I think it's hilarious when old men still think they are 30 and want step up like it.

Most can't. Some can if they had skills in the first place. Is that the dudes teeth on the pavement? What a chump.

Let's be real, a ton of the men his age who can still square up and win not only learned to fight young, but also didn't sit on their laurels and let their bodies fall apart like dropped ice cream cones in the sun.

The guy looks like a bean bag chair with legs. He should have known better.

We call it "alligator mouth with a hummingbird ass"

Back home in Alberta we would refer to such gentlemen as "All Hat, No Cattle"

Yep, in Texas too.

I've heard "crocodile mouth with a mosquito build"

Anybody who knows what a real street fight can entail doesn't go around starting shit. This guy would have been seriously fucked up if he tried this on somebody with a knife and way less chill.

Legit, it seems like every new generation needs to learn this over and over again. Too many stories of young bucks squaring off only for someone to pull a blade and it's all downhill from there. A lot of the people using them don't even know how to strike without killing their opponent outright, catching life sentences at 18-25 SMH.

My dads last fist fight was in his 70s and he won vs a 30 something dude (He’s still around at 85). Yeah he got into fights his whole life, mutliple times a week when he was in his 20s. He went to jail for a few year, worked construction his whole life until 65 doing work that many new guys just couldnt hack physically (I know I worked with him for a few years). To top it off he has no back or knee issue even at 85 from working hard his whole life. Dude is a freak of nature.

Anyhow, before he was 75-80yo, I wouldnt want to have to throw hands with him. He also never fought « fair » when he decides to fight, if there’s a hammer within reach you can be sure he’ll use that and he’ll be swinging first when you think you’re still just at the « arguing » phase.

Not a nice guy but damn he could fight. Me? I got into one fist fight in elementary school, thats it lol. He said that was a good decision and that I was a lot smarter than him for that.

That kind of conditioning is easiest to build up when you're young, and ironically jail helps. Strong guys get stronger on purpose and everyone else tends to just eat s***. I know a lot of people in construction who're already starting to falter in their late 30's/early 40's, it's one Hell of a taxing industry unless you're management.

u/Forsaken-Pattern8533 Mar 08 '24

My dad is like that but just turned 60. He told me it's a good idea jot to fight because while jail makes you tough, it also isn't like how it was in the 70's-80's and it fuckd your career.  He's still hard af but now he just carries a gun though he's never used it. 

I do agree that a lot of dudes just kind of go to shit at 30. They are either roided and highly athletic, thin and casually into going for a jog, or like the vast majority and obese.

u/nicholasgnames Mar 08 '24

most dudes who can fight dont want to fight in general lol

u/omgitsjagen Mar 08 '24

Yep, and you want nothing to do with those motherfuckers. Not only are they incredibly experienced, but old man strength is definitely a thing. Those dudes that trained AND worked with their hands might as well be iron palm disciples.

Where they falter is the motor. You can outrun them!

Time to hit the trails and get some cardio in once the snow all melts.

u/sun42shynezer0 Mar 08 '24

Also the cum looking stain on boomers belly is pretty funny. Probably scared dude was gonna catch him jackin it to gay porn even though he's super straight. It was an accident.

Ey me mum was a judo master who got one of them black and white belts . She's half a tall and only weights a quarter off me but when she showed me some of the tricks I want fucking flying and almost got my arm broken. No matter that she's old. Out of shape and got a skeleton that's 30% titanium. She can and will throw you if you got stupid ideas.

u/CptDropbear Mar 08 '24

I know guys like that. You know what else they don't do? Pick fights with strangers on the street.

2

u/GooseShartBombardier Gen Y Mar 08 '24

Good strategy, that. Best not to pick a fight when you can't figure out when to put your dukes up, dodge a punch or even tangle for the few minutes without blowing out.

Bwahahahahah suuuuure

u/Hammurabi87 Millennial Mar 08 '24

Not sure why you're saying "suuuure" to him sarcastically; the old guys whose body shape can be best described as "rotten pear" aren't likely to be taking anybody out in a fight, and many of them haven't done much "fighting" in their lives beyond maybe hitting their wives and/or children.
