If I ever get into a "street fight".. I will most likely go for need caps, and break legs.. its' not that hard and it's amazing how fast one goes down after their need cap is facing the other direction and I'm taking eye ball out.. grabbing balls and throats.. anything.. people won't fight if they lost their vision because of an eye gouge... I will never go to ground if I can help it.. getting asphalt in your skin from rolling around isn't fun.... and if your trying to put a lock on someone and his buds come up on you.. yeah .. good night.. most grappling is one on one... stand up you have a way better chance of coming out with minor damage...
This is the thing, most of the time a well trained fighter can take on 90% of the regular Joe's out there. I say 90% because there is always someone out there with knock out power that can sucker punch you, or get a lucky shot and you're out! You could be "Billy bad ass" and not be expecting a punch, next thing you know your waking up naked with piss all over you, wondering what happened, where am I?

Even someone like Gilbert Yvel, Vanderlei Silva, Chuck Lidell, etc. can get their clocks cleaned by one of the other guys buddies in the crowd. So, stand up versus ground doesn't even matter here, when the guy who you're fighting has buddies waiting while you're back is turned and bam! In the end it doesn't matter if you are a Pit bull, as you can still get killed by a pack of poodles attacking you all at once!

If you ever end up in a street fight it's a weird situation, where everything you say you would do if you ever got into this situation, goes out the window. You begin fighting out of pure instinct and survival. And everyday that you are in the dojo, academy, whatever kind of training comes into critical play.

One thing to like I said it's better to learn both stand up and ground techniques, you don't want to be the stand up guy that never learned ground techniques and end up on the ground with a guy that is a ground technician and now is in a better position than you to take out both your eyes or bite your nose off!

Also, you don't want to be a "ground and pound fighter" as this only works if you are fighting a guy smaller than you, and you will end up on the top. What if the guy is bigger than you, and pits you on the ground?

All in all anything can happen in a street brawl, and it's better not to get into a brawl at all if possible. Maybe hrdgain is right and it's better just to carry a gat! This way nobody dares to mess with you that night....hmmnnn.
