What's the best self defense/Martial arts to learn

[Emerq]

I'm not gonna lie, lately I've walked out of school doing nothing but walking and this LTN guy shorter than me as I passed him (im 5'10.5 he was like 5'7) he just screamed at me " HEY WHY YOU WALK LIKE A COWBOY WALK NORMALLY" and I just ignored him and kept walking (I walk slowly and normally and was behind him, it never happened in my life)

Then this car as I was on the sidewalk completely away from the street on the highway stopped right at me only to slowly honk at me like in a mocking/harassing/trying to intimidate type of way

I was just wearing some black leather jacket hoodie and a scarf n boots since it's winter

feels like people just wanna fight me for absolutely no reason, what type of self defense is good in general I need some recommendations

also maybe carrying pepper spray, brass knuckles etc ?

i feel like they're illegal but I feel like my life is in complete danger and i'm just trying to exist man

 

[Emerq]

I also had another guy compliment me tho " hey man nice jacket " so that made my day but I'm deadass not trying to get noticed, I just wanna be in a crowd without ppl wanting to fight me for no reason, or completely staring at me

prob wearing a very casual lazy hoodie and sweatpants will do I just traveled so didn't have much

 

[Grievous]

People who do fighting sports past the age of 14 cus they're being bullied are just pussies
No hope for u at that point

Muay Thai and you can beat any bitch in your school

 

[aaronbp]

muay thai, bjj, LL, or just dont focus on one and go to mma classes ( u could also take other classes its not like that)

everyone saying muai thai. I would say wrestling is your best bet. Doesn’t matter how good on the feet someone is if they can’t get control on the ground. Wrestling not gonna win them all though so for striking I would probably say kickboxing or muai thai. If I had to pick one tho I’d pick wrestling. A greco-roman suplex can and will end someone’s life. Many other deadly wrestling moves.

boxing and diy cauliflower ears will make u untouchable

 

[lifefuelforMTN]

Muay thai because you don’t want to go to the floor and end up with other nigga kicking your head

 

[AntiCortisol]

Muay Thai, Wrestling or just boxing.

But me personally when I‘m outside I don’t care if it’s respectable or not if someone tries to beat me up I always have pepper spray or a retractable bat with me

 

[igf]

If ur from the USA get a gun

 

[myosin]

probably wrestling or muay thai

Yeah a lot of ppl are saying muay thai or wrestling im thinking of starting never tried but have some experience w boxing

fs pepper spray is good like people are legit reckless and evil you never know what could happen

Yeah holy shit that is brutal especially in street fights if its a crowd it'd be better to try and flee but ppl would do that unprovoked

 

[Emerq]

cus they're being bullied

I'm pretty underweight (64kg victim weight) but pack a lot of muscle so ppl usually call me skinny

it sucks because I spend hours in the bathroom before going outside trying to do everything in my power to look decent and my thoughts get louder with every negative interaction

might just become a neet and mmacel idk

or maybe peptides would help in gaining something

 

[lifefuelforMTN]

yeah but the best to do is Muay Thai and then do some wrestling to be a complete fighter and know what to do in every situation and use your wrestling to be better in clinch fighting or just to know what to do when you grap other dude. But always try to prevent going to the floor.

 

[LowInhibHTN]

Punching skills are far more important in a street fight then wrestling, if u don't have any previous combat knowledge i don't recommend starting off with mma, for begginers its much better to start with something simpler like boxing, but since u said u got 64kg that feels hopeless so just carry a brass knuckles or roidmaxx to get off of that victim weight

Anything is better than nothing but the top tiers are: Boxing, BJJ, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Kick boxing, MMA. I would say go and do MMA since it balances everything and then after 1-2 years go do whatever specialty you like the most, striking, or grappling

Yes exactly don’t listen to those dumbasses saying it’s not manly not carry around pepper spray, mf you can’t defend yourself against groups or weapons with your bare hands if you really need to. It’s legal to carry around and in Germany where I live you can use it out of self defense.

Tbh boxing will do more than enough most men or boys don’t know how to through a punch so even 6 months of training can do a lot

No hope for u at that point

why past 14 specifically?

 

[Maxillular]

Best martial art is any wrestling/grappling art.

Also. Fight like you would in nature. Teach yourself how to fight dirty (eye gouges, biting, fish hooking, attacking ears, groin) use knives and guns, and combine that with some wrestling +bjj and you're good to go.

 

[jizargo]

MUAY THAI
boxing is cope

DNR nigga - Muay Thai or some shit. If you master any combat sport and continue for a year or longer and 5’10 + you can rape 99% of normies on the street.
