You are right, in the ring there are rules, but the techniques and fighting styles are valuable..and I have even learned some of those techniques.What they do in the ring can be done to protect yourself... you may have a gun but if you are holding it to my head I would hope I would be able to execute the moves I know to defend myself.. the moves would work, its my knowledge of them that may go wrong -My husband does spar with me and teaches me defense moves. I just have never actually tried to hurt him , so I dont know how my delivery would go
one fighter for example Chung Lee. He is one of my favorite. I like how he fights.. I dont like to call it fighting. fighting is where you have unresolved conflict. this is more sport. physical training .. anyhow .. he is a mental fighter.. its like he's playing chess.. and thats what makes it a good sport.. and also why it is a useful tool.

Have you ever watched the Human Weapon. I believe its on the history channel.. Those are some incredibly neat shows.
