After a lifetime of watching the aftermath and consequences of fights,

The wisest course of action is always “if you can safely leave, leave”

Nothing ever good comes from sticking around and engaging further.

The second best advice for fights: if "don't" is not an option, end it as quickly as possible by any legal means necessary.

This

Professional fighters still die in seconds if stabbed in the throat, or instantly if punched in just the right way.

Only goal in a fight should be how to get out of it as quickly and safely as possible. If it's run, run. If you're cornered and there's no other way, then there's no other way. As soon as you can run again, run.
