Best Martial Art for Self Defence

[boxing-cel]

Which one do you guys think is the best for a street fight

Keep in mind, if you pick one don’t assume you’re the best. Assume you have 1-2 years decent experience in any of them, so if you pick MMA for example, you’ll have better Grappling than the Boxer (duh) but you will only have so much striking experience. Conversely, the Boxer or MT guy may be better at Striking but will barely have any grappling if at all.

Personally I’d pick Muay Thai tbh

Idk if going for a takedown in a street is a good idea lol

Might work on a mat, maybe not on concrete or near brick walls or whatever

And having like 6 months of Grappling isn’t a lot, you might very easily fuck up a takedown

high risk, slam him on the ground the dude will be out for sure, also depends on wha take down u go for, would never go for a single leg in street

A double leg could work for sure, and then just bash his face in. But if he has bare minimum TDD and/ or is bigger and stronger and knows what you’re about to do you could be fucked. Whereas if you just try and out jab him and keep range it’s much lower risk.

I will say though, if you have like 3 years of good MMA experience and you’re athletic and have grit it’s GG. Nothing compares.
