Boxing is not a martial art...it is a sport & one of the best in terms of pure athleticism. It is not meant to be used on the street, but improvised like the Filipinos did before boxing (FMA called Panatukan) came to the Islands; it can be devestating. Boxing is a way to gets some "Aliveness" (see Thorton at straightblastgym.com) Boxing & its training while training in something like BJJ or CSW would be very tough.
