        I've never hit first ; for moral and legal reasons, I want my narrative to the police to be "he hit me, and then I ..." That said, knowing you're in a fight BEFORE he throws the first punch is key - don't want to be belatedly figuring it out as his 2nd and 3rd punches land.https://twitter.com/sonyasupposedly/status/1225165049464885248 …

        how to win a fight according to internet clips: - obligatory: run away (duh) - hit first - sit on top of them (also first)

        3/ Although, to be clear, I'm not saying "eat the first punch". Block it. Also: I'm not a boxer or even a guy with a history of street fights. I've only been in ~2 actual fights since college, and 2-3 near fights. So discount my advice heavily when compared against real data

        4/ I disagree with "staying out of reach". I'm in favor of "be prepared to eat damage and ignore it, all while delivering maximum damage per second (that's a vidya thing, right?) to the other guy".https://twitter.com/sonyasupposedly/status/1225166298981621761 …

        the takeaway is that staying out of reach and keeping your balance are crucial (side note: being in touch with your center of gravity is a great general-purpose skill; bodily awareness and mastery are underrated)

        5/ I think of fights in terms of US doctrine re "principles of war" specifically * offensive * objective * mass Hit as hard as you can as fast as you can and do not relent. Make them reconsider their life choices and beg for mercy.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_war#United_States_principles_of_war …

        10/ Also, in at least one memorable fight, I basically taunted him into throwing the sucker punch, which meant that I knew EXACTLY when it was coming...even before he did. We were f2f and I thought "dude's going to twitch / feint, so that I flinch". So I prepped, twitch came >

        12/ and so, of course, he did I wasn't inside his OODA loop ... I was WRITING HIS OODA LOOP FOR HIM So OBVIOUSLY the big sloppy right hook is coming, so my left arm starts moving up - catches his right before hit hits my cheek. My right is coming up too, grab back of his head

        13/ and pull it down ... into my left uppercut. So now he's staring at his shoes, eating my repeated lefts (I'm kind of right handed, but also kind of ambidextrous), and backpedalling, with zero situational awareness, and I'm staying on him So, anyway, moral: know the script

        Impossible to describe, but you know it when you see it. Breaking eye contact for a second and trailing off speech is a good tell.
