My younger brother told me I need to beat someone up for him. I told him fighting on the street is obsolete. If you fight someone, you may have to deal with being jumped by his friends and family with baseball bats. You might get shot or stabbed. You might go to jail. Better to just use the law to your advantage I told him.
He looked so disappointed in me. He asked why I train so hard and spend so much time and energy into it if it's pointless to fight in the street. I tell him it's the nature of man. I feel alive when I spar and grapple. It's hard, I get hurt, I heal and do it again. Animals spar all the time. It's part of nature. It's part of our nature.
I really think fighting is an important part of humanity that has been lost to modern society. That's why we fight in rings and cages now. The base instincts don't go away just because society changes.
