How to Defend Against a Body Slam

  • Facing a larger attacker is a scary thing. One can be so powerful, that he can knock you out with one single punch! Subscribe to my channel : • Video
    He can also pick you up and slam you to the ground. He can have enough power to do A LOT of damage.
    With that said, you need to know how to defend against a body slam just in case someone would want to pull that move on you one day. Better being prepared and know what to do than not having a clue and getting slammed on the concrete by a 250 lbs guy!
    The defense is to bring your hands up and not let your attacker get in. You need to intercept his actions and step in. Explode moving forward!
    If your attacker manages to clinch you, here's what you can do:
    • Neck cranking
    • Use a solid elbow strike
    • Throw knee strikes
    The key element to avoid getting slammed onto the ground is to intercept your attacker's intention to do so. You need to be aware of your attacker's body language and reactions in order to be able to know what is coming.

      But first you have to make sure it's one vs one, unarmed, and no interference
      I forgot one thing, keep the distance away don't get close to him, if you get close to him you must be the first to take initiative to slam him

      I understand there are no rules in street fight but I hate that people go for a slam. Just duke it out, unless the fight is really unfair. But still imo once someone tries to slam me I’m fighting unfair. If someone is throwing hands, i’ll throw hands. Once they getting to grabbing and slamming, I’m fighting dirty asf.

    Best defense is to invite the grapple and break the neck. Non lethal defense, while standing your ground quickly drop to your left or right knee and grab behind the opponents knee while arching back and planting other hand for support, twist towards bent knee while directing the momentum towards the ground which will break the neck

You got to use everything you got to overpower your enemy, isn't that right? It's not a duel of prestige, you might end up beaten hard, and I personally don't want that to happen to me. That's why I am going to strike with all I got.

    Not convinced I'd be going for the strikes at that point. I preferred your fingers in the eyes, neck cranks and knees. Trying to get out to use strikes can fixate you on trying to achieve distance rather than neutralising the attack. I guess if you count elbows and knees as strikes I can agree though.
