There are some situations we often see in a fight. Before starting a fight, people argue. They get angry and start hitting each other. Both persons are involved in this situation.

You are the good guy. You do not want to fight. Sometimes bad guys think that is your weakness. They just want to beat you. The bad guy often grabs the collar of the shirt and throws a punch. If you are in a situation like this, what should you do?
If we break it down, we see two things. First, the attacker grabs the collar of your shirt, and second, he punches you. As soon as he grabs the collar, you grab his hand that grabs your collar. Then you can use your other hand to defend his punch.
Sometimes it happens so fast. The attacker grabs the collar of your shirt and punches you instantly. You do not get a chance to grab his hand and then defend his punch. If you do not get the time to grab his hand first, then don't try to grab his hand. First, protect yourself against the threat that is going to hit you. And in this case, it is his punch.

So, defend his punch first and then grab his hand that holds your collar. Maybe you are wondering why I am telling you to grab his hand. It is because if you do not grab his hand, he can move you here and there easily. When you grab his hand, it would be difficult for him to do that. Now you can punch him, kick his leg and get rid of that.
You can do many things. If you want to lock his hand and apply pressure, you can do that. Or, you can turn his elbow up, move behind him, and grab his elbow. In this way, you can control his body and move him away from there. Sometimes you do not want to get in a fight. In this way, you can get him out of there.
