The thing is, boxing does involve foot work, the hands and feet go hand in hand

Bad footwork and good hands = useless
Good footwork and bad hands = useless

I did boxing for a couple years before lockdown happened, it defintely taught me discipline for the long run

I’ll have to disagree with you on the self defence aspect, it’s good but not the best, conditioning wise it’s on par with Muay Thai

The best decision in my life was singing up to a boxing gym 2 years ago.


Boxing mogs + is the most popular and highest paid + knocking out someone with a punch looks the coolest

Depends for what, wrestling is the best base for MMA, but for general self defense MMA, I have a hot take that if you need to pick a separate one and MMA doesn't count you should go for a striking art that involves kicks, practice low kicks and you'll fuck an untrained guy in the ass in a street fight, any martial art is better than nothing tho, you're better off knowing something than nothing

UFC is a lot more popular than Boxing now, and social media influencers are to blame for that, the whole sport on media has been ridiculed because of KSI, Logan Paul, Jake Paul etc

The best option is

Striking art + grappling art

I’m a grappler but need to do a striking art

Best option is MMA, just the op was asking to choose one individual art

Boxing and wrestling should be your base
Then you can do kickboxing and BJJ as the cherry on top once you've mastered your wrestling and boxing fundamentals

True, but still boxing has its legacy and culture.

Ngl tho I'm starting to watch UFC it's pretty fucking cool, you also got joe Rogan in it.

The diversity of fighting styles and backgrounds is what makes it really interesting for me.

Like you got khabib that used to wrestle bears from the mountains of Dagestan, you got cholo gangster Nate Diaz, psychopath Jon Jones and promo god Chael sonnen, etc...
So many interesting personalities.

Once you're an intermediate kickboxer adding some taekwondo kicks to your arsenal is very useful and will level up your game
 
8 inches wrists.
This is from real life experience in over a decade of clubbing-you are unlikely to bring down larger framed guy, and real life fights look nothing like MMA sparring.
You better use cold weapons like batons or whatever you get your hands on (bottles, cog, chairs etc) if you find yourself in that situation.
 
I know kickboxing and learning a little muay thai. But I wanna learn Kyokushin Karate since it's effective for striking. I just can't find a place near me that teaches it sadly.
