AZ is probably one of the biggest places in America for boxing so take your pic. Originally Posted by P-funk

With your body type you'd be a fuckin' natural at bjj. Short explosive is one of the ideal bjj body types. If you have a high athletic intelliegence level you could pick it up quick.

the majority of the time in MMA, your gonna be on the ground. if you can defend yourself from your own back you have a huge advantage
it really depends what your looking for. are you looking to learn a discipline or you looking to train as an mma athlete. if your going the mma athlete route i recommend BJJ for ground, muay thai down the road when your confident on the ground.
its a huge confidence boost to be able to dominate someone on the ground. And as bigdyl said, your bodytype is ideal for bjj. Short limbs, flexible, explosive.
some wrestling would help, shootfighting is cool too. it depends what you want to do
