How come boxers do so well in streetfights compared to other

>>39296496
Street fights have no rules. People fight with their fists generally and not doing karate or kickboxing, so a trained boxer will do well in a fight against someone who isn't trained but wants to fight with his fists

>>39296496
>why do people trained to punch people do so well in a fight

Good job

several reasons.
For one there are no breaks just because the opponent scores a point.

I think muay thai is better for street fights.

It tough to kick in pants unless you're wearing jnco jeans or some shit so punching makes more sense.

>>39296561
I'm not sure.. in a streetfight there mostly isn't as much kicking, mostly because opponents rush each other and most of the time it's close combat, therefore your fists are way more effective

>>39296581
Which is where clinching comes in handy durr.

Shit like bjj only works when your opponent is trying to do bjj

most fights are over in sub 10 seconds and end up in a arm swinging contest, if you know how to box you can shut it down faster

>>39296594
Rolling on the ground in a real fight is a good way to get kicked in the head by his friends

>>39296496
Boxing involves punching and dodging punches. Generally no one in street fights goes into a frogstand and hits you with a monkey paw.

Fucking wrong lol

I got in a fight at a Halloween party over the weekend (drunk faggot grabbed my fairy wings).

Took him down and wrapped up his neck in literally 10 seconds. I've been to 3 BJJ schools and every single one of them has drilled takedowns pretty tirelessly.

>>39296611
>not having your own friends who also practice

What the fuck are you guys doing

>>39296611
Do you not know what a clinch is? Boxing and muay thai are both effective but muay thai has a far superior clinch.

>>39296496
>bald

>>39296649
>grabbed my fairy wings

>>39296581
But the muay thai has more ''tools'' for close combat, like elbows and head. And the training normaly has more contact than boxe.

Because boxing works and boxers train hard

I box but I've also dabbled in other styles to see what they had to offer. Boxers train hard; when we spar we spar hard.

Karate guys don't train hard; they hardly touch each other because of the "excessive contact" rubbish and in kumite they break once they make contact. Japanese Kyokushin is an exception but in the UK (and probably america) karate is just practiced by betas. I've never met a karate instructor who wasn't full of shit and arrogant when in reality he spends his time sparring white belts and other karate people who don't know how to fight.

Wing Chun guys hardly spar either; they only do that rubbish chi sao shit where they stand still and play pattacake trying to open a line for them to touch their opponent through. They don't spar hard or realistically.


Taekwondo isn't very useful for the street because you can only kick from a certain distance; I've never trained taekwondo so I don't know how hard their contact is but I trained muay thai for a few years and I'm well experienced to know the distance for kicking. When an opponent is too close it falls back to punching for taekwondo; something boxers do better.


I've spent the last 5 years training boxing exclusively and I've made the most martial art gains there; I've learned the most and I've improved the most through boxing. I've been training 9 years in total but it wasn't until I started boxing that it all fell into place and clicked for me.

A while back I took a break after my last boxing match (I won but I had gotten concussion during training that scared me). I had a karate club nearby so I attended a few classes for something different during my break; when it came to kumite I destroyed everyone including my instructors. They couldn't handle the fact some guy with no belt could pick them to pieces so they went funny with me. Their big problem was distance control; I could see everything coming because they didn't get close enough.

>>39296823
>Stop judging others
Who did I judge? I walk into the party and the dude keeps calls me a faggot for being the tooth fairy. He was drunk off his ass and kept messing with my shit.

The bitch PULLED OFF MY WINGS (broke the strap) so I took his stupid ass down and strangled him.

My costume was a joke and I was happy to have people laugh at me for it. This dude took it too far so I fucked him up.

You people are dirt fucking stupid

>>39296649
If that guy had a buddy backing him up while you were trying to grope him on the ground he could just curb stomp you. BJJ may be effective against a single opponent who doesn't know how to strike, but if there is more than one guy yer fucked.

I agree with >>39296769

The laws of nature is that the alpha takes whatever he wants from the betas; the same applies in real life. If you let someone walk all over you they'll take what you got.

I grew up and still live in a really rough area of my city; I got into boxing so I could learn to protect myself and instead I fell in love with the sport. I avoid violence now where I can but if someone was to try and take "mine" it'd get nasty because once you let them tread on you they'll keep doing it.

Any tips for a new boxer?
Started a few months ago and I feel like I'm missing something. I've noticed it's very hard to focus on distance + keeping up your hands + positioning all while trying to throw combos.

>>39296936
>implying you can't get sucker punched in a standup fight either

Try some fag ass grappling and you'd just get kicked in the head by some other guy. Grappling is useless against more than one opponent. Simple. Fucking. Fact.

>>39296991
We're fine as long as you don't fuck with my fairy wings

>>39296909 this.

Boxer here, hopefully going pro in 2 years time.

Boxers don't fuck around.
Majority of boxers are poor and were good at fighting already before they started boxing. Guys like GGG, Duran, Valero , Kovalev and Hopkins were bad motherfuckers before they ever steppes foot into a ring.
Boxing gyms don't suffer from the same McDojos you see with TKD or some of the newer UFC ones. In most boxing gyms you must put in that work or gtfo. When you spar you spar hard and if you show a poor heart you get weeded out really quick.


When it comes to the actual fights, a boxer who has been sparring for a few months will be able to see 90% of punches an untrained fighter tries to throw at them. Also using your hands is the quickest most effective way to end a fight. Kicking is garbage in the street except in very rare cases and grappling is suicide in a street fight.

>>39297006

>omg he touched my costume! I must fight!

Sounds like a good reason brah.

>>39297006
Yeah but if you ARE in a one on one scenario that grappler is going to fuck you in the ass and you couldn't do a thing about it.

>le simple fact :^)

>>39297006
Grappling is useful for the fact that it helps you not get pinned down and end up on the ground.

Boxing doesn't teach that.

>>39297038
lmao, just keep telling yourself the useless shit you've learnt is actually fucking useful

while I can beat the fucking shit out of basically any grappler, fact.

As the other guy said, grappling is fucking suicide in a street fight, or in any fucking fight for that matter.

You try some gay shit on me like a tackle? Ha. I'll just give you a hook that you wont even notice, cause you'll be out. cold.

>>39296952
Stand sideways because it's easier to control distance, watch how fencers move and control distance by standing sideways.

Throw your jab in multiples and you'll control your opponent; if two people are swinging at each other like morons the guy who keeps pumping his jab in the other guys face will break the other guys posture and control him. Throw your jab in doubles and even triples.

A common mistake is for people to step in with their jab; you don't want to do that because it's slow. The further the distance the longer your opponent has to react; you want to get close enough that you only have to flick your jab out. The tiny step you make is for balance and not for closing the distance. This can be accomplished by standing sideways and using your lead foot to measure the distance; if you're standing sideways your lead foot is about the same range as your jab.

But how do you stay in range without being hit? Using head movement, parries and adjusting your posture/weight distribution between forwards and backwards to adjust your range. Keep your hands up so anything they throw can be blocked on your forearms as a last resort; if you're close enough to block it then you're close enough to fire your own jab in multiples to control them and set you up for combinations.


And finally, don't always throw hard. If you throw a hard jab you'll be off balance to throw a hard cross, if you throw a hard cross you'll be off balance to throw a hard hook. You want it nice and smooth; pick your hard shots. Most important is to land and control with light peppering shots. Also you want to be light on your feet; if I'm trying to close the distance to land my shots I'm on the balls of my feet in "react" mode, slowly getting closer but always ready to react to whatever movement my opponent makes either either a slip, a parry or an adjustment of posture to put my head out of range without having to move my feet and lose ground.


JAB IN MULTIPLES.

>>39297043
>Sounds like a good reason brah.


>implying you know the whole story other than the 3 lines of context given

If you really believe there is no reason to fight, you're a moron and should be beaten to death over a parking spot while refusing to defend yourself

>>39297015
To add to this, at the end of the day street fighting is a trashy and wickedly dangerous thing to do and should be your absolute last resort in any situation. The last time I got into a fight in the street rougly 2 years ago, all that happened was the guy pushed me and said "let's go little nigga" and my friends and I just jumped him and took turns kicking his head in in front of the club. I've been in the same position where I think I'm fighting one on one and I end up having to run away from 5 black dudes. Shit serious in the street. I have one friend who is deaf in one ear because of a street fight. Another is serving 3 years in prison for fighting in the street. Don't fuck around /fit/. Stay on your Ps and Qs . the majority of people who speak highly of their glorious street fights have only fought in the schoolyard.

Boxing is useful, but only when it hones the foundation created by muy thai.

At my gym (not boxing, but Muay Thai and BJJ) you do 1 to 1 sessions with head instructor for about 5-10 sessions to learn the fundamentals. You also spar with him (obviously he doesn't go all out on you).

The reason they do it like that is because before they'd just have beginners join the group sessions straight away, but most people would quit because they don't know the techniques (mainly with BJJ) and aren't comfortable with sparring/rolling yet. They also do it like that so experienced fighters don't have to waste their time sparring with a beginner who has no clue what he's doing.

>>39297536
grappling is used by manlets to counter human striking.

>>39296496
because hand strikes are the fastest and most versatile

kicking might be a bad idea because you can get taken down, or the range might be too close

grappling might get you fucked up by their friends

plus years of training as a boxer will give you the quickest and most accurate sucker punches so you can avoid the fight entirely if you want to go full nigger

>>39297550
bruh focus on the things that you CAN do instead of just shelling up. Can you time and predict one or two of those punches based on his body and foot movement? shoot a counter over his arm. If he comes in and you think you can't do shit, focus on maintaining space, use long jabs to the body, circle and try to stay in the center of the ring. Work on your clinch, lean on them so they have to hold you up. I mean yea, you're gonna get tuned up against more experienced fighters, but as long as you can improvise tactically and keep improving your conditioning, you'll get there.

>>39296496
because theres no grappling in street fights

Where i can learn boxing without all the conditioning bullshit? i want to learn to punch better but i don't care about being better at boxing and being able to fight for more than 2 minute

I'm not an MMA fighter and I teach a beginners MMA class. I did a lot of varied training before I settled on grappling as the one thing I like to do most. So, I offer higher level instruction for grappling, while understanding MMA fundamentals.

Our gym I guess you could say is very traditional in that our head coach is a very respected coach in a variety of "traditional styles" like BJJ, Muay Thai. Also a wrestler. We've also produced several MMA champion. I would say our head coach is probably one of the best and most experienced MMA coaches alive, although you may not have heard of him. Our camp currently isn't super active.

>>39297266
Nowhere here were we talking about self-defense. Being an asshole and getting into fights is not self-defense. If you want to "survive" on "the streets" try not being an asshole and maybe getting a gun.

>>39297485
I think BJJ is definitely good to know for self-defense for a variety of reasons. It definitely wouldn't be my first recommendation though for self-defense. The best self-defense classes are actual self-defense classes like our coach teaches, not some isolated martial art.

If I did have to pick one martial art that is common, it would have to be Muay Thai. I've heard a lot of street fight stories from people at my gym, and clinching/knees and elbows seem to be some of the most effective stuff depending on the situation. Teeps are very good to for keeping people away from you.

>>39297607

It depends what you couple it with anon. If you just wrestle and don't practice striking you're going to get your ass beat every time by someone who practices and is talented in striking.

Regardless of that though, try and wrestle against two or more people and you will get your ass killed no matter how good you are.

Being trained in fighting obviously help, often are striking types the ones that are better. Kickboxing, boxing, Muay Thai, shoot fighting, mma etc.

When it comes to street fighting and fighting in this form in general, the first to land a solid punch is generally the victor. It does help if you're trained though.

I agree with you guys that a boxer or any martial artist can get sucker punched or whatever, but I claim that you are much more vulnerable if you're trying to grapple with a guy on the ground than on your feet. You have much greater mobility and ability to evade on your feet than when you're engaged on the ground with another human. It's much easier to run away if you're already on your feet.

Of course grappling can be very effective and so can striking, but if there is more than one person who may be a threat you should avoid going to the ground at all costs.

Honestly if you want to defend yourself get some pepper spray and practice running. Or get a concealed carry permit and put a couple hundred hours in at the range and take some gun self defense courses.

Be aware of your environment and who is in it and avoid fights at all costs, its far too easy to get seriously injured or seriously injure someone and get sued or put in jail.

It's popular and widespread, so very easy to find good trainers compared to most other martial arts.

It also contains about three of the most essential and basic aspects of fighting, punching, blocking and footwork.

These also happen to be the most common ways people fight.

Learn an art with kicking and grappling and you're set brah.

Overall though, if I could get a decent trainer, I'd learn military or civilian sanda, which is uses all the most practical techniques of kung fu and specialises in takedowns, with lots of leg catches.

He's bullshitting. Once a muay thai fighter tires out they literally fall over.

There is hardly any dodging or defensive footwork in muay thai and you just stand and take blows.

Once a kick is caught by a grappler or the muay thai fighter is knocked down, they're in big doo doo

Being able to grapple can help you avoid going to the ground tho. It also helps you get off the ground if a guy mounts you and tries sending you to pound town.

So, aside from boxing... which martial art you think would work best during a street fighting without knives or guns, of course?

>>39303470
MMA

>>39303470
Best for street fighting would be doing two martial arts; one for striking, one for grappling

because boxers know how to land punches which is all you need in a fight, while other martial arts teach you kicking and other stuff that is useless in a real fight

>>39303338
>>39303338
In sparrings? Depends what martial art you're doing.

Basically just hold em till they're out, then let go. Hold on too long and they'll either awake retarded or won't wake up.

>>39296496
Because the type of people who train for boxing are the type of people who bother getting into petty street fights, so statistically they have the advantage over every other martial art since other ones don't get into street fights.

Boxers are super duper fit. They have stamina and endurance. Also they can eat damage for days. Do heavy bag work for more than a couple of minutes and notice your energy levels plummet with each extra second.

Look at UFC fighters. They throw a few lazy swats then hug on the floor for 3 minutes and are gasping for air and sweating like theyre about to die.

Its not how hard you can hit, but how much you can get hit hard. If you can eat one more punch than your opponent, you've won.

because kicks are pointless and if you make it to ground game you've lost already.


legs are for stability, hands are for doing things, thats how humans were built, thats how humans should fight.

>>39303643
because no punches to the back of the head or spine. thats why the shoot works. you could literally dig your fist into the lower spine of the other guy or the base of the neck and end up with manslaughter.

the other thing is distance. the closed space of the ring means grapplers have an edge as the other guy cant escape his advance.

ever notice that when somebody shoots, they get one leg, then the other guy backpedals until the edge of the cage, and only then does the shooter complete a successful takedown?

during that time the other guy could be hitting the shooter's back. but he cant because rules + possible manslaughter/permenant disability charges.

>>39303595
>getting tired on the heavy bag

>>39296598
The main problem with grappling in streetfights is that you can hardly ever know whether/ when your opponent's buddies will show up to start giving you the boot while you are rolling on the ground. If you know how to protect your head to the level of an actual puncher while you get close, they are pretty decent to disable single targets.

Taking someone to the floor is only ever a good idea when it's one on one.

If he has a couple of friends with him it's basically one of the dumbest things you can do, they will fuck you up.

This is why boxing, or kickboxing is the best training for a street fight, punching and kicking someone and staying on your feet is the best training for a real fight. And even more important, you'll learn how to take punches and still go on.

Boxing/kickboxing > everything in real fights

MMA/BJJ for one on one staged fights

>>39303765
Grappling isn't purely ground fighting though. Just watch some of the videos posted. If you're strong, you could just grapple a fella and drop him on his head. Sure you might get charged for GBO, but at least you looked cool.

>>39303806
the whole point of fighting is to learning to handle people bigger and probably stronger than you.

smaller folks dont pick fights with bigger ones.

>>39303792
>>39303792
You do realise MMA isn't a martial art right?

Also, kicking is silly in street fights, too risky. If you're wearing jeans, you probably don't have the mobility to kick properly. If you're not warmed up, you probably don't have the mobility to kick properly. If you fuck the kick up, you can be taken to the ground and fucked easy. If there's multiple guys you can be fucked easy, but then again no matter the martial art (aside from maybe glockjitsu) if there's multiple opponents you're likely gonna lose.

>>39303813

Let me school all you jackie chans:

1: Punching and learning how to take punches is the most important thing, since that is what most real fights consist off

2: you don't take a fight to the floor unless it's only one on one

3: If it's multiple opponents you should run away, if you can't your best bet is to take the first one out that comes at you hard, so the rest might back off. If all of them come at you at the same time you're most likely fucked
4: if somebody has a knife, you fucking run, period, no matter what your bad ass karate or krav maga teacher has taught you, if somebody has a gun, well you're fucked.

they add extra range. more so than what can be accomplished by a straight punch.

but most people dont train hard enough to be able to land a clean one powerful enough to stop the other guy.

if it doesnt knock the other guy out, then theres nothing stopping him from catching it.

its easier to get good at punching than it would be at kicking.

the exception being TKD, since they dont do shit at full strength and thus dont end up sacrificing balance for power.

>>39303932
>look at what most people do in a street fight
Most people suck ass in streetfight because they're untrained idiots. And you're no going to see which sport does mostly that because at full contact you are trained the aim isn't to suck.

the thing about punching is that its reliable. it dosent depend on my mood, or what ground im standing on. its natural. thats why most people resort to it when they dont know any better. because its a natural way to fight.

it sounds like you're a retard who fell for the 2deadly mcdojo meme.

This webm and your point is misleading. Alvarez landed absolutely nothing of note except for long rights to the body. After six rounds it was annoying and Khan went to parry one. Alvarez shot the right over to the head and KOed him.

Nothing in that is beautiful and that "long range hook" was an ugly haymaker. Punching like that is a great way to break your hand.

>and im saying that all you need to do is to learn to throw a decent reliable punch
And what are you going to do when you need more than that/someone else knows more than just a few ok punches.
>or what ground im standing on.
It actually does..
>not everybody in this day and age has the time or energy to learn a billion deadly techniques if all they want to do is defend themselves against untrained retards.
And if they do want to defend themselves they'd be better off not relying on quick fixes and leaning those "bajillion deadly techniques" that would give them more to defend thmselves than one decent punch. And even if all they did was learn boxing it still takes time/energy to learn and get good at.
>thats why most people resort to it when they dont know any better. because its a natural way to fight.
Ir's only "natural" to throw what amounts to shitty ass punches. You still have have to learn how to punch properly and people who know better have taken the time to learn how to learn how to do that.
>it sounds like you're a retard who fell for the 2deadly mcdojo meme.
You're the one saying all you need to be is a low rent One Punch Man and I fell for a meme? And yeah it's real mcdojo to advocate proper training and having well trained techniques and more in your arsenal than a decent punch rather than betting on an on a singular subpar quick fix.

That bouncer surely knew how to wrestle. He had several leg attack feints and a snap undertook before taking the back.

fist flat is the method of punching for the short hook

the long hook should have fist turned

Khabib has to get past Johnson first. I'm worried that he won't survive the initial striking exchange. Khabib needs to take that fucker down and fast.

Has anyone here had some experience with german Ju-Jutsu?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iF1qQNM4o5s
From Wiki:
German ju-jutsu includes atemi, elbow techniques, kicks, knee strikes, throws, ground techniques (taken from judo), various locks, pressure points, and armed techniques, among others, covering all distances. Training includes defense against multiple opponents. Even in the early days, because of the art's mixed origin, practitioners combined strikes and blocks from karate, judo-style throws and grappling techniques, as well as aikido-style joint locks.

ehh it's circumstantial imho. I train boxing and it helped me in fights BUT it was against drunk idiots, 1-2 to the head and it was once they were already pretty close to me. I think if somebody charged at me or tried a take-down, I'd get my ass beat. Also, sucker punch will take you out irregardless how long you've been training.

>>39304332
True... but Johnson Wrestling is no match for khabib... i can not see Johnson not being taking down by Khabib...
I give Johnson 10% Chance of winnig this.
I can see Eddie, Fergunson and Dos Anjos winning Khabib... but not Johnson.

>>39296892
Happened to me man. Was 6'0 and 230lbs at 18 (built fat, pretty chubby though gonna lie), everyone who I ever had an altercation with backed down because they were intimidated, until one time there was a big brawl and I grabbed a kid who was trying to hit my friend, he was like 5'7, dropped me in one punch in front of everyone. Hurt my ego more than it hurt my jaw, I got up right away and he was already running in the opposite direction so I didn't even have a chance to redeem my shame. Met him a couple years later though, actually a pretty nice guy.

>>39296581
Never understood this. I've been in a few fights and 1-2 good strong kicks are way more effective than a few punches. The best time to do it is right at the start where you're both sizing each other up.

Sucker punches, throws and mutual back downs.

Probably not a good boxer then.
Me and my buddy are boxers, he lays dudes out in the street like theres no tomorrow. Im not much of a drunk brawler myself tho.

These guys hate each other or what?

I was inspired by this thread to go out and see if i can join up boxing. I visited a local gym and the guy said sorry amateur boxing is more geared towards young kids up to 17 there's no competition for older guys. (i'm 26)

Oh well, I guess i'll do Judo...

>>39305437
you should've sucker punched him and run away

Finging Greco if you're out of high school is gonna be pretty hard. It's basically just a name for a ruleset and the associated techniques, and doesn't allow (legal) submissions. Looks different from folkstyle and freestyle because you can't attack the legs. Catch and BJJ are a whole different matter. They're submission wrestling styles, with catch tending to emphasize top game and takedowns more than BJJ. The style basically died in the mid century though, what exists now is recreations and modern advancements from along a few limited lineages. It's a lot easier to find quality BJJ than quality catch, unless you happen to live next door to Erik Paulson or something.

This whole thread is the Dunning-Kruger effect in action. Everyone has knowledge of their own martial art and thinks that all other martial arts are not effective.

I see this all the time because I train BJJ and Judo. For as many times as I see a judoka come into a BJJ class and get submitted over and over, I also see a BJJer come into the Judo class and get ragdolled around.

You don't know what you don't know, so you can't have a basis of comparison.

When a guy that comes in to the BJJ class and has done lots of judo, what normally happens is that they keep getting submitted because there is a whole library shoulder, hip and leg endangerments that the judoka hasn't trained, but also has no idea exist.

The same goes backwards, because the bjj folk only drill a half of a dozen takedowns, (typically seoi, o-goshi, ko-soto, kata guruma and sumi-gaeshi) which is decent, but the judoka train 67 different throws. So the judoka know ten times as many takedowns, most of which the bjj guys don't even know are possible, so it is no surprise when they get rag-dolled around. All it takes is for the judoka to figure out which techniques are completely unknown to the bjj guys. Not only do they not know the tech, but they haven't practiced the counters and avoidances for those techniques.

For all the people that say that boxing rules and bjj sucks, you don't realize how many different ways that a bjj guy remove the blood from your head. By the same token, the bjj guy doesn't know how many different ways a boxer can set up an opening to rattle your brane inside your skull against your permission.

The best idea is to practice a striking art, and a takedown art, and a grappling art because they can all win a fight.

>>39296581
>in a streetfight there mostly isn't as much kicking
Because you can only throw kicks if your opponent also throws them right? Dipshit if you can throw a solid kick you have a good advantage over some dipshit who can only throw haymakers

Kicking in an irl fight is a real good way to get your ass handed to you unless you're kicking someone who is already on the ground.

>>39305537
Basic boxing and just practicing grecian wrestling occasionally with a training partner can give you everything you need to end a fight before it even starts.

How many people seriously do other martial arts?

Street fights mostly happen in working class areas and working class areas almost always have boxing gyms

Hahaha sure...
Everyone knows that muay thai + Bjj makes you street fighter god mode

Never been at a rich boys party? Rich boys who are drunk often tries to fight other guys, to show that they are "real men", eventhou their fathers have alot of money.
And what do you do when some "poor" guy try to fight you?

Is 31 too old to start learning a fighting discipline? I recently became fit in the last couple of years after a lifetime of being a slothy pussy (mostly did it for health reasons as I have a couple of small kids now and want to watch them grow)

Now I'd like to learn how to defend myself but I don't even know where to start. I live in a major city and make pretty good money so no issues with finding the right discipline.

>>39304841
That kick in the head on the black guy who was already knocked out was gnaaaarly

>>39307146
It's never too late if you have the commitment. Some places might reject you because you probably won't compete but that should be rare as you'll be paying.
I'd recommend boxing as it'll teach you discipline with all the roadwork and stringent repetitions of drills. But obviously the martial art you choose is up to you

>>39307059
>Ayyy he grabbed my knee, I'll wait for him to make a movement cuz I have sponge's brain

Also, do you even know how hard is to grab a Mt kick? It hurts as hell if you aren't conditioned

>>39307059
>Implying

If said person has trained muay thai then they also have trained leg grabbing scenarios. If you don't know what you're doing expect a real surprise face punch.

>>39307146
Boxing
BJJ
Judo
Muay Thai
Wrestling (majority of types will be good)
Sambo

Ideally pick one for a foundation, and then do another of different type

For example, do boxing (striking type) for a while, then crosstrain in BJJ (grappling type)

>>39307146
It depends on how fucked your body is and which artial mart

I recomend muay thai..

Anyone ever wondered what kind of martial arts Vegeta uses? Saiyan-Fu?

I'm 31 myself and just started Judo. The only time it's gotten weird is when I've had to roll with near-jailbait because I'm a manlet.

I started because I've always wanted to get into a martial art but never had the time, so eventually I figured I had to MAKE the time and it was now or never.

t. tyrone but the rest of us have jobs

Kicking in a street fight is very useful, provided you don't attempt stupid shit. A kick above the waist is akin to a wild haymaker punch, good effect if it hits but easy to counter and telegraphs from a mile away. A short snap kick to the kneecaps works wonders for people too caught up in boxing to pay attention. And of course five toes to the dick drops just about anyone. If you try to kick the head/ body during a street fight you deserve whatever happens to you, which is usually getting caught and fuckslammed into the pavement.
