Find a boxing gym that's nearby and get to it. Any and every martial art or self defense technique you do afterwards will only be better because of it. It'll teach you timing, reactions and most of all get you in the face of others you're fighting against. MMA is good, but a lot of fights are settled extremely quickly. In a real self defense situation you want to be the guy that can drop a dude and run, not the guy who is looking to win a fight.
