If you're strong, in good shape, and train hard in any legit art you'll be better off than if you aren't equipped.
Every situation is different. None of us can really wager that we could take two or more guys in a real fight, especially if they're tough and strong. It's just good to train hard in something, whether it's bjj, mt, tkd, kravmaga, or what not. You have to either be really good or somewhat advanced to feel confident in using your art.
You don't know what your opponent might be good at on the street. If he was a college wrestler, you don't know that. If he's a golden gloves guy you also don't really know. I guess the stance that someone takes before attacking shows something.
If I was fighting a wrestler on the street I'd probably clinch and give him a leg to do an easy single leg, otherwise I'd be afraid of getting slammed.
I've never been to a bar where there was glass on the floor. I'm sure there are sidewalks with glass in unsafe neighborhoods but I try not to walk around in such places.
I haven't been in a fight since I got my ass kicked once in junior high, don't think I ever will.
