And, boxing allows much opportunity for sparring, which in the end is what u would want from martial arts. Sparring gives u opportunity to see what would happen when the opponent is not so passive.

For self defense purposes, any martial arts with takedown moves are good. Just keep on practising till u get better.

At the end of the day, fighting is not to be encouraged. But, when the time comes, even if u are trained, u may not be able to have the courage to practise what u learn.

In Singapore, even in self defense, a fight means both will get charged. And it is no fun sitting in the lock up for 2 weeks while waiting for the charges to be read to u at sub court. No fun at all.
