How do you win a fist fight?
Roll your body away from a punch to help deflect it. When you get hit, twist your body in the direction your opponent’s punching so you don’t get hit as hard and their fist rolls off your body. Always turn your body away from the hit rather than into it, or else you’ll get hurt more often during the fight.
