Here's a question: When did Captain America learn martial arts?
I'ts been a while since I've seen TFA, but all I remember is he got into the army, did basic (poorly, given his pre-serum physique), and did that first mission ins secret. After that, he just started doing skirmishes with the howling commandos.
When exactly did he do any martial arts training? They show him being able to take on martial artists like Black Panther.

I assume he picked up basic hand-to-hand combat skills during the events of World War 2. He was at least skilled enough to do battle with Red Skull, although Skull tended to have the advantage without the shield involved.
The real master level stuff would come from SHIELD training inbetween the end of First Avenger when he woke up, and the beginning of The Avengers when he put the new training into practice.
Post-ice, watched fights on youtube.

His fight style was still pretty cluncky in The Avengers. The real pro martial art stuff came in TWS. Pribably he had more time to integrate some MMA training into his regime. His fight against Batrock was pretty badass.

His base fighting was always boxing. Probably added in grappling and ground fighting during his WWII travels.
Anything more complex probably came from widow.

His fighting style in TFA and Avengers is similar basic clobbering.
He obviously got training with SHIELD in between the Avengers and TWS.
cap in the movies primarily has a boxing style/base
which makes sense because 1930s/40s boxing was it. when he's wailing on tony at the end of CW it's boxing combos + shield
CW takes place about 2 years after IM3 according to tony, which takes place 6 months after avengers 1. so assuming cap gets thawed and then thrown into avengers almost immediately, all his "modern" moves (the gymnast flips, choke holds, knees to the body, kicks) all came post-avengers-pre-winter soldier when he was in SHIELD

It got the job done mostly, but was nothing special. Remember the time a Chitauri got him in a headlock?

based cho knew
In addition to what other anons have said, the SSS increased his reflexes as well. You can fake it a lot easier if you're faster, stronger, and more agile than all your opponents.

That's what I figured as well. He also got a lot more agile in general with it.

This is true even in the comics.
Cap mostly fights using boxing, his gymnastics training, wrestling, and judo according to the actual comics and not the handbook that no writer ever uses as reference for anything.
Cap doesn't waste time with "styles" because he's an experienced enough fighter to know that once you learn the mechanics and technical aspects of beating the shit out of someone and mentally remember the fact that there are no rules or low strikes or off-limits hits, then all you really need to do is practice and get experience.
Boxing taught him how to hit people, judo and wrestling taught him about grapples holds and joints, and his gymnastics taught him about shifting his weight and maximizing his usage of momentum.

I think it was mostly that the Avengers didn't really have a fight choreographer with Cap.

Presumably there were time skips here and there. WWII lasted a few years and he didn't LITERALLY teleport from location to location like the movie shows as part of a montage.
Montages are not meant to be literal.
