Mat, if there is a Krav Maga school near you, I'd recommend that over boxing for non-sport combat. In sports, such as boxing, there are rules. When you're defending yourself or others against an attacker, this is not the case, other than the laws appropriate to your jurisdiction. Krav Maga teaches according to this paradigm. The Krav Maga schools I've attended were very conscious of their students' well being, and warned us every session to not hurt each other, and only go at 50%.
I'm not going to debate this: It's my suggestion and stands, as-is. Others will have differing points of view, and you can choose for yourself.
