but i think that since they only know offense with fists then they dont know how to defend against kicks, knees, elbows, headbutts, throws, joint locks, etc etc so its easier because they leave a WHOLE LOT of themselves open. also mentally they dont expect me to know how to fight due to their own over confidence so once i land a good blow their morale goes down a lot, leaving me to psyke them out and just keep pounding away.
against a martial artist however they know or have knowledge on how to defend effectively and fight effectively. |
what of when you are fighting someone and you figure out they are martial artist during the fight, but give no signs of which style they study?
