I'm with Link on this. MMA all the way. If your son is looking into boxing for a way to get in shape etc., then that's good, it's great for that. But if it's for self defense, forget about it. Something like 80% of fights go to the ground, and boxing won't help you there.

I've been teaching my son jiu-jitsu for the last couple years, and I've got no worries that he can handle himself if one of the older, bigger bullies in school gives him a hard time.
