Muay Thai Ziquor: I disagree and say Jiu-Jitsu - without a doubt. In mixed martial arts where hundreds of different fighting styles are used - anywhere from boxing to wrestling to kickboxing - Jiu-Jitsu has by far the highest win percentage. When fights occur that include a Jiu-Jitsu fighter - the Jiu-Jitsu style wins greater than 82% of the time. For reference Muay Thai fighters win 60% of their fights and Judo style fighters win 58% of their fights. I agree with the guy above me Brazilian jiu jitsu is an excellent fighting style that has a great self defence so if you were to work on one Jiu jitsu is the way to go.
