So, why does the USM use something other than boxing if boxing is the end all be all of martial arts? Why do they use something other than karate, or Muay Thai, or any other martial art? Perhaps it's because other countries learn single styles where each fighter has a set of programmed responses that any fighter who is aware of the style can immitate and defend against. Granted, higher belts tend to learn how to implement different moves in different ways and chain them all together themselves, but multiple styles/hybrids open the door to many more strings and combinations. For instance, when I was back in MA I went through a hybrid martial arts camp. We oft competed against single style schools in tournaments... when we would face off against them in katas, they usually beat us (at the lower levels, anyway). But when we went against them in sparring or in grappling (which is the basis of what our Soldiers are learning, because it's fucking nasty techniques and almost everyone knows how to punch or take a punch) or in pugil sticks we destroyed them every time.

Here's an idea:

Don't be a fucking tool and initiate a fight.

You'll always wind up the bigger douchebag for even fighting. Just let it be. If you're that damn insecure about something that you have to raise your fists and start going at it like some kind of fucking moron, then you deserve to get your ass-beat from lack of fighting skills.

Any fight can be avoided. Unless it's like zombies or some shit.

If i see them coming at me(1 or 2 guys) i like to work on one body part so they get a little weak, then do what i do best, beat the living shit out of them relentlessly.

I don't know if any of you watch wrestling, but it helps. For instance, if two come running at me, i do a flapjack or just throw em' up. When they're about a couple inches away from you, kind've bend over so when they're about to hit you you can just use the force they have to your advantage by just kind've throwing them over your shoulders. and when they're on the ground, you now have the advantage. I prefer to beat them until they get tired, mostly punches to the face so they don't even know who they are and then just end with some kind of chokeslam or chokebomb onto the pavement.

Everybody says this to me and its true, if you start a fight with me, you may get a punch in, but I'll make sure you can't walk out in public without a paper bag because your face will be so demented. And in all the fights i've been in, my friends, or the guy's friends, all put together, they've never been able to pull me off of someone.

Strength and size have a lot to do with determining the outcome of a fight.

In a fight between two fighters of similar skill, the fighter with a greater reach and more strength is going to come out on top.

It doesn't matter how "good" you are at whatever style you fight if you aren't strong enough to deliver damaging blows.

Wait, so how does boxing protect you from guys with chairs any more than someone with pretty much any other MA. This post is full of bullshit. If you get attacked my multiple people try running away, because your fucked. If you wanna learn self defense, your best bet is probably Krav Maga, but again, a real fight is different than training.

QFT. Except for the knife part. I'd never carry a knife unless I had a lot of training with it.

I vote on avoiding the avoidable altercations but running various speed drills with your handgun for a situation that can't be avoided.
