I once saw 2 guys beating up an old lady and using my years of training I thought I should jump in using experience from my training. The old lady had no chance against the 3 of us.

yeah, I'd be mad if someone leaned at my laptop too, maybe even punched seat, but sane person would've looked back and asked "what happened", maybe said sorry or something, not fucking act tough like he wants to start a fight
One of the most frustrating aspects of coming home from jail/prison is that you go from a world where respect is everything and if you don’t say excuse me for bumping into someone that could be a fight or it could cost you your life. Then you come home, and people constantly disrespect you without worrying about consequence because they can just call the cops on you.
This is such an interesting comment, prison is such a different world ppl like me who haven't been, cant understand. thank you. I just listened to the bobby green JRE , and this topic sorta comes up their too. So can I ask a question? Prison was explained like: some guys like lifers go from 0 to fight mode over the slightest thing, like even PlayStation games. coz they never learnt communication skills. And then those guys are setting the trends that everyone follows, so u go in and alget forced into acting the same way too - else you get made to pay for it right? now when u out, youre getting forced the opposite way. Like you're body goes into threat mode coz thats what u been forced into but cos of the cops thing, you can't act. And If I get you right, that's the frustrating bit. So my question is: For most people does it get less frustrating over time or is it like your body alway go into threat mode now? Like frustration change coz u now getting forced
@@saberxebeck To answer your question: certain aspects of that mentality never truly go away. I was locked up for a year and a half and still, to this day, have to remind myself to step back and breathe when someone is being disrespectful. My father on the other hand did 14 years in federal prison with the worst of the worst. He has adapted to life on the outside and is doing quite well but occasionally something small will set him off. I’ll crack a joke at the dinner table and he’ll instantly be back into fight mode before settling down and apologizing. You can see it on his face. Doing time is no joke.
@@saberxebeck Of course ! Glad I could add some info. Unfortunately this just goes to show that our prisons do not rehabilitate people and in fact make them more hostile .. my father was a non-violent drug offender and came out the other side ready to fight.
No joke though so many arrogant little kids man and I'm young myself. Martial arts taught me respect. People think they can get away with shit because they've never been stockton slapped
Yeah "he turned white"....... Whats the old saying "never scare a small man, he will kill you". That can be the danger there of being confident and having training, it may come across and scare the person into using a weapon. Unless you're backed in a corner it's to the death (then you should use a weapon too) ignore it and walk away! The laptop chair punch or the wrong turn guy is risking a beating and he doesn't know it sure. Firas is risking REAL(not ring, with a weapon) violence on himself ,which HE probably doesn't have a concept of either, by not just ignoring a minor irritation and walking away.
@@gwildordipkin6504 The Ar@b thinks he's safe cuz he knows how to fight hand to hand. Some people don't care and will use weapons. I doubt he knows what w@r is either.
@@Thecgsystem Yeah but crazy people don't realize that. Anyone who isn't crazy can just shrug it off, screw it, why play the odds to call out rude people in any aggressive manner unless they force the issue? Hell in both situations he described he woulda went to jail if he won (not self defense calling out someone asking if they wanna go as an elite fighter), and the hospital if he lost (especially HIM cause theyd have had to use a weapon on him to beat him). It's no win, especially for him. That's my point. Brian Grimes is right too in pointing out hes starting pissing contests over shrug it off situations, then advising not to get in street fights. Had been an old lady who hit his seat he wouldn't have gotten aggressive (I assume haha). Hes harboring some male on male "violent conflict resolution" ideals himself. People carry knives and guns and tire irons and pepper spray and run people over with their cars who punch them out etc etc etc. He shouldn't tell those stories then next breath act all "zen" about street violence.
Facts i know what ur saying but when someone yells at you and u casually say u wanna go mate and they pucker up it means they dont know wtf they were doing yelling in the first place , impulse is quick reflection can be a lifetime some people choose who they wanna be aggro on they are insecure bullies but you never wanna underestimate someone
No fear of natural selection we just spend tine waiting till we die, life has no purpose anymore. And with all these modern trends we can barely express ourselves as the animals we are
JRE just never experienced real bullying in a scrub school of a ghetto town. The hierarchy of power is very real there, and power is based on ability to bring friends to put someone down, but there's individual power too, and the person more physically fit and more willing to violently fight will always suppress the physically weaker person. And how do people know this? Well because they fucking fight, because they act like bullies only if they know that they can fuck you up. Martial training/experience is like a weapon that you can't even unwield. And what do physically weaker people need to do? Devote their whole lives to obtaining enough muscle, experience, fighting technique and confidence to be allowed to just be uninjured? This is a much more violent and complex situation that JRE is thinking of it.
Exactly. There have been literally stories about karate or BJJ or other TMA instructors who have gone to jail for killing their wives or kids etc.... these aren't good people. Martial arts doesn't make you a saint. If anything, if you have certain negative personality traits, becoming better at inflicting pain on other people, having people defer to you in a way that TMA encourages etc... can actually make some people far, far worse.
It's because some of these men know that they have the experience in fighting to distroy and are a threat to anybody regular that dont do this for a living, think they can bully you for no reason and take advantage at least for some I guess? But! can't beat'em...well?...run'em over!!! Hahaha fuack off asshole!!!.... Muahahahaha!!!
He's misses his own point, it's not just that you could run into a trained fighter. It's that even as a trained fighter you have no idea what you're walking into, knives guns etc, not just running into a better fighter
@@nocturnaljoe9543 watching LiveLeak videos will make everyone understand why you DO NOT WANT TO FIGHT a random stranger... so many horrible possibilities
Yeah that’s the whole other side to this in America lol I have no training whatsoever but I have a conceal carry license valid in almost 40 states and and carry a Glock everyday like MANY other Americans… not much martial arts training can do to stop a bullet… Not that I think it isn’t valuable though if they get their hands on you before you get to your waistband it could be lights out for you as well. I do plan to take BJJ classes soon sounds like a good challenge and confidence builder
Thats the biggest takeaway. It doesn't matter how much fight training you have when you come across someone violent. You could get stabbed, shot, beat with a pipe or bat, hit with a car, the list goes on. Know how to fight means nothing when youre against a someone who enjoys violence and will commit violence at a level you can't even imagine.

I think it is right because people nowadays mostly get away by saying what they want even if it can be very disrespectful. I think what your mom was saying is that people who got punched in the face have been taught humility at some point. People deserves to be punched if they are very disrespectful thus getting punched in the face teaches them humility.
In Oregon my Uncle Chael grew up surrounded by such hardcore criminality that he literally witnessed people publicly littering on a daily basis. It was brutal stuff man.
First fight I ever got in, I remember getting rocked so hard that my whole body froze. Not from pain, but the pure shock of getting into a physical altercation left me with no time to react. Most humbling day of my life.
@@jeffreymacmullin1653 Haha that's usually what it takes. I've won most of the fights I've been in as well, I've just alway tried to avoid them. There are 2 realities: 1- you never know who it is you're arguing with and what they're capable of 2- there's always someone bigger and badder, and it very well could be that guy
I disagree, just from my own perspective. I’ve met people who wanna fight me all the time cause I’m 5’7-5’8. I’m not skinny, I’m fairly athletically built. I’ve had years of fights as a younger boy, and I’ve had years of training in different combat sports. Boxing, wrestling and Taekwondo. I think Joe and the guy are just making the point that, the gym teaches respect, and everyone thinks they want to fight but don’t know the outcome that their facing... If I was violent, I would have hurt MANY young men by now but my ego isn’t in question so I de-escalate the situation cause to me...personally, I already know, 8-9/10. I’ll win, then I just feel like shit cause I knew what I had coming into this situation, and instead of degreasing the situation I leaned into it. I’m not the RU-vid tough guy and no one I’m around these days knows me as that cause I’m humble about it. Most just laugh cause I’m easy going. I don’t care, but every now and then when I get pressed, there’s still that want to hurt them, it’s just not fair cause it’s a lose lose for me. I lose, I get my ass beat, I win, I just feel guilty, and someone’s humiliated. Not commenting for ego, tbh just wondering if any ever feels the same way? Like, you’ve trained, been in fights, are used to violence and know...your gonna hurt them, no question, your probably gonna win, and this person doesn’t have a clue what their up against. I’m not a mma champ, but I’ll use a maneuver, and throw several straights in succession then throw a hook. I could kick someone in their fucking head, or take any limb givin. It’s just, not prideful too me it’s wrong for me to willingly be open to do so, in my opinion. I’ve been knocked the fuck out, like lights out, and I’ve had black eyes, cut lips, bloody noses, and bruised the fuck up. There’s always a chance of losing no matter what, and when I’m placed into the situation, I back down, it’s a matter of humility. Idk, to each their own, but after giving hurt and getting hurt, I don’t want anyone hurt, no matter the person. Perhaps if a bully starts to get to that level like me, the ego will slide... maybe not but most UFC fighters are very mellow individuals.
If you fought much growing up or got beaten up, you always feel that as an adult man, violence is never completely off the cards. It tends to mitigate your responses to a lot of stuffand make you more measured when dealing other men. Win or lose, violent altercations are pure carnage. A lot of women in general and some men never had these experiences and it shows in how they confront people about things. You can see that they are not in the least bit worried about getting hit because rightly or wrongly, they don't believe it will happen. The change in some men's behavior when it appears on the cards is huge. Maybe everybody should get their ass kicked growing up.
I'm female and I got a whooping growing up from my parents for bad behaviour etc. I know nowadays there's this whole thing against corporal punishment for kids, but I never resented my folks for it... in fact we had a good, happy childhood and that whooping did me and my siblings a lot of good. I am disciplined, respect people and am very physically fit. However, I do find myself 'ready' when there's an unpredictable situation... I won't back down and won't escalate either... I know how to stay calm... but I'm already playing through possible scenarios... and adjusting for it... I find that people who've never been hit, get so loud, instigate trouble, provoke and then walk right into a punch... I would never physically attack someone first, no matter the provocation... but would definitely be ready for anything coming my way...
@@fayecummings1946 Exactly, you treat other people with respect. As the generational legacy of violence and hard times subside, I can see the arrogance and disrespect growing in our population day by day.
True. After I got jumped as a kid (wasn’t a bad kid or anything just shitty friends) shit isn’t the same. You realize at any moment someone could pop off, fuck it if you lose you might wake up with no bottom jaw or you might not wake up at all. If you get a clean strike, they could fall, hit their head, now you’re on manslaughter charges. Nah. If someone is trying to fight me I know they must just be stupid, would rather run, my ego isn’t big enough to die for.
🤣 I grew up with a smack on the table from my parents. And in high school I wrestled. I never thought I was tough though, because I thought it was the norm. As an adult and "function member" of society, I've realized there are a lot of insecure adults and a lot of them haven't been smacked as kids or been manhandled.
Jones would beat Tyson? Christ what is with this generation. Tyson is a boxer. So you would then have to make Jones box. Tyson is a genetic freak with a mindset in the ring similar to a tiger stalking you for a meal. He punches hard and he's hyper-aggressive with footwork that is intended to close the distance and overwhelm his opponent. Jones would be ground beef by the end of it, his only saving grace being his reach. Look at the body type alone. It is clear that Jones doesn't have the KO potential Tyson has. Jones relies on strategy which would be fruitless in a boxing ring. You think MacGregor vs Mayweather was bad? Stick prime Tyson against prime Jones and the latter will be a limp corpse to bet on.
I'm retired military and I had a friend that would say about bullies, "They have never had a good old fashioned ass whipping." My dad was a Vietnam Veteran and a Chickasaw Indian. He gave me good old fashioned ass whippings and told me never to go looking for a trouble because you will find it and may regret it forever. He was shot in a fight after he came home from Vietnam and languished in intensive care for 21 days. There's some really dangerous people out there and the best thing you can do for yourself and those that love you is to keep your mouth shut and practice humility.
Yeah but then you get ripped and walked over because youre built small, speaking for myself. Its either that or youre a ghost and nobody sees you as anything worthy.

My son was an amateur MMA fighter and wanted to attend a training camp for his 3rd belt in Quebec with Mr. Zahabi. He was just turning 18 and my wife sent both of us since it was his first time out of the country. Mr. Zahabi’s facility had a place for the athletes to stay and he watched my son and told him he was very disciplined and good for an amateur and invited him to train with his pro class. We attended and my son got to spar extremely fast and talented UFC pros we both watched on TV. I never met a room full of the most dangerous people on the planet who we so helpful and willing to teach him and coach him. GSP was also there helping him out. Needless to say, my son won his 3rd belt and went pro soon after. But those fighters and Mr. Zahabi were the greatest!!!!

The moment the concealed weapon becomes less concealed is usually funny. Both of my last times were incidentally against four guys - the first time was in the dead of night on the highway with no one else around and I outright slid the holster on my belt in front of the jacket and the last time it was just an imprint under my shirt but it was quite evident that thing is a full sized pistol. Both times they lost interest quickly because few people are reckless or crazy enough to push their luck and see where it takes them. No need to even draw and point the thing - it just makes for very poor risk management as the potential for escalating is out of control.
This one dude that trained in boxing at my school was the chillest dude . Despite the fact that he could easily beat alot of kids in the school as almost everyone else didn’t train . It’s mainly the kids who don’t practice but have some physical advantage ( height and or weight mainly ) , that acts tough and bullies people . The ones who could actually hurt someone through training and not have to rely on just physical advantages are the ones that are chill. And they will help you get better instead of hurting you .
Fighters are usually humble and chilled compared to other athletes because they know what it feels like to feel vulnerable. People these days think that just being angry enough will help them win and fighting a better fighter removes that mindset and forces fighters to be humble. There is a saying that "If you practice at a McDojo, you feel like you can take on the world. If you practice at a real gym, you felt like the world took you on."

My coach always tells us to defend ourselves but if we start a fight or go looking for a fight he will stop training us. He always tells us I’m not trying to create bullies.
My thoughts exactly! Mauy Thai trained when I was18 -21 years old straight everyday. Now im 55 years old and you learn you don't need to prove anything to anybody.I learned to just be happy to still be on this planet! There's alot kids packing and they will shoot first and not think of the repercussions of spending 20 years in prison just because they felt disrespected by some stranger. So training should bring inner peace so you can walk away from a fool and know it's not your responsibility to educate the world!
igor I agree with that. There are different symptoms of being insecure, and bullies tend to have - or at least think they have the upper hand on their victims to make themselves look as well as feel secure.
My experience with bullies was quite different. The ones who were in some sort of sport clubs or knew martial arts, those ppl were one of the worst out of the bullies.
Combat sports teaches you discipline and respect like no other sport , I'm guessing the bullies you dealed with never learned anything of value in the gym
@@darthvader4339 so gyms that never thought anything of value ? Besides being tough. real gyms even the toughest in the world (chute boxe Brazil ) will teach respect and discipline it's the first thing you should be thought when you go in the door.

Michael St. George no, he treats people right. He’s shocked at people who disrespect others right off the bat. You’re an idiot not to understand this...
In my experience bullies who learn to fight don't stop bullying, they just become more calculated about it. It's in their aggressive nature. People get angry and do stupid, out of character things they wouldn't do normally. You could be a walking death machine but if someone pulls a gun you still might die
@@alexanderbrown1578 Exactly. I've encountered this a few times, where a guy acts in a very intimidating/abusive manner expecting you to back down or clam up only to change their behaviour once they realise it could go down if they really want it to.
You’re an idiot man. Did he fight the people? Or called out their bluff. Once you’re trained you have the confidence to diffuse a situation. You think he’s gonna let himself be a doormat to someone because he trains?
I disagree with the initial “oh they’re just insecure” statement about modern bullies. We need to recognize that some people just feel genuinely good about physically/mentally dominated others in a negative light and need to help said people see the fault in that. Or possible find the root of those feelings. If you feel satisfied from treating another person poorly in any way, you need medical help; With all due respect.
Well they are insecure, that isn’t wrong. “Feeling good about dominating others” is the exact feeling an insecure person would get. So you are just repeating what they said.
I met a guy at an MMA gym a long time ago (about 6-ish years now) and I am positive he was a genuine sociopath, genuinely seemed to enjoy hurting others, I found him supremely distasteful, hurting others in an unjustified manner just makes me feel dirty and gross, I don't understand now how some people glorify being a sadist
Ryan Sullivan I don’t agree with that. You can be insecure and not feel satisfied by dominating others. You can also feel satisfied by dominating people and not be insecure whatsoever. Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive.
The problem is tons of guys that train have 0 social skills to navigate life. You can't punch your way through a disagreement or persuade someone with a rnc
Training and being trained are different to be honest a lot of the gym I go to are training but untrained thankfully my high school wrestling coach was a real mentor
There is always a risk when you pull over the side of the road and come out as if ok you wanna go, because you don't know who you are dealing with at the other end, the other guy could be mentally irregular for whatever reason and shoot you or stab you, doesn't matter if you're a trained fighter. Being trained can give you a false sense of security that can put you in serious trouble or get you killed. The best thing to do in a situation like what he described is to not escalate. You only face someone with violence if it becomes absolutely necessary.
Well said, in a lot of areas theres people who have the “nothing to lose” mentality and are willing to spend the rest of their life in bars all because you slightly wronged them in some way. I saw on the news the other day some lady shot someone in the face after they “accidentally cut them off”. That person nearly lost their life
You got a point. However, sometimes if you don't escalate, the person you are having a fight with would think that you are afraid and that you can't stand up for yourself. And that will encourage them to continue escalating because they think they are fighting a weak person, so they want to show everyone around how brave and strong they are. Not escalating will make most people escalate. In other words, "the best defense is a good offense".
They’re vastly overestimating the power that martial arts gives you in random public encounters. Do they realise that knives and guns and crazy people and being outnumbered exists.
That's because they have spent or wasted decades of their life learning skills that cannot be used in the way dancing, languages, cooking or numerous other truly realistic hobbies and skills can be used; everything you can do in your dance class you can do on the floor of a night club tonight but try intimidating people and putting your hands on them and you'll wake up in a drafty sound proof basement with garden shears closing around your genitals. Guys grow up watching movies, delusional athletes and schoolyard bully wisdom and some guys never shake it off. It does not help that instructors will resort to any marketing tricks to inflate their numbers and standing. If somebody made these guys understand that martial arts, like tennis, is largely only applicable in a sports environment, their identities would collapse and they might consider suicide.
Charles Jourdain (current UFC featherweight out of Montreal) when asked on Olivier Aubin-Mercier's podcast why he doesn't train at Tristar said this of his only experience with Firas: At the time he was a rising 17 year-old amateur prospect and his gym had burned down so he spent a couple weeks at Tristar. He was fighting quite a few of Firas' prospects in local amateur shows (beating them all) so the coach noticed him and offered to train him with his pro team, but under one condition: he must spar him first. The guy doesn't like sparring as it is but agreed because of the opportunity. The next day, he comes back for the sparring session: Firas immediately rushes forward and starts raining down shots on him as hard as he can. Stunned, all the kid could do was shell up for a good minute and keep taking punches to the head until someone had to step in to stop it. Now you tell me, are those the actions of a "wise coach" who "knows the realities of violence" or the actions of an ego-driven fool ? Do all of Firas prospects have to full-on fight him and step over his unconscious body to join the team ? Or did he maybe not appreciate that Jourdain was beating his prospects and had the guts to show up at his gym so he wanted to teach him a lesson ? So wise and peaceful The full story is here starts 1:35:45 but beware the whole thing is in Quebecois French ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MT4AWrcvOD8.html
how many years ago this happened? it isn't wise to defend anyone even if is a close one, but it isn't either not giving the benefit of the doubt. People can change.
@titanaup You can't educate someone by just beating the shit out of them, you fucking dunce. He ought to know his place, that he doesn't need to prove to his amateur students that he's better than them.
Red Hook MMA here what to do... wait for cops to be there... walking by, driving by, called ect... then push buttons. It’s fucking fab. Dude acts the fool. Cops save you. They get to be hero’s. Bad guy down... You only a facilitator of love. 😁. Quality class clowns know this...best part is if you know you can beat dude but scared to catch a charge n get record dirty... Talk about efficient fight method... I’ve done 2X. Both times after I got a mark on my record. Learn mother fuckers learn 🏆😂🏆.
Bully gets shot in the dick. It's really easy to be too much of a badass for your own good. Especially these days when people are set to go off and are probably carrying.
This is kinda true but not really. Dangerous people come in all shapes and sizes. Hell Jon Jones is a party animal and nobody wants that smoke. The whole "quiet is dangerous" thing is a bit overused. People are people, just because they received training it doesn't change all aspects of their personality. There are alot of loudmouths who are just as dangerous. Conor being a great example. The diaz brothers are very loud and in your face people, and they are perfectly fine putting your face on a t-shirt. Dangerous people can be quiet sure, but it's not like an overwhelming difference.
CaptPostmod yeah because arguably the best mma coach in the world who coached one of the greatest fighters ever doesn’t know about fighting, but you, a RU-vid commenter does. You’re such a fucken casual lmao
@@JourneyToTheCage He definitely knows about fighting, but I'm willing to bet he has no problem getting into fights, the dude is justifying beating the tar out of people to himself.
Some people don’t understand that Epstein didn’t kill him self Edit : thanks for the likes guys. I’ve never been the top comment. Especially a jre clip.
