How many real live street fights have you had?

Not too sure on the numbers mate.
Nowhere near as some people I know who have. be it for one reason or another. but looking back a good few I think I could have talked down, or backed off from. But I got scared and hit first, or got hit and then reacted ( which I was lucky in those situations a long time ago ).
hindsight is a wonderful thing. but 1 or 2 and hopefully never ever again.

2 situations where punches were thrown and only a few that de-escaleted. other than that i pretty much avoid bad places
