Against two assailants, if there is no chance to escape the fight through words or running, the best deal is to do as much damage as possible as quickly as possible to the more confident of the two. The other will usually lose the fire. Speaking as a stand-up striker. Ymmv.
- vnorilo 5y agoAgreed - what I was trying to convey was that BJJ is a very good bet for defending yourself one on one, but if you face multiple assailants it is useless. A good striker may stand a chance against two or three aggressive drunks (untrained, not methodical) with the strategy you described.
- datameta 5y agoFrom the small amount of grappling I know in comparison I fully agreed with you. One can't hope to effectively control two bodies at once. Focusing on person one makes you a great target for the other(s). However knowing some good ground game to supplement striking would at least help knowing how to avoid being taken down.
