On the other hand, in an open space, you can box multiple opponents (2-3 max, if your very very lucky) but you can only ever grapple one person at a time.

Krav Maga was a blend of martial arts techniques developed for last resort use by captured civilians and guerillas. Defendu was the system for the SOE combat practitioners. The truth of any martial art is that it's like being a musician. Yes, there are classical schools, and technical systems, but the real players are individuals with their own style. Study everything.

My main art, my base is Muay Thai, which incorporates sparring, devastating strikes but also a lot of grappling which makes it really a really good choice and a perfect stand-alone complete martial art to invest in it, for using it -if ever needed in self-defense situations. But jujitsu can help us to complete our main art, whatever this is, and transform it to another level, as it fits perfectly everywhere and has no real form, it takes form depending on the situation, so it is a valuable tool to confront everything. 🙏

​@@TheLateScottBaio The art of Muay Thai of "now" in comparison to "The Siam Kingdom" Era, is a completely different martial art after it has evolved so much by then, as I have covered this in my Documentary, Muay Thai - The Arts of MMA. As modern jiujitsu has nothing to do with samurai jiujutsu. But here you are talking about an invasion which is an armed conflict, which is another thing. Muay Thai or BJJ or etc is just only a tool in a multi-factor, highly tactic "game". During my service, I've realized that the best weapon is the "team", as a special forces' squad, moving as one, breathing as one, acting as one, the perfect combination and execution of the plan under pressure, and not action-movie jumps kicks and "cinematic" heroism. And there were guys less proficient in "martial arts" that could decapitate someone in seconds with a knife out of pure killer instinct. When it comes to war, sometimes it doesn't matter how good or badass you are, you and your whole squad, or the entire army loses and has casualties as in every conflict in human history.

My old Kenpo instructor... who started in his early 20's and is now in his 60's and a 10th degree black belt... always encouraged us to go learn some jujitsu or something similar and incorporate it into our Kenpo. His logic is he recognized that the one weakness of kenpo was a lack of ground game, and he believed it couldn't hurt us and only help us if only to get a different perspective.

Just find what you love!!!! If you enjoy the process, you’ll succeed. Of course, having two different arts combined is great! Boxing and Jiu-Jitsu for me)

I did both karate and jiu jitsu and in our karate dojo to get from brown to black belt we were required to learn jiu jitsu takedowns and submissions which was a huge benefit for me because when I became a brown belt in karate I was also a purple belt in jiu jitsu so everything we were being taught i already knew.

Karate's grappling is borrowed from the Judo (technically Jiu Jitsu) of the occupying samurai of Okinawa. They're nigh identical. Learning Judo or BJJ is like going more in-depth in karate's grappling.

I believe that when the person claimed to be a traditional karate practicer, he means that he practices something closer to the original Okinawa karate, which was based in self defense and included grappling and the use of weapons, opposed to the sportified version of karate which is widely practiced around the globe as a form of sports, competition and recreation.

I was raised in the rural Appalachian Mountains during the 70s and 80s. When I was growing up disputes were settled by fist fights. No one had access to martial arts training but what they did have access to was wrestling in high school. I can tell you that without a doubt the guys who were on the wrestling team for four years were not to be messed with. They would destroy guys who thought they were tough. It's just a fact that someone who is trained in grappling can hurt you.

Don I agree with you in attitude but certainly not belief since none of what you mention is Martial Art(s). Bruce Lee has everyone thinking they are an Martial Artists bc they practice self defense. There is only one Martial Art and Bruce Lee was banned from learning it. His whole complaint was that what he knew was not enough. (wing chun "Beautiful Springtime") You cannot say that about Martial Arts. The only thing I have heard anyone say when coming to Gung-fu is "they will never take anything else". (I learned Gung-fu in East Cleveland Ohio 1st generation and before that Chinese Kenpo with the Stracy's and Shaolin with James Cook) afterwards coming to California; judo Roy Bushudo, aikido June Mateo, more king-fu My Jong longhorn w Peter Wong, Tai Chi Chuan (2 original forms of Kings and Jung) with rick Peterson, and can showed them all how it came from gung-fu) And while karate training and kung-fu training will condition your body, its effect is not meant to be long lasting. And that is bc what Martial arts does is build Chi (rapidly) which comes from zen which is incorporated into the forms to do it coupled with weaponry training. (lotus sutra) Karate (barr none) and kung-fu cannot do this even if you practiced it 100 years. BTW us what happened in Shaolin originally before they discovered Gung-fu. They practiced Chinese Boxing for 2300 years or more. But took 7 years to develop Gung-fu with Buddha's help but he never learned it just provided the text (3) and helped the monks getting healthy. As a rule the name of the art form tells you where it is from. Judo is a sport (considered in Japan) like taekwondo is in Korea. Muy tai actually descends out of tai boxing so neither of these are Martial Arts bc they do not produce chi. The use of chi in Martial Arts is for breaking bones, maiming and taking life. This is why they do not condone it being shown. And yet you learn it you know it you show it. The idea is if you see Martial Arts it will kill you in battle. True Martial Arts from Central Shaolin (before it was Northern) is now Southern China PaQua kuntao style. There is no comparison!

As an analytic person I like to separate terms rather than conflating all kinds of things into a single term. As such, the quality of a martial art should be defined by how much it increases your chances to defend yourself, period. Don't mix all kinds of criteria into it. If you want a strong mind, body, spirit you can as well run or dance or meditate. If you want to get more flexible, you can just stretch or dance. That's not what separates a good from a bad MA because it doesn't have anything to do with MA. Apart from that it's usually not the martial art itself who makes an a-hole of a person but, if anything at all, the people you're training with.

It is all relative, dependent on the situation. My experience is this.......1 v 1 grappler vs striker (similar ability is respective art) = wrestler has advantage. 1 v 1 experienced striker or experienced grappler vs non trained individual = Doesn't matter, both effective. 1 vs multiple opponents= striker has advantage over grappler (better footwork to line up opponents and deal with one at a time, may not KO all of them but who says you need a KO to deter or neutralise someone. Loads of videos online of strikers KO'ing 3,4 even 5 opponents in a short space of time, never seen a grappler put multiple opponents to sleep within 10-15 seconds.

The reality is that every martial art is a tool that has functionality and applications that work best in certain situations. A hammer, screw driver and knife will be able to be utilized in different ways but effectiveness comes down to the quality of the tool and knowledge of how to apply it. Having a comprehensive knowledge gives you broad spectrum of skills and how to apply them. This is how you find out your own style and become formless as Bruce Lee spoke of. A painting is not defined by a single color so why should your own form of self expression through martial arts. Let me know if you see it it different 🤝🏻👍🏻

Judo is very underrated for self defense in a street fight. BJJ is incredible and 1 on 1 you will absolutely annihilate someone trying to hurt you with no experience, but judo allows you to defensively throw someone HARD on very hard surfaces while not putting yourself on the ground (or risking yourself slamming to the ground) which in a street fight is very relevant. If it's in a street fight there's rocks, glass, metal, concrete, weapons, people kicking (potentially), animals, etc. that are all major problems. That said, if you have spent time like jocko learning BJJ and spending time studying martial arts, probably 99.9% of the people you encounter that is not a war situation (drunk, criminals, just general jerks) you're going to destroy them lol.

Big issues with many self defence systems like Krav is that they bank on you facing someone who a) isn’t anticipating your attack b) doesn’t know how to fight Go do martial sports and build your foundation of grappling and striking SKILLS, and develop physical CAPABILITIES. Then do Krav Maga and etc to add some spicy groin kicks to your toolbox. No point knowing groin kicks if something as simple as their stance offsets your entire game.

@Hamasvard_University

Yes, I agree. I just started learning unarmed combat. I am doing : Krav Maga + Muy Thai

Pretty interesting. I have often heared that you should end a street fight quickly (maybe with a preventive strike) and that you should never go to the ground, because one idiot often doesn´t come alone, so while you put the "attacker" to the ground, another guy (maybe a friend of the attacker) kicks you to the head. Beside that I agree with what he said about Jiu Jutsu.

I’ve done the fighting and gone to the gyms, folk style, freestyle, Roman Greco, jiu jitsu and knowing how to throw a punch and some kicks for the stand up game are truly effective. Occasionally you still get rocked it is what it is, jiu jitsu beats wrestling all things equal but if I’m a better wrestler then you are at jiu jitsu wrestling wins, if we’re equal grapplers the one with the better standup game wins. There are plenty of freaks out there that can wreck your life with muy tai or whatever, but those guys know take down defense as well. My conclusion is (take it as you may, I’m a key board warrior after all) a grappling background is always key. This is from a 26 year old definitely out of shape fighter/ wrestler that got out of the game.

well rounded in my opinion . my strength and aggression and my punch kept me from getting bullied but also got me in trouble before. I’m missing practicing with some tough guys right now . and I couldn’t practice everyday because unlike now I was working the loading dock forty a week. so I’m just constantly trying to do something even if I’m posting crazy comments . haha

For me the main objective in self defense is having a high takedown defense to try to stop someone smashing my bones and brain in hard concrete. So, wrestling/jiujitsu BUT being strong, explosive and muscular first by working out. Because this is the most devastating thing that commonly occurs in a fight. Sadly, weight matters, a lot. Secondly, try to be hard so be knocked out and, again, smash my brain on hard concrete in my fall to the ground. So boxing is crucial aswell.

Love it. I've been training in Taekwondo for 2 years with my boys. We train in some basic self defense moves. If someone is punching at your face what do you do sort of thing. Any martial art should teach you to defend yourself and get distance from your attacker. Don't get hit don't get put on the floor. My association of Taekwondo does have some Gracie Jujitsu instructors but none close to me. Either way my boys don't like to spar but I push them to learn what it's like to get kicked or punch and defend yourself. I live in a rural area and take what I can get some day I'd love to train in a different martial art.

Awesome ❤

I took up judo almost 15 years ago as a means to learn self-defence, after I got assaulted by two men. At the time, I was clinically obese and unhealthy. What I found through judo though was not self-defence, but good health, a new found passion for health, fitness and judo (as well as martial arts), and lifelong friends. I received my first degree blackbelt (Shodan) in judo last year, and have been coaching children, teenagers and adults for six years now. I honestly do not know if judo can be effectively used for self-defence. I took up judo to learn self-defence, but in the last 15 years, I have never found myself in a situation of violence. I do know that a lot of judo clubs claim that they offer "self-defence" as a selling point to their club, but the truth is, they often don't. Judo is usually taught as a sport, with rules, and they teach their techniques within the boundaries of the sport. If a judo club was to actually offer self-defence, I believe they should have a curriculum catered to self-defence, as well as independent training sessions in the week that are catered to self-defence. I think judo is a good martial art, though. Judo is, like Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) and mixed martial arts (MMA), a competitive combat sport, so there is a lot of training that goes toward cardiovascular conditioning, as well as sparring (or in judo, 'randori', which means free practice). Grappling with another human-being who is trying to throw you, while you are trying to throw them, and neither one of you wants to be thrown, is quite challenging, whether it's tachi-waza (standing techniques) and/or ne-waza (groundwork). So, it's not quite 'real fighting' but I think it is a realistic application of grappling and wrestling with another human-being who is in a sense, trying to cause 'harm' to you (in a training environment, your training partner(s) won't or shouldn't be trying to 'hurt' you, but would be at least trying to be successful with their techniques against you). I do believe judo offers some incredibly practical skills for self-defence, though. Skills such as ukemi (translating to 'receiving of body'), basically breakfalls, learning how to fall over without harm, and/or learning how to be taken to the ground and minimizing as much damage as possible. I also believe that judo's ne-waza is quite explosive, and could be handy to help someone learn how to escape a ground situation and return to standing (to run away, or something). Admittingly, I should probably learn a proper striking art, like boxing, but I have tried to look into local boxing clubs and find that they generally operate on the same nights I am at judo, and I can't do that, because I am also a judo coach... but I guess in fairness, I have been lucky that these past 15 years, I have never been involved in a physical, violent confrontation. Part of self-defence is, in my opinion, awareness. Things such as where not to go, locations of exit(s) and an escape route, obstacles toward an exit, people who might be able to help (security, police, friends), as well as people in general... paying attention to their body language, tone of voice, choice of dialog, distance between you and them, if they have friends nearby etc.

All I can picture is seeing Jocko on the line in football, waiting for the snap. Staring him down face-to-face, realizing the whole plan was to throw punches. You’ve got a few feet and a few punches then you’re on the ground anyway. What if you get nervous/intimidated last moment? What if he’s already within striking distance? Shorter, taller, etc.? Put it into practice, and test your plan! Sure going full speed with karate kicks will wear down someone in practice, and cause injuries, but don’t let it be the only plan or rely on it being 100% successful, 100% of the time.

I agree just about, except can the striker have good takedown defence as well even if he's not good once on the ground becuase if you know the guys gonna shoot on you it can be an advantage to be ready and quick to adjust, pivot etc. On avarage it does seem without a rounded game the grappler will have an advantage as long as he knows how to protect his head forehead and top you can take, temple, jaw and ear etc you may not have all your marbles with you once you do close the distance and even a 1 dimensional fighter may out wrestle you if you've got shaken heavily on the way in. I guess the averages favour the ground guy but its very dependent on individuals calibre

@5:31 “we’re worried about the next 42 seconds of a fight that’s about to happen, not the next three decades of my life where you can see me break down” Jocko summed it up there in terms of the traditional martial arts & MMA competition training methodology and mindset; which is why he didn’t think much about football players getting bashed in the head constantly and potentially get CTE. The other major difference between traditional martial arts & mma (in the context of competing) is that traditional martial arts to their credit also have an emphasis on long term health & longevity (even if there is varying degree of scientific validity) where as mma competition fighters training only concerns themselves with the immediate upcoming fight so which is why it is more common to see traditional martial artist who even in their old age still able to perform where as most of the first generation MMA fighters like the OG football players before them all suffer from traumatic brain injury and are wheelchair ridden or worse. Actually, forget MMA, even in boxing (which is a major fight style MMA fighters love to mix into their MMA), Muhammed Ali towards the latter end of his life wasn’t entirely there.

Im a Black Belt jiu Jitsu and karate. Ive done some intense years of kick boxing... And I think the best martial art is a combination of striking and ground game. Toi should be good standing and good on the ground too

Short-sighted perspective. I served in Recon. Trained in whats now known as MMA since I was 5. I love BJJ. Rolling is a lot like Chi Sao. I like the UFC especially 1&2. Jocko, wake up to the fact that BJJ doesn't actively guard against punches on the ground (excluding combat BJJ). Most BJJ fighters are totally obvious to how exposed they are to strikes while rolling. A huge amount of situations in BJJ are absolutely a death sentence in a real fight. Even UFC style MMA isn't that impressive considering there is over 27 rules on attacks you cant perform in the octagon. You fight as you train? Yes, I do believe I've heard that somewhere. And all of those 27 violations are things you should be doing as a primary in a real time situation. They make the difference between who lives and who dies. Jocko, how about grappling in a bar? Or on the streets when your head hits a pole or a curb? Its over, nice going BJJ. Also, when in real life are you fighting against just one person? Oh, good idea... lets roll on the ground while his buddies just honorably watch and let two men battle it out. In combat you stay away from grappling. Period! A lot of what you are saying is great for the ring but not great for a world without tap out’s and ref’s. The ring is not combat and you know better, Team Guy. You are so in love with BJJ and the ring that you have lost sight of reality. War doesn't happen on a nice mat or ring. BJJ is great... but its a sport. A sport with limitations. Those limitations in a very simple way will be used against you. Keep that in mind.

"One answer is not the answer!" 😎👌

Jocko for President. Make it happen Willink!

Striking can lead to double leg and single leg takedowns but I agree grappler seem to have an advantage as always though it's great to be well-rounded

It depends on the situation, and your capabilities. I think most people, both trained and untrained, can throw a decent jab and cross. But take kicking for example. Kicking is out of the question if you aren't training for them. Maybe it's just me, but kicking always felt super unnatural to me. But if you are good at kicking, you might as well use it. Know what you're good at, and what you're bad at. As someone who has always been fascinated by martial arts, I can't say I've trained for self-defense, since I do it for fun. But I think that's the majority of the Martial arts community. It's either for fun, of for sport and competition. Actual self-defense training should probably consist of learning how to not be at the wrong place at the wrong time, and be relatively street smart.

He says... Learn how to shoot a gun... gold.

This is so true. Kajukenbo has echoed these views for decades.

Put it like this all striking and grappling is a form of martial arts and the more mix of martial arts the better. All styles mixed together you can come up with your own style. I just started jujitsu (love it) but I'm glad I did boxing first. while I could take the boxer me for a hell of a bad time on the ground already I feel like in a street fight it's better to know boxing because how many fights are really one-on-one in the street? Not all. Jiu jitsu in a street fight you're going to get stomped in the head if multiple attackers, so I think the distance and footwork management of boxing is elite when it comes to protecting yourself in the street. Striking and grappling as a combination is the best sense of confidence and self-defense ability in my opinion.

I did some boxing and got a blue ear, did some wing chung but not enough, now I do whisky and painting, its not that bad.

Karate having no grappling or take down defence depends on the karate cause "traditional" people think of as not evolved its not a sport but traditional karate is better than sport karate it has full contact in some and a lot more than just your karate kicks. Karate originally had tegumi okinawan wrestling in its creation and then after the Japan transition started to implement judo through the creators of shotokan and judo. The idea of long term damage for self defence is negligible but striking in self defence is effective I don't know how many high level jiu jitsu guys you're gonna have to defend against pulling guard on you in the streets but if you think a good traditional martial art can't handle an unexperienced fighter that's insane. As for jiu jitsu sure it gives you good control but what happens when there's multiple attackers. It's got nothing. You say self defence jiu jitsu getting distance but can they really move out of distance better than someone who trains striking footwork or standing footwork a karateka who knows their speed a teakwondo guy who can jump back, fillipino Chinese whatever arts . Traditional martial arts have plenty of takedowns and defence karate is not all of them. There have been grappling arts as long as there have been striking and they came to blows and merged and learned from each other there are traditional grappling arts. Sure if you go into a sports match against a grappler and you don't train a grappling sport you lose but if you know grappling enough to stay standing or get back up or get a dominant position and you know the right striking then you can defeat someone in that position

@ 03:00 depends where u hit the person , at football they don't get hit hundred of times in the chin for example . Chin which is a very sensitive point for everyone , doesn't matter how big or about training ! Learning martial arts are pressure points that you get to know , and if those are hit is game over for anyone !

Mmmmm - I agree kinda. But if you attack the limbs and no gloves and no rules?

Masvidal vs Askren is one UFC example.

Jocko is correct in that it is hard to knock someone out with a hit to the head. Professional boxers that have demonstrated the ability to knock an opponent out with one well landed punch, like Mike Tyson or Thomas Hearns to name a couple, is considered a high achievement, a highly developed skill in professional boxing. That is why they are referred to as “knockout artists”. Also their ability is so highly developed that they can not only choose their timing for a knockout but they land the knockout punch right where it will do the most damage with the intended results, and if you watch carefully you’ll see that most knockout punches land in the face or on the jaw or square on the chin. Hooks to the temple can achieve dramatic knockouts. But if you watch in professional boxing, and lets admit that professional boxers are quite possibly the most effective punchers, many boxers receive very hard punches to the head (cranium) and continue to fight. As Tyson said many times “Everyone has a plan until they get hit in the face.” Notice he didn’t say head.

So many strikers are developing excellent take down defense and grapplers are becoming strikers as well.

It is not about the martial art, it is about the martial artist.
