This isnt a thread to explain how much of a hard body or damimtough person you are.

But, in reality what makes a person a good fighter? Blind rage and hitting really hard? Or just being a calm individual and reading your opponent?

I mean, to me, if a person is really really good at dodging you should never have to worry about losing a fight, because not getting hit is always better than being hit right? I used to see fights daily after school and in the locker room, what really weird is alot of the dudes bragged that they were all tough and godly at fighting, but in reality, they were the first to *look away* and swing, and just hope it lands ( for reference the wind mill). Thats like the worst thing to do, its like closing your eyes while shooting a gun. Body shots are pretty dangerous, mainly your solar plexus, and the sides of your abdomen.. though ive never seen anyone swing below the head in a street fight..

Then again, guns are always a sure win in a street fight..just hope you use it, cause theyre gonna come back with a gun and will most likely use it

So.. in your opinions, what makes a person good at fighting?

Experience and fitness. i.e. Knowing when you have a chance and when you don't, then acting accordingly.

The ability to destroy his opponent's weak points. Mainly the groin for the guys.

A good fighter is someone who fights for something they believe in.
They don't have to be built like a rock or agile like a ninja.
They just have to believe in the reason and purpose.
And be able to justify themselves with more than just fists.
Use your legs too...oh and your head.

Counter-attacks. Dodge and hit.

Actually being trained in it. Anyone who isn't and brags about being good at it is full of shit. Hell, if someone is trained and they brag about it, they're probably full of shit too.

You know what annoys me? People who think theirs rules/honor in fighting, like apparently kicking someone in the balls is "cheap", If I'm in a fight i'm going to use whatever I can to neutralize the problem.
Unless you happen to fight for sport(Martial Arts, Boxing,etc) or happen to be in a culture that revolves around certain fighting styles (like the Shaolin Monks) the honor card doesn't apply.

Kicking to the balls is usually looked down upon, I would only consider kicking someone in the sack if the odds are heavily against me, if it were like a 2 vs 1, a kick to the balls would quickly make the fight a 1 vs 1.

Humility. Those who brag about their strength and fighting ability are often blinded by self confidence, which can be exploited.
