Besides running or avoiding attacks intelligently and using mental tricks, what martial arts do you recommend? I was thinking about jiu-jitsu, but I went to some classes and it didn't give me the confidence I need. I was thinking more about striking, like karate or kickboxing, but they say karate is useless on the street

why use martial arts?
>>
I recommend knowing the enemy (Sun Tzu art of war) and the difference between fighting and 'self-defence'
prepare for what happens the most and you'll be prepared for most of what happens

Karate is not useless on the streets but it takes decades to be skilled enough to use it in real combat where the other opponent is using whatever they can.

Now when it comes to self defence you need to gauge your own natural ability (size, strength, weight, stamina) to the opponent.

Firstly and most importantly is stamina. Doing cardio often and actually increasing it will always be at benefit as real fights only last a few minutes at best before someone is KO or out of stamina, so learning to avoid both is best.
this you should learn boxing.
Can learn how to realistically avoid, block and take damage, while increasing stamina and strength.

Then with average people in combat, most fights end up with someone falling on teh floor so you need to learn to defend against that.
Dont fall for the gay MMA meme, getting people in choke holds etc. Its a gay sport.
Judo is more useful in real life situations as you can launch the other person on the floor.

The situation itself is the most important thing though. if you were good at boxing and judo you have bases covered, can KO someone with punches, can defend against being launched etc. Though if you then fought someone who was good at MMA, say BJJ its gonna be a shitty gay fight.

tl:dr
boxing and do swimming.

Boxing or Muay Thai will actually serve you best since they're the closest to actual fighting, unlike BJJ or Judo where you're not actually getting hit in the face.
Grappling has a place, definitely get that jiu jitsu blue belt or maybe look into wrestling, but an arm bar or a RNC will not end a fight as quickly as a well-placed right hook or roundhouse kick can.

No-Fu

Basic philosophy: don't put yourself in situations where you might have to fight

Yeah you're definitely going to have a gi and be able to get into a proper stance for an o goshi in a street fight. Retard.
Japan is having some big fucking problems right now because their police are trained in throwing arts, judo and aikido, and turns out that shit doesn't work if you're a little 5'5" rice eater against a 6' Nigerian causing trouble in Roppongi.
You can call grappling, BJJ and wrestling gay all you want but these fuckers move faster than anyone in faggy pajamas I've seen

If you are a 5.5 manlet going against a 6.7 kick boxing faggot you are not gonna be trying to use judo against him are you retard.
You have clearly never even been in a fight you fucking fag

My police incident and sparring records both say I'd roll your ass, pajama boy.
Judo is useless for street fighting period. By the time you get the right precise little faggy grip on my collar and sleeve to "launch" me I'll have already double-legged you and started pounding your face into the concrete.

Boxing and Judo. Learn to slip, jab, throw a right hook and how to hip throw a dude and you’ll wipe the floor with just about anyone.
