Muay Thai for MMA. Kick boxing is good also but it doesn't work with the knee and elbow strikes like Muay Thai does.
Kick boxing does teach you things like throwing to impress the judges and how to hold your head and good foot work.

good call...........
It also depends on your build. A guy with shorter limbs may do better with kick boxing.

a mix of american boxing and mauy thai.
Mauy Thai has the more powerful weapons, however boxing is more practical however.
Using boxing and switching to mauy thai when you have a chance to use thoses weapons (knees elbows) would be the best method.

Hands down...Muay Thai. Muay Thai improvises the use of feet, hnds, elbows and kness, which in retrospect gve your attacks more diversity and effectiveness. It's often referred to as the 8 limb art. Anyway, Gilbert Yvel can testify to the greatness to Muay Thai, as can V. Silva and Heath Herring.

The answer to this question is Kendo. No matter how good you are at punching or kicking, it won't keep me from chopping your ****in' head off with a katana.
