No stay well clear u have to be pretty massive to be a boxer. I mean just look at the Bantamweight divisons. Them guys are huge. Beating up bigger people is what boxings all about tho. So good luck ::**Quote:

Being able to defend yourself is the issue should a situation arise. For strength and from your attitude I think you probably mean big arms just go to a gym and lift weights.
From a self defence point of view I would reccomend Tae Kwon Do (preferably WTF not ITF). By doing this you will learn to fight in a ring and some very useful and effective self defence techniques.
Id suggest hooked on phonix and a good mix of a striking discipline(boxing/muy thai etc) and some form of grappling or submission(judo, BJJ, freestyle etc)
Yes I recommend you get a strong command of the English Language!!!
I am an advocate of Jeet Kune Do it will help you to be efficient in all ranges of self defense and combat..its a practical art that you can pull off in any situation that really limits the advantage a bigger person may have
But have the right motivation you don't want to be running around like some derelict who beats people up for know reason at the age of 14 that will get you know were fast....AND PLEASE GO BACK TO SCHOOL FOR CHRIIIISSS SAKE.
English please....or at least close to English...umm...BOXING..i think..Quote:

With regards to suggestions of muay thai and other striking arts, this is something that i would not reccomend for use outside of the ring. When you are outside of the ring you are subject to the law. Explaining to a policeman that you do muay thai and thats why when the guy came towards you threateningly you elbowed him in the nose, kneed him in the ribs and then dropped him to the floor will not leave you in a very good situation.
Here is what my example of perfect self defense is:
1. You need something to defend against eg an actual incoming strike whether it be punch/kick/knife/bottle, and not just somebody mouthing at you. Self defence always assumes that you are the non-aggressor.
2. You must block/deflect or otherwise avoid the strike. Stopping a strike with your face/chin/bollocks is not a block.
3. Once this is done the aggressor must rendered unable to attack again. This can be done with a direct strike or manipulation such as a lock or a throw followed by a strike.
Grappling or submission on its own is not enough as self defence because firstly the guy probably has a couple of mates watching and secondly the moment you release the lock or submission the person (assuming they are the normal aggressive prick will go for you again)
Legally following this procedure will leave you completely above the law assuming you use reasonable force, Losing control is not the answer.
Having said that boxers are officially the people bouncers least like getting bother with because they are very good at throwing punches that knock people out! But the boxer will get arrested a la Scott Harrison
