Rough and tumble fighting (Rough-and-tumble) was a form of fighting in rural portions of the United States, primarily in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It was often characterized by the objective of gouging but also included other brutally disfiguring techniques, including biting, and typically took place in order to settle disputes.

  • Rough and Tumble (anglicky „drsný a valivý“), zkráceně také RAT, je hybridní bojové umění z Jižní Afriky založené v 90. letech 20. století pro ozbrojený i neozbrojený boj speciálních jednotek Jihoafrické republiky. Vzhledem k tomu že jde o hybridní systém, čerpá z mnoha jiných bojových umění. K technikám rough and tumble patří běžné údery pěstí, koleny, hlavou, dloubání do očí (podobně jako izraelská Krav maga), ale i chvaty jako strhy, páčení nebo škrcení. RAT má hodnostní systém pásků, stejně jako u japonských bojových umění. (cs)

  • As the new style of fighting evolved, its geographical distribution changed. Leadership quickly passed from the southern seaboard to upcountry counties and the western frontier ... the settlers of western Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee, as well as upland Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia, became especially known for their pugnacity. (en)
  • The emphasis on maximum disfigurement, on severing bodily parts, made this fighting style unique. Amid the general mayhem, however, gouging out an opponent's eye became the sine qua non of rough-and-tumble fighting, much like the knockout punch in modern boxing. The best gougers, of course, were adept at other fighting skills. Some allegedly filed their teeth to bite off an enemy's appendages more efficiently. Still, liberating an eyeball quickly became a fighter's surest route to victory and his most prestigious accomplishment. (en)
  • Around the beginning of the nineteenth century, men sought original labels for their brutal style of fighting. "Rough-and-tumble" or simply "gouging" gradually replaced "boxing" as the name for these contests. (en)
  • Foreign travelers might exaggerate and backwoods storytellers embellish, but the most neglected fact about eye-gouging matches is their actuality. (en)
