Good to see mention of the grappling arts on here. Studying a traditional MA will absolutely get you killed on the streets. The best bet is a mixture of Thai boxing and some form of submission wrestling.
Pure striker vs. grappler will end badly for the striker 99% of the time. As someone who's seen 1000s of free-fight matches, I speak zee truth. And there's no need to trust anyone's opinion: there are dozens of UFC tapes for rent at nearly any video store in the country. See what happens for yourself. Traditional practicioners don't even bother competing anymore.
