As far as karate's effectiveness, I'm not really a big supporter of karate I admit but any martial art gives you an edge over just the average guy. I actually beleive the reason for this is that they have sparred with people on a regular basis so they aren't completely caught of guard that there is a fist headed dirrectly at their face.
I beleive that if you have a decent ground game your going to destroy the average street fighter.
