The MMA fighter will kill a normal dude if he is skilled and the normal dude = fights alone. In very few instances will the MMA fighter loose, although shit like taking the fight to the ground = not that smart on the street (unless the MMA fighter = sure that there = nobody that will jump in and help the asshole the MMA dude = fighting)

take somebody down = BAAAM a kick to your face from his friend.

Exactly what Debussey wrote. Here one can benefit from having trained some Krav Maga. Hits to the throat and balls, keys to the eyes and such, and the "defend and attack simultaneously" technique. Even Bas Rutten praises Krav Maga in his "Lethal self defence" video

MMA fighters are trained to be cool while people who fist fight on the street are fighting out of fear. When you are trained in combat and are calm, you should be able to beat the shit out of someone who's not a skilled fighter and is in a fear stricken state.

That's a weak troll, even for you, Bluto.

What a lot of you are failing to realize is that the most important factor in a street fight is the willingness of one person to inflict real pain to another.

Another thing to consider is that there are many variables in a street fight. While BJJ is probably the best martial art to know in a one-on-one situation, it doesn't prepare you for what to do if your opponent has a weapon, or if he has friends.

Trying to triangle choke someone on the ground isnt going to do much good if 6 of the guys friends are ready to kick your head in, for your effort.

In Norway, the most highly regarded adventures for kids contains a mystical creature named a "Troll", very Norwegianish. The Troll is a couple of meters tall with long gray hair, and it lives in a mountain. It seems scary, but it is often very nice when the adventure creatures talks to it.

Seems like your relatives have taught you some quality cultural stuff    With this in mind, Debussey = looking forward to our MMA fight

[Camel Jockey]

no.

You ever fought someone in school? You are in an anxious state and you purpose is the beat the shit out of the other guy asap by throwing as many punches as possible. It isn't some elaborate drawn out duel.

A skilled fighter should be able to beat that.

Guess there's just no stopping this thing.  Everyone's in a fightin mood now.

i know nothing about fighting, but it seems stupid to think that a regular guy would beat someone who has been training to fight his whole life, IN A FIGHT.

There is a difference between fighting and self defense.  Knowing how to defend yourself from an attacker be it an MMA guy or a street punk and fighting toe to toe with an experienced practitioner are two VERY different things.  Anyone that steps into the ring with an MMA guy will likely get his ass handed to him.  Most people who try to fight an MMA guy in the street will probably end up seriously injured.  But defending yourself against an attacker be it an MMA guy or a highly trained martial arts practitioner is very feasible.  That's taking into account conditioning, physical stamina are somewhat on par.  If you take a fat couch potato of course he'll pretty much have his ass handed to him in any scenario. 

Most guys on this board with several months of practical sefl defense instruction (I say self defense NOT martial arts) would be able to physically handle themselves in most situations.  Now, handling themselves emotionally and psychologically is individual.
