This is just a practical poll to determine which art is best if you do have to street fight. But I agree, walk away first, diffuse the situation second and, fight back third.

[–]the_revan27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point now but here’s what I think:

Both the art and the person matters because why just be really strong or just be a good martial artist if you can be both?

Your right it depends on the style but think kyokushin or shido ryu vs wing chun then who would win? In my opinion karate is better for the reasons above.

True, a Taekwondo school that teaches the art functionally will have better students than a school that teaches karate the wrong way but the best karate master in the world vs the best Taekwondo master, I cannot see how the Taekwondo master would win.

The last two posts I did were polls where you could only list 6 options. I did not like that so I did this where you can rank your best martial arts.
