So for further info, if you bite, draw blood however small in quantity gets in your mouth - you can't swallow until you get it washed out hygienically. Hard to do during or even after a fight.... TW

Hell yea!! I have a buddy who got into it with some guy and he took a chunk out of his leg, needless to say no one ever wanted to mess with my friend anymore after that lol. He never got into it with anyone in our part of town again. If people think your crazy no one will mess with you. Then you wont have to fight.shesulsa said:

You are truly a savage, and succinct, woman. I like that.
Spitting, versus swallowing, is certainly preferable. In this context anyway.
Mark, a "universal precautions" class I took said that hepatitis was far easier to contract...simply through skin contact. My assumption is that once on you, you might rub the virus into an open sore, get it in the mouth or eyes, etc. True?
Anybody know how many of those charged with felony assault are AIDS or hepatitis positive? There might be stats somewhere.
I met a guy with the national Health Service who might be able to tell me. They do health screenings of immigrants who get picked up for deportation. He might know of stats on violent offenders...somebody has to be keeping tabs of this in the jails.
A slight historical digression: A Scythian mercenary fighting for the Byzantine Empire once rode out of a beseiged town with his comrades during a sortie. He jumped off his horse, grabbed a wounded Muslim warrior, bit out his throat and drank the blood. He then howled. It broke the spirit of the Muslims, who then fled.

I have always been taught that "anything goes" and that there is not such thing as a dirty fight when one if fighting for their lives. When it comes to streetfighting, well, I would definitely consider that fighting for my life. Biting? It most certainly can get the job done! Look out UFC! They claim to have "no holds barred!"

It comes down to survival tactics. You WILL do what is needed to survive. However, using a bite as a last resort, means we have already dug the eyes, kicked the groin, and struck the throat. If we still can't get rid of this dude then he is most likely on PCP or something similar. This means that the pain receptors are numb, and a bite is another wasted move, right? Don't get me wrong here, I'm not saying a bite is wrong or wasted, cause I'm proud to say that I'm as dirty of a fighter as they come. But I love these worst case scenarios.

I'd bite as a last resort. A possibility (while gross, but hey we're talking about friggin' BITING) might be to bite the arm pit and try for the lymph node (sp?). Since it'd be through clothes you might not get (much) blood on ya but once that lymph node pops they're gonna have a bad time.....even if ya lose the fight. Not that I speak from any personal experience of course....I would never bite :angel

heard this story once from a brown belt, he was at a car wash and this guy just starts talking trash to this brown belt and grabs him, well this brown belt bit him were he loosened his grip and he was finished off. so yes BITE-FU is very effective.
I feel pretty confident to say that if someone has their arm around your neck and you sink your teeth into their flesh they are going to let go. Bites are painful as hell. Even when my cat has bit me playfully it hurts. Imagine someone putting their full jaw force into the meat of your arm. Your first instinct is going to be to get away from that. Sure, it's going to be nasty but it's better than going lights out.

How do you train for it though?

Never heard of training your bite. I figure everyone for the most part is capable of causing some serious damage with a bite if necessary.
Biting in a fight is overrated. Thanks Hollywood. Combative patients often resort to biting. You might get a shock reaction, but the damage will be minimal. At least not for a couple days, when the infection starts.
I've been bitten any number of times. When the situation is resolved, I wash it out (soap and water ONLY. Never ever use alcohol or peroxide on a wound.) dress it, and start a course of antibiotics. Augmentin is the usual first line drug of choice.
Also, avoid punching people in the mouth. I've pulled teeth out of knuckles and let me assure you that you do not want to go through that. Aim for the point of the chin or the philtrum (between the upper lip and the nose). You may hit the mouth accidentally, but this will maximize effectiveness and minimize your own risk.

Unless you get rabies, I guess
There has never been a documented human to human rabies transmission other than organ transplant. The last case was something like 15 years ago. I would not worry about this.
It's more psychological than physical.
Both A and B try to kill each other. A bites B's finger off. While B's finger is on the ground, at that moment, does B think about killing A, or does B think about picking up his broken finger and go to EM and reconnect it before it's too later?
IMO, just thinking about to lose a body part forever can be scared enough to stop a fight. A broken arm/leg can be recovered. A missing finger can be lifetime.
My teacher taught students how to bite in ground game. In one fight, he did bite one of his opponent's fingers off.
The Central Police College in Taiwan has Chinese wrestling class and Judo class. At the end of each semester, both classes will have a joint tournament. Judo guys had a lot of ground skill. Chinese wrestlers didn't train ground skill but biting. In tournament, when a Chinese wrestler bite on a Judo guy, the Judo referee called that illegal move. Both the Judo coach and the Chinese wrestling coach (my teacher) went to the principle office. My teacher said, "We train our police officer to handle criminals. When a criminal controls our police officer on the ground, should our police officer tap out, of should our police officer fight back whatever he can. My teacher won the case.

Beginner level - get a raw pig leg and sink your teeth all the way into the bone.
Intermediate level - test your biting skill against dog and snake.
Advance level - go to a zoo and test your biting skill against tiger and lion.
Woman who has this kind of teeth, man will leave her along.
