What some may call one of the original Mixed Martial Arts.
A mix of Boxing,Savate,Cane fighting and Jujitsu. Developed in 1899!
The only reason it has come up recently is a one line of dialogue in a Sherlock Holmes story. That led to the research as the art was lost in 1902.

I read about this somewhere. Too bad it didn't endure. Cane fighting interests me.

Bartitsu.
Sounds like something a questionable Uncle from the Philipines would say.
Thanks for the info MMX, repped/exalted.
