If you could train only 1 art.

[Deltasaurus]

ok heres the deal.

we are back to the stone ages, no weapons may be used, all fights are one on one.

Which are to you Master?

Muay Thai
Boxing
Krav Margra
Kung Fu
Tkd
BJJ or JJ
Judo
Sambo
etc.......

i say striking wouldnt be optimal because if u fought often ur hands and feet and what not would be destroyed and you couldnt defend yourself as well.

id go with like BJJ or Catch Wrestling, submission grappling


go ahead and lemme know what you think

Look man your question in reality is a rhetoric question!
You have already written the answer, BJJ. But since in the stone ages no kimono was available, then I would say Grappling, which is almost the same but without kimono.

For those who have doubts, check on the net who were the Gracie family but mostly what they showed to the world of MMA.

thats what the ufc proved was wich art was superior, and it was bjj followed by wrestling. if it was up to me i would probally go with archery.

Archery in the stone age?... it would not be called "stone".

[lostcause]

ur right, maybe baseball then so i could pitch.

[BJJ]

That's better, after all a piece of wood and a stone were surely available.

Nice art... "Someone who stirs secretly" or easily "someone who practises Ninjutsu".

Still, without using its weapons, a ninja cannot prevail.

Nice one, Bruce Lee told us all, but once you go on the ground and before or later you DO GO ON THE GROUND, you lose!

like i said though JKD or MT would not be optimal because if you fought often your bones would be mush and broken because of the impact of striking others, why those arts? explain

fights at a bar or whatever rarely if ever go to the ground.....they usually get broken up by the bouncers and/or friends way before that would ever happen....i sometimes work as a bouncer and have done some private security before and am well versed in hapkido (i took tae kwon do, hapkido, and judo throughout high school) so i know i'm not allowed to strike anyone, but when i'm a customer if something happens i want to strike first, strike quick, strike hard!

Because you have never dealt with at least a purple belt BJJ.
One's strikes are totally useless in that case, one may have his own wrist broken before understanding what happened.

Different things if you fight in a bar with people who do not know the meaning of being a martial artist in case, you may find a boxer. Then being good with strikes is important but, try to strike an aikido black belt...

Mr. Mike Tyson never had the chance to meet Helio Gracie, unfortunately!

[irish_2003]

my other reason is i personally don't like to wrestle and i get bored watching bjj on ufc....to me it's boring....but, i'd do my best to avoid those guys if i knew that's what they were trained in

smart move I would say.

regarding the fact that you get bored, it is because you probably never tried yourself. why don't you do it once just to see? you may like it.

Stone age, no weapons.

striker could be good maybe even against a grappler, but day in day out, ur hand will be useless the will be broken

My instructor teaches me Okinawan Goju Ryu. What can you guys tell me about it?

[BJJ]

I tell you I like it very much...

It's a sort of mix between BJJ, Aikido, Judo and of course Karate.
If one's fast enough while standing it can came up with a good match with a BJJ.

What's your belt color?

We haven't really talked about belts. I took ten lessons from a guy in San Diego before I moved to Dallas, and I am now looking for a place to train out here. He taught me a lot of pretty wicked stuff, like gauging eyes out, ripping out tracheas, breaking knees, etc. I was just wondering if this is a good art to stick with. What this guy taught was "American Street Combat," which was how to defend yourself in every day situations like being jumped by a group, attacked with a knife, or bat, and of course 1 on 1 stuff, but when I asked him specifically what style of training I was learning, he said Okinawan Goju Ryu. His dad taught him since he was in grade school, and by the age of 15, he was teaching marines with his dad, which he now does for free.

Kepp going on, it's a good one actually one the the best standing but remember if you go on the ground and deal with someone who knows bjj, you'll be in serious danger.

[BJJ]

I was thinking another good martial art is Sanda (a mix of all except bjj)... you may like it as well.

[banthar]

When people think BJJ or Catch Wrestling, submission grappling thay are thinking with MMA rules. You take out those rules and thay become crap against anyone that knows whats coming.
