i have seen some impressive streetfighters do some damage in the past and these guys held no training in any martial art ,it was all fast fists ,headbutts,knees and so on very wild and out of control.

They may not have standard training, but they do have experience. If you fight often enough, you learn what works and what doesn't.

Having faced a few street fighters in the past. I would tend to think no. Don't get me wrong the men I faced were very tough,and even caused me serious pain. What I mean is there (probably) aren't any natural born fighters. There are just people born with a more violent nature. The thing that separates a Martial Artist from a street fighter is the Martial Artist will continue to fight long after a street fighter would have given up.

It is true that some people have a natural fighter instinct and others don't. It does not mean you don't need training, it does affect how well training will help you. Let me use myself as an example. I am NOT a natural fighter. I have to work harder to learn things...and frankly there is a definate upper limit to my skill no matter how hard I train.



But I would hardly call 'very wild and out of control' a natural fighter. That is sloppy crap that will get you beat senseless by someone who knows what they are doing.

I personally think there are a lot of aspects of being a fighter that you can't learn. For instance, the will to continue when you're hurt, the willingness to take pain in general, good reflexes. But no one is born with the ability of knowing how to use the different skill sets fighters learn in training, such as boxing, BJJ, wrestling, muay thai, etc. So, in my opinion, the mental aspect of the game can't really be taught, so if you have that down, then enough training can make you a good fighter.

No, You have to accept Him as the Son of God, which means that He is God in flesh. Look at this passage: Luke 23:40-43 But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? John 5:18 states: 18For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. It's clear that the early followers of Christ believed that Christ was God in flesh or at the very least in some why shape or form 100% equal with God. Even if you look at Christ being nailed on a cross. This was a curse to Jewish people and they were to give their life for another Jew - but yet they clearly gave Him over - Why? Because it was lawful to convict to death on the cross one who claimed to be God. that's why they had no problem with it. Even Peter's Church , which we still know the location has printed on the walls the worshipof Christ as God or Diety. So no, you cannot accept Christ without truly accepting who He is, and that is God in flesh. We are living in an age where we have no problem re-defining christianity and what it means to be christian, but neither the way nor the Diety of Christ has changed. And that's regardless of denomination nor age.

I have seen and known a few of these types as well as fought one or two. Most people and fighters don't fall into that category though and require training and are not what you would call natural fighters.

I believe everyone is born with some natural talent in something. So yes, some people can be born natural fighters just as some people are born naturally stronger than others and so on.



Hope that answered!

My cousin was a borne fighter. He grew up in a very rough neighborhood. With some training on top of his innate ability he became even better. and than lost interest in street fighting. I guess you could say he grew up, became more self confident and wiser.

Yes some people just learn quicker than others. There are prodigies out there. There are prodigies in music, math and science, martial arts, etc.

yes its true, but if they were wild and out of control im quite certain a trained fighter would be able to capitalize on it and defeat them.
