I never had Karate/MA training just basic boxing & takedowns (leg sweeps, etc...) & I STILL beat a Chinese guy who attacked me for no reason- he had MA training in Chinese airforce...

Yes but only because the other has 0 technique and are not used to being attacked by someone else's foot. They always wanna bump chests first and try to exchange right fists. Hell no...

I trained about 4 years. It never saved me but gave me confidence that if shit went down I could handle business.

My neighbor broke his hand several times trying to chop various items in half. It worked out great for him.
