I agree that emotions play a big role in a fight being a hot head leaves no room for reasoning (picking your battles) with a cool head you can decide if the fight is worth it or not and not to take things to far example; in Bruce lees movies he does what he can to walk away until the situation is no longer ignorable and he is forced into confrontation

Well, I’m not comfortable turning this site into a compendium of ‘street fighting tips’. I prefer to focus attention on the fitness benefits of fighting training. So basically, I have no advice about how best to start a street fight for real world self defense.

Very well written, and here I was thinking you were going to tell me things like “take your shirt off so you don’t get it pulled over your head”, or “running out of trouble IS an option (and sometimes a good one)”.
Would love to know more advice on exactly HOW you suggest initiating combat in the case that you are forced to encounter a larger opponent such that you maintain initiative – if safety is your priority, I might suggest a kick to the knees and ditching. Though if you’re with female company, which is often the source of male aggression, you’re gonna need something more than that.
