Street fights, by their very nature, are pretty unpredictable. You never know what to expect and more often than not the delivery is actually different from what you’d have thought. Anything can happen in a street fight, they say. It might sound a bit cliche but it’s true.
Now, let’s be honest here, most street fights are messy, and don’t really showcase the beauty of martial arts. I’m talking about street fights filled with hair-grabbing, messy punches, and overall awful technique. Fortunately for us martial arts enthusiasts though, there are rare instances where beautiful techniques are being displayed in street altercations.
And sometimes those techniques are so crazy that you can’t help but to wonder how the f**k someone managed to pull them off on the street, while watching with admiration. Have a look at the 3 CRAZIEST techniques ever pulled off in a street fight!
3) Hard spinning back fist KO
Don’t blink while watching this one. I’m serious. Here we have two teenagers squaring off on a sunny afternoon. The bare-chested teen is throwing punches but the other one is avoiding all of them with his hands down, Dominick Cruz-style. The elusive teen then waits for an opening and BAM! He lands a HARD spinning back fist that floored his opponent. Look at the speed of that spinning back fist. It is a thing of beauty.

2) Kid pulls off flying armbar against bully
Instances where a bully gets dealt with are pretty satisfying. The following one though is so awesome on a technical level that it might just be the sweetest bully beatdown I’ve ever witnessed. After getting picked on, the kid in black shorts goes for an amazing sequence that goes as follows: neat straight right, switch high kick, takedown, brutal ground and pound, and a freaking FLYING ARMBAR to seal the deal. Boom. That’s all she wrote. What a smooth display of MMA!

1) Modified Camel Clutch?
Alright dear readers, you’re encouraged to chime in in the comments section if you happen to know the name of that technique because I sure as f**k don’t. The kid with the blue sweater grabs his foe’s neck from behind and uses his back as leverage to lift him off the ground. He then grabs the inside of his left thigh.
He is now holding him in a choke that seems pretty hard to get off of. What looks like a WWE move reveals itself to be a pretty effective chokehold, and the poor kid is being put to sleep in mere seconds. Would such move be effective in the Octagon? I don’t know, what I do know is I wouldn’t want to get caught in it!
