I have trained in a couple of different fighting arts in my life. Within the world of fighting arts there are a lot of controversies. One of the biggest controversies that I have heard is "Which Fighting Art is the best to Practice?" "Which Fighting Art is the most Superior?" Well as far as I go on this subject is that ultimately in the end it is not the Fighting Art that is Superior or Inferior. It is the person using the Fighting Art that is Superior or Inferior. For after all it is not the Fighting art itself that wins or loses. It is the person using the Fighting Art that wins or loses. What do think?, Please don't try to give overrated complicated answers to try to play off one Fighting Art as better than another.

I would say that this varies by person. What you need to do is take things from each fighting style you have learned that can be practically applied to a fight and use thoes. An example of a style of fighting based on this is MCMAP or the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program. It combines many styles of fighting and uses partical moves for the environment you will be situated in.

Fighting arts is the combinations of strategies that help save us. Fighting arts teach us how to futile one's attack but not teach us to attack or hit the attacker. Training superiors never teach us to misuse or build any ill mindset while teaching us those arts. Apart from this explanation, arts are eye captivating and are things to be enjoyed and just to be enjoyed. So there is supposed not to come the question if any fighting arts superior or inferior or the person using fighting arts superior or interior. So question is absurd.

I think people just need to pick the one that fits them the most. I have been in tae kwon do for years and love it! I agree that it is not the fighting art that is superior/inferior they are each unique in their own way. It is the person that makes it superior/inferior. You need focus, speed, strength, determination, and hard work to do the best you can in the fighting art that you are practicing
