Martial arts

Karate and Shaolin Boxing are probably more or less just as effective as Muay Thai but Muay Thai is practiced by more westerners and LatAms who are better athletes than East Asians. Kung Fu also is more holistic which means it's less suited for training athletes

Lol no. Karate and Shaoline is literal martial arts. ARTS. Not boxing. Karate is not for fighting... Muy Thai, is for fighting. There is no comparison there.

I think martial arts are not really that different from each other it's more about which one is part of the zeitgeist and which one has gifted practicioners interested in the professional scene

Best martial art though is probably collegiate wrestling while the worst is BJJ. Because it's gay. But again there probably isn't that much difference between collegiate wrestling and no-gi judo or something

trvthnvke everyone into BJJ is a homo that's either a roid abusing freak or a sissy bitch

The word art is not about making it artistic dumbass nigga.
When a fantasy book tells you a wizard practices "the dark arts", it' doesn't mean he draws lolicon 'p, it means he knows of obscure dark knowledge or skills.

It literally is. Martial 'arts' was never used in real combat, it's ineffective and absolute shit for real fighting. Deal with it..

I've trained both, and been in countless street fights. Martial arts is and always has been, an art. It's not a fighting style or for self defense, it's absolutely worthless in the street. Your opinion is quite irrelevant to reality. There's a reason you don't see any karate chip chop fags in any real fighting arenas.. and verse a real fighting style like Muy Thai, karate fags get absolutely shit on in about 5 seconds.

Anyone can get their ass kicked. Just because someone hit you with a stick in a third world country doesn't make you a badass. I don't even disagree with you on the karate thing. It's a larp martial arts that is mainly only effective against itself. The only people in MMA who succeed with it are people who are so talented that they would have made any martial arts work. You are just coming off so gay that I have to insult you over the other guy.

Go ask your mom for attention, no need to lash out on the internet because you're a bitch. Fag literally wrote out an entire paragraph trying to insult someone who doesn't give a fuck about beta boy opinions.

Writing 4 short sentences may be a Herculine feat for a Mexican who gets beaten with brooms, but for most literate people it's a few second ordeal. Also, if you didn't care you wouldn't write a post crying to me in response.

The origins of Jiujitsu and other Japanese martial arts stem from actual war. In the event both soldiers were disarmed, they'd need to resort to martial arts to kill and subdue their enemies. When Samurai armor became to sturdy for katana swords to cut, these martial arts became more widespread and refined. Most martial arts that are over 100 years old follow this trend and were made for combat. You getting hung up on the "arts" part of martial arts and not the "martial" part is silly.

Wonder if I should get into judo

Wonder if I should get into judo

No, I made it to a brown belt in judo pretty easily and probably could have been a black belt if I wanted (Belts don't really mean anything, but just saying I've taken part in judo). Judo is like wrestling, where it is more on the sport side of things compared to other martial arts. It's also intensive like wrestling despite not being ideal in combat on its own. The big difference between Judo and Jujitsu (in my opinion) are the presence of throws on your feet. The problem with throws is that unless you have been wrestling or doing judo since you were a child, the odds of you making use of a throw in an MMA situation or a street fight are low. If you can hit some bum on the street with a hip toss, you probably could have also hit him with a jab and a cross. Jujitsu is much more practical. Judo and wrestling are good entry points to martial arts, but only if you have lots of time, are willing to have the shit beaten out of you constantly and realistically are still in highschool or college.

If you don't care about practicality and just want to do it for fun, I will say it's more fun than jujitsu, but you can get fucked up by the throws. Judo practitioners also seemed to be less proficient at ground fighting, so you are more likely to get hurt in locks compared to a jujitsu practitioner.

Never really cared about practicality. I did pretty well on the street on my own without knowing any martial art. It just looks fun, If it makes just a bit better in fights then it's even better

Fair enough. I'd also suggest looking into wrestling (scholastic/non-Olympic) if you are just doing it for fun. Like you said, any martial arts training is better than none. Just make sure you learn how to breakfall as soon as possible in Judo. You can only land on your head so many times before you ruin your day.
