If you could mix any fighting styles what would they be? I'm thinking BJJ for submission, Wing Chun for striking and maybe Kendo for weapon combat?

BJJ (subs and overall sexiness), Boxing (hands), Muay Thai(knees, elbows and kicks) and a little wrestling (takedowns), pain is temporary, pride is forever. www.roycegraciesheffield.com

BJJ and Muay Thai is a perfect combination.

This will give you an all round combination for both stand up and ground fighting / takedowns.

Wing Chung may be a bit static to mix with BJJ.

Can't comment on the wrestling but I know a lot of MMA fighters train quite a lot using wresting for grappling etc.

Good luck!! "hell ain't a bad place to be"

I want to train in Shaolin Wushu but I'm not agile enough for that yet.

bjj will not give you great takedowns or takedown defence


bjj for subs
wrestling for position, dominance and takedowns
thai boxing for kicks, knees elbows
boxing for punching covering and footwork "Bad weather all the time"
