Jujitsu. Krav Maga. That Russian one + boxing and kick boxing.
Also the bow staff.
I think that'd make you pretty formidable in close quarters. Always ez to get surprised and fucked tho. Winning the initiative roll is important.
Anyway fighting sucks. I'd rather not have 2. Or just be in the strategically superior position and have others do it for me. If necessary. Then I'd feel bad if my minions got hurt cuz I care 2 much.

Ya I agree. I think jiu jitsu and either Russian sambo or American southpaw kickboxing would prepare someone very well for a street fight, assuming it’s one on one. Having an excellent ground game is rather meaningless if you are outnumbered in a fight though. Then it’s all about movement and controlling the distance with striking
I personally loved sparring. Our school was notorious for always winning any state and even bigger multi-state tournaments. We’d occasionally bump into like an all-Hispanic school from New Mexico or an all-Japanese school from I don’t even know where at a muti-state tournament who didn’t know us, but they’d learn
Our instructor was insane. South Korea ex-military, 8th degree black belt. Used to beat us with bamboo, make us put on full sparring gear then wrap ourselves in trash bags and run laps around the park in the summer when it was 110 out. Just crazy shit that parents today would never put up with for their kids
My insteuctor’s son is the half-Asian dude with the hair lip in the photos, was invited to join the USA Tae Kown Do Olympic team because he was so good. I mean good to the point where the entire tournament spectators would walk over and surround his ring in rows and rows of spectators to see his fight. He would unintentionally humiliate his opponent. He was so incredibly fast he would spinning back heel kick their headgear off their head before they even knew the kick was coming. But he at the time was really rebellious and into some bad stuff that I didn’t get all the info about, and he never did take the opportunity
The white kid with me in the pics was always #2 or #1 with me. We were usually in the same weight division and no one stood a chance against us in sparring for state competitions, so we used to have to work out ahead of time who would get gold and silver to avoid an actual physical contest. We used to actually fight each other but it always hurt the friendship, and he was my best friend at the time
