usabodyguard Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 damn dave, pretty impressive list you got there! like i said before i'm not one to back down from anyone.. i'm more the "i'd rather die like a man then live like a coward" type.. but i ain't stupid either, if i ever got into a fight with a guy like you i would give it a shot and see what happens after the first few punchs back and forth... and if i'm not getting no where, thats when i'm gonna play possom!... backing down is one thing, being smart is another... if push comes to shove and you have no way out... dont back down... but, if the odds are completely stacked against you and the opportunity to gtfod, by all means take it... live to fight another day. but i get paid to NOT fight... i get paid to use my brains and verbal skills with people... fighting just plain sucks, you often get hurt regardless of the outcome... which usually sucks.

BlkSSnCpt Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 i'v only had one of these incident and the dude was lik an inch taller then me, we pulled over in to a gas station and he ended gettin stomped under his car.... but i definately avoid it when posible... but if i was to run in to Dave (usabodygaurd) i'd do wat Nancy Reagan said and just say NO, but if push come to shove i'd aim to the old boys , sorry man im only 5'10... but Dave is one of the nicest dudes out there by his demeanor u would never think this dude could totally kick my head off right now and possibly be gettin paid for it -Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZZebes Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 i wonder if we got any "freaks" like me in here.. anyone over 6'8? 280+? i'm in the same boat man, 6'6" to 6'7" depending on the weather and my back and i'm 305-310 with a 36" waist a size 15 shoe and a 20 something inch neck I try to avoid fights cause i usually end up hurting someone bad and thats alot of paperwork. but i had some jackass try to put me in a gaurdrail after i beat his V6 Mustang and then followed me to the gas station where he exited his car and ran at my door where i exited and stood up and the look on this 5'4" asian dudes face was priceless. yet he still took a swing and he ate the gas pump and then the bedrail and i sat on the tailgate waiting for him to regain concesnous (sp) or the police to show up since the station dude called them. the cop looked at me and said i had to hav started the fight because that guy couldnt have been stupid enough to start it. so end up in the back of a cop car in hadcuffs until the station attendant shows the cop the security tape. and i was released. the guy went to the hospital with a mild concussion, broken nose, three missing teeth and a cracked jaw. and i felt bad for the guy cause i didnt want to hurt him but he gave me no choice. the cop said he had some crazy high BAC so it happens but i try to avoid it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wody Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 (edited) backing down is one thing, being smart is another... if push comes to shove and you have no way out... dont back down... but, if the odds are completely stacked against you and the opportunity to gtfod, by all means take it... live to fight another day. three dudes tried to jump me out here, and once they noticed it wasn't going to be easy one of them said "get the gun". i wasn't in the mood to dodge any bullets so i ran, once i lost em they came around in their truck. by then i figured the gun was so when the three dudes jumped out of the truck and rushed me it was on. taking them on was not only easy it was actually fun. they got jacked and i didn't get a scratch on me, i was more worried about the ipod in my back pocket then anything else.

06redSSrwd Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 so far in my life i've only been in 4 fights...and they weren't even a fight..i usually just hit them a few times, once in the face, once in the stomach, and the occasionally bashing the face on my knee then i'll pick them up and throw them against something and it's done with.. that's how i do it too. it's almost fail proof. but i'm no 6'8'' 280. lol, i hear ya man. it is the best feeling. kind of like an emotional enema (if you can imagine that) either way, these days it's just not worth it. especially in south FL. chances of them pulling a gun or a knife and killing you instead of just throwin fists are two to one. there's no honor these days ES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06redSSrwd Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 and also... "never go looking for trouble, but if trouble finds you, i better not catch you running in the other direction" is how my father taught me to be as a kid. basically to stand up for myself, but just because you can land some punches and win a fight, it doesn't mean you have the right to be a bully. so he always taught me to be humble, reserved and peaceful but when someone f*ck's with you, to make it so that they won't forget you and definitely won't make the mistake twice. now that i'm older there's a lot more involved concerning the consequences of getting into a fight. like bodyguard dave said: if there's a way out, take it and live to fight another day. i've been lucky to find my way out in my last confrontations b/c fighting really does suck (although it feels great during). i go out to have a fun time with friends etc. not to get into confrontations like i have something to prove b/c i dont. but if i'm in there where i can't get out...it's on ES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
