I think that depends on the goals of the mental training, but overall I would probably say that traditional martial arts that have full sparring also included in them would be best. Judo is my pick.

I have a lot of opinions about this: it my point is that the hard distinction between mma and tma is training philosophy at best, branding at worst

people in MMA or TMA are effective based upon how they train and how open their mindset is--but only to a point; no one is 100% effective in all contexts and situations but the techniques? basically the same, with flourishes/simplifications here and there

Why the fake dichotomy? What is useful in leadership positions isn't necessarily what helps you win fistfights

Reading about embodied cognition ATM so I’d say MMA as you get a visceral experience of one-to-one conflict. In stylised martial arts the opponent is abstracted. In MMA the opponent is there, both responsive and proactive, which forces and leads to better conflict modelling.

Brazilian Jiu jitsu. You learn how to think under stress, implement plans and adjust them on the fly.

Obviously depends on the specific gym/style/system/etc but I don’t think there’s a big gulf between the mental training benefits of the two as long as one fully applies themselves and live sparring is involved. Imo a better comparison would be combat sports vs strategy games
