How do you measure if you are a successful street fighter or not? I've been told by a kung fu teacher that I would be flattened by a few of his students (they are all larger than me) in a boxing match. The problem is their technique is shoddy, and almost non existent. They are big though, but i still think I'm capable of beating them (my instinct has proven nearly 100% correct in life when it comes to this). The key to these people is their aggression and inability to accept defeat in a fight. Is this true? I've never seen any competition fights like this (well not many), as most fight are toe-to-toe matches and people really do struggle to knock an opponent out. The best ones are the guys with the technique. According to this guy they would charge at me and wouldn't stop! To me this sounds unrelenting, and hard to beat, but maybe this guy is just being an arsehole (I stopped going to his class long back).
