So I'm massive nerd but I try to be practical, and I enjoy hema and do a lot of montonte (great sword) drills.
And I recently watched some videos on capoeira because it's some crazy movie looking style they somehow works in MMA sometimes. I noticed the way they swing their legs and carry momentum is very similar to the way you do so with a montonte.
The montonte was a weapon designed for keeping people away from a specific area and to fight multiple other armed opponents, and if the great sword is good at that wouldn't an unarmed style that carries the same momentum and force also be good at that?
Yes the best self defense is run, but you can't do that with family or friends on the line, and if you're unarmed against a group of other unarmed people you could do giant powerful sweeping kicks to keep them away
