I wrestled in HS (very tough exhausting sport)and i have only limited experience with BJJ.
I was taught basic "street fighting" by a good friend of mine who was a SEAL in Nam.
I box every day approx 12 rounds and i really love it.
One of my favorite bags is the Cobra Reflex bag, on a sunny day i can bring it in my back yard and really sweat.

I have the DE bag and the Mexican style DE bag.
I have one of those hand-grip plate loaders from Iron Mind and i attatch 1 bungee cord from the ceiling to the top of the bag and 1 bungee cord from the bottom of the bag to the plate loader.
I use different lengths of bungee cord to make the bag fast or slow.
My favorite is the speed bag and after working with Alans book it is really fun to use your elbows etc.
I frequently do all 12 rounds on the speed bag only.
I think it really helps with hand/eye coordination.
