(2 for 1) Report - Do Most Fights go to the Ground? + MUSCLE -The Beginning (Short Story) {BJJ, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Submission Grappling}
If you are a grappler, a martial artist, street fighter or even just a fan of Mixed Martial Arts you've heard the phrase "95 percent of fights go to the ground."
But is it true?
Undoubtedly, grappling is excellent way to end a physical altercation in a one-on-one setting with no weapons and other people involved (that's asking a lot). But is it a guarantee that most fights will end up in a grappler's domain?
This 6000 word report and public response provides the findings Bakari Akil II, Ph.D., uncovered when seeking an answer to these questions. Using content analysis as the major methodology, the author followed the principles outlined in the Scientific Method and analyzed over 300 fights. The answers he found were shocking and changed the way he and many others who have read the report thought about fighting (either standing or on the ground).
Find out:
- A certain technique that was almost useless in most fights
- Who you would most likely be involved with in a fight
- What to do if you can't avoid a fight
- The best ways to avoid trouble
- What happens after a person hits the ground
- What body feature will almost certainly result in you getting tossed around and pummeled
This report also includes some of the general public's response to this study as well.
