I've had 'discussions" with some hooligans a time or two and managed to stay polite and courteous despite the way they comported themselves. Perhaps the way I maintained a distance buffer, but did not try to actually "escape" sunk into their pea-sized brains...
My advice is to simply run over them. Turn your body into a high velocity mass and smash the closest, break what the other uses to stand on and grab things with.
Being a 260# black belt helps ;)
