How to Fight Someone - A Quick Guide

How to fight someone - A quick Guide

This is a quick guide to increase the change to walk away as the winner.

I will give you MY opinion and i don't say its the ultimate one but its certainly some good advice especially if you never had a fight before and don't know how to fight someone.


1.Always face your opponent.

Always keep your opponent in front of you, don't try to pull off spinning kicks or fists unless you know what you are doing, even then i wouldn't recommend it, this can especially be fatal to beginners who don't know how to fight.


2. Keep your body/muscles relaxed.

Don't flex your Muscles unless you are being hit.
And while striking, try to flex your muscles of the striking limb only a split second before you hit the Target, this will make your strike faster and more effective.

3. Know where to hit.

Keep in mind where the human body is vulnerable, its best to hit vital points instead of just going berserk.

Here is a video i found, which displays the vital points and explains them a bit(sorry the quallity is a bit weak):




4. Keep "YOUR" distance.

Always keep the distance that you feel is best for you, don't let your Opponent dictate how close you two get.

Take steps sideways or backwards or stop him with a front kick, like it is commonly done in Muay thai.


5. Keep a good Fighting stance.

You should practice a good stance before you ever get into a fight.
There are various stances but if you don't know any, then try one where your legs are shoulder wide apart and one foot a bit more towards the back, also don't keep both feet in one line.

If you stand straight up and your feet are spread apart shoulder wide, then imagine a line in the middle of them.

Put one foot back and one to the front.

Always keep each foot on its own side of the line to keep a good balance.

Experiment with the directions your toes point at, that will show you how to move into different directions.

Keep your Hands/Guard up at all times.


6. Avoid being hit.

If he tries to hit you, step out of the critical area or block his jabs and punches with the corresponding arm.

Don't try to block hooks, evade them by ducking or sidestepping.


7. Attack

Don't just let him hit you, hit him back for your own sake :P
For example after evading a blow, he is likely to reveal a vulnerable spot or to be in a position where you can strike.

Don't miss out on this opportunity, this can decide the Fight immediately.




That's it for now, if you have any questions just ask ahead.
