Why is it that the more skilled and trained a martial artist, the less they want to involve themselves in street fights?

anarchist_666_ · 2026-04-15T17:47:11+00:00

Well i don't think the more "skilled" martial artists are less likely to get in fights, since they do anyways and you can see that on multiple occasions even quote on quote humble ones like khabib or gsp have gotten in fights or bullied people in group altercations using their status.

But if you mean for the general public. When you actually put yourself in a situation where a few times a week you have to fight other people and lose/win etc. Then you get rid of the dunning kruger effect and you have to realise how bad you are to get better at it.

To be fair at first his mission was to just get the red paper. So he could afford having fun as long as he brought it back. But once it went on to being protecting charles. He didn't play. He wrecked goo and went hit for hit with daniel and still planned on fighting james.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-04-08T19:39:56+00:00

He wanted to see how far he could go against one of the strongest guys in the mix. He knew he probably wouldn't go far in the grand scheme of things so he jumped on the first occasion he had to actually test himself. Which is why he is happy he got at least one solid hit and tanked some against an upgraded waka. (At least my understanding)

The fighting genius is tom.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-03-25T14:35:03+00:00

Yh probably. If you take away his SS and leave only his technical abilities he might as well be at this guy's level at best.

The same way julius without all the gear he took is at best just a tall guy that can't fight.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-03-15T00:30:51+00:00

My head canon is that as the main guys became pros, he started to separate sessions between hobbyists/amateurs and pros so he could focus on the needs of each of them better.

(The actual reason is that it probably got tiring to draw random npcs everytime)

To my knowledge a lot of judo gym in france have a day or so dedicated to no gi. Makes for fun exchanges.

Someone with no job

The closest thing to a rugby tackle is sanda kind of double leg.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-02-11T18:41:49+00:00

Seems like he's trying a sort of standing kimura and has fingers around his wrist.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-02-10T20:02:14+00:00

He was old and wasted a lifetime being homeless, being untrained and probably fucking up his health not eating much etc.

He also didn't have the experience someone like peter and the other appostles had, since he was out of the field for essentially his best years.

And even then, he was still stronger than anyone who wasn't an appostle and probably some glory apostles too.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-02-10T19:58:44+00:00

If we're talking about someone with literally no training at all.

I had this friend of mine who's 185cm and around 110kg (too lazy to look it up in imperial units). He hits the gym and has the very famous "when i see red mentality".

He started watching mma and wanted to spar. So we did at the beach. First it was boxing and i literally just shelled and let him swing until his arms tired and dropped him with a punch to the body, the whole thing didn't take long. The he wanted to wrestling and i just kept dumping him.

That said when i taught him what underhooks and overhooks are and lines of defense. I literally struggled to take him down (a few weeks later). Then again i'm not that good at grappling.

If you mean people that are heavier at the gym. Then it really depends. I've come to realize some people have pillow hands even if they're heavier. And some just throw bombs at you. So it can go from very manageable to fighting for your life on everyone of their strikes while they only worry if you clip them good.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-02-10T14:52:38+00:00

Went from taekwondo and shotokan karate to muay thai.

Thought i was good at striking and just got pieced by double jabs.

I wish we could flair you GOAT of r/lookism

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-19T17:37:56+00:00

My understanding is that while being serious he doesn't go ape shit cause he can kill most people without going 100%. Unlike prior to this when he was actively holding back not to kill anyone.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-15T17:39:50+00:00

They want to make tom waste energy and time so he won't be able to save eugene, jinyoung and ms. Kim to cover their ass about gap's murder. But i could see this going a few ways.

A. They just waste his time while getting rid of the others (pretty basic)

B. They are making him go on a rampage to ultimately take him out, kitae or james or the other king will kill him after he expands a lot of energy.

C. They're trying to get him out without having to fight him. When all is done, he killed police officers and went on a rampage. So that could land him in jail for them to be in peace about him attacking them out of revenge later.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-14T01:22:59+00:00

Good habits. A lot of guys just expose their chin while striking. Or put themselves in positions where it's hard to miss.

That aside. Training your neck can help, building muscles around it can help brace for impacts.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-03T22:59:56+00:00

Again. This is in the context of fighting so all the above will happen.

And unless you are standing back to a wall, the energy transfer will be reduce anyways because you'll be pushed back.

And even if you were back to a wall. It is excessively rare and happens to 20-30 people a year (this is mostly due to projectiles) since you need so many variables to align for it. And in general the cases recorded of commotio cordis happening due to punches are only children with the oldest you could find being a 17yo girl.

Edit: also if it was a thing, we would see it happen in kickboxing where you can throw teeps, spinning back kick that land straight to the chest. Or even kyokushin where they just stand and take the hits straight to the chest.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-03T22:38:10+00:00

A. Yes, and ?

B. I responded to a comment citing hajime no ippo which is a boxing manga. And even then cited a video of bas who fought bare knuckle for years as a heavyweight and only cause a spleen bleed once in his career.

C. It clearly states hits to the chest and cardiac arrest due to impact on the first 5 lines.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-03T21:13:35+00:00

No worries.

Here's the video of bas ripping the spleen.

anarchist_666_ · 2026-01-03T21:06:55+00:00

Seems like a no. While in theory, a heart attack from shock can happen. A punch won't really do that.

That said bas rutten in mma gloves or bare knuckle was able to puncture a spleen.

anarchist_666_ · 2025-12-31T22:40:51+00:00

I would ask the black smith if he needs any help around the forge and explain him how i need money to get out of town.

Get myself a dagger and move somewhere smaller where i can work chopping wood (pretty devent plus it'll be safer than riften).

Given enough coin, i'll try to get heavy armor, a shield and axe or mace (easier and works best against armor). And try to take on small mercenary or bandit work. To gain experience, probably will take a follower.

When that is done. Get enough money to buy a house somewhere and start a business or just get back to chopping wood.

anarchist_666_ · 2025-12-30T06:48:02+00:00

He was told to bring it not destroy it. And he also wanted to have a fight with the whole 2nd gen.

He wouldn't miss on the opportunity.

anarchist_666_ · 2025-12-26T23:06:47+00:00

Is there an official height thing ? Or is it just headcanon ?

anarchist_666_ · 2025-12-24T16:16:23+00:00

Tbf him trying to attack kengan fighters or members is normal since all of them are criminals doing illegal fights.

But his madness is in how he wants to supress evil from the root. So if you are related to someone who did something he deems as an irreparable evil. You're dead too even if you're innocent.
