I would suggest that wrestling is the best sports martial art for self defense And that it does not give you a concussion
It is important to take people down to the ground and then switch opponents once someone is down if defending against multiple attackers using wrestling
If you hold someone in place other people can just attack you
Basicly you have to push or trip them to get them to the floor then switch opponents for self defense

It is a useful self defense skill to try to escape from being held to the ground when soneone attacks you using brazillian jujitsu
It is not a useful self defense skill to hold someone to the ground using brazillian jujitsu
It is illegal in conpetition to escape being held to the ground stand up and walk away
See Jessie Encamp demonstrate this
@bigmattoidchimpin @Jens_Rasmussen @Hyperhidrosis
Jessie Encamp made a video showing how to defend yourself against Brazillian jujitsu by not being taken down for which he was nearly kicked out of a brazzillian jujitsu contest
@bigmattoidchimpin @Jens_Rasmussen @Hyperhidrosis
There is a difference between stand up & ground fighting jujitsu schools
I believe if you only learn one stand up fighting is better
In stand up you try to get the person to the ground without going to the ground yourself
In ground fighting like brazzilian jujitsu they often try to go down to the ground with their opponent putting them in greater danger against multiole attackers
In wrestling going to the ground means losing making it better
@bigmattoidchimpin @Jens_Rasmussen @Hyperhidrosis
Both boxing and wrestling would be better for self defense than brazillian jujitsu because of it's fixation with intentionally going to the ground when you do not need to
Wrestlers however would usually be better than boxers at avoiding being put down at the ground by another person
I believe brazzillian jujitsu has some value but not as much value as wrestling, boxing and kickboxing
Now you're trying practice Jewry with your Judo interpretation, "it does have a ground-fighting stage." Wrestling has a ground-fighting stage too. Judo is not majority ground-fighting, and never was. The advantage that Judo has over wrestling is that wrestlers can't do a judo throw, and a judo throw into concrete is a beautiful thing. Also, that bullshit you said about jiu-jitsu in re holding people down applies to wrestling more.
