Jiu Jitsu vs Boxing for Self Defense #shorts

Показать описание

Jiu Jitsu vs Boxing, what is the best for Self Defense? Both are great sport and I would recommend training and practicing both for fitness but for self defense I would confidently recommend boxing. In fights, with boxing you could face multiple attackers while jiu jitsu you can focus on dealing with 1 enemy only.

What is the best for self defense? BJJ or Boxing? Let me know 👇

If you have multiple opponents, the best thing to do is to stay on your feet (boxing) and look for a chance to run like hell.

Bit of both is the best, but in a self-defense situation I'd rather have good boxing and a blue belt in BJJ than an black belt and shit boxing. Last thing you want to do is go be mounting a guy and having his buddy start soccer kicking your head. Being able to move effectively with footwork and jab will defuse most self-defense situations without needing to hit a single leg. Especially when there may be more than one aggressor.

I did boxing for one year to learn the basics and now I’m still doing Bjj, one year in. I agree 100% with you

Fully agree. Every martial artist needs to learn both striking and grappling.

Jiu jitsu is a back up plan if you get down to the ground.

Besides the punches, boxing is great for the footwork in a street fight or fighting multiple people.

Both are good because they give you the stamina and the fitness to run away

Judo and boxing as the basis for self defence. Nothing better.

Jocko said it right, you can run away in almost any striking situation. If they grab you, you can't run and you had better know how to grapple. BJJ for self defense is not inverted heel hooks and tirangles (necessarily), it's getting back to your feet if you end up on the floor and getting out of dodge.

Boxing/ Kickboxing has been my first love for 2 decades for self defence..

Another thing no one told me when I was younger and found out the hard way later, is how bad having a messed up tmj/jaw sucks. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I found out after going to the ER with a pulse of 180 thinking I was having a stroke because of how bad my head hurt. After ruling out all neurological issues, the neurosurgeon says, hold on, have you had your jaw checked out? I said no, I've been meaning to though because it has popped a lot after I injured it in a muay thai tournament. He says, well I think we just figured it out.

When you've had injuries to your jaw, it can cause inflammation to spring up almost randomly later on in life. In short, your head swells up. But, there's not really anywhere for this pressure to go, and builds up in your face, head, and neck. It presses on the nerves to these areas and causes all sorts of fun. Stuff like, your ears will ring nonstop while at the same time being so sensitive to loud noises you lose your balance if you're around them. Your eyes can get blurry and also very sensitive to light. You'll have random spasms that will cause your jaw to snap shut where you just have to hope you don't bite your tongue or cheek when it happens. You'll grind your teeth so bad they'll chip or fall out if you don't sleep with a night guard all the time. And, you'll basically have the worst migraines that exist, they just don't go away for weeks or months at a time. There's no real treatment besides medication, physical therapy, orthotics, and surgery if all else fails.

Like I said, it just flat out sucks. Meds help. But, they're also so heavy that you'll sleep twice as much as before and not be productive whenever taking them.

Well said! I absolutely agree. But as a boxer I might be biased. However, managing my distance and fighting against inexperienced fighters (in a street fight) really made it easy to win. But if I’d fight a more experienced boxer than Jiu Jitsu could save my ass. So I guess it also depends on the opponent(s). Good thing that I don’t get into street fights anymore.

I love this channel so much... Tony is a world class athlete but his most important virtue for becoming who he is, is his humility. By being humble he opens himself to learning new things even after achieving so much, motivates me so much to be like him

As a boxing coach/trainer and a US Army Combatives practitioner I believe that the combination of many combat sports is the best tool for self defense. For me the best combination is BJJ and Muay Thai.
