Re: what can you learn from watching 154 fights on Youtube?

Very interesting. Learning something about broad tendencies in how fights go is sure to be useful in trying to figure out how to make fights go the way you want them to.
I am here thinking of Aldo Nadi's analogy. Fencing is complicated like an orchestra. If you want to win consistently, YOU must become the conductor.
Put another way, this is the business about not playing the other fellow's game, but making him play your game.
So the lessons from the above analysis turn into okay, how do I turn this into a fight to my liking if this or this or this happens? How do I preempt? In my case, I do not want to fight on the ground because my best game is standing up and punching. The analysis suggests I'd best be quick about it, whatever I plan to do.
