I don't think I'd be taking it to the ground unless I had some of my friends around.
Otherwise, you'll be looking for submissions and get kicked in the head by his buddies...
Also, what if the guy pulls out a knife?
What if you have a RNC and the dude just bites a chunk out of your arm? do you think you'll be able to hold that choke?
Or if you have the guy in a triangle and he starts gouging out your eyes?

Intimidation works wonders for avoiding fights. I find that if you get into fights too often then you must either be one hell of an ******* and/or one small sommama*****. The fights I have got in were all ground fights. I never thought of them as boxing matches and didn't feel the need to exchange punches to see who could lose more teeth. The moves weren't technical or planned but whatever was needed to get them on the ground and keep them there and to end the fight.

If you have enough fights under your belt to have well thought out plans and advice and you're over 18, you may want to rethink your hobbies

You can't really bite down too much if you have an RNC locked up because your forearm is underneath their jaw and you are compressing the area. Plus, after about 3-4 seconds, they will be asleep.

One would rather not be on the ground in a brawl because you are very succeptible to kicks/stomps.

You ever knock someone out by suffocating? That **** is scary as hell. Thought I killed a couple of people. If pushed i'll only go as far as getting them fatigued unless I know there's no chance of the fight ending until they can't continue. Not all fights are the kill or be killed types... but some definitely are.

I have to disagree with you Jay, most of the fights I have been in have ended very quickly standing up. I guess it all depends on your talents so to speak. I would rather stand than go to the ground any day, but if it does and you manage to be on top, grabbing your opponents head and smashing it into the concrete is a pretty good place to start.
Thats what alot of guys don't think about is the fact that its not a controlled environment and there are many different elements involved.

Yeah, I guillotined a guy when I was 18 until he passed out because he didn't tap. I didn't know anything about subs then so I thought I killed him. Scared the sh1t out of me. He was a friend too, and we were just grappling.

Same thing happened to me, but it was a RNC, or more of a Newton on Miletich choke. I only applied it for 1 maybe 2 seconds and he dropped. I was hammered so I wasn't too worried about it

Unless caught off guard I haven't seen many 1/2 punch combos take a guy down. I don't think i've ever seen a fight NOT go to the ground that wasn't a "jump". Gotta love Chicago lol. I agree that when in a fight that isn't a competition; anything goes.
