Those skills don't go away .Haven't boxed in about 18 months or so, but still would put hands on 90% of the population with ease.
Be honest...Do you truly know how to fight?

No. It's a scale. On one end is toughness. On the other end is trained skill. Fighter usually are more tough than they are skilled or more skilled than they are tough. There's a balance and a sweet spot. Being tough will only get you so far when you meet someone who's actually skilled, and being skilled will only get you so far when you meet someone who's actually tough.Are you saying that professional fighters lack toughness?
UFC is the best modern mainstream example of this. There are some tough mfs, real tough. Got that dog in them, but there are much better trained fighters. Then you have some trained fighters on the roster, been doing it all their life. Can coach. Have all the knowledge and IQ you could want, but they don't have that dog in them.
We've seen the bullies get outclassed and we've seen the experts get beat the fukk down.
What about though fighters like Justin Gathje or Robbie Lawler?
My first fight was in the first grade.
My last fight was about 17 years ago in my early 30s and I knocked dude out downtown after giving him a chance to walk away.
I wouldn’t start a fight today, even though I’m in shape, but most people wouldn’t start one with me either because I’m tall, muscular and don’t have a look that says try me.

Not really, and I never lost a street fight. I legitimately think knowing how to "fight" to an untrained fight amounts to just not being afraid of being hurt. My easiest fights we ppl bigger than me, I'm short. My hardest fights were ppl my size. Look at that turtle plumber guy. Small nikkas fight with zero defense. nikkas are crazy.
My people swear I can fight but everyone I fought is trash on the ground. You don't need to know how to fight if you can gass the other guy. I have a wrestling background.

@Unbothered you asked do people know how to fight not would they still get into a fight right? Cause some of these answers are confusing.

Nope, never got in a fight in my life for whatever reason. Managing to avoid situations maybe.
I think once you're over 21, you have no business getting into a fight unless it's your job. It's unclassy.The average grown adult hasn’t been in a fight since high school. I’m one of those adults.

I can defend myself but I’ll walk away from a fight .
Not worth it unless I’m defending myself or someone I love

Might need to do some intense Rocky style training. As a man you should never have doubts. And doubt crept in as you asked this question. Thanks OP
