How to handle this fight?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
You might have a chance seeing as how you've boxed for 8 years. But the thing is your talking about someone who is is almost completely grown. he may look "smaller" but he will have more muscle mass naturally. being in a street fight means, there are no rules, if this guy is smart, he won't play your game. if he knows you box, he won't try and trade punches. that is if he's smart. now if he is shorter, expect agility and speed from him. if he's been in a lot of fights, and won a lot of them, there is a reason for it, it may be his all out brutality, or it may be that he can handle pain. Oh, and don't expect to totally own him, if you go into the fight being cocky, then you will over look a lot of things. be observant and watch for patterns if you end up trading punches. but, i personally am a peace keeper, so imo, don't fight him, try to talk it out.

Try looking through some of these videos. They won't be completely helpful but you could pick up some helpful tips and ideas. I am much older then you and have been for lack of a more respectable term a gypsy a decent portion of my life so I have been in a decent amount of bad situations, my best advice is to remember this isn't a boxing match so don't play that game. Use your skill as a boxer for defense and proper punching but other then that striking the throat,grabbing him by the manly parts and short headbutting are all decent techniques. Eye gouging is also a good way of gaining control. Bite if need be (ears,noses, and cheeks are the best biting targets)

don't go for boxing, go for any graphing martial arts, just only one perfect hold, choke or arm bar, you can beat him up

step on him

I'm fourteen years old, 5'8, African-American, Italian, Mexican, and White (if it matters). I've been boxing for about 8 years, and am extremely fit for my age. I have a six pack, a big chest, as far as arms, more of a Pacquiao type arm, seeing as they're not huge, but I have pretty big muscles. The best way to say it would be, there's no fat, and lots of muscle. Not to toot my own horn. Anyways, about 7 months back I dated this girl, and her ex-boyfriend is an 18 year old. 4 years older than me, about 5'4, very skinny, tiny chest. They got back together maybe a month after I dumped her. Now, let's just say she said some things to some people about how sexually unsatisfying he was to her in comparison to me, and he got pissed. He's been pissed for 2 months. He honestly has no reason to be mad at me, but he is and wants to fight me. Only thing is, he's been in more street fights than me. My bestfriends cousin beat him up badly, but he's had his far share of wins. I've only been in one street fight, last year, with a fat kid who pushed me, and I knocked the wind out of. I'm at 1, he's at like.. well in the double digits. Also, he's older, and he's more "hood" so to say. He had it rough, I didn't really. I don't live in the best area, but I started boxing very young and it kept me out of trouble. In the ring, I never am scared, and am pretty good. However, I'm not sure if I can handle a street fight with someone more prepared than me. I'm going to see him eventually, as he's constantly on my side of town, and if I don't come to him he will come to me, with people. I might as well fight him one on one. I don't fear him, but I feel like the difference in experience/age could be a problem. Any tips on how to handle this situation, and what to do in the fight? Also, how to handle someone that much shorter than me?
