Topic	Is BJJ the only traditional marital art that works?

All Traditional Martial Arts work, that's why they're called "Martial Arts", but contrary to movies you cannot beat simple math, or "physics" if you prefer. It doesn't matter how well you're trained, if you're half the size of the guy you're trying your "Martial Arts" on, and he has a semblance of training, he's winning. Someone with longer reach, and who is twice the strength of you, and triple the Grip Strength -- is winning 9/10 times -- that is why Boxing, and almost all martial arts have weight divisions. I used to think this. But then I thought about this real world scenario I was talking about: If some dude, rough around the edges, thuggy, but untrained shows up to a boxing gym or BJJ school (or muay thai, as I was corrected above) wanting to challenge the coach, he will get fucking clowned real bad. If the same dude showed up to challenge a karate or taekwondo main instructor... he'd probably win --- So post. Much gamefaqs. Wow. <cite>The_shibe posted [p:970867454] in Is BJJ the...
