    A lot of the 'for the streets' type styles tend to be much further from reality than the combat sports styles.

    The most honest suggestion I can give you for defending yourself in real life would be to join a boxing club.

    The sport of 8 limbs would serve you much better on the streets.

    Muay Thai teaches you how to punch, elbow, knee and kick an opponent.

    Yeah, but what about if 8 terrorists are holding guns to your head? What about that Muay Thai boy?

    :D

    I'd use ultimate spinning helicopter kick.... up, up, down, left, box, box, x, left, right, box

    Noob. MT clearly hasn't prepared you for da streetz. The correct answer is:

    Ball grab, eye poke, pinch, ball grab, nose bite, eye poke, eye poke, eye poke.

    Sounds like Krav Maga....

    Muay Thai, Boxing, Judo, BJJ, Kyukoshin, or anything that spars full contact will sort you out. In very roughly that order. MMA, if offered, would be great.
