Mostly just asking out of curiosity, I don’t really have the time or the energy to be going to Judo classes RN.

I have heard some people say Judo actually, and karate, other just traditional boxing.

    Going to take issue with everyone saying run away because it’s 50/50 whether you’re faster than they are, running away can be very dangerous unless they don’t want to chase.

    This would be my list:

    1. Avoid the situation before it happens. Leave before it escalates if you can.
    2. De-escalation.
    3. CCW that you actually regularly train with. Don’t bother with this without the latter.
    4. I’ve heard BJJ is pretty good but from what I understand almost any martial art with a heavy emphasis on light sparring work well. Stay away from anywhere where the sparring feels like a full contact real world fight thought because you’ll get CTE.

      if you aren’t confident that you’re in better shape than they are, you’re just going to have to fight them anyway, except now you’re more tired
