mauy thai defeats boxing, then again i'm on a ****in boxing forum so it will be hard for me to convince you guys.

mauy thia is a tool but sometimes people who use there tools effecitvely win.

boxing is more of a sport but you still develop reflex strenght and many other thing depend who you train with

I had an argument today with a friend that believes that boxers cannot hold their own in a street fight. He believes that other combat sports such as karate, olympic wrestling, judo, mixed martial arts are highly superior compared to boxing and that boxers outside the ring cannot handle their own when they are not in the ring. He pretty much believes that boxing is the lowest form of fighting technique. I got really aggrevated by this and told him that boxing is very disciplined and that he wouldn't stand a chance against a boxer in the ring or outside the ring. He then responded by saying something dumb like "well boxers only punch, so in a street fight, I'll kick him in his knee and tackle him." By a response like that, I was really mad and also dissapointed thinking that a lot of non-boxing fans feel this way?
Do any of your friends who are not boxing fans or boxing fans think that boxing is the lowest form of fighting technique?

I believe if you have 2 guys who are exactly the same physically and 1 guy practice boxing while the other guy practice muythai or judo, chances are the boxing guy will lose to the other guy in a street fight.
because all the muythai guy has to do is cover up with his hands and throw kicks at the boxer from distance. same with judo, all he has to do is to duck low and clinch. once he got a hold of the boxer, the fight is over. I am not saying the boxer has NO chance but in general, I see the boxer loses more than wins. Nowaday,the baddest guy is the guy who practice every form. punch, kick, takedown, takedow defense, submision.. boxing is only a small part of combat. still it is my fav. sport

he is someone who judges an art by the amount of techniques within it.

boxing is superior to most forms because of the contact training methods. boxers are usually fitter and stronger than other martial artists because they are forced to train hard. boxers are also mentallt tougher, they haven taken punches and know how to remain composed. most martial artists tend to get very sloppy after getting hit once, boxers learn to get hit and keep going.

if, however you trianed in MMA with the same kind of training as you do in boxing you would probably be better on the street.

not many judokas can get close to a boxer without getting hit and as it would be the first time they were hit they would probably fall into the one of these two ptions:
lose all composure and start openning up with wide slow haymakers
shield their head in their arms and try to move away
in my experience these are the two most common things that a person does when they get hit.

with thai boxing it really dpends how they were trained.
thai boxers need to be closer than you think to deliver punishing kicks such as the roundhouse, they usually kick just inside of punching range . in a streetfight 1 good punch usually ends it or at least is the begiining of the end. it would take many thai kicks to end a fight and everytime a kicker lifts his leg of the floor he is completely immobile. a boxer should be ble to move in and punch while his leg is still in the air!!

you guys ever thought about the fact that the boxer will get taken down very easily.

muai thai on average is a more effective and better fightform with more weapons than boxing.


ive been boxing for 3-4 years than my gym got bankrupt last december and ive trained bjj and muay thai since.

im a lot better punchers than the muay thai guys so at punching range im superior, however i get shocked off all the bruises i find on my legs inner thigs whan i undress.

in a ring muay thai is superior in the street i dont know since punching is more applyable.
