How good are rugby players at fighting? A guy who plays for my university team got in a confrontation with some Albanian idiot on Friday and now the Albanian guy wants to fight him.
We live in a university town which isn't too big so they will probably end up meeting one day. He is a pretty cool guy and I don't want him to get rekt.
pic related is him on the left and the albanian on the right, does he even have a chance?
>>
>>691179824
Muscle tone doesn't relate to ability to fight.
You'd have to ask this question on a person to person basis and take a lot of different factors into consideration.
Ohpee are fagat.
>>
If this is in the US just shoot him.
>>
>>691179824
the albanian mongrel will probably come with a knife or a broken bottle,they dont have a sense of honour.
he might even bring his ape squad.
>>
Albanian dude looks like he focuses on muscle mass. Big muscles do not entail strength or endurance. Rugby guy plays a 70 minute sport of sprinting, tackling, and fighting others for possession of a ball. He is most likely stronger, has better endurance, and has a higher pain tolerance. I'd side with rugby guy.

Can't say much in regards to the Albanian but rugby players tend to have a pretty high threshold for pain and judging from the pictures the dude on the left seems pretty fit while the dude on the right looks like a mix of high volume muscle from genetics. Of course fighting ability is determined by other factors but I'd give it to the rugby player.

Albanian probably has more fight experience
>>
>>691181841
To add, the Albanian probably has a huge ego and thinks that he can take anyone with muscles like that. He'll probably be overconfident and lose.
>>
Dunno about other countries but NZ and Aus rugby team have very good fighting abilities due to much experience on field especially in high school rugby

this guy doesn't look like a body builder but he has the most powerful recorded drive in the world and one of the best props too

He would ruin a sted head with a tackle

>>691179824
Rugby players are good at Rugby. Will he have speed and power to help him? Yes, a whole lot.. Is the Albanian guy a fighter? Well, fighting is a sport all on its own..

Depends how good the other guy is and how aggressive he is willing to be, my friend plays rugby and he has kicked my ass by tackling me to the floor

Where are you from? I'm a Kiwi. I used to be a prop.

Big dudes tend to tire out quicker if they are not experienced in combat but since the rugby player does at least something that requires cardio it puts him slightly above the Albanian. If the Albanian just lifts weights and thinks he can take him he has already lost as he wont be able to keep up the fighting pace if it's quick... Tell your rugby dude to sig his elbows into him when he is close and the head isn't always the target, hit him in his diaphragm to knock off his breathing pattern and he won't muster up anything to hit back.... Fuck Albanians
>>
>>691184284
albanian guy has mostly street fighting experience but no formal training afaic
>>
>>691183821
I was prop/lock in rugby and now a prop in sevens. Massive rivalries between national teams but not so much international unless NZ faces Aus then youre in for a fair few fights. When i was playing forwards in rugby there was a lot of fights in Young adults teams, super aggressive. Generally you want to stay out of those fights because its very easy to get a cleat to the face or chest.

Rotorua when i was playing rugby, currently in Taupo for league and sevens.
>>
>>691184849
you ever been targeted in those fights when you played? cleat to chest sounds real painful
>>

Big dudes tire real quick but can deal massive amounts of dmg before they do crash
>>
>>691181871
I am
>>
>>691185126
Yeah bro, i used to start fights because ive got long hair so the other props would pull my hair right before engaging to throw me off. So generally id give a few before we were split. Cleats to chest arnt so painful compared to cleats to arms or legs
>>
>>691181871
Totes not true, although they may not have the technique they can certainly throw punches and block fine. Youve just got to be careful not to pick on bigger fellows that can get through your defences.
>>
>>691185017
Sweet... I'm a Canterbury boy. Played centre when I was a little kid, got bigger moved to forwards and played flank, got bigger and moved to loose head prop. Played til my mid 20's, then played cricket. Living in USA now though. Don't do fuck all here, gradually turning into an old fat fuck kek

>other props would pull my hair right before engaging to throw me off
thats fucked up man, seems almost like a personal grudge against you. Refs did nothing?

>Cleats to chest arnt so painful compared to cleats to arms or legs
do you mean kicking you in the arms/legs or more like stomping?
>>
>>691185685
Haha what made you shift all the way over there?
>>
>>691179824
this was mentioned here before but as long as your friend lubes up properly from head to toe he will be fine. Any punches will slide off, and any attempt at grappling/wrestling will also prove futile.

Met an American girl at a music festival here in 2006. After a couple of years of long distance thought fuck it, I'm going over. Now doing the married man thing in San Francisco. Go home every couple of years though. Miss Kiwiland like crazy most of the time.

It was more like just after engaging where its hard to tell since im in the middle

>do you mean kicking you in the arms/legs or more like stomping?
Both, they fucking hurt. But generally rugby people dont stomp in fights (Street fight etiquette) But usually in rucks there can be a few stomps on hands feet shins etc
>>
In my experience you should stay the fuck away from Eastern Europeans.

I once saw a Croat/Serb dude take out 3 black dudes and a Latino and was laughing like a maniac the entire time.

True, but isnt health care super expensive over there? Although im super jealous of the prices of anything.

Albanians are renowned for their hairy backs. Just tell your rugby pal to grip him by his back hair for easy control and leverage.
They also can't maintain their balance if they look up.

It's not baseball, they're called sprigs in rugby.

Healthcare is one of the worst things about being here. System is full of loopholes and yeah, super expensive. Rent here in SF is criminal. Average price for a 1bdrm apartment is ~ $3500 a month. Depends on area, sometimes less, sometimes more. New cars are cheap, as is gas and most gadgets. Food can be pricy, depends how you eat.

>>691184584
Well then if he's a street fighter he won't be familiar with unconventional strikes... Which means that the strikes that should be used are quick ones that are used in combo... Best one to do is a Forward verticals fist strike from the hip as the standard fighting stance would be to have arms raised to cheeks... If you are quick then you can pull it off... The verticle fist can be used to get past the guard and when it stuns them give them a hook.

Don't even start fuckface, sprigs are what most of the rugby playing world call them.
>>
>>691185145
Against big dudes you can't rely on strength then, angle off from their punches and learn to bob and weave
And when you bob and weave it tired them out and sometimes they don't expect you to get into their face so then you have a moment of surprise for a split second to hit them in the body to break their breathing and tire them out more, or elbow their thigh to cripple the leg
>>
>>691188539
Studs is acceptable too, but not when you're an idiotic motherfucker taking a swing from behind his keyboard. Then it's sprigs!

It's hard to tell how good someone actually is at fighting from how they look.

That said, 9 times out of 10 a beefy rugby player will absolutely fucking shit on some random gym rat.

You have to be Grade A retarded to think that ANYONE without fighting experience, training or no, is worth jack shit in an actual street fight. What, you're a big bulky cunt and you think you can just throw punches and block your face? Newsflash dipshit, your knees are weak and you'll get destroyed by a swift kick to the knee, elbow to the throat or kick to the balls.

No, the Albanian guy wants to bring ten of his mates and jump on your friend and probably stab him.
>>
>>691190543
Rugby is all about staying on your feet, also if its street fighting nothing stop him from tackling and if youre on the ground theres no way to win unless youre master tier martial artist. I admit a kick to the balls will stun anyone but i doubt most rugby players with half a brain will let you get close enough for an elobow strike.
>>
>>691190543
t. high school faggot whose never been in a fight before.

Striking means fuck all in a street fight, 9/10 grappling decides the fight. When adrenaline is pumping and conscious thoughts are few and far between, no one targets areas like the knee/throat.

Hint: Unless there are rules forbidding it (like boxing, muy thai), humans will instinctually grapple.

either of them have any training in fighting?

my experience of street fights, is who ever is willing to do the most wins.
like if you're in a fight and the guy's willing to bit your nose off, but you're not willing to beak his fingers off, you've lost.
however if you'll kick him in the nuts, gouge his eye out and stamp on his ribs. the odds are back in your favour, if you see what I mean.
