Just had the one, it was a proper street brawl between about 8 people - I threw one punch (I don't think it even registered) and got punched in the face about four times, I was more in between the seasoned fighters bouncing on my toes trying to look involved.
Haven't put myself in that situation since as it wasn't pleasant although been in a few sticky situations at away games in the past.

Only 2, 1 was when I was 16. One was at the Oasis concert this yr in Milton Keynes. Dirty Manc scum. It was more of a rumble really as it was 2 of us fighting 3 of them. Good fun in the end cos 20 mins later we were all pally.
I'm 25 now and haven't had a ruck for about 18 months. Lost count of all the fights I've been in but I'd guess it's well over 50! Most when I was a teenager but I never really grew out of it. I was nicked after a game at Reading and realised the drinking, my own attitude, and that of the twats I hang around with doing me no good. I'm wouldn't class myself as a reformed character but realise how stupid it all was.
I've taken 1 serious and 1 minor kicking, thankfully both when hammered.

Used to like watching the drunks try and kick the punch-bag-o-meter at the fair. Hopeless. Even better were the headbutters....
I should clarify that my military career accounts for many punch ups - not in the habit of settling too many disputes at work with fists these days - and my sporting career includes playing Rugby for Horsham and Sussex Colts (when I was much younger, obviously) and also being a Hockey player (goalkeeper) - also more than 15 years of various martial arts and the usual "let's do this full contact and see what happens" stupidity. Not too many fights outside of this (ie no hoolie shite, no drunken pub crap either), and only a couple at school, by virtue of being a big skinhead bastard which discouraged all but the idiots from having a pop.
Violence really solves very little.

With an attitude like that I think you may have made some poor career choices.

Never been in a fist fight. I fight dirty, or just do my fabled Road Runner impression.

duffed a couple of people up in my mid teens (they we're asking for it)
got moderately tuned up twice in my early 20s in Leeds, mouthing off at the locals is not best advised
returned to form in my mid 20s giving a dickhead in Bedford a fully justified right royal pasting (policman's comments 'jesus, which one of you is Bruce Lee')
a mixed career and one I am glad to have put behind me

Hm - I used to like Bedford. The locals can be amusing.....

Big fat zero.
Have only swung at anyone once in my life, and that was my best mate, and I was hideously drunk. Why I did it I don't know. The punch was smothered though and I didn't actually connect with him.
