Buy a switch blade The real reason to do martial arts is the comraderie and making friends and challenging yourself etc.

>>77174962guns are illegal here :(>>77174963Not gonna happen anytime soon.>>77174964Also illegal.
>>77174966Stop being a pussy. If your government is like this it’s your moral duty to kill them. The tree of liberty must be watered with blood as one the founders of America said.
Krav Maga probably. It's ruthless
>>77174959Boxing for max utility with minimum effort or distraction>street fights often involve swinging>being able to see punches coming, keep a stable base, protect your chin and face, take hits without panicking or damage, and throw sharp strong punches is OPNot to mention understanding spacing and outfighting will keep you safer from knives, if you're lucky enough to be fighting with enough space to move, like in the streetYou will also want to grapple, for which I would suggest getting rubber knives and drilling with training partners rather than going to judo class etc., because for weapons grappling you need to focus on wrist ties and 2on1s etc. specifically, whereas most of your wrestling/judo class will involve more than thatBoxing and wrestling are the western martial arts going back literally thousands of years, for a reason
>>77174959If you are big and have actual cardio, nothing is stopping you from just swinging or slamming people like an ape. Mainly though you should pick a martial art that you like instead of the "best". You actually win every streetfight though if you just don’t surround yourself around minorities or egocels that can’t handle alcohol. You win when retards kill eachother.

>>77175005I do kickboxing, but I still think it wouldn't do me any good in a street fight. I wear my gloves during training. Afaik there is a good chance of my hands breaking when I try to throw at the head without them
>>77175041So I've never hit anyone bareknuckle, but I think it depends how sloppily you punch during trainingI put effort into deliberately landing with the top two knuckles, and proper wrist alignment, on the bag, mitts and in sparring. For what it's worth I have done mitts barefisted, and also punched through a thick block of ice once for a laugh (had a bruise on my second knuckle for a couple of weeks)I think with gloves and wraps it's easy to get sloppy, and without gloves that will lead to poor shots, landing and spraining the wrist, or landing with the lower knuckles and snapping your metacarpals, or swinging wild and catching the forehead instead of the chin or jaw (because that's fine in gloves)Pick your shots, basically, and train on bag & mitts to land mindfullyAnd if you're still worried, you can also smack pretty hard with an open palm, using pretty much identical punching mechanics - channel power slap
If someone wants to attack you unprovoked, there's a 95% chance he has some buddies around, and they'll gang up on you and fuck you up, possibly for life, no matter what martial arts you know.
>>77174959Do you get drunk and hang out at barsDo you live in the Philippines Are you black and live in low income areaDo you hang out with a lot of roided up closet white guysIf you answered no to these questions then you do not need to know how to fight.
hikikomorijutsuif you stay home they won't come
>>77175056>And if you're still worried, you can also smack pretty hard with an open palm, using pretty much identical punching mechanics - channel power slapOh yeah, I remember reading that in a frederick forsyth novel
>>77175090>frederick forsyth novelBased /fitlit/ posterI remember in one of the John LeCarre novels, a spy gets drunk at a club and elbows another spyAlways struck me as a smart strike to train somebody to do, it's really easy to throw a hard smashing elbow on a bag, and you pretty much don't need any boxing fundamentals for it, just blast itMaybe that's the answer to bareknuckle punching - just elbow the cunt
>>77175098So train muay thai basically?
>>77174964This but with some rapier fencing practice. MMA roided nigroes just can't.
>>77174959Wrestling then Boxing
>>77175104Sure why not, I used to, loved itBox now because my hips are pretty fuckedI think leg kicks and (lead) teeps are undervalued tools for da streetz, but like I said, being able to defend against wild swings and crack the guy with sharp shots will probably win you any fights you're likely to get into, no kicks requiredImmensely hyped for Yuki Yoza vs Haggerty next month, Yoza is my absolute favourite fighter right now
>>77175114>me doing lemon drop shotswhere did you find this video of me
>>77174964>>77175106unironically i fenced for a fair few years and the skills 100% carry over to knife fights. i tried it with some fencing bros and some non fencers with a stick dipped in paint and the fencers stomped the non fencers every time

>>77174959grappling and knife fighting.otherwise get a fucking gun ya dunce.no girly dancing is going to save you when a karambit pierces into your bicep and slices it so deeply your arm is dangling at your side.that's if your lucky and it doesn't just take your head off.always move into the opponent, always.99% of fighting is negated if you literally just move into your opponent, which is why knives beat out.if your opponent has a knife also, it depends on which of you is more delusional than the other.
>>77174964Bro I can jump switch kick you stupid peasant, hands aren't even a factor. Get another hobby I'm 20 years in literally. I'll fight you in a cage with both hands behind my back and I can drop discord.
>>77175494ye
>>77174959Probably a sucker punch I can take it my neck is 20 inches. Uh boxing I'm gonna knock his fucking head off.
>>77174959None in particular. Condition your body, once you have, you find out which style suits you best.
>>77174959Grappling and Jiu Jitsu are trash. It doesn't matter if you can put him in a chokehold, he might have a knife in his pocket that he is going to pull out and stab you with to make you let go.Boxing and kickboxing are better because it's teaching fight psychology, and you should have a crazy set of hands. Also you are more resistant to punches and may be able to dodge a lot more.Muay Thai is probably the best (although I am biased). You have the conditioning and pain tolerance of a boxer but with more weapons. Leg kicks are your friend in a street fight because you can keep your range and most people have no clue how to block. And they really fucking hurt. Some retard thinks he's Cassius Clay, takes a bladed stance, and you chop his leg and run. Simple as it gets. Or teep him. Then run.Most times you are gonna want to run. Not worth getting stabbed or shot. So make sure you aren't heavy and train your explosive leg strength. That way you will sprint faster than most of your assailants unless he's a black guy kek
>>77174959It’s not perfect but I’d say Judo. Judo throws are good when you need to go 100% and take someone out of a fight, and it has grappling releases and pinning techniques for situations that don’t call for such drastic action. Ukemi/breakfalls have possibly saved more lives than fighting techniques. Judo has live resistance and sparring so you know you aren’t getting total bs and judo has a standardized list of techniques so we can actually define what judo is and judge it. In theory judo teaches some striking and weapon stuff as well but in practice not a lot instructors teach it. IMO these are all important traits for a martial art to have, and while a lot of martial arts only have a couple judo has most of them and theoretically all of them. >>77175106>>77175424If you’re going to use a knife for self defense why train with swords and not knives?
>>77175544as impressive as that is, he probably loses 1 IQ point for every flip like that
>>77174959Boxing.
>>77174959Judo. BJJ is for retards who think every fight is an honorable 1v1. You want to win and escape asap. Use the world as your weapon. Judo.>>77175005I've had spiral fractures before from fights. Judo avoids this.>>77175751Yup.>>77175631MT gets an honorable mention. Any MA that teaches strong kicking is going to give you a massive advantage desu for the reasons you wrote. Range is king but its hard to keep if you get a retard charging you.
>>77174966>illegalAssaulting you is illegal too, you have nothing to worry about.
>>77174959Joestar Family secret technique
>>77175041I've heard open hand slaps are better for the head with bareknuckle. Closed fists are supposed to be better for softer areas ie the body
>>77176404Variety of takedowns (Including ones taken from Judo) are more realistic in no-gi bjj / catch / submission wrestling
wrestling. no blow can compare to the power of gravity
The more people will question it the better it is.
>>77174965You’ll stick out. Security or cops will sniff you out quick.
>>77174959judo and wrestling
>>77176411Being illegal isn't going to stop some angry retard.
Muay Thai, Boxing and blue belt level BJJMuay Thai for when you're clinching and giving some awareness/defenses on kicks, but you shouldn't start kicking/kneeing and give your opponent a leg to take you downyou should basically know how to land a few punch combinations to give an opportunity to escape or to dissuade your assailant when he learns you're trained in hand-to-hand combat
>>77174966I understand you have to think about what you say here but if you _really_ think you should be afraid of something, the first thing in your mind is not if something is illegal or not. I guess the only purely legal thing to do in most countries is just to avoid conflict and if conflict arises then just run away. That's about it.

>>77174959Situational awarenessDe-escalationSprint trainingFirearmPepper sprayThis is the complete self-defense kit.Avoid the situation.If you failed to avoid the situation de-escalate with compliance.If compliance doesn't seem to be a gurantee of your safety, run away.If running away is not possible and you are genuinely in fear of your life or grave bodily harm, incapacitate with a firearm.If you are only in fear of lesser harm that doesn't justify lethal force, use pepper spray and run.That's your complete self-defense protocol. If you cannot legally carry a handgun, settle for pepper spray and running away.Martial arts are redundant and given the inherent risk of CTE and other injuries associated with regular sparring necessary to remain competent, have negative expected value for your overall safety. Knives, while lethal, are subpar at actually incapacitating and elimininating the threat, even if the person dies as a result of their injuries.I don't care how lame you think this sounds, life tends to be that way, it's nkt a movie. Martial arts are a risky leisure activity, get over it.
