What is the best Cup for heavy fighting?

I have heard that Nutty Buddy makes a great cup, but I am doing a little research. What is the best cup (for protecting your man parts) in your opinion?

I use a Nutty Buddy.. I also use a pair of Underarmour Sliding pants with a standard "banana" cup.

Between the two, the Nutty Buddy is my number one go to.

I'm a big fan of my nutty buddy. I've also heard good things about stel muay thai cups.

When they first posted on the nutty buddy here a couple years ago I ordered one and wow.. I wont use anything else.
Very comfy.

Nutty Buddy is the best cup I have found/used. I would recommend it without any hesitation.

Another vote for the nutty buddy.

I used to wear a pair of XO sliding shorts with a anatomic cup, and before that, a different jock strap and cup combo. The NB is probably the most comfy, and the most convenient (you don't have to wear the cup to practice, or leave it in until you get home).

i like the muay thai steel cup.

but the deal breaker for most is that it ties on like a thong.

and, for the record, they can be broken. by a suitably motivated Viking squire.

Maybe shifting to titanium would be a good idea...

Well people seem overwhelmingly in favor of the nutty buddy, so I guess I will get one of those then. Thanks for your input guys.

I think it is more a case of what is best for the individual. My nutcase is a martial arts one, I think. I don't even notice it is there when I'm fighting with it, even when sprinting on the warfield, however others have suggested different types to me as more comfortable, but I think it is a case of what suits the individual.
