Um, that one.
That they teach the cops over in that one place.
Magna somethingerather.

Krav Maga.

I was just about to post that.

Fighting style created specifically for street fighting. To do the most damage in the shortest amount of time then to run. Has whole courses in disarming. Oh and training in crazy real world possible situations, i.e. If its dark, if your dizzy (drunk fighting!), if there is loud noise. If you are against multiple assailents, if you have to protect someone etc etc.

Ya that.
Watched some video's on youtube a while go, and it looks like you could actually use it in a fight.

ah that explains it

I've been taking it for a few years now. I used to take Tae Kwon Do a while back, but Shorin-Ryu just destroys it.

Shorin-Ryu is less about being able to hit really hard, and more about technique. It is very effective, deadly, and is not to be used for sport (unlike Tae Kwon Do).

Practical, eh? My vote automatically go to Hokuto Shin-Ken. Just hit your enemy one to 100 times, and walk away. Don't worry about them actually counter-attacking...

..Because they are... already dead.

 

[Vault boy Eddie]

Krav maga, muay thai and dirty boxing.

 

[Weaver]

Gun kata.
Duh.

Actually, I am unsure. Probably one that the military (not sure which military, incidentally,) teaches.

I didn't like that movie that much

 

[Jonny The Kay]

MMA or American Kenpo

 

[Scoooby]

Drunken Boxing
Realistically, you will only ever get into a fight while drunk.

QFT i'd still side with Muay Thai for the none drunk times though

100 hits sounds deadly, but it isn't exactly practical.

I've never even seen it.

hehe, I wouldn't bother unless you want something to laugh at. It has some neat ideas, but everything about the whole movie just reeks of cheesiness!
