i box and am thinking about getting ym amateur license

I am thinking of doing martial arts, I just don't know which one to take. I don't want to do Krav Maga because I've heard it's not really even a martial art. Any one have any recommendations?

Got arm bared last night, hyper extended my elbow. Feels good love it, just after getting back from a sprained ac.... Its weird i get frustrated cause i want more training but im injured
Judo and ju-jitsu are pretty fun, taekwondo too.
I've done Judo for 8 years, Ju-jitsu for 5 and taekwondo for 1.
Result of that is fucking weird feet (when i don't wear shoes i stand all the time like pic related, so the skin as a shape), great balance, excellent reflexes, being flexible as shit.

Judo is fun as fuck. Particularly if they do a decent amount of newaza

Boxing and kickboxing here 7 years

Judo and kyokushin karate here.
I recommend trying a few martial arts out, like take a few proof lessons. It's all a personal preference imo, they're all effective and fun

Although avoid those ghetto schools (usually kickboxing/ muay tai) since they'll just try to fuck with you before anything else
preparing for the civil "wars" breh

It's a self-defense combative like M.C.M.A.P or S.C.A.R.S.

Third degree black belt in tang soo do reporting in.
It's a shame I'm 180@5"9 no one even tries to fuck with me anymore.
>tfw your not the small kid who could kick their ass
>now your the big guy who no one messes with.
I used to do kickboxing. It was a lot of fun, and hard as hell. But I've dislocated my shoulder to many times, so I had to quit. Having your shoulder pop out when doing light hooks during sparring fucking sucks. And then you're sore for a month with almost no mobility.
I would try BJJ, if it wasn't for my shitty shoulder.

nice bait

I feel ya senpai. I used to have these random points in my life where I honestly wouldn't mind getting in a fight. No, I'm not some retard who thinks it's a good idea, I'm a pacifist really, but I craved the rush. Alas, all areas I've lived have been way too good for that. Never had a serious confrontation ever.
So now I just started boxing and I can beat on people for a while and get beaten, all in accordance with a gentleman's agreement. Shit's pretty cool.

I'm jealous as fuck. Closest school to me is 2 hours away. If this is an option near you OP then I strongly recommend it
>>37747456
I'm with you OP. I haven't been in a fight since high school, don't see myself getting in to one.
