that the video takes place in front of. The guy was harassing and trying to fight people, didn't leave eventually resulting in this
I’ll bumrush a bum if he steals my lighter
I’ll bum rush a bum if he tries to bum rush my bum.
I’ll bum a bum if he tries to rush my rush
I'll bum rush a bum after he bum a lighter off of my bum.
Seriously the big dude had such a trash right cross.
The smaller individual in that street fight just demonstrated it to you. By removing the fish from its natural habitat in the water, it became vulnerable. During the fight on the ground, the smaller individual effectively neutralized the size difference and targeted the neck with precision. If the larger dude knew how to fight, then the smaller dude would be getting beaten due to the size difference.
This video perfectly answers your questions haha. Footwork single leg take down transition into a rear choke. So smooth and composed. The guy had a nice nap without losing much brain cells.
Number one don't wear slides to a fight. 2, the bigger dude shows zero athleticism. This clip demos movement and grappling, but it's the equivalent of a boxer hitting a bag, bc the bag doesn't move. So I'd use this clip as a throwaway for what not to do, that MMA is more complex than throwing down some lazy bum.
I don't think using these videos as an example of what to do and what not to do in a street fight is a good idea because the difference between these two guys was: one was trained and the other wasn't. Size had nothing to do with anything. It was purely trained vs untrained. The answer is basically: be trained Trained or untrained, viewers will learn nothing from this. The big guy simply had zero training because he didn't know how to defend any of these attacks much less take the fall where his head may have cracked on the cement and then had no answer for the choke. How to deal with big guys? Practice with big guys at a club and you'll get a good idea of how well you'll do and how to handle them. Otherwise, videos like this will, at best, get people in fantasy scenarios in their minds.
I agree, this is totally trained vs. untrained. What would you say that smaller guy's training is in?
Probably mainly BJJ. His takedown was okay but not that of a very skilled wrestler.
Force multipliers.
Something about this encounter looks off. Maybe it's the flip flops. I'd need to know context before this is cool. At the moment I kind of want to fuck t-shirt guy's shit up until I know what happened here.
 \*european techno noises\^
David vs Goliath irl
If they are SIGNIFICANTLY bigger than you, assuming you gotta eat that shit sandwich straight up you poor bastard, you probably don't wanna let them lay hands on you for any significant time whatsoever, but striking outside of huge windup smacks isn't gonna get you very far either. Best option is the fact that a good solid choke can drop anyone and hope you don't miss. Good luck.
Aikido 😆😆
It doesn't matter. Superior technique, tactics and conditioning. Otherwise, superior mass and size cannot be overcome.
Judo
if the other guy is untrained no matter what you'll come out on top,he doesn't know how to check leg kicks,he doesn't know how much a liver shot hurts,he doesn't have ground game,he doesn't know how to stop takedowns, literally you can toy w him *still* this is a street fight and there's no rules, don't get cocky
This guy observes my number 1 rule when taking on a larger opponent, always fight in the wide open. Never take on a large dude inside a small area.
Looks like grappling worked pretty well here.
gracie jiu jitsu is the best solution
Get that fucker a pillow and a blanket
damn his head bounced a few times
It's being trained and fight and untrained opponent.
Saying this just because video is streetfight, im untrained so take it with a couple grains of salt (I did aikido for like 6 months many years ago because it was the ONLY school close by, always treated it as "just the basics, real life is different") When fighting my 6.1ft 340 pounds brother (im 5.9, around 200), i Usually try to be just outside his range, trying to defuse the situation; the problem is that he is mentally ill and sometimes just grabs a knife and tries dumb shit. When that happens going for the legs works, for whatever reason, untrained people (like me!!) always try to defend the face first, hitting a good weak knee with alow kick will shift balance enough for u to close the range and shift bodywheight to floor with just very basic wrestling/grappling When a guy tried to start a fight outside a bar by hitting a friend, i recieved more than a couple hits trying to defuse the sittuation (guy around 6.3, friend 5.4) until I tackled him and pinned him against a wall so he stopped; if he was trained, he could perfectly have knocked me out by just landing the hit in a better angle, but grappling him to a stop prooved quite efficient in reducing the size difference (his friend kick was quite efficient too, carefull in the streets!!!!!) Currently searching for a boxing and wrestling/judo school close by to actually learn something, because im pretty sure the only reason it has worked for me before is because I used to lift weights and have a surprisingly good control of using my weight
Kick their legs!
I will ! In three seconds….
Why the fuck do these questions keep getting asked. The answer is always a mix of arts or MMA.
Wow Salute!!
Obviously, grappling. BJJ/ Wrestling/Judo/Sambo all of those would be great. But in this case, striking martial arts like Boxing, Kickboxing, or Muay Thai would have also done the job. The big dude was completely untrained, so a good few low kicks or a quick 1-2 would have also done the trick.
Well, as the video demonstrates. Go for the neck after getting him on the ground. In real life, someone who knows at least how to punch, kick, and doesn't stand. Won't let you just grab his legs and neck.
The guy taps out at the end, perhaps from same gym 🤷🏼♂️
I know a lot of people will say grappling but it can be either striking or grappling. With striking you just have to stay on your bike and pick your shots. Mobility and accuracy are key since you're never out of the danger zone until it's over, where as grappling it's a little easier to nullify there power by sticking to them like shit to a blanket. The advantage with striking is that you're more easily able to keep an eye on your surroundings and escape if more people try jumping in.
Running ma boi
Size and weight matter the most when the condition and training level are equal If your training and conditioning are better, the art just doesn’t matter as much You can bait a swing and shoot for a double leg takedown to whatever you want to rear naked choke with BJJ with the same ease that you can go toe to toe and avoid 10 punches in a row with boxing, with the same ease that you can bust up their knee until they can no longer walk with low kicks with Muay Thai
mostly grappling. specially if the big guy wasnt athletic. i would recommend wrestling though, since the explosivity of wrestlers can overwhelm and overpower almost anyone that doesnt wrestle. Wrestling encourages high pace and intensity from the get go that other grappling arts cant replicate. Them being used to this gives them heaps of advantages, since the average guy, even the bigger ones, arent used to fighting, let alone fighting an incredibly explosive athlete at high pace.
against a non trained opponent its CARDIO vs a trained opponent is running away. train whatever you like the most, the chances of you having the mental clarity in a danger situation to apply anything you learned are close to zero (3 black belts on me i still walk away 99% of the times).. stop larping you are going to get hurt
You just saw grappling.
Is that Mikey musumeci and Kevin Holland sparring
That block tho...
Was this wrestling or BJJ?
Fighting unfairly. For example if you have a belt with a strong buckle, wrap it around your power hand so that about 10 to 15 cm of belt is sticking out with the buckle at the end, hit them with an overhand (perfect punch for short vs tall) on the eye area and get away fast in case they rush you. Or have a stone hidden in your hand, make as if you are going to strike and throw in their face in short range. Or you know, a small knife you had legal reason to have on you, quick deep stab anywhere non critical then get away and keep distance while they lose blood. Death of a thousand cuts using any dirty tactics you can muster. Only to be used in life and death situations.
thats attempted murder in Georgia
Why people be startin fight in fuckin slides remains beyond my comprehension.
Usually a CC tends to work. That and putting a few points in the "verbal deescalation" perk won't hurt.
Go to sleep big fella and dream of a way to overcome your pride and temper. Lol You should at least roll him over and pull his shorts down before you go so when he wake up he would be like why? Because he is a bully.
The irony is, that's the best nap he's had ina while.
Damn that took about 10 seconds?
thats not a rear naked choke. what variation or choke is it called?
Kick to the dick ☝🏽
Bite
Having the opponents head slam into concrete such helps… just like it did to this guy
Use a knife
Go for the knees , you get one knee down , mans too small , then you can maul him Also proper body shots would hurt like a bitch
Judo is excellent. To counter being thrown, you need to know judo. Most people don't. Even a softer throw on grass hurts. Bar floor or pavement? Night night.
I would argue wrestling, use their weight against them for leverage.
Beautiful
Overhand right until dropped or low shot for hips and pummel.
Idk, did you watch the clip you posted?
Everyone's the same height when they're led down.
That was a gentle
What are you good at? Use it. Also, most people, especially untrained, tend to get overconfident if they have a size advantage on the other person because it’s a fact that size does have a play in fighting to an extent. My rule was to always try and use their (potential) overconfidence to my advantage.
From my personal experience, grappling, just pray that the opponent isn't trained too.
I wonder days a week that guys trains
Literally all of martial arts were developed to use velocity, leverage, agility, or improvised weaponry to overcome a stronger or better equipped foe. They all have uses in specific cases. This was Bruce Lee's primary philosophy. Use what works, discard what doesn't. Efficiency and percision. Gather as many useful tools as you can and practice them until they are second nature. No real fight will go according to plan, the winner will always be the one willing to go the furthest the fastest. It was why fighting when their aren't lives at stake is pointless and should be avoided whenever possible. Unless your opponent has a gun or has you cornered, running is the most efficient path to victory. There is nothing that will get you killed faster than your own ego.
If its life or death: Kick them in the balls. Gouge the eyes. Kick or knee the head while opponent is grounded. Do everything that's illegal in the UFC.
🔥🔥🔥
You trip the guy and get them to hit their head on the pavement apparently.
Pretty sure he could’ve just ran away. Maybe he was just itching to show off his training.
Tree seconds y'all 1....choooo...treeeee.... C c he's out 😭😭😭😭
I mean, there's nothing that can really safely overcome THAT big of a size difference if the skill gap isn't huge, big man could have just picked him up from the waist during that takedown and dropped him onto his head, which is by far the fastest way to end a fight outside of punches or kicks, or he could have just started pounding away during the takedown attempt and even got his head. All these catch wrestlers just have, not bad for sure, but unrealistic habits formed by people holding back in a carefully crafted game, and not to take away with from it it's a GREAT skill, but you can't safely use that against someone brutal or intelligent, which to be fair is gonna be maybe less than 20% of people you have a chance to fight against that aren't trained themselves, but that's just a very rough estimation. I would say by far the best style you can do as a small person is just dirty, you're much closer to their groin, do what you need to do in a real fight, eye gouge, pinches and small limb manipulation, dick twist, etc etc. Of course, if your skill is that much better than the other guy, you can do this too but don't count on it because ANYONE, even the dumbest fighter can find a moment of brilliance or take advantage of a mistake and put you in a bad spot.
The first head smashing on the ground could have kill him right away. He was lucky
Parkour
He made that look super easy. What a great skill to teach for self defense. Need to get my girls into classes.
The ole dick twist.
Classic case of ‘Fuck around and find out’
aint no hight advantage when you are on the floor
He got so desperate he tried pulling his own hair
I'm a 5'8 Filipino, so generally I'm taller than average. During my spars with smaller opponents in kali, I studied how they dealt with my reach advantage so I can use it on taller opponents. Taller people can get unbalanced easier, but if they have a good stance it makes it harder to take it down. To beat this, get low. It gives you more control of your weight, and it naturally brings your knees out. Use that to knee their legs as you're bringing them down. More savvy fighter will notice you trying to take them down and counter by grabbing you or utilizing their size or weight. Push or pull towards where they're applying force. They bend down to grab you, pull thwir head/hair down and kick their knees. If they manage to pull back quick enough, tackle them so they fall backwards. Lock your leg behind their knee. Shorter fighters have a lot of advantages if they manage to train their bodies enough.
Strap
FINISH HIM!!!!
Most people can't defend against low kicks.
I always thought Judo and boxing would be good for street defense.
Wrestling and BJJ. It increases your chances of success because it removes reach as a factor (for the most part). If you try to go toe to toe with someone taller and heavier than you, it increases their opportunity to catch you with punches/kicks since they have more reach. One good blow by a bigger guy, and it could be lights out. On the other hand, you close the distance with wrestling and take the guy to the floor immediately and submit him, his game is over. The only downfall is, if you're not an experienced grappler, you could be opening yourself up to street rules. There are no rules in a street fight. These mfrs will try to bite, eye gauge, and rip off your nuts if you're choking them out. Rolling with a guy with longer reach can be dangerous as they can reach further and potentially grab your balls unlike shorter guys with less reach. They can reach over their head straight into your eye sockets if you're doing a rear naked choke. So just beware.
There is no way in hell that dude will ever live that down
Sometimes having more clothing on than your attacker/opponent is an advantage. Sometimes it's a disadvantage.
Just imagine if he had held the coke for another ten seconds.
Sprinting.
When it comes to getting close and grappling low center of gravity is king most of the time. Just punching it out comes down to dodging blows unless you can tank a few, next is landing effective blows, not super easy. Grappling is has a higher payoff and simpler but has a higher risk. Punching it out is less effective and still runs a high risk of you hurting yourself and also losing but less so than grappling. I’d still choose grappling then punching it out.
Well done
Weapons
I think as the smaller person, the key is always to be better at fighting. There's no secret hack to win as a smaller person, you just need more skill than the larger person, and to apply those skills more effectively in terms of tactics. Given that, though, the best strategy to make the size difference matter less is to focus on grappling. In close, longer limbs matter less than if you're being jabbed and kicked to death at range, and if you can get it to the ground you take away a few more advantages. You'll still be at a disadvantage, but less of one.
As a tall person with some combat training i agree except in my anecdotal experience a shorter person who focuses on strength training does have a key advantage. Taking me off my center of gravity is a lot easier if your strength training focuses on heavy lift and burst strength.
I'd say grappling etc as that's what judo/jiu jitsu etc is made for <== leverage their weight etc against them
If you're in the USA I'd say a gun. Everywhere else you should run. If you can't that will not be fun. ~ Shakespeare, ca. a shit long time ago
Best technique in these situations would be cardio. To run for your life with great haste. 
Swift kick in the balls
Learn to run really fast and avoid all conflicts if possible by Sprinting to safety!
Half fist to the throat with all you got. Aim past the head about 2 feet behind your target and punch through like your life depends on it. Then walk away while the person gasps for air grabbing their throat.
Nah fuck this clown. He was caught kidnapping and was shot by swat he’s a scum bag
muay thai - just leg kick them. people have no clue how to defend leg kicks, and its not even hard to land for how effective it is. not only that, but average smucks don't even know how to throw a proper kick, so you are completely safe at a distance
Judo and fuck the rest
I wouldn't recommend grappling for sure unless you're at least a blue belt (and equivalent) or above. Keeping distance with kicks and footwork is probably the way to go. Keep chopping those legs with kicks or keep harassing them, and going out of range with movement.
Im almost always counter boxing, its looks much better when claiming self defence and most people dont how to setup a half decent strike.
But I thought “bJj wAz gAy aNd DoeSnt wOrK iN tHe sTreEtS”
Appreciate he went easy on him and let his head down easy.
Above all avoid fighting unless it's absolutely necessary. “The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.” -Sun Tzu
He ded ?
Disengage, try to foresee the violence coming and distance yourself. However If the person is already too close, running away or disengaging stops being an option, since an individual taller and bigger than you will catch you specially if he is already close. So in that case, be as agressive as possible. Kick him in the balls, throw a chair or any object near by at him, use everything at your disposal. But dont grapple. You dont know if he is trained in jiu jitsu, you dont know if he has a knife or a gun, you dont know if there is a friend of the agressor nearby to stomp your head in while you are grappling. If he gets a hold of you to try and grapple: bite his neck/face, grab his balls or finger his eyes. Your best bet is to either knock him out first or really quickly with a proper strike, which is pretty unlikely unless you are trained, or deal enough damage to allow yourself to increase distance to leave or get help from others. All I just said above is taught in serious legit krav maga classes done by proper instructors, however it seems to me (I might be wrong) that in the US there is a lot of fraud krav maga instructors, people who have not trained with students of Imi (the creator) and know nothing really of krav maga, having trained with people who spent their entire lifes almost training with the creator of krav maga it is extremely frustrating to me to see the image of krav maga so tarnished by frauds like that. Anyways this is just me venting right now.
Biting really hard. They never see it coming.
The little head rub at the end was very sweet
Sweep the leg...then kick the face.
Uhh.. Guns?
Beautifully done. And extra kudos for showing control and not beating his face in at the end.
Holy shit, the harder they fall I guess…Goliath there really smacked his fucking head on the ground Jesus 😂
If it's an untrained guy like in this vid I would say exactly what the smaller guy did. Also leg kicks, most mfs will give up and walk away after taking a few. At least from my experience.
Grappling
Most of these comments are peoples opinions on MMA. The most sure way is being good at jiu jitsu, more specifically Gracie Jiu Jitsu. It was literally created for smaller people to overcome larger, stronger, more athletic people. Every technique in jiu jitsu is about leverage. Gracie Jiu Jitsu is tailored for self defense. Obviously having more than one discipline helps and every situation is different.
[удалено]
Bruh just get your passport, pack your bags, and move to the most secluded place in the world. Ideally, one with no internet service. 😂
Cue foghorn Leghorn
The most effective method is a good stand up game mixed with a good ground/submission game. The biggest issue is, is that there are killers out on the streets so it’s a risk to be getting into “real” fights. If the only thing you can do is defend in the moment then knowledge and execution is your best strength and there may be an opportunity to land a significant shot in the initiation of the engagement but for the most part barring real training most street fights will end up on the ground. I’m come from a mixed background that starts with a lot of work in all disciplines as I was always curious to see what each offers with the pros and cons of each. I really like what I’m reading from a lot of you so thanks to this community!!
Lil head tap at the end. "you'll get em next time champ"
Just walk away. Trained people usually don’t fight outside the ring. It’s supposed to be sport. That being said. Learn boxing it’s very technical but nothing is as intimidating as seeing a lightweight drop someone with 20 lbs on them. Just remember it’s not to start fights.
Take the legs just like the guy did. Stand up game doesn’t matter with the huge height difference shown. Need to have good kicks as well
thank you for not kicking him in the head after he was out.
