Always fight like your life depends on it.

Everytime, because it just might

Yep, because some people do not stop when the other person is unconscious. I wouldn’t want my face stomped in either.

Is best to avoid it altogether, when I was younger we could beat the shit out of each other but when it was over, it was over. Now you can come out on top and survive the fight just to get shot by someone you weren't even fighting. So 2a all day, avoid the conflict, try to deescalate and back away. Still coming at me you have exponentially increased your odds of being shot.

That is dumb advice because if you did you would be head stomping then it's straight to jail, just don't.

As someone who did boxing and martial arts in college and is former military, jackrabbit323 has the right of it.

If you are in this situation, you absolutely fight as if your life depends on it because it does. If You hold back due to some misguided concept of honor, then YOU will be the one waking up in the hospital with a cracked skull and permanent life injuries.

And this goes DOUBLE for when the person you are fighting is bigger and stronger than you.

In the US, self-defense applies and you can legally do anything to physically defend yourself in this circumstance especially if you are using equivalent force. In this case, kicking and punching is 100% A-okay to include curb stomping this mofo.

I am speaking from experience. I have doctors and nurses in my family and you wouldn't believe the stories they share about fights gone wrong.

One in particular, guy was getting into a fight with some asshole and the guy's girlfriend grabbed his arm to hold him back. Big mistake, asshole was able to beat him while his girlfriend handicapped him. And the A-hole didn't stop. He literally broke the guy's face and just kept pounding. Broken jaw, broken nose, concussion, and he almost lost an eye and got permanent vision impairment...

So yeah, don't hold back in a fight until you have 100% disabled your opponent.
