Don't let the Kung Fu you see in the movies fool you. There is a lot more to Kung Fu besides the showy stuff . Especially when it comes to actual fighting.

Silat is pretty useful in a real fight.

I always thought you could really frick someone up if you are really good at judo. Hip throwing someone that charges you would be pretty tight.

Any grappling based fighting style becomes almost useless if there are more than 2 assailants.

Boxing, Judo, Muay Thai are the most useful in a street fight (Outside of Krav Maga and brutal maneuvers that involve small joint manipulation or illegal MMA moves)

Yeah, probably but isn't it mostly about defending against street attacks? Attacks from unskilled assailants? How many kickboxers are going around trying to take your wallet off you or starting shite with you in a bar?


In the heat of the moment, are you going to remember how to throw punches and grapple or which Kata you're supposed to use?

If your dojo/dojang is worth a damn then yes, you can remember.

It doesn't matter which martial arts you use. The key is to strike first, strike hard, and show no mercy.

Jujitsu,and judo would be very hard combo to beat.
Straight wrestling is good too but it’s less about punches and kicks which are helpful in a fight.

Boxing is good too but limited to just hands and many fights end up on the ground, with lots of kicking.

I have wrestling experience and got my arse beat by a boxer once. I was never able to get close enough to get him on the ground. He just boxed me til I dropped

I want to learn the Steven Seagal Aikido where you use a napkin and a cue ball to break someone’s teeth out.

A practical aspect of Judo is being able to quickly put an opponent on the ground while you remain on your feet. Being on the ground versus multiple adversaries is a really bad place to be. Staying on your feet gives you the option of running away!

Yeah, everyone has a kata plan until they get hit in the mouth.

There is no cadence to remove a foot from your arse.

I'm not to keen on mcmap or as I call it mccrap. I got a martial art. It is

"101 ways to strike a man in the balls"

It is the undisputed best unless a weapon is involved. Even then it's pretty good. It also works on trannies.

Depends on if it’s one on one or if there are friends around.

Anything going to the ground will result in you getting a boot to the head.

Judo / jujitsu. As long as you can get close to your opponent and they don’t have a drastic reach advantage over you.

I boxed and wrestled, both can be effective, but both have inherent weaknesses.

I would say that there is no single perfect hand to hand combat style. The best MMA fighters use a combination of 2-3 of styles listed in the OP.
