Mostly just asking out of curiosity, I don’t really have the time or the energy to be going to Judo classes RN.

I have heard some people say Judo actually, and karate, other just traditional boxing.

    I honestly think sambo could potentially be that martial art, as it was designed to be practical self defense. And it’s from the USSR so it’s cool. Problem is unless you live in Eastern Europe you’re not going to be able to find a decent place to learn (and even then), and you really can’t learn it just from YouTube videos.

    The answer is probably BJJ, as it’s still a very practical martial art and you can find places everywhere - even in relative smallish US cities.
