For streetfighting standing up, MT or Boxing. I disagree with Warchild, I don't think Judo is all that great, but it's better than nothing. For a 1 on 1 nothing comes close to BJJ.
Well, I am a blue belt in BJJ and I am not too bad at it for 1 year+ training. I have trained many martial arts over the years and BJJ is tougher and more gruelling for sure.

Wing chun works if they get that first strike into you eyeball. finger jab to eyes be expectin' it. Krav is a style for people without style >;-) the basics can get the average Joe up running fast with applying themselve 5 days a week 2hr a day.

BJJ is awesome but it takes very much time on the matt. I will put this time in and I'll let you know if I change my mind later.

I contend that we are both an atheist. I just belive in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
