re: After watching numerous fight videos lately, I’m convinced that 99% of men can’t fight.

Well, not really but we have recently started taking taekwondo as a family. Mostly for the kid (self discipline and confidence) but we are enjoying it so far.

I wrestled in High School and considering where I ended up going to school was one of the smartest things I ever did. It teaches you about balance and leverage and those things never really leave you. Even 30+ years later, the muscle memory is still there for certain moves/techniques.

But on the flip side, the most important "martial art" you can learn is verbal judo. If you are smart and prepared you can deescalate most encounters.
