2. I spar with TKD guys quite oftenβ€”though they're ITF styleβ€”and I have to admit they can be pretty "effective"... I mean, the gear helps and all, but on the street... well... honestly, only a disciplined, composed, and well-trained fighter stands a chance at closing the gap and forcing them into a clinch where they’re actually quite weak... everyone else is just aggressive and overconfident, and they end up going straight to sleepπŸ‘ ...especially those tall, lanky TKD fighters... absolute nightmares, truly dangerous people!!!
3. This response is exactly what I expected, and frankly, the question wasn't really directed at you, just putting it out there in case anyone happens to know anything...

I'm a TKD practitioner myself, standing 6'4"... so, what you're saying is true, it isn't easy for me to get inside that range, especially since I've been in a few street fights before... you can imagine how that turned out for the other guy. Of course, I always try to avoid a fight, but if it comes down to it 😈
