Winning Fights - 12 Proven Principles for Winning on the Street, in the Ring, at Life

Winning Fights is based on principles, not technique. While technique is important, techniques change and evolve. This work focuses on 2,500 years of proven fighting principles originating from Eastern concepts proceeding to the modern era; with updated commentary. Written in an easy to digest manner, it fills a gap by highlighting principle over specific tactics. Winning Fights updates foundational strategy and philosophy that may be lost without this balance in the literature.
