      ​@busyrightnow7259he never changed in the first place, look at his kick and check, plus he claims that in Muay Thai you attack/defend then get back to where you were but in wank cuck you get into the pocket and he quit muay thai because it doesn't do that... over 50% of muay thai is in pocket fighting and stepping in, and all true martial arts are about trying to get the advantage over your opponents and beat them more than they can beat you. So this man is full of shit, ill bet money that i can train someone in just boxing for a year and theyd be able to easily beat this man, an i have zero ability to teach.

      Well said ... Thai believes that are in a position of advantage far away whereas wing Chun jkd and boxing believe they are in a position of advantage in critical range close in with no reactionary gap to defend.
      Thai understands some good points like it's hard to get out of their neck clinch versus back away with wing Chun advancing ...
      But Muay Thai also drastically how to kick making it about power and knockout fights when they should be more worried about people catching the kick than anything or countering it.
      You are right.

      Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling and BJJ are some of the most effective ones because they incorporate sparring, which is an amazing way to learn more.
      But it short, yes, Muay Thai is a good self-defense sport to learn and you can always combine it with something else like wrestling.

      Muay Thai and Wing Chun are technically pretty similar to each other. Muay Thai is an altered version of martial arts made for the sports ring, more than its more practical mother style, but many of the techniques are basically the same.
      Muay Thai (Muay Boran), Silat, Kali, Shotokan karate, Kenjitsu, and Wing Chun are basically all the same. Same tree, different branches. So... Yeah, I'm not sure why people are giving him so much crap over this. He's expanding his knowledge and learning. 🤷

      I dont think he forgot about what you mentioned.
      But what he said is also true, in combat sport if you really think about it, it's about taking turns, you hit me, I hit you, but I might counter but everytime they kick most fighters reset back at the distance waiting for the next strike.
      Because they've got atleast 2 rounds left to go they need to conserve energy if they're dragging the fight out.
      Clinch rarely happens after a kick. Even if you watch baukaw, superlek and sanache, they usually clinch after a strike or after a counter.

    • @acow1385
      @acow1385 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +96

      @@hybridsouls Maybe I should have explained it better. He explicitly said that Muay Thai is more about attacking and defending from a distance.
      Muay Thai particularly emphasizes the clinch, getting in, throwing knees and elbows inside the clinch, and throwing opponents from the clinch. So to say that Muay Thai is only about fighting outside the pocket is to ignore nearly 50% of the Muay Thai arsenal.
      As for fighters taking turns, it depends on the fighter and their style. There’s counter-strikers, pressure fighters, in and out fighters etc… It’s never as simple as I hit you then you hit me.
      Every competent fighter will feint, jab, kick, etc… to put themselves into an advantageous position(as he mentioned) and attempt to keep themselves there. The problem is, no opponent will simply stay in that disadvantageous position, they’ll move out the pocket or clinch.
      That’s why it seems like they’re taking turns. Fighters will fight for the advantageous positions and throw their combinations from there in an attempt to damage their opponents, then they will lose that advantageous position as their opponent responds. If their opponent doesn’t respond, then they’ll either be knocked out, or have to shell up and simply defend until the other fighter tires out.

      @@pipicaca9125 Some fundamental basics that are similar are indeed like… the basic strikes of like... Muay Thai... The Jab, reverse, uppercut (or upper elbow), the cross (or cross elbows). There’s the basic guard position that is dramatically similar to the basic guard position of all of these styles etc etc … but, those are the fundamentals of the previously listed styles as well.
      This is what happens when we play the telephone game though... And when we play the telephone game over both generations and through migration. Same tree, different branches. It's not a matter of closeness, it's a matter of... they're literally the exact same, just different emphasis placed on different things, that eventually morphed into different training regiments, as teachers and students passed the knowledge down.
      For instance are you familiar with hubud...? It's a basic flow technique that's fundamental to these styles and is the exact same technique in each. It's all founded upon sword work, and then trained with either swords, sticks, short swords, knives, or empty hands. Then as time went on, different generations, different families as they spread and migrated put emphasis on different aspects of the very same techniques.
      Kenjutstu (sword combat) is within the same tree of techniques. Japanese sword work is the formalized and blocky version of the exact same techniques and motions as you'd find in Hubud/Sinawali from Wing Chun and Kali (eskrima). It's just done with a single sword, or with a katana and wakasashi. Etc. and if you analyze most of the Japanese styles, it's more like they knew what the starting positions were supposed to look like, and they knew what it was supposed to look like when the strike landed, but they had forgotten how to get from point A to point B. (This happens sometimes in any martial art when you try to teach someone posture and structure). This is why Japanese martial arts looks a little more stilted than other styles of martial arts.
      As an easy example explaining how these styles are actually the same (and not just similar): It's also completely identical to Muay Thai (Muay Boran) if you held two swords in your fists in the reverse grip. Picture of Muay Thai fighter, picture them holding two katanas in reverse grip, and then picture jabs, reverses, crosses/elbows which are now horizontal slashes, upper cuts/elbows which are now upper slashes, your guard which is now not just your forearms but swords against them blocking incoming strikes, spinning back fists become spinning stabs, etc etc ...
      The fact that Muay Thai came *from* this style of fighting shows evidence by things that don't make sense until you put swords in the fighters hands... Such as the rather strange hand positions at front guard where their fists are kind of bent strangely (palms facing the opponent).... This is mimicking the mechanics and look of the hand posture when you're holding swords in reverse grip in a guarded position. It's a vestige of the old style of combat that still exists within the newer version, that was altered for sports ring fighting.

      Even the tradition of the "wai khru ram Muay" "dancing" ceremony (done before a Muay Thai fight) is a perverted version of Hubud (done with swords in reverse) done in the air as a warm up and practice motion before a fight. Just watch the introduction of almost any Muay Thai fight, and you'll see them spinning their hands as part of their ceremonial dance... This just became tradition because it was a warm up practice Hubud, done before a training bout. 🤷
      But if you actually analyze some of the forms and structures of... Say, Shotokan karate you'll find some of the identical forms and drills done in Wing Chun. The exact same thing can be said for all of these styles that I've listed, because they are fundamentally the exact same. Even things like chambering a punch in Shotokan has it's roots in hip and shoulder chambers for double swords. They've just morphed over time through the generations passing it down.
      But, you probably know all of this, since you know all about them. 🤷

      The problem is the rare times less effective systems work, they are paired with a tilt.
      In the case of someone who say does BJJ and Wrestling, they can make stuff that LOOKS like less effective systems work, but they aren't exactly doing what 99% of the system fighters do.
      Even like karate fighters as a more prominent example. They tend to not spar, live for kata, and not win shit. But then, you have a few ufc guys who distinctly look "karate" while fighting. Thing is, with all the cross training etc, their karate is very different from other guy's karate. Etc.
      Even a few people who have used expressly aikido moves in fights etc, and advocate that aikido works, did so among their other training.
      I'd add in that different people, sometimes put things together differently. Or from different perspectives. You might do karate and Judo and never really make them work synergistically. You might then go to a lower level mma gym and find it doesn't really do anything for you. You might go take Aikido and it makes you mentally use your karate and Judo together well.
      The problem then, is you tell people "aikido is why I can fight, you should do aikido". But in reality when you kicked 2 guys asses, it was because you did Judo and Karate, the Aikido just happened to by the catalyst you needed to get your fight IQ to click. And anyone listening to you and taking aikido will not get the same benefits.

    I think the video would be more correctly labeled "Why I added Wing Chun style footwork to my Muay Thai." Which is a great point for a street fight just remember Muay Thai is a sport so they are looking to emphasize certain skillsets. So basically being able to stand in front of your opponent because it shows great defense and leads to a lot of exchanges for the viewers. They dont want the western boxing style Mayweathers types on their bicycles...so while it may work it's just not what they're necessarily looking for.

But then so does wing chung. Especially on the streets- with no padded gloves and bare knuckle- I might add. In a tight spot, say in a club, wing chung might serve you better than those other sports. As others have said on here, plenty of UFC champs incorporate wing chung into their armoury successfully. 💪🏾🤷🏾‍♂️✊🏾

      That's true in a way, especially if you're shorter, you can smother them so they can't throw effective strikes if you're too close for them to generate power and torque. Wing chun doesn't work, though. Just go do boxing.

      It's common though. Muay Thai and bjj don't age well. As you get older these combat sports get really hard on your body. You don't have the same reflexes and you don't have the joint strength to keep up with the younger people. What you do have is experience. And so martial arts like wing chun or taiji can be beneficial. If I still box it's only because taiji helped me spare my joints. It's old people martial arts. And if you have experience in things like Mt or bjj it definitely has its merits. His advice really isn't that bad. The goal isn't to go into the octogon with this stuff. But in real life, against drunk or inexperienced fighters, it just works. You probably won't win against a kickboxer that's 27 and high on coke who fights in illegal mobster fights in russia, but I'm not sure any martial arts would help you in that type of situation except a navy seals training. Context is key, and here we have an older gentleman teaching self defense that seems a lot more wise and rooted in real life combat than 99% of the shit you hear out there.

      I've heard several times now from people who did boxing that adding wing chun gave them extra tools and improved them as a fighter. Just get your basis in real combat sports first. There do exist good practical wing chun clubs. I was in one for a while. They did a lot of drills and light sparring. The teacher practiced two other combat arts and could really fight. But I've seen a lot of garbage on the internet. This is to extent I think a problem with Chinese martial arts where they've become ornamental and lack basis in real live combat.

Simply put the problem is if you're always trying to put yourself in a "position of advantage" as he calls it is that if your opponent has some training they will notice the fact you are simply trying to get into that "position" after every strike. They will be prepared for you to perform your first strike and counter you entering the pocket.
