MMA and Street Fighting?

(This is for people who train for MMA style competition.)





How often to you train for self defence. Eg. defences against multiple opponents, grabs, weapon attacks etc.

MMA and Street Fighting?
Quite a lot I have 2 grading systems, one for competition and for those who hate sparring one for self defense. It includes weapons defenses, multiple attackers amongst other factors.
Reply:Many people train each day around 2 hours. Then after that when sparring they have two factors (offense) and (defense) then each has many different parts including weapon,self-defense, avoidability and many more. So basically i do probably around 2 hours start ups then offense for 3 hours then self-defense for 2. So then balances out so i don't get many pain.
Reply:Not much, if ever.





Multiple opponents means I'm screwed. I'd just whip out my weapon and go down fighting... or better yet, escape!





Grabs... are you kidding me? Submission grappling is all about...well grappling. You generally learn how to escape holds from that.





I used to do some weapons training, but I'm far from competent in that. Similar to the multiple opponent situation, I'd pull a weapon or better yet... run.
