IMO boxing or any martial art is effective in a street fight vs. common opponents who have no training in any combat art. Things get different though if you're outnumbered, or are facing against an opponent with a weapon (esp. a gun), or if your opponent is also a skilled fighter whose style has advantages over yours.

Hopefully someone dont get you from behind or suckers in a good blow with a weapon.

Most people in a street fight don't know how to fight, they are drunk as well....its a rhetorical question since any one who has basic ability to fight will have the advantage in purley skill. Knowing boxing also will know how to defend round house/ hook punching which will be thrown,i highly doubt any one here has fought a pro boxer / MMA fighter in the street so learning to defend against wild swings and combat it against a bumbling fool with boxing itself will make it much easier even if you happen to be one yourself that night.Last edited by juggernaut666; 07-20-2016, 09:08 PM.
