Mixed Martial Arts can be a various of styles as long as it involves boxing, kicking and grappling. Could be Karate and Jiu Jitsu, MMA doesn't mean Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai. And if i remember correctly Bas uses a variation of a karate kick, Mawashi Geri.
bruce lee proved that a bigger muscle isn't always a stronger muscle, so if the person is skilled enough, size doesn't matter. but with the mma kick and muay thai kick, i definitely agree.
@nathljin not really true, its basic mechanics "skills" wont improve your bodies maximum performance, lack of skills merely detract from your top possible performance.
And for all of you dip shits MMA is not a fight style there is no "mma kick", MMA is a conglomerate of other styles with restrictions on usable techniques to prevent its fighters from crippling or deadly injuries. USA has UFC which is a MMA, the military has a MMA, Eastern asia has several MMA leagues each with different styles.
@bobbysnobby when I said a bigger muscle isn't always a stronger muscle, I meant that if someone huge was compared to someone that was small but very tone, then the smaller person could probably hit harder because power = strength x speed. and for saying MMA isn't a style, it is, it just has no moves of it's own, because the STYLE is compiled of different styles, like BJJ is some Judo with most of it's own moves. but still, an MMA kick does not exist.
@thataznpride101 I second that emotion!! Bas used the fabeled MUAY THAI round shin kick. NOT MMA kick. Damn stupid syfy test was insulting to martial arts and marial arts styles, namely MUAY THAI. How you gonna call a knee move a kick and then compare the power of a kick against the knee move of the same martialarts style? This show obviously think people are THAT stupid or miss informed.
Excuse me, does anyone knows how much power in pounds Bas Rutten kicked the dummy?

i think what they meant is that bas rutten's kick isn't a traditional muay thai kick
look up his 'secret to power kicks'
calling it an mma kick was dumb, but the kick where they kick hard and dig in is different than what muay thai and karate teach you

Bas does not use muay thai kick, ask him, mechanics are very different.

you know what's funny and wrong about this video? several things:
1. the "MMA" kick is a MUAY THAI KICK.
2. they were comparing the "MMA" kick with the muay thai knee to the stomach. nice comparison!
3. if you look closely, the weight of the MT fighter and MMA fighter is different which would explain the difference in power..
and this video is called "scientific"? this is pathetic.
