Would it be a good idea to dip my feet into boxing as a form of self-defense (not really competitive) or will that get me nowhere?

[wakka]

it's a great sport, for self-defense but also to stay fit and healthy, if you like it try it.

[olichan12]

Definitely a good sport to get into. For self-defense, that or one of the martial arts.

[Flipper2375]

If you got free time. Ya go for it, why not?

[glasses]

i would recommend taikwando

karate is also really good

---

personally i am a fencer which requires really good discipline

[yan qin]

good way to gain more cardio

[rocklee2019]

Boxing has the best striking, fundamentally. Standup in general muay thai

[MiniPessi]

Not the best self defense sport, but learning striking is ALWAYS useful

[Lostad9864]

yes it is a lot of fun

[hillmeade0]

yeah it can work your stamina and it won’t hurt you

[wamspinthabin]

Yeah why not it would only benefit

[Miraiwa Future]

It is the best sport for me

[wasdq123]

No, don't learn it for self defense. Get in a boxing gym if you like sparring.

[magin]

it's a great spor really for amateur

[Jakkie1234]

Definitely good for your fitness level

[jubui123]

Yes but probs not the best for self defense

[travisbutler]

I think yes, itll give you good cardio, add to your endurance, and help you blow off some steam
