Back in school I fought 3 or 4 times nothing big a few punches. I once got my ass kicked for my backetball and money by 5 guys in the ghetto.

[mbloves L.A.]

I know I lost two times. I was quite a whippersnapper back in the days of elementary and middle school. I know I used to bully a 5th grader when I was in 2nd. He was bigger than me, I wasn't punking kids with muscular dystrophy or anything. In Russia, when I was in 5th grade some kid in 10th grade was making fun of my race, since I am Ingush and the war started in Chechnya, myself being kind a popular guy in my class, my honor was on the line, so when my friends were all around I started talking (bleep) to the guy. He pushed me with his leg, I fell down, and by this time I am incredibly pissed off so I take off my belt and hit the guy right in the face with the metal part. He starts bleeding and I ran after his friend started chasing me. I got into a a lot of trouble for that, my mom was incredibly pissed and so was my dad, but the next day he and I were rolling about this.

I do know I fought a lot in school.

Once when I was in 6th grade. I think I won

Funny thing is that it was over a frisbee.

I had a very slight black eye and he had a fat lip (I think it even bled a little bit) for a couple of days.

So who won?

The last fight i got into was when i was 14 (im 23 now). wasnt really much of a fight. I just started pummeling some guy because i thought he threw my shoe in the tree. Turns out I was pummeling the wrong guy. I almost got into another one a couple weeks back. I caused a pretty big scene at the Glendale Galleria.

I am not a thug wannabe but man, you Americans don't fight much at all!

These days though, I would pretty much never get in a fight even if I was provoked ... unless it was really extreme, because I don't want to get arrested.

[flashakadrano]

i fight all the time.

i love it.

almost as much as i love basketball.

hahaha i'm a boxing champion in the making. maybe someday i can fight for money.

but as for fighting outside the ring... i've only been in 4 fights one on one, and maybe 4 or 5 with groups of people. back when i was in school.

now, i'm not stupid enough to get into fights because i don't want to go to jail, and you never know if the other guy has a gun, or has a friend who does.

Yeah I got my ass kicked in 2nd grade. I was crying. No excuses.

When I was in elementary school, I was always getting in these little fights... Once, I stood up for kids that were being bullied, by a guy who refused to let others have their turn, in a tether ball game... [wonder if anyone even knows what tether-ball is].

On one of my birthdays, I got into a fight, with my best friend, because he said that the Mexicans killed Davy Crockett...

In the Air Force, a couple of buddies, and me, met some rowdy bar patrons, in the alley... We were all pretty far gone, already... I have these hazy mental snapshots, of me, tossing some guy in the trash...

Later, in the Navy, we had been drinking Sake, in a bar, then we went to a strip-club... Some Army guys were standing in front of our table, so I just picked a guy up, by his lapels, and told him to get out of the way... This guy's buddies jumped in, and there were punches coming from all over, but I couldn't even feel them, because of the Sake!!... I helped the bouncers toss the Army Guys out. This was in Chicago, and the freaking bouncers were shorter than me, but tough and wiry...

I've been in two fights. And both were on the basketball court (2 in high school).

I've been in plenty of shoving matches, as well.

Well, I've been in a whole lot of fights. More than I can really recollect, count, and care for. I trained and fought as amateur boxer for a couple of years but when it came down to either training or hanging w/ girls I chose the latter. I didn't do too bad as an amateur boxer, I just wasn't motivated enough.

For awhile, I also was associated with rather shady individuals who sought out trouble. Couple that with a short fuse and.. well I'm ashamed to say the amount of fisticuffs I participated in.

I can honestly say I've won more than loss. BUT, I've had my ass handed to me royally.. I've been jumped by dozens, stabbed, shot at, and beaten w/ numerous weapons.

After all these years I really wish I could have been more of a peaceful person. All I have to show for all my fights is some scars, boxers fracture in both hands (hurts to make a fist sometimes), and having to watch my back damn near everywhere I go.

My last real fight was back in high school. Knocked a tooth out of some jackass who was firing spitballs into my hair (a shorter version of Anderson Varejao). Next thing I knew, his brother was on my posterior. Muscular guy, but my size so I figured no big deal and squared off. Suddenly a punch took my almost by surprise ("how did he get that in?"), I moved my head (always move) so it deflected off my cheek. Took another body punch to my shoulder, deflected again but the impact was frigging hard for a deflected punch. Fired off a couple of punches, but he did a good job blocking them. It was broken up.

Later that day I found out the SOB was already a boxing champ at the Y, and was going out for Golden Gloves. And that was the good news. The bad news was that he was a gang member.

I was safe in school, though as a precaution I carried a knife.

I fought a lot in jr high and a little bit in high school. In jr high mostly because I was the brown kid surrounded by a bunch of racists and I had to defend myself. The only one I remember losing was when I got jumped by some wannabe crips in high school. God I hated those guys.

[Socks]

I got beat down pretty regular in elementary school. Tends to happen when you're a foot shorter than everyone else with glasses and a dorky (some would call it "classic") rice-bowl haircut and go to magnet school classes and the home-school kids are 90% Mexican. There were a few I would call wins in there, but mostly no one knew how to fight well, so just lots of torn clothing, a few black eyes and fat lips. Maybe a few serious beatings I took and maybe one I gave.

What I can definitely say is my mom and pops would whoop me even harder when they would get calls from the school because they felt like no matter what I shouldn't have been fighting. I wanted to avoid fights back then cuz even though I had a chance at school, I had no chance against my mom and her belt.

And I guarantee you I lost every time to my parents.

The best fights are the online fights....you know those internet bullies can be some mean and tough S.O.B.s. You guys ever run across some of those people?

[999]

after watching the nuggets vs. knicks... i have to come back to my thread and post thoughts....


(bleep) stern!!!... back in the 80's fights happened so often... it was like every two weeks there was a fight... I dont know why its such a big deal now....... i point the finger at stern for implementing all these rules for the game, before the game, after the game, off the court etc......... IF YOU TREAT THESE PLAYERS LIKE CHILDREN....theyre GONNA ACT LIKE CHILDREN...plain and simple.... (bleep) stern....its his fault this (bleep) is happening the way it is...... i garuntee you if nothing is done about these suspension rules someone is really gonna get hurt....


BTW... Melo is a wuss for that sucker punch right hook followed by a track star sprint to the locker room...

[mbloves L.A.]

You can't expect a dude named "Carmello" to act like a man can you?

What can I say, he is "sweet".

Wait! The last sentence of my previous post may be misinterpreted, but remember there is no one manlier than myself. I was gonna say 999, but with all the shaving threads he did compromise his position.
