“everyone has a great plan … until they get punched in the face!”
That really does change the whole game plan. I remember learning that one the hard way myself!
me too my friend… me too…
you are however correct… having been in a profession for a number of years that has required me to use my training on numerous occasions, I have seen the ‘knockout punch’ a thousand times… some drunk swings and swings and swings, and someone (usually a smaller guy) turns out the lights for the drunk!
im talking about a sucker knee to the nuts which I have experienced. I know a guy who always would sucker knee people in the nuts by grabbing their sholders and pulling them in. He won like every fight.
If you’re that close to me you’ve already been hit. Period, you don’t get that close to someone. You don’t argue you don’t point fingers and talk about who did who’s mom. You either walk away or you fight. If the guy comes within kicking range he should already be feeling the love.
map quest
it’s very easy just put in your cross streets I’ll give you mine and it has a neat little map drawn out to my door step. We can go over all this stuff you are talking about. Unless you’re not old enough to drive yet? Maybe your mom or uncle buck can give you a lift?
enforcer- your guy win’s because he fights people like you who have no training…
i cant believe i have sunk to the level of debating this with you… its like talking to a child…
get your mommy or uncle buck to drive you to uncle eric’s school for stupid people… ill be glad to educate you…
he does it out of nowhere while you are in his face talking or the conversation turns heated. And if you attack him first he could go to the cops (lets say if he has a lawyer daddy) and you could be charged with assault.
btw, Bullshido always makes fun of tma and their training methods as well as they point fingers at people. And they agree with me that the drilling clips lacked aliveness and so would Matt Thornton.
ENFORCER…
WHO ARE YOU?.. YOU ARE A NO NAME WHO IF HE HAS TRAINED ANYTHING AT ALL… HAS DONE SOME LOW GRADE NONSENSE…
SOMEONE WITH JUST A FRACTION OF INTELLIGENCE WOULD KNOW NOT TO STAND CLOSE ENOUGH TO GET KNEED IN THE BALLS…
PLEASE… TRY TO KNEE ME IN THE NUTS… BECAUSE IF FOR SOME REASON I ALLOW YOU TO GET THAT CLOSE TO ME… ILL BE DOING THE FORTY YARD DASH DOWN THE CENTER OF YOUR FACE…
IM TELLING YOU … ITS A GOOD THING BEING STUPID ISNT A CRIME.
oh yeah? well yer mom.
come on now this is just getting stupid. for real, the point is most of us here know what is involved in a street fight. Some others have views that differ. But this has turned into useless mumbo jumbo. Lets just let it go.

you dont have to be too close. He can reach out and pull you in to his knee by your sholders or neck. And assuming he is alot taller gives him advantage as well.
ok… i can see you are an expert (sarcasm)… so im going to bow out of this debate…

Not sure about this throw down, but would like to visit and train sometime. I do visit a gongfu brother in NMex now and then. Your just an hour away by air. I also look forward to meeting your Shifu someday, Ive heard alot about him. As for adding to all this posting, Id rather meet you guys in person and lets bang. I`m ate up with dumb a s s when it comes to this typing sh*t. Much rather train, and I look forward to this opportunity.
i train with the same teacher as mark… you will not be disappointed… im very sure you will both contribute and take something away!!
Actually eric is lucky enough to train with mike all the time being that he’s in ohio. I only get to visit when time and money permits. 
We can’t all have the fun though. 
yu shan, I think it’s no secret my doors are always open to train. Just give me a day or so’s notice so I can make sure I’m not out of town or something. But I have plenty of room at the house for you to stay as well, so don’t worry about a hotel. Even if jake doesn’t mind I can drive out to you guys and train. I think it’s only 5 hours depending on what part of NM he’s in. Just let me know. I’ll be looking out for your message. As for mike I don’t want to speak with him but it seems he always has someone visiting. Jake knows how to get a hold of him.
mark
yeah …mike is very gracious that way. He always makes it worth the trip. I drive 2 and a half hours one way every week to train; and it is always worth thr drive.
ekaltenborn
two and half hours one way… that is dedication. No doubt it is worth it from what I have heard about your Shifu. I`m hopefully going to attend the tournament in April. We should all get together, is your Shifu going to be their?
Shirkers1
I responded to your post on another thread, I`m getting old.
yeah some weeks its a challenge getting there… but its always worth it!
Im pretty sure we are both going to be at the tournament… Cant speak for Mark.. hopefully he’ll be there as well.

LOL, your kidding right? What I get from that statement is;
- The guy likes picking fights with people that have no training and would just rather attack without reason. (like a coward)
or
- You guys just grabass around and have a fetish with balls!
You tell me which one is correct!
You still never really answered the question of what you trained in. I still get the impression that your a 300lb. geek that likes to sit and watch MA movies all week and then think you know it all. If you ever make it to Columbus and decide to sit in on one of Eric’s classes, I will make a personal effort to be there.

That’s too funny. So this guy attacks first, but if somebody attacks him first he would go to the cops? What a Nancy! So why doesn’t somebody just charge him w/ assault when he knees them first?

Almost all the videos the fighters are trying to score head shots, when they have so many more targets to attack leaving them out of harms way and possibly ending the fight quicker without having to even score the knock out punch.
Which of these targets have you personally used to end street fights?
- The guy likes picking fights with people that have no training and would just rather attack without reason. (like a coward)
it was awhile ago that Ive seen this guy (since high school I havent seen him). But he would bully and intimidate people and when someone would start argueing with him or not let themselves be bullied he would knee them in the nuts and possibly hit them while theyre down. And it wouldnt matter whether theyre trained or not trained a knee to the nuts will take you out if it hits hard enough.
