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

A well trained boxer would absolutely not get annihilated by a BJJ guy and I kinda know, I have been training jits for about 12 years and been boxing since I was about 10 years old. It’s all about managing space. If a good boxer can connect with a grappler before he can get a takedown or be able to get some type of standing submission then it’s all she wrote for the BJJ guy. Plus the BJJ guy will not be looking for a takedown in a street fight anyway. We typically train to get off the ground in a street fight, not go to it. Now I will say that our brand of BJJ (I am under Royler Gracie) does focus on self defense first and we do incorporate some stand-up in our training, but putting even a Black Belt level jits guy against a real good boxer is not going to work out very well most of the time for the BJJ guy.
Point being with all of that is to train both.

having not trained BJJ, if this is true, I'd skip both and do wrestling. A boxer that has never wrestled will absolutely get annihilated on the first shot.

Yea ok
because standing up is so preferable to slamming someone’s head on the pavement and all. My gym has 6 black belts and there isn’t a single one who would “fight to stand up” in a street fight. The fact that you’ve been doing BJJ for 12 years, so I’m assuming you’re a black belt, and think we train to stand up and not fight for dominant position and control on the ground is pretty odd. I mean maybe Royler is part of the bullshite artist Rener/Ryron Gracie Combatives “we don’t condone street fights, just RuN aWaY” cabal, but I can’t imagine any reputable BJJ gym focusing on standing up and creating space in self defense situations
