I am a CMA/TMA guy, but I do believe that MA for sports is just as good thing as TMA. Here is something that was told to me by the father of the woman I am talking about here. I am not going to give out the names or the city in which this took place, just know it is a very big city.
A young woman that fights Sanshou, and does rather well, was going back home after going to the grocery store. She was walking and it was quite late, she was aware of the man walking behind her but since it was a large city she paid little attention. She was holding a bag of groceries in her left hand (by the handle) and talking on the cell phone, which was in her right hand.
The man jump in front of her and grabbed her waist. She hit him in the face with her right and backed him up. She hit him in the face again and knocked him down. He got up and ran away. She did not damage the cell phone, even though she had it in her had every time she hit him, nor did she drop the bag of groceries.
She did report it to the police, but the guy was not found.
She trains Sanshou for ring fighting and it worked pretty well in the street in this case.
My belief is that both Sport or Traditional can work in a real situation if you train and train them well.
