How To Fight Multiple Attackers

Week #5

The Final Savage Installment

This, is a finale of sorts.

This week will tie up the course with a little something from every position, with a little extra focus on 'open space'... or situations in which you find some space between yourself and your attackers.

Let's begin.

Our first attack will allow you to take away your opponent's knee, while also being relatively safe.

There are different roundhouses for different purposes.  This one has been crafted to destroy a joint.

As mentioned in Week #1,

The moments in which you release your clinch is an opportunity to hurt people.  The following attack has the potential to be the most powerful punch there is:

The velocity of a punch plays a role in the degree of damage inflicted, and your opponent's ability to defend it.

There is no possible way to generate more velocity than this.  (While taking an effective attack angle.)

With a little speed and a little surprise, this next technique can quickly eliminate one opponent:

Most folks have no idea what to do if they're rushed with an aggressive stream of punches.  If you do it correctly, it can be beyond overwhelming, and incredibly destructive.

Let's move back to the ground...

and finish mastering the art of getting back to your feet. This move, while incredibly effective, makes it simple:

Get back to your feet while sweeping one opponent... and potentially setting up a soccer kick, or other glorious 'open space' opportunities.

And while we're talking about simple techniques that work very well,

Try this one:

A select choice of three punches on an Attack Angle, while combined with head movement, which can also be drilled repeatedly, inherently instilling them with an ungodly amount of power.

And let's randomly bring it back to the ground!

The following attack, while risky, can instantly take out one of your opponents:

This isn't my favorite leg lock when you're down on the ground, but it can certainly bust up some joints. 

This leg lock will not be appropriate for very aggressively stomping multiple attacker scenarios... but it's still awesome.

Why not use your clinch to sweep a guy of his feet, and bounce his head off of the pavement?

This is my version of the Judo move "Sasae", which translates to "Foot Prop".

A.k.a. Hammer-fisting into a Crow Hop Set-Up.

This clever little addition to the Crow-Hop Set-Up allows us to add a vicious strike to a Human Weak Point, while also 'Juggling Heads', and putting our weight in a position to rip a massive power strike.

And it's Finished!

You have succeeded!

You are now aware of a ridiculous number of ways to do savage destruction in a Multiple Attacker scenario.  The longer they sit in your mind, the more you will improve.  The more you practice them, focus on the details, and imagine them, the more effective your body will become at executing them.

Execution is the key to winning this kind of a fight... and knowing what to execute is 90% of the battle.

The rest of it is up to you!

Hey, I hope you enjoyed the course as much as I enjoyed making it.  If you did, please tell me about it!  Shoot me an email at trav@howtofightnow.com... I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks again for being a part of the program!

Key Takeaways:

In the Realm of Footwork:

The ability for you to 'Freestyle' your movement is ridiculously important.

Sometimes do it 'in place'... without moving your feet.
Sometimes express yourself via lateral movement and angle changes in conjunction with your head movement.
Sometimes start slips and then abandon them.  Have a little fun with it.

Horse Stance

Is a great way to build strength and flexibility in your legs.  This will make it easy for you to drop down into your thighs to get underneath punches, without taxing your groin or hamstrings.

Your feet remain parallell
Pull your tailbone underneath you, trying to point your hypothetical D up at the ceiling
Sink down until it hurts... and stay there.

U Slip Plyometrics

...will use your downward force when 'landing' to trick your body into firing a more powerful counter movement on the way back up.  The more powerfully you fire your muscles, the more power you shall build.


When combined with Horse Stance, this is one of the best ways to make your U-Slips effortlessly powerful.

If the following doesn’t make sense to you, watch this video on Slipping to the Left on your Left vs Right Foot.

Straight Slips

On these slips, you will move only one of your feet.  You will bounce that foot immediately back to your stance.

Your will be transferred to the foot on the same side that your head is slipping.  So, if your is moving to the left, your weight will be transferred into the left foot.

More Straight Slips

On the following slips, you will move BOTH of your feet, thus bringing your entire stance underneath you... instead of just bouncing the foot back to your stance.

If you are slipping to the LEFT, you will take a LEFT then RIGHT replacement step.  (Don't "Overdrag" your step.  Keep a nice wide base)!
