What is your fight record?

[closetohumping 17,474]

I'd bet 80% of you nancies ain't ever been in a real fight.  Of course, then you got guys like Kevin wrestling pit bulls and pagolins.

 

Me? I'm 1-1.  

 

My only win happened when I was in 7th grade.  One of my offensive lineman punched me and I hit him with my patented jab/cross and stopped him in his tracks.  He just shook my hand and said "good hit."

 

 

Second fight I lost.  Happened in 9th grade, to a handicapped kid.  Physical handicap, not mental. He had one of those baby arms. He didn't have downs or palsy or anything like that.  Anyways, while handicapped, he was also mouthy.  One day he was pushing my buttons and I took a wild ass swing at him.  I missed and somehow, he managed to get me in a  front headlock during the scramble.  So, while he was holding my head with the good arm, he was beating me with the baby arm.  I pushed him against the locker and eventually took him to the ground but the teachers came and broke it up before I could get a clean shot.

I typically have staff handle.  2-1-1.

Well how big a boy are ya? I'll come down there and whoop somebody's ass.

Never have been in a fight as an adult.

probably 50-50 as a kid/ teen.  Never really lost to kids my age because I was used to fighting( and losing) with my older brothers.

[YGIFS 19,452]

I think we're too old to remember to even remember shit like this, but I'm sure we've got some tough guys on here with a 37-1 record, 24 by KO.  I had a fair amount of fisticuffs growing up in a working class Chicago neighborhood with Irish, Poles, and Italians.  Most of whom could handle themselves.  I'm probably like you, at about .500 pct or so over a dozen brawls or so from 12-18.  Get to college, a couple of just drunken group brawls like everybody else, nothing terribly serious.    NO real winners there except those that aren't arrested.  Some fights while traveling abroad but usually over before they start which works out well.  One gig while working with DIA got weird overseas but thankfully, those guys can diffuse shit toot sweet.  

Really only two serious fights with criminal implications I was involved with after adulthood---was got mugged by two guys in my mid 20's in San Antonio and had the shit beat outta me and I had to hobble to my friend's house avoiding going into a coma.  Around the same time, a guy got me at the wrong time at the wrong place saying the wrong thing about a loved one.  He could have easily taken me in my middle-age state but I was amped up on adrenaline and alcohol and drugs.  Found out later on he didn't eat right for a year. 

I think about that Louis episode where the high school kid threatens him and he backs down despite being older because the kid is just faster and meaner.  I'd like to think if my kids were in harm's way, I could summon some kinda super dad strength but at my age now...I'd probably be an easy knockout.  Which sucks.  So I hope I don't get in another fight for the rest of my life because my modicum of skills and speed have long since passed me by.  I have no illusions at 47 about kicking ass on a dime. 

The last guy that crossed me though, it was mostly business.  But he did threaten my physically but we both tacitly knew we weren't gonna even bother with the sad charade.  But he shot himself in the driver's seat of the H2 he bought with our money.  Second guy I've driven to do that.  So that's kind of a fun twist on not being able to brawl anymore.  Cool superpower I didn't know I had when I was getting my ass whopped in 8th grade.    

[Knoxtnhorn 6,066]

0-1 in elementary school.  I smarted off to a kid much bigger than me.  My friends warned me, but I didn't listen.  Took two punches in in like 1/10 of a second.  Proud to say I didn't back down or cry.  10 minutes later we were friends, playing football.

2-0 in middle school.  

0-0-1 in college.  I got into a braw on the intramural brother fields.  Some dude dude from Sigma Chi (I think) spiked a ball on my friend's head, I punched him, and the benches cleared.  They did an all-call over the intercom to get all the other field refs to break up the brawl.  

[MissingInAction 25,193]

Infinite and 3.

I didn't stay this pretty by losing fights.

[SKJ 1,311]

A lot to a little. 

I competed a bit. Mostly smokers... a few times in some side action. been knocked out a few times. I think about 7 times.  A few times cold,  a few times I stayed fighting but don't remember what happened. 

Got jumped on a few times. 

Tried to fight a guy with a gun during a thing... 2 guys trying to "rob" me... I'm pretty sure it was more than that. Got shot.  Died a couple times. 

Haven't been in a good tussle for about 15 years.  Last fight beat the shit out of a guy who charged me.  Teep to the chest,  a few to the face while he was still charging... threw a wizzer reversal when he actually grabbed me then mounted him and elbowed him til he stopped trying. 

Anyways... not much of a Nancy, but I've slowed down a lot since I got in the straight and narrow

 

[Superhero 8,845]

2-0 in elementary school. More like I punched and ran the fuck away before they could chase me down.

0-0-1 in middle school. We got in a pretty good scuffle on the playground. I had him in a head lock and bloodied up his face. He left me with good scratch marks on my back.

[NaTeWHO 852]

Guessing around 8 - 2. The wins are hard to remember, the losses are easy.

[Zepol87 9,191]

4-2 from I remember, I got my ass kicked in high school once and really really took an ass whooping at the Knights Inn in Pensacola in the navy days although that wasn’t even numbered. Not a big fighter for the most part but if we got to throw hands I’m down whenever

1-0

smug little fuck with his rolly chair and his robot voice. Bitchass needed a second feeding tube by the time I got done with him. 

Steven Hawking?  More like Steven Bitchface. 

[Laxtonto 12,121]

6-4-2

Sometimes you get your ass kicked, sometimes you kick ass, and sometimes you wake up with the fat chick, but every time it hurts to get out of bed the next day...

Pretty much describes several years of my undergrad

[GoPokes83 2,240]

Total dumbass and prone to violence as a young man. Who knows how many fights I’ve been in, but it’s a ton. After I got out of the service the second time and realized just how easy it is to get permanently fucked up from a random street fight I calmed my ass down and I’m downright Ghandi-esque today. Just a couple of obvious scars so I guess I did ok, but if you’ve never had your ass kicked then you’ve never been in many real fights.

[52-80 19,256]

0-0-1 (NC), but undefeated in Internet fights

[MissingInAction 25,193]

My worst encounter was getting hit in the head with a bat.

I remember nothing, but my friends on site remember everything.

Absolute horror ensued from what I'm told.

Yikes, you are lucky to still be with us after being brained by a bat. I’ve been hit with a bat a time or two but never in the dome, thank God.

I can still feel the scar 30 years later.

[Davis Lane 5,631]

Like pussy, I'm undefeated.

[Pokoloco 1,282]

My last one was 2 years ago. I'd say it was a draw.  I won initially.. it was broken up- as I was walking away he jumped on my back and got a choke on me, I absolutely would've passed out if someone didn't intervene.  It had been a long time since I'd been in a fight, my fists hurt for a looong time. I'm too old for this nonsense.

[Pokoloco 1,282]

I wrestled through high school and some open tournaments my first year in college, it felt like I was in fights every practice and every match.. does that count?

I killed a guy with a trident

[YGIFS 19,452]

Brick, where'd you get a grenade? 

[Ten Bears 2,483]

I punted this stranger dude in the face at an all out beer joint brawl that he started.  Left him out cold in a puddle of blood only to find out 20 years later he had nearly died and had had a lengthy hospital stay.  Turns out he was notorious in and around Coleman as a bully that had beat the living shit out of many people including his tiny wife.  Some 20 years later his wife told an friend of mine that she was sure he was someday going to kill her or someone else until that fateful night and in fact he had gone around town on an apology tour afterwards and was a change man and husband.

I guess I came pretty close to a murder charge.

[Patricio Swayze 17,058]

I have not been in a fight since adulthood. As a teenager had a few scraps where I came out on top.
I started training BJJ in 2006 and since then I really try to avoid physical altercations. Not claiming my hands need to be registered as lethal weapons hahaha, but one of the best things you learn is to try and avoid a fight.

This is true, I don't think I've ever been in a fight that I didn't walk away from without pain.  If I won, my hands were pretty banged up, if I lost yep, in pain.  I wasn't bad at it, but avoiding it is a lot easier.  Mind you, I played ice hockey so that grossly inflates my record in terms of total bouts (I'd say 25 out of 30 or so).  

I'd guess my record at about 10-10-10.  Pretty much even win/loss/draw, at least in the immediate aftermath.  100% loss rate after the fact, always banged up.

I consider myself long retired, and don't suggest it to anyone.  

[nbmishoid 962]

0 for1.  Probably about 8 years old.   We were settling the street hierarchy.  Very efficient.

[Richard Kimball 1,497]

No clue how many kid fights I got into, but probably about .500 on that. My attitude changed in 8th grade, after an altercation. This one kid decided he wanted to fight me. I have no idea why. He sneaked up behind me and kicked me in the small of the back when I was approaching a stairwell. I kinda snapped into a robot zone, grabbed him, and started to throw him over the railing. An older student grabbed him back and walked off. The older student never said anything to either of us, and I didn't recognize him, but after I calmed down, I realized I was in the process of throwing that kid head first over a railing with about a twenty foot drop to concrete stairs. I started avoiding altercations after that. 

Did some karate after I got older. Don't remember how many matches I had, but I know I knocked two people out, and got knocked out once. 

The kid that wanted to fight me wasn't a good fighter, and he went around trying to pick fights a lot. A few years after I graduated, I heard he had gotten killed in a fight. It started me wondering what kind of fucked up home life he had to spend most of his life picking fights he was going to lose. The junior high I went to was the one where the kids from the state home and the methodist home attended. I was too young to realize it then, but there were a lot of tragic backstories on that campus. 

[mininghorn88 2,298]

1-0-1. Both around 12 years or so old. The win was a one swing roundhouse. He had enough. It was a neighborhood tiff. The second was a fight during PE. The gym teacher broke us up and made us hug it out.

I have had three more “opportunities” in adulthood. Luckily none of them materialized. All three had the other party being extremely drunk while I was completely sober.

Not saying that I was a “Kevin” thinking I could whip any animal, but as things were escalating I was checking out any surrounding advantage that I could use and had placed myself strategically. You know, “old age and treachery will outdo youth and exuberance”. At least that was what I was telling myself!
