You are probably already aware of the fact that no one martial arts discipline is dominant over all the others.
Each one has benefits and drawbacks, so it is impossible to say that one will always triumph.
However, there are certain attributes that can give any fighter the edge in a fight, whether on the street, in a caged match, or in a bar.
These attributes are will complement any fighting style as well.
By focusing on developing these traits along with your fighting style, you will be a force to be reckoned with.
Being focused and aware of your surroundings are crucial.
If you allow yourself to become distracted, whether by things that are around you or by your opponent, you will be at a serious disadvantage in a fight.
You need to also focus on being quick and aggressive.
In the wild, these two attributes alone are what settle most fights.
By being ruthless and fighting with conviction, you will harm the resolve of your opponent.
Keep in mind that having the proper training and being physically strong are very important, but without the aforementioned attributes they will not be enough unless you have a serious size advantage over your opponent.
And while many will argue on this point, making sure to stay upright during a fight until your opponent is on the floor will give you a huge advantage.
If you are in a caged fight, this will give you many opportunities to attack.
If you are defending yourself on the streets, you need to avoid going to the ground at all costs.
It is important to remember that you must train yourself to display these attributes at all times so you do not have to consciously think about them.
If you need to try to remember to stay focused and avoid the ground, you will lose focus on your opponent.
These attributes need to become a part of your muscle memory so they happen without you needing to concentrate on them.
That will allow you to concentrate your efforts on dominating your opponent.
