I guess its fine to kick em in the balls during during a fight, but you'd be better off to just punch it out. I've seen a lot of bar/street fights and never once seen an effective nut kick.

Put up your dukes, or GTFO and let the real men settle things.

...Or just pull your gun if you can't fight.

 
Hell yeah I'd do it.  Heck I'd machine gun punch at a dudes #### like they were speed bags if the safety of myself or my family was at stake.  Yeah--I'm hood.

I took a beginner's karate lesson at the Y when I was around 13. The instructor had spent the better part of the class having us practice stances, balance, and keeping our guards up.

At the end of the class, he demonstrated a swift nut kick on his assistant (thankfully, no contact in the demo.) Right before he dismissed us, he said, "That's he easiest & quickest way to end a fight. If I hear of any of y'all getting into a fight this weekend and NOT trying to end it this way, you'll have to answer to me next week."

I figured I was set from that point. So far, so good.

 
it's ok if you think your life is in danger or your health will be severely adversely affected.

if it's two equally matched guys just getting a couple shots in likely to leave with nothing more than a bloodied nose, no.

True story, on NYE last year in downtown Nashville, it was a giant mess. Insanely crowded, to the point you got carried away in waves of people.  We had gotten a decent spot to watch Chris Stapleton, but when Kings of Leon came on, the bars on 2nd/broad all emptied and it was insane.  So we decided to leave and watch the concert on one of the monitors they had set up.  My wife was in front of me, and we were trying to navigate through the sea of people to walk up 2nd. Some random guy apparently was getting annoyed with people bumping into him while he was trying to stand on the side (I can't understate just how many people there were, you had absolutely 0 personal space, and of course, everyone was drunk) and when my wife was being pushed passed him, must have knocked into him as well.  This guy turned around and shoved her straight to the ground. He had his back to me because he kind of stepped in between us to push her. So here was this ######, who had just shoved my wife to the ground, with his back to me and legs spread slightly.  I kicked that guy as hard as I fcking could, right between the legs, and I played collegiate soccer, and still play in a men's league, so I'd like to think I can kick pretty hard.  He went down, his friend that saw it helped my wife up, and started apologizing immediately to keep it from escalating further. We went on our way, and the guy was still on the ground as we moved past.  

I voted yes.

oh wow dude.  I know it was in the moment, but I don't know about that.  I think you have to grab him by the shoulder, turn him around and face him man to man.

If it's about manly stuff, then maybe not. If he's wielding a weapon, like the methhead I just met up with, then yes, by all means, kick him in the balls. 

Forget pull up your dukes, put up or shut up. 

Possibly forever.

why don't you go ahead and unpack this one

I got a knife pulled on me in the parking lot of a Shell by guys that were seemingly dealing and tweaking. 

It was weird. I ducked back in my car and got #### thrown at my car by some weird dudes. 

(I did say something -- stupid on my end -- I asked if they were dealing and told them to get out because cops patrolled the area out here like champs)

:shrugs:

My wife still thinks she's 22 at times, and is a huge Stapleton fan.  I went to highschool and was friends with Jared from Kings of Leon so thought it'd be to see them play as well.  We won't do that again, though.

I didn't really even think about it, to be honest. I had drank quite a bit of whiskey, some guy pushes my wife straight to the ground, and I immediately followed it with a swift kick. I briefly contemplated punching him in the back of the head, or maybe the ear, but the kick won out.  I really expected his buddy to come flying after me, too, and was ready to probably get my ### beat by his other two friends, but I think his friend saw him shove her, too. So he was already getting up to figure out wtf just happened.

yea that's understandable, can't fault you for acting on your first impulse there.  the second guy being there also kind of gives you more leeway - if you're not sure whether you'll have to take on two guys it makes sense to try to take the first guy out quickly.  

 
Reminds me of the fighting advice my father gave me almost 40 years ago.  He said any boy growing up non-Irish in South Boston in the '50s had a bulls-eye painted on him, so he learned quickly how to fight.  Kick 'em in the balls was rule #1.

Anybody here ever actually punched/kicked anyone in the nuts during a fistfight?  Anyone ever seen it happen?

I haven't.  I mean aside from a totally unexpected cheap shot, it's pretty difficult to deliver a shot to the sack.

Ha, I actually have once.  Fight in high school.  Not sure if it was intentional or not but it was a square kick.  

Obviously the guy dropped hard.  Everybody yelled, "ooooohhhhhhh!!!!!!!" and the fight ended.  

I still found it stupid and childish.  Not the kick, but the fact that two semi-grown people fought.  Now, that I've seen what can happen if somebody calls the police during one of these fights, I find them even more so stupid and childish.

It comes down to why you're fighting. A couple young whippersnappers fighting because it's Friday and they aren't getting laid? No, you don't junk kick. It's basically a sport.

For us old farts who have some sense, a family, and (for the rest of you) a little cash in the bank, the only reason we'd be fighting would be a possible life or death situation. In those situations, you obviously do whatever you need to do to end this thing so you can go home and have a cold beer and brown dot.

College was an eye-opener for me. Bunch of dudes who could kick ### and couldn't. And it still wasn't enough to learn. I still insisted on getting false fronts because I was pissed about getting mugged. 

Teeth kicked in. 10,000 dollars for a front grill fix. 

#### that. Rarely fight. Walk away.

My karate instructor from my early 20's said that a swift kick to the balls would work if it landed, and if it didn't it would likely lower their hands and expose their eyeballs to your thumbs, which is also an effective way to end a fight.

Poor guy. I could have ripped his eyeball out with a thumb, and almost did. That would have been 20 years.  

I hate fights.  

 
Joe Summer said:
Depends on the situation and your goal. Are you drunk at a party and trying to impress a girl or your buddies? If so, then there are no nut punches allowed.

Have you been randomly accosted while walking down a dark alley? If so, do whatever you can to get out alive.

Joe nails it.  If you are a likes to fight guy and pick a fight, no way you can kick a guy in the junk.  If someone else is the instigator than by all means anything it takes.

Yup. Fights are awful. Avoid at all costs. If you are in a fight, your life is in danger, not to mention your mental health, livelihood, ability to use your limbs, and anything else you may value.

Absolutely. Fights suck, especially over what we're generally fighting over. 

By the way, glad to hear you're doing well. :)

Also, and this seems to be getting overlooked here, your freedom. 

Have seen it happen more than once where a punch lands just right (or wrongly, depending on how you want to look at it) or a guy hits his skull while falling just in the right spot and there's death or substantial bodily disfigurement.  You won the fight but now you're giving some guy like me all your savings to try to keep you out of prison for a long time and, should a miracle occur, a life-altering felony off your record.

Yep.

 
I think it best to first invoke parliamentary procedure to discuss the nuances of the Marquess of Queensbury rules and if so agreed let the nut punching ensue.

That's the dumbest #### I ever heard. Where did you go, Cobra Kai?

No, ##### move...

Just know if you do something like that, you better end it - if not you've just given your opponent every reason to fight dirty as #### (nuts, eye gauging, etc.).

Don't worry your pretty little head, Sally. If I kick you in the nuts, it's over.

 
If you're not using a gun, knife or some ninja weapon it's all on.  Fists, elbows, knees, feet to any and all body parts.  Block with your left arm when he tries that weak #### and then throw a right cross to knock the ####er out

 
Maaaannn..all I know is that in all of the ####### schoolyard fights that I've been in or seen I've never seen a ball shot.  Such a difficult target to hit.  

 
pretty much the 1st thing my dad taught me about fighting.  kick him in the nuts if you get the shot.

 
I tried to use my dad's pepper spray on my brother's balls once and accidentally sprayed it all in his face instead.

 
This past Christmas at a party for family, my uncle who has always tried to start crap with me through out the years.   He has always called me and my wife names and I  just blew him off as being a #### but he was family so you have too tolerate him.  

This Christmas he asks me to help carry in some gifts so I go out to help him.  He then starts throwing haymakers at me, I'm like hey uncle what you doing?  He's like fight me you f in #### y, I tell him I don't fight family, he's continued to throw more punches all the while missing.  I say I'm going in side he tried to wrap me up to take me down.

 So I then bear hug him and throw him down making sure to brace his fall on the way down so he wouldn't get hurt.  He then grabs my hand and tries to bite my thumb off.  I eye gouch him then start punching his face,  cause now I'm mad. That seemed to stop him.

 Apparently while I had him in a bear hug he took a key to my face coming within 1 mm of my eye.  If I would have known this I would have smashed his face in.

 I'm too old and have a bad back not to mention I don't like to fight anymore.  But to keep me and my family safe cause he is quite crazy. I might have to one last time.  Easter should be fun!

Absolutely no balls in this story, Ring.

 
I've never seen anyone in a fight try for a nut shot.  This thread did make me remember the last time I was in a fight.  I crushed a guy's kneecap with a fire extinguisher.  He went down and didn't get up.  So I'll join the "anything goes" crowd.

You have an unusual family.  I would decline attendance at functions were this fellow was expected in attendance and would leave if he showed up unexpectedly.  No need to agree to allow his emotional problems to become your problems.

I agree with you but the problem is he lives in the next Cul-de-sac over from me, there's a concern he will come over with a gun sooner or later.  He has done this in the past to his ex-wife.

Well I don't know your family dynamic, but I would suggest, as a general rule, that kicking someone in the nuts who lives near you , knows where you live, is an aggressor, and may retaliate with a gun is not a good policy.
