It depends on the fighter. Personally I do just fine for myself with the Judo, Hapkido, Tang Soo Do and Boxing that I've learned. I'm very fast, strong but not very big(6' 175lbs) so I try to avoid ground fights that last very long. Its all about what works for you. I'm exceedingly good at punching with power and accuracy as well as using rushing movements of others against them. I'm also really good at chokes so I try to use those strengths immediately in any fights I've been in.


You can't base your opinion of martial arts on a few isolated incidents or UFC bouts because that was what was best for the given situation.

Learn a little bit of everything but most importantly you should piece together your own mechanisms that work best for you.
