Being the man in the shiny white armor

"The two things a guy has to experience when growing up are (1) whooping somebody's butt in a fight and (2) getting his butt whooped in a fight."

Lets admit it guys, sometimes we just can't control ourselves. Things start to get out of hand, and the only option remaining is to roll up your sleeves and get ready to fight. I am not promoting fighting, but sometimes it is just necessary to keep our shiny white armor stainless.

How do you tell if a guy is really about to fight:
Guys that get up into each others face and start talking crap are usually the ones who have no intentions of fighting. All they are going to do is stand there and yell out stuff like "come at me, bro" or "try to touch me, mane...and see what happens". The best those guys will do is probably shove each other a bit and then walk away. Now if you ever see a pissed off man walking quietly towards you,  get the heck out of there because he is really about to inflict some punishment.

The three big reasons why a guy will start a fight are:
       1) Shattered ego - There isn't a guy in the world who likes to be proven wrong. Guys like to be right all time. When someone tries to challenge our intelligence, skills, or competition...it's GAME ON! There are no rules, no mercy, and no turning back. Just like the saying "everything is fair in love and war," and all you are trying to do is win.

       2) Disrespectful comment to your family - My family is my legacy. If you're going to insult my legacy, well then I'm about to put an end to yours. Anytime someone says something about your family, you must stand tall and defend yourself. It doesn't matter if what they are saying is right or wrong, you must send the statement that they better think twice before saying another word.

       3) Someone tried to mess with your girl - If you're in a relationship, then your girlfriend become a part of your reputation, and you can not let anyone try to mess with her. PERIOD.

Sometimes there are moments when you're not involved in a fight, but your friend is. As you stand on the sideline and watch what is happening, you notice that your friend is 7 inches shorter and 25 pounds lighter than his opponent.What do you do next? First, you have to ask yourself whether you stand a chance. If you do, you have to jump in and help your brother out. You never want to jump into a fight to help a friend and then end up getting your butt whooped, because people are shooting videos of it and that stuff will make it on to the Internet and possibly Tosh.O. If you don't have a chance, you have to get your Gandhi on, and try to talk the problem out. Another thing that will get you out of this situation is pulling your friend back and yelling out "if i weren't holding him back, you would be knocked out by now." Keep it smooth and don't lose your respect points.
