TKD is a waste of time for anything more that fitness.....Wing Chun Kung Fu and the like meh. Of the Karate styles Kyokyushin is the most hardcore ...the train very hard and do lots of sparring which makes tough fighters, but really in this day and age its not for everyone. Whatever you choose the key is finding the right school. the same style can be taught very differently....and you need to have contact sparring opportunities.

I guess if it became a bit of a wrestle I would naturally look to use those skills but standing toe to toe I would be wishing I spent those years boxing.

Most pub blues start/end in a standing grapple. You dont want to use ANY Jiu Jitsu ground work as you are setting yourself up for a kicking, but boxing and throws from the standing clinch are what I would be looking to work on. All the standing judo throws come from old Japanese Jiujitsu and are also used in Brazilian...ie. harai goshi which is a sweep hip throw...do that onto wooden floor or concrete and its a fight ender. I studied Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and standing throws are very important for self defence.

When I started in martial arts I started in TKD.....fair dinkum it was pyjama poofery at its worst!
