Happened to read ur post...it's nice to see (ex) Kyokushin Kai practitioner here...I'm a traditional karate trainer in Penang...I always think that it's like something to be missed that Kyokushin karate no longer exists in Penang...as Kyokushin is one the most practical fight type of Karate...
I agreed that any confrontations at street (or street fight) can cause serious consequences or even lose of life if not handle properly/carefully...
But I just couldn't agree that martial art is just for fun...to me, martial art is to build stronger/healthier body in general...and martial art would be (or should be) very useful/needed when it comes to life-saving situation, not only for ur own life, also included the life of ur loved ones as well as people that need help in a dangerous situation...
All in all, I definetely not encourage ppl to involve in street fight and I myself will try my best to avoid it...However, when it's time to fight (for safety or justice or something worth it), I'd choose to fight relentlessly! And I think this should be the principle of all martial art practinioners...

OSU!
Great to meet you here. As Victor is also a Kyokushin.
I am very lucky to be trained by Late Joe and Late Choe Hong-Choy of Wing Choon; two of penang's good fighters.
They are my idols.
However, I am very hurt and lost when Joe and Choe passed away.... that is when I learn Human is limited and fragile. 年少轻狂的好日子 ;一懂事就结束
As for fighting or defending, after have meet different martial artists in SEA and USA, in my limited view there is no such thing as defending or fighting, there is only determine to KO; however, most people doesnt have the training for doing real KO. and even if one could KO others that often doesnt resolve issue.
So, I advocate to distance myself from violance area and violance people. I am consider lucky to live in a good peacefull place, that I need to thank heaven. and always pray for those who is less fortunate has to live in a not as good area.
Sure, one could take out the other within 3 second if one is train.
Beside praying I really dont know what to do. Praying in a good faith seems to work much better then the KO because I dont have to deal with the consequence after that 3 second.
I see lots of young people here. Well, human is easy to get stir up and influenced. and that is not so good if we stir up fighting.
