Muay Thai Training in Thailand (Awesome!)

[gokharol]

I came for the "(awesome!)"

[erkoelm]

who the fuck says that tkd kicks are stronger than thai kicks?-.-

[LA56VVF]

Imagine your on a disco floor, when it kicks off, MT, knee's and elbows are very effective,

Tko, would struggle in close combat

[420salah]

the guys on the top comments are high as fuck

[leftovaz]

One thing I can say is that REALISTICALLY, if you got into a fight on the street, if you were doing TKD, you'd be cutting out more that half of what you're trained to do, IF YOU KNOW HOW TO FIGHT, otherwise you'd be doing dumb shit like spinning back axe kicks at six people, cause it's apparently "powerful". If you were taught MT however, you'd be doing practically 95% of what you trained to do. Therefore, IMHO MT works better. It has more realistic applications, for more realistic scenarios.

[elendiel]

@leftovaz Very true. Speaking for myself, in a real fight, I would probably not use MT kicks (maybe except the lowkick, and pushkick), since they are a bit too risky in my opinion. Knees and elbows are the core of close range fighting, though.

[hazardhanson]

sorry for me? i have trained in both muay thai and TKD and from experience i can assure you, thai kicks are more powerful...

[Elchori79]

do you know some addrese in Bangkok to buy muay thai gear ? thanks !!

[boatblessonorband]

Im Thai. Im 23 yrs old, and i used to be a professional thai boxer. This guy in the clip is a professional thai boxer. We muaythai boxer will wake up at 5:30 in the morning for 12 kilometers jogging. We come back to the gym.Next we do jumping rope at least 30 mins without rest. We do at least 300 kicks for each legs without rest. We do clinching 30 mins without rest. We fight for practice for 30 mins without rest. We do 500-1000 yap per arm.Finish at 10 oclock, then we repeat these again at 3.

[somersetkravmaga]

@boatblessonorband Hi. Thats some tough training. Do thai boxers usually retire so early - do older fighters manage to do that training ?

[1080famous]

@boatblessonorband 10 oclock pm or am?

[yardkyle]

(insert comment here knocking either Muay Thai or TKD to start a lame debate about which style is better)

[eminemweloveyou]

he needs to pull his shorts up

[DJGARCIA2011]

if you do just thai boxing (muay thai) you don't have enough technique for fast and hard long distance punches: "Really", are you sure about that!! Not enough technique must disagree with that statement..

[lowrider218]

@Jonnyaxer i'd try to take Boxing AND Muay Thai cause if you're an allrounder you have tools against any fighter if you specialize on boxing there will allways be the kicking fighter's who could fu** you up and if you do just thai boxing (muay thai) you don't have enough technique for fast and hard long distance punches and then you should try to flow between these techniques like they are all one.

[MultiSnoozer]

all here? xD



[TheATK77]

lots of energy and well balancing.....nice

[gustang98]

muay thai es la vergaaaaaaaaaaa

[Thomaswersons]

@PS3BossOezi na sicher... kenn sogar einen der macht das auch annem boxsack un viel öfters

[Jonnyaxer]

what would be the best fighting style for me i'm a 14 year old boy I take wrestling but i want to learn something new

[undeadpresident]

@Jonnyaxer learn jujitsu/submission grappling as well. Wrestling is great for takedowns and conditioning, but on the ground things change a whole lot when you can choke and do submissions, so it is worth it to learn that.

[Emzfit]

cool

[kotiara79]

there is no bad styles,trhere are bad fighters



[thedoubledeus]

holy crap if he kicked me i dont think id still be alive

[glambo21]

MUAY THAI ++++ ALL THE WAY



[exodia94]

wooo, chill guys, both of this martial arts are cool man

[MrCarstennielsen]

the soaring heart...

[MrCarstennielsen]

could not fit all in.

Allso he is rytmical, still important it is, that he does not take any enjoyment besides what is appropiate, he just experiences all happening as an observer.

The rythme allso is result of never stopping up in either time or space, neither does he get deluded or sucked into these elements.

[MrCarstennielsen]

have seen this video 300 times +!

Pay attention to how the practitioner elevates his body's heart continiously, but still is severly grounded to be able to continue the series endlessly from the ground upward.

His perfect unselfconsiously selfsyncronisation-ING (continiously) are seemingly endless and due to his unselfconsiousness, he does not take any pride, selfglorification or ever stops up in conisousness.

Progressive continousity in a dynamic biomecanic mode is what happens.

[KensaiZen]

The greatest style = a style that can make a normal man into a fighting machine and can turn a fighting machine into an invincible warrior.

But lets go by law of averages lol basicly if the style works for over 50% of people. Its a better style.

[jaycw669]

Oh man.. they have been trying to determine the best and most effective form for ages and really there is no real answer. Here is an example, I have a friend who has 65 professional full thai rules fights under his belt, 20mma fights and a series other tournaments for wrestling/bjj ect. One night out, he got into an argument with some dude with zero fight training, buddy caught my friend with a lucky punch and knocked him out. Sometimes its just dumb luck.

[DaveKarl]

@jaycw669 Agree 100%

[TheBIGALLAN]

@jaycw669 ace story mate thats what would happen to me, all that trainin to get sparked by mister muscle, take care mate

[jalidav1]

@jaycw669 why lie? you don't have such a friend. could have just made your point without the lie, but i do find it highly unlikely that a guy with over 85 fights in various styles (which obviously means he must have been training for decades) would be stupid enough to get caught out by some random in a bar who has never had a fight. This should be in the hall of fame for most fucking ridiculous youtube comment of all time

[jaycw669]

@jalidav1 uhm.. do i know you? Didn't think so. SO just cause a guy has been in lots of pro fights means he can't go out to a bar once in a while and get into an argument with someone? lol and the guy he fought has been in fights but never trained an actual martial art. They got mouthy with each other, did the whole push and shove shit, the he swung at my buddy and totally missed cause how drunk he was but after taking a couple to the face he caught my friend with a sloppy right hook.

[RhadeConstantine]

kicking machine!!!

[MMAkombat4Life]

I hate to stick up for TKD i love Muay Thai but i just watched a battle between a tkd and mt and the tkd won... Not only is it the style but the Practioner....if u think one style is so much more elite than the other then u can have a buddy learn one and u learn the other and see who wins...since muay thai is way better "sarcasm" then u should whoop "WHOOP" his ass im not sayin one is better than the other im saying its the person using it

[bigdags22]

@MMAkombat4Life

I agree its the person and his or her trainer!

[jinwukoonbyron]

I just came back from training with these guys TKD practioners would have there feet swept out from under them before there kick hit the ground not even worth comparing

[ichujini]

it sounds like he's shooting lazers.

[totaalfotografie]

Is that Sackmonkol?

[IlyaSpez]

Realy Nice Traning!! iw been ther from 23 to 30 jennuary!!

[ericmull1]

Great power especially from the left leg..

[n0madc0re]

Also, judging by how the sparring partner's arms are backing off, I do maintain that his kicks are not that powerful. Trust me.

Come on, don't put pride in this discussion, I'm not saying that TKD is better than Muay Thai, I'm just saying that this training video is not as awesome as the title wants to advertise.

[dkranmer]

@n0madc0re bla bla bla...why dont mma fighters do TKD? Because is flashy BS that dont work. You can throw as many kicks as you want before your leg hits the ground. And when your leg hit the ground im gunna knee the shit out your face and hit you with an elbow while your falling face first into the mat.

[n0madc0re]

@dkranmer Hahaha, you are so selfish, reminds me of those kids in the playground : "Hey I'm Sangoku, and I kill you with my firebaaaaal !"

Grow up. I never said TKD was better than Muay Thai.

[crhh1989]

@n0madc0re-Sorry but I used to do TKD. Those "competition kicks" are just as hard as any other kicks you'll learn to throw in TKD. It's silly to critisize a martial art like Muay Thai which has proven itself again and again against other styles when you know absolutely nothing about it. That doesn't mean that Muay Thai is the end all. Sandra, Pradel Serey, kickboxing styles from Europe and Japan, and even JKD are valid striking styles. TKD is not a valid striking style if it's not in Korea.

[n0madc0re]

Sorry dude, I'm not here to showoff ;)

And those tippy tappy kicks you're talking about are competition kicks, which are not meant to hurt, but to score.

Now I can swear that taking a unleashed TKD kick in the ribs can severly hurt.

I accidentally teared a rib muscle of a friend with a "tippy tappy" 360 kick, at a training session. I was really sorry for him, and didn't put any power in it.

[zzzzbisonxzzzz]

@n0madc0re do that 360 kick in real life fight.

tkd is awesome. i believe there is a kick from tkd that is much more powerful then a muay thai kick according to "fight science" on National Geographic

BUT there is a huge but here.

tkd is not a practical choice in fighting a untrained street fighter, muay thai would be the number one choice here.

that is why you see the 2 most popular combination in mma to be muay thai and bjj or wrestling

[n0madc0re]

@zzzzbisonxzzzz Your answer is the most educated one over here ;)

[n0madc0re]

Err, sorry but taekwondo uses the same kick training, except they require to throw much faster kicks (used to throw 2 per second on a total of 43, and I'm not a premium fighter at all).

Such training and speed is therefore very common :)

[Higotatski]

@hazardhanson i agree i used to do tae kwon do its more for contests then real fights

[slugslurper101]

@hazardhanson A true martial artist doesn't pick an argument with another martial artist.

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@slugslurper101 LOL thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard... just because you take tkd at some back alley rex kwon do wannabee gym... it doesnt mean your a martial artist...haha and who taught you that bullshit? mr rex kwon himself?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

man im laughing so hard ive actually got tears in my eyes... well atleast you made someone cry... haha tkd fag

[slugslurper101]

@thecrazyoftheinsane The fuck are you talking about, it's true and I don't do TKD I do Thai boxing you fag. And by the way never underestimate a karate man it's stupid and I've seen the consequences before. And I can also tell that because you've been doing this sport for like 6 months you think that you're tough as fuck but ill tell you what mate... you're a sad, cocky, useless fuck.

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@slugslurper101 LOL i did karate for 3 years before converting to muay thai for 2... i have fought against wrestlers, muay thai fighters, karate fighters, and TKD fighters and TKD fighters and karate fighters were the easiest fights of my life bar none and having done karate i know how horribly it prepairs you for an actual fight and how much false confidence people get from belts... its hilarious that you tried to sound educated though...because i just made you look pretty fucking stupid...haha

[slugslurper101]

@thecrazyoftheinsane You just think that you're hard, shut your gob and stop acting cocky you sad twat. Now go fill in your coulouring book you child.

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@slugslurper101 HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW ANOTHER GREAT ANALYSIS BY CUMSLURPER101

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HA

holy shit your so fucking stupid its actually HILARIOUS... omfg i think im going to passout from laughter... YOUR SUCH A DUMB FUCK, your insults done even match up with mine.... HAHAHAHAHAHA man your the funniest troll ive ever come across on youtube... you stupid fuck.. did you even pass grade school?... because by the looks of it... its highly unlikely...poor poor retard...haha

[slugslurper101]

@thecrazyoftheinsane What do you mean pass grade school? I live in the UK and I'm 14. And the "cumslurper101" comment, you said my insults don't even match up with yours but that is the most childish thing I've ever seen. As I said you're a sad fuck. Now grow up.

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@slugslurper101 I knew you were one of those disgusting brits. You crooked toothed ugly fuck you basically just copied what i said to you in that comment... LOL its obvious you want to be like me but a dumb brit like you will never have the mental capacity to be able to do so. Anyway like i said... come back when you have a comment that relates to whats being said and not the usual "fuck you""your sad"... because thats all youve been saying, and it just makes your look more stupid...haha

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@slugslurper101 and the fact that you talk about how you have " witness the consequences of underestimating a karate man" and your 14 and a fucking butcktoothed brit just make this so much more funny.

[jalidav1]

@thecrazyoftheinsane Don't insult all brits bro, granted slugslurper is a fucking douche and deserves all the shit you throw at him, I have read the conversation and it is clear he is a prick.....but to put him in the pen with all brits is harsh, as i am british and i guaruntee i would more than easily fill you in

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@jalidav1 lol its just the best way to deal with a troll, i didnt mean it obviously i have a few good friends that are british

[yardkyle]

@hazardhanson you are right you can't compare because all styles have advantages and disadvantages. Just like you can't say TKD kicks are better, you can't say MT kicks are better. It only depends on the player. GENERALLY MT kicks are stronger and TKD kicks are faster but i've seen MT players who are as fast as TKD players and ive seen TKD players who are as powerful as MT players.

There are no better styles, only better players

[jalidav1]

@yardkyle I agree with you, but there are styles better suited to certain players, for example tall atheletic people seem to strive in TKD where a shorter stocky man may prefer to wrestle, but that being said there are styles which are suited to a wider range of people, Muay Thai is one of these, you can excel in the techniques your body prefers to learn and you in turn learn to throw these more effectively, TKD has a set criteria that may not suit certain people thus making MT the better style

[yardkyle]

@jalidav1 this is true. for a short period of time, MT will be one of the most effective styles mainly because of it's simplicity. After a year or two of training, most people can learn most if not all MT techniques. A style like TKD that incorporated spinning back kicks, hook kicks, axe kicks, etc. takes a lot longer to master the basics. If any style is trained for a long enough time though it can be as effective as any other style. Some just take longer to master the basics

[mikee555]

@yardkyle lmao 2 years all the techniques bro come fight me ill sweep you with 20 difrent sweeps, ive done shotokan karate tkd and muay thai, tkd takes 3 years to get a black belt and the only things you can use in a real fight from tkd is spinning kicks or a perfectly timed tornado kick, tkd is only good for final blows or there side kicks for distance

[jurriaan1]

@mikee555 Lol 3 years? what kind of academy your on? at mines it take about 5-6 years .

and i dont know but you can use the ''kata,s'' and not only the spinning kick and the tornado kicks in a real fight.

[yardkyle]

@mikee555 i didn't say that a black belt equals good skill. I've seen countless useless black belts. I stand by my comment. If you train any style long enough, you can use it effectively. Three years of TKD deffinately isn't long enough. Do it for ten years or more and then you can talk about how useless it is.

Personally, i'm a Muay Thai player. I don't know much about TKD but i have trained in Korea with some good TKD players and they all have great, effective sparring skills.

[J0ker4u]

@hazardhanson Actually a good Tae Kwon DOe fighter is not AT ALL tippy tappy! TKD fighters can be VERY hard to deal with...

[moussleouf]

@hazardhanson Sorry for you, but taekwondo snap kicks are more more powerfull than muay thai full roundhouse when it comes to the head and the body kicks. A snap kick has a lot more penetration in the muscles.

[arkonastriborg123]

@hazardhanson tdk kicks with feet not shin like muay thai, muay thai is better

[yardkyle]

@hazardhanson At a beginner level Thai style is more powerful simply because it is a lot more natural and far easier to execute but after you have mastered any style, it comes down to the practitioner, not the art. Look at someone like Bren Foster. He is WTF taekwondo but he can kick as hard as any Thai boxer, in fact a lot harder than most.

No better styles, only better players :)

[mehle3]

@n0madc0re tkd kicks bulshit for point this is real kicks..wich not easy to do..

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

@n0madc0re tkd is also the most useless martial art next to.... actually ive got nothing worse than tkd on the list at the moment lol

[FaibroXxX]

cool man very good and fast!!!

[antti13]

Just enjoy watching technical muay thai kicks .
