That video is filled with truth.

I love this guy and he is right.

The best fight is the one you don't get into but by god if you must fight there are no rules. Bite scratch kick punch stab jab punch whatever you have to just live and win. Lots of people want to look cool, fighting is dirty not cool

 

[Vigilant]

He talked about the "old days in Texas", I trained with him when he was still an Indiana boy? His message is still the same!

 

[Brad69]

He sounds like a Modern Army Combatives Instructor at Ft. Benning!

Trigger Time
Sounds like one of my Soldiers who bit a bouncers finger off. I asked him why he did it when I picked him up from the police station. He said " he was about choke me out and that's all I could think to do".

Yes it is, most people's $h!t locks up in a violent encounter. End it quick or lose quick.

Plan and train all you want.
All of that planning and training will go away as soon as you get punched square in the pie hole.
It will get really confusing if there is a quick follow up to the snot box.
If you are still standing and aware it is all in how you react/respond.

There is no dirty in fighting. Only winning/loosing.

In this no one actually wins a serious fight. This is measured the next day when you wake up.

"I look like a pirate ship" omglmao. If they put all these in a dvd collection I bet it would sell like mad. I know I would buy it. His entertainment value alone would be worth the price. The things you learn...golden icing.

 

[bmbutch]

Pretty awesome video. I've been punched in the face a few times, luckily never by anybody that could really punch. Still was no fun.

 

[Expat]

With my ninja like abilities, I am glad I don't have to worry about it.
That and the fact I never leave the house and when I do, I don't go anywhere that people typically get punched in the face.

 

[dudley0]

That was a classic in the making...

Clint Smith is amazing, I've been following their video's since they started a youtube channel some time back. There isn't a wasted thought that comes out of his mouth, they even offer online "training" now.

"Learn to fight and maybe you'll get old enough to need guns."

Learn to avoid the confrontation that leads to the fight. . . . but if a fight comes to you, end it in the most expeditious manner that results in a win. ie, living til the morrow.

QFT.

Broken fingers, broken noses, cracked ribs, no hard feelings. If you never broke any of your friends' bones, you must not have cared enough to really hit them.

I've been punched and kicked in pretty much every part of my body, mostly by people who could hit really hard. I dislike the sensation. The worst was a throat punch. That stayed with me for days.

I would much rather be punched by Rhonda Rousey than be thrown on the pavement by Rhonda Rousey or have one of limbs broken by Rhonda Rousey.

Clint is the classic old warrior who just says what he believes and doesn't care if he offends anyone!

As far as HTH fighting goes, training DOES count. The more someone jabs you in the face, the more you get used to it and it seems to slow down. You know what it feels like, that you will still be standing if it hits (usually) and you get more confident in dealing with it. I am a huge Tony Blauer fan and his response training can keeep you in the fight even when your clock gets rung and you are not able to think for a second.
