i always recommend boxing myself
quick to learn, striking beats grappling in most street fights, boxing gyms are everywhere, and it's usually on the cheaper end
how much will you get hurt in boxing if you're a beginner?
Probably less than Muay Thai, more than BJJ. But I agree that striking is going to be safer than grappling in any non-organized fight. You don't want to take it to the ground if there's any sort of risk that somebody might jump in. Sparring in a controlled environment with gloves and headgear on is going to be very safe in general.
