MODERATORS
Having punched someone in the nose before, it's way more painful to yourself than you'd think. My knuckles were bruised and then I cried because of all the adrenaline so really, 0/10 would not recommend unless you have a very good reason.
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, or, "Why boxing does more brain damage when they wear gloves."
The only self-defense training that I had emphasized that you smash an assailant's nose with the palm/heel of your hand, in an upward motion from below. Never having practiced, I very much doubt I could execute that move in a real confrontation.
