Best martial art....

[Mick Lyons]

for use in a street fight.
Had an epic pub argument about this recently that almost escalated into spinning roundhouses and figure four leg-locks.
Basically, which martial artist do you NOT want to dance with outside SuperMacs at 3am.
Ladies please note, I mean the dance of death, not the Argentine Tango.
Which I am also lethal at.

 

[JohnJoePo]

Well,
Krav Maga looks like some lethal shit.
Win Chun also looks pretty painful.
Both are designed for close quarters as well.

I'd say Krav Maga personally.

 

[Goats]

Drunken boxing.

 

[Welkin]

Muay Thai, Wrestling or Judo.

Preferably a combo of all 3.

 

[Mick Lyons]

I'm not counting combat 'systems' like krav maga which is a combination of elements of other martial arts.
Also, no weapons allowed so no kendo or Ninjitsu (no can do lol).

 

[Mick Lyons]

Also, the fight is one on one so you can't get the lads to jump your opponent while he is compressing your wind-pipe.

 

[Welkin]

Most of them are useless.

The only benefit of shit like Kung Fu si that it might keep you fit.

Best defense is your legs and I mean to run fast.

 

[Mick Lyons]

Sprinting isn't a martial art jt.

 

[debgor2]

Using a gun is better than any martial arts.

 

[Jimmy the Gent]

I'd go for muay thai as the knees and elbows are so effective at close quarters if your opponent gets too close for punches and kicks.
