Nobody is the best, if you have more than 100 fights, im sure you lost more than once. And that doesn't mean that who beat you is better. Dekker beat coban twice, Coban beat Dieafat, Diafat beat Dekkers twice. One of many examples
@dorzey100 its the oldest type of fighting,wrestling and grabbing is more natural than striking.Of course wrestling isnt a streetfight but having spent part of my teens wrestling in the states I can tell you that good wrestlers are fighters in every sense of the word in terms of heart,mental toughness,resislience ,athleticism and agression.Its why they transition so well to mma.
@scarred10 yer i fully understand that, i been doing a bit of wrestling, its a sport u need all the attributes to be succesful in any sport, i jus makin the point like with ufc point of view wer the wrestlers come and cant mix it punchin and kickin, so they wrestle and hold a guy against the cage or pin him to the floor for 15mins, aint reali a fight
@scarred10 There is actually a lot of wrestling in actual Muay Thai. Not freestyle but pretty much greco with knees and elbows. The Thai's because they work on grappling young and wrestlers who do it from a young age gain the advantage of core strength in a lot of fights whether it be kickboxing, mma, or muay thai.
in a stand up fight sure a thai fighter would destroy an mma fighter, because that is all they do
i just believe it is a superior sport because mma fighters are simply more versatile and have a much greater range of abilities than MT fighers. it is a MORE COMPLETE FORM OF FIGHTING, you cant argue that!!!!!
u also have to remember that MT has been around for much longer, when mma develops too, mma fighters will be just as technical and have just as much heart
@M90LX I think MMA fighters will never be as god as MT in Stand up, but they are better in grabbling, but will never be as god as BBJ, thats cause MT, and BBJ focus on those area. The only think I think isn't god in MMA i that you can't use knee to a downed opponent or Knees when opponent tries Takedown I think, they should make it more free again. ( Sorry for not very god english)
@M90LX you can see thai fighters that weight 55kg having more striking power than a heavyweight ufc champion and this because of much superior technique dont forget that muay thai is around for hundred of centuries at least...you cannot even compare the art of muay thai with mma.in my opinion of course
@lazy702622 they used to defend their country before the age of iron.at the age of iron they used swords combined with muay boran(krabbi krabong) thats why this martial art is called ancient.i believe that someone from thailand could help us with more accurate and historically correct information.i have some books here that i bought from thailand i ll check them for more info and i ll post again.hundreds of centuries i was exagurating because my english isnt that good...
@M90LX U r ignorant my friend. Noone in MMA has a true Muay thai game.. Just becuz he can throw a round house kick and throw an elbow time to time doesnt make you a Nak Muay. No heart in MMA (except for a select few). There is no training you always see guys get gassed after 2 rounds. In muay thai, you train like nothin you can ever think of.. there is no getting tired
The power that real Nak Muays possess would crumble ANY MMA fighter. Someday you will see.
i tottaly agree with you.probably people know more commercialized fighters like buakaw etc and ignore muay thai legends like apidej depitat samart samkor sakmongol koban namphon namkabuan sagat dieselnoi orono etc...
He was just unbelievable! Definitely in the top ten fighters of all time ever.

@dirtbagwhitetrash the thai wrestling isnt very effective in mma because its too upright,everything in thai is too upright for mma.
scarred10 5 months ago
@scarred10 obviously modifications have to be made but its still a good base if you cant train straight mma or just wanna transition

@M90LX No your wrong. Far more technique in Muaythai. Training is much harder and more disciplined.

@oMindoMagiciano
in mma u gotta learn much more and its a more complete form of fighting.
muay thai is good for the STAND UP aspect of mma.....but if u know nothing else u r simply not a complete fighter.
