How to Win a Street Fight
好久没来英语了，闲来无事，在WikiHow里面看到这样一篇，有点意思，俺好像有点暴力倾向啊， 大学还学了一年武术体育课，不过也就先来了半年西方拳击，后半年只有一半的时间用来排练了运动会上的一个武术表演节目，后面就没有怎么学习了。教武术的老师很能侃，很喜欢上他的课，俺和泰山一直搭档了整个学年。老师可能看我们都没有什么资质，也就先教给我们一些西方的原始武术——拳击，老师一直很鄙视西方的东西，对中国的传统武术应该也是颇有造诣的，老是在上课的时候鄙视旁边健美的一群男丁，说肌肉都给练僵硬了，呵呵，俺却在大三选修了半年健身课，对不起师傅啊！
Although the best way to 'win' a street fight is avoid it, we are not always so lucky. There are many fighting techniques around to deal with combat, should it come down to that, but taking a martial art or self-defense class doesn't guarantee your safety. This is a guide to help you in making simple, deliberate actions to end the fight.
omitted the detailed steps,just show you the Tips and Warning. These used to be thoughtful!
Tips
- Keep calm. If you need to breathe deeply, breathe deeply. If you know how to clear your head, do so. Unwanted distractions will only make you more likely to get hurt.
- If someone else is better trained at dealing with this situation, leave it to them. Don't try to interfere, as you may end up causing more trouble. Follow any reasonable commands they give you.
- If attempting to escape in the 'middle' of a confrontation, you should ideally kick, trip, or send opponents off balance before running.
- Keep things simple. Fights in films are choreographed. Real ones aren't.
- Attacks from behind are difficult to see and avoid, and in a real fight, it is not 'cowardly' to strike from behind. Watch your back, and attack that of your opponent(s).
- Many of the weakest spots are down the 'center-line' of the body (i.e. down an imaginary line drawn from forehead to groin). Take advantage of this in offense and defense, and try to face an opponent almost side-on, as it makes your 'center-line' more difficult to attack.
- Be aware of the 'zones' of fighting (from the most distant); weapons, feet, hands, knees, elbows, grappling.
- Think before you act. Only employ an attack, grab, or other offensive technique when you are almost certain it will work the way you want it to.
Warnings
- High kicks are rarely a good idea, especially if your opponent is untangled. Keep them below the waist for best effect.
- Fighting can cause injury or death, and land you in jail.
- This guide is presented as an assistant for a difficult situation, and is not intended as a substitute for actual martial arts training. If you are concerned with learning to defend yourself against physical violence, find a reputable self-defense class in your area. If you do not know where to begin, consider asking at your local police station.
