There are a few things in this world that are worse than a bully picking on someone they perceive as less than but not many, however; one of the most gratifying acts one can witness is when a bully gets a taste of his own medicine. Often times situations arise when a guy is being a bully or a jerk but you find yourself in a situation where throwing a punch just doesn’t seem justifiable. What should you do then?

There are not many people that leave the house during the day or at night that intend to get into a street fight. There are some that do but those people are few and far between as the average Joe has no intentions of getting into a physical altercation…EVER. Knowing how to properly diffuse a situation with little to no damage being done is essential.

Not only is it essential for the safety of yourself as well as those around you but it is also essential in keeping you from the hassle of being arrested. So what should you do when a physical altercation is unavoidable but you do not want to throw the first punch?

Enter the guys from Fightips.

Remember that neither www.mixedmartialarts.com nor myself promote street fighting or physical acts of violence in any form or fashion but there are those occasions that arise which simply require that you defend yourself or you may, in fact, be in grave danger…we most definitely support and promote intelligent self-defense.

So check out the video below as the guys from Fightips give you an alternative to diffuse a situation rather than simply smashing someone in the mouth.
