I was simply trying to say that a trained fighter is going to be better at handling a one on one situation than your best street fighter and everyone automatically jumped to "What if he has friends/what if he has a weapon". If we're going to make this jumps in scenarios then fine, I can go with

"What if I was actually bigger and stronger than I am now and had my Black Belt in BJJ and was a Muay Thai champion who also happened to be carrying an Ak-47?"

Avoiding answering a question by changing the scenario is not an argument I want to get into because it's a never ending argument.

See what I'm saying?

I see Dravens point that you might be facing someone who is actually quite good at fighting, and that I part I do agree with. That's always the assumption, that's why IT'S BEST TO TRAIN AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL POSSIBLE.

I agree. I guess it is like insurance. there is OK coverage, good coverage, excellent coverage, neither is going to stop/prevent a accident. Its best to get the best coverage as possible.
