The first rule of fighting: There are no rules in fighting.
Learning in a dojo or ring teaches you too many rules, for obvious reasons. What they can't teach is the mindset to win. You have to gain that from experience. At that point it's less about what you've learned, and more of the intensity brought to the fight.
I fight to maim someone. The point is for that person to never confront me again. Ear-biting, eye-gouging, groin strikes aren't commonly taught in the dojo. You also can't show someone how to use a broken bottle in a training environment. These are techniques you have to go over in your head a million times, as not to forgot when the adrenaline starts pumping. The more you think about it the more chance you'll have of success.
In the end though it goes like this: No girl is going to fuck you when you walk into the bar with two black eyes, a crooked nose, and swollen lips. Avoid fighting at all costs.
