Corporal Hicks said:I seem to notice that when you may be taken by suprise in a street fight everything you have learnt seems to go out of the window and it turns into a mass brawl, for example, I've being doing Kung Fu (Wing Chun) for a while almost a year but I'm not sure if I was thrown into a situation where somebody just ran at me I would be able to successful react and defend myself in a Martial Art response, I'm sure I would just panic and refrain to a sucker punch, how could I stop this and keep my cool?

You will fight the way you train if people train in non-serious environment with out having to work under pressure then it only stands to reason they will be unprepared. I have seen many people that do tippy-tap kumite that swear they can handle themselves in a real situation but when we put on protective gear and go full contact they lose it and get all excited and frustrated when the first blow lands.
Soldiers just dont practice on the firing range and the go off to war they do live fire exercises and so on which have more stress to better prepare them for the real thing.
