    Four basic types of fighter which one are you?

    1. tHE CHARGER-rushes full force over and over forcing the opponent to fight or flee.
    2. THE BLOCKER- stays in position and waits to be attacked.
    3.THE BACKWARD RUNNER-retreats everytime you move toward them.\
    4THE ELUSIVE RUNNER-retreatts or moves left/right when you step toward them.

    I used to be a blocker, I'd sit back and wait and chase them at the wrong time. Now I'm more of a charger, it works well so far.

    I tend to be a blocker if you will as i like to wait for for my attacker to act before reacting by either evading, countering or evading and countering.
    but when that doesnt work I like to charge in.
    So I guess i'm alittle of all them

    I would have to say a thinker, as I tend to switch between the four several times in a fight depending on my judging of the opponents skills and power. For instance, I wouldn't want to charge Bob Sapp.

    Need more practice on the thinking part though :D

    I am a charger as much by default as anything else. We tend to spar in very short rounds and having only been training for a short while the others at my level tend to be backwards runners so just so that some punches get thrown I charge.

    I am a bit of everything when up against someone decent, but a cahrger at heart; and if I happen to take a few hits on the way in so be it.

    depends on the guy really. But, all else being equal, CHARGE!! Get in there and get the job done!

    Have to agree with the other how posted this, i'm all four.

    Will fight all 4 till i find the one my opponent deals with least well then use it against them.

    I see it as a game of chess and look to probe defences and exploit weaknesses, not to solely concentrate on my own game.

    I'd like to think I'm completely adaptive - switching between all 4 of the options you've said depending on circumstances. My natural inclanation, and preference is definitely to be a charger. I'm quite tall and I've got lots of reach so I tend to be aggressive :)

    inversely, I'd have to say I'm the loser type.
