ground and pound?

Question

u see in ground and pound fighting style, the only thing that most ppl do after slamming other to the ground, they will drop punch/elbows to the face. so are there other attackting methods after bringing your opponent down? other than submission bcos sub wont work in a real street fight

Answer 1

Subs DO work in a street fight. In fact the chances that someone in a street fight is trained to defend submissions is very slim, makeing them Very effective.
The ground and pound style you're used to seeing is the way it is because of the rules the UFC has to follow. If you watch some Pride FC fights you will see a very different style of ground and pound because of the different rules.
You would see fighters working to pass guard so that they can attack with knees to the head from side mount and north south position, which is Not allowed in the UFC.

Answer 2

Subs work in street fights. Oma Plata the mofo and see if he still wants to fight. If he's got friends, you pull that arm triangle til he screams and tell his friends to back off or it snaps. You torque on that hold until his granma feels it and his friends won't come rushing in!
And if they have a knife, then I'd go ahead and break it.

But, without subs, just watching ground game in MMA will show you some ways of defending yourself if you're on the ground. Holding opponents head, and locking their body in tight so they can't throw powerful punches is a good, frustrating technique. They'll get sloppy trying to create some room, and give you some kicking opportunities.

Answer 3

If we're talking a real street fight? In MMA, the opponent turns on his stomach, and covers the sides of his face to avoid ground and pound, but in a real fight, there are obvious striking places that would maim or kill your opponent. If by street fight you mean what every kid does in high school, then you should stop fighting. But adults only fight when their life or the life of those they love are on the line. In these cases, you may hit these places before a match even goes to the ground. In this way, a life-and-death fight, would only last a few seconds, a half minute at most.

Answer 4

well my friend i can tell you now submissions will work better than ground and pound in a street fight. my art is aikijitsu. my sensei also teaches sword fighting. but basically it is an art for the street. similar styles include ninjitsu and kravmaga. there are joint locks you can learn that will imobilise oponents. triangles and armbars wont work in a fight because his friends will just come over and dance on your head(if there is more than one foe). i will advise you that you cannot learn techniques on the internet you need to study an art and practice it on a person. it is the only way. another thing you dont see in the ufc is frontal chokes or pressure point holds. again you cant learn this on the internet you need to study an art! you might not like to hear it but its the truth

Answer 5

Well if it's a street fight, you can always pick up a rock or a garbage can and thump the other guy with it after slamming him down on the ground : P Heck, you can even rip a telephone pole off the ground and whack him with it if you can : D

Answer 6

Subs wont work, i agree, there could be friends around or after you let them go, hey, he might find a knife in his pocket for you, thats why i wouldnt do a sub unless i was going to snap their arm off

you can do lots of things on the ground with strikeing, the sky is the limit, there are ways of breaking stuff as well while your standing up so you dont go to the ground, you can break someones arm and go on to the next guy

You can also choke the guy out, there are neck cranks and such, basicaly if you wanted you could snap their neck, lots and lots of stuff, the sky is the limit

Answer 7

you're right there. if you've got someone in a little ankle lock or and arm bar or something like that then they'd just as quickly bite you to make you let go. cant do that in ufc. i think the only effective sub in a street fight would be a choke hole of some sort till they pass out......then kick while they're down and run like a girl!!!!!! ha ha!

Answer 8

Answer 9

submissions do work, actually anything works aginst an untrained opponent, but your game need to be more than one dimentional to have any real sucess
