hahah yeah lol probably. but yeah i think boxing.
The martial arts community is split in two isnt it between the traditional and the athletic combat sports side.
The argument that rages is if the sports side is actually more effective than the traditional side even when the rules are removed. in my opinion, from having spent years on both sides, id say the sports side in general is miles ahead.
The most looked down upon from the traditional side is boxing. being the most limited (in appearance).
However if i had to take someone and give them one thing that would give them the best self defense for the street, it would be boxing. Even over thai boxing as at the lower levels most boxers will beat thai boxers in a fight as thai takes longer to adapt to.
So in a way its the best self defense system out there.
Moving on to it being underrated. The MMA community are too quick to just give boxing a passing look. I think adding better boxing is where MMA is lacking in general. In thai boxing its often not at a high enough standard in my opinion and that as stated before that at lower levels boxers will give thai boxers a really hard time.
i think i covered it all.
