Answer 6

You should learn karate it has every thing. but every martial art is good

Answer 7

Wow if your what u just described then u can do a bit of everything

but besides that you have to choose on your own i mean look up all the type of martial arts and you have an option of working on a part of yourself that needs work or you can improve that is considered your best

try a little bit of everything and see what you like and go for it

Answer 8

as said earlier, you should go BJJ or Muay Thai. dont waste your natural talents on fancy c**p.

you have the competitive edge and body that would thrive in muay thai or BJJ, leading on to MMA.

the choice is yours however, and any post here is subject to personal bias based on our individual experiences, but I say you are made to fight hard, so go where it counts.

the good thing is that you are young enough to change your mind about anything you do and still have time to be good at your next choice etc. get stuck in now, dont let anyone (instructors included) take c**p and make you have tunnel vision. keep your options open.

if it starts to bore you, move on. every new thing you try will reinforce your current ideas and you will arrive at your own truth about where you should go.

good luck.
