Not to mention, either of the choices you mentioned would probably be more cost-efficient than MMA training, while still providing you with a good dose of training.

I've talked to guys who don't have a base in anything.. and who train in MMA...they can't really tell me anything that they've learned..
I've asked them what their base was.. and they tell me, "MMA... we do everything.."
lol
don't get me wrong.. it's fine.. i'm sure if you did it long enough you'd probably get good at it..
but..if you want to compete in amateur fights... i wouldn't..
all the good fighters have a strong foundation in a particular discipline.
choose a striking base.. and a grappling base... concentrate on those two for like a year.. at least..
If you just want to get into shape and have some fun..then sure.. by all means.. MMA is great. That's what martial arts is about.
