In Muay Thai, the athletes are overwhelmingly strong rather than the competition is strong. For Muay Thai fighters from Thailand, Muay Thai is an escape from poverty. From an early age, they aspire to win. A warrior rather than a player. 
I agree. However as a Muay thai fighter, Thai is slowly going to become a dying art, and that’s a good thing. The reason why Muay Thai was so powerful was because of the poverty thing you said. People had to fight in order for their families to eat. Now Thailand is becoming a better country with an improved economy. Parents no longer need to send their children off to fight to feed the family. Obviously still some families still do that because poverty doesn’t end that quickly, but in 20-30 years most people who do Muay Thai will be older or doing it for fun without the passion to become the best. Parents now in Thailand want to send their children to football clubs or other sports because they don’t want them to suffer like they did. If Muay Thai dying means poverty no more, I’m all for it

@@PishPishoto Yes! Brother BUT! The fighting stance is very much different. In boxing you're like a stone castle hard to break, because both of your arms tucked in your hips and guard your head at all times, while you move your upper body like the shape of number 8 sideways. This is what you call Infighters for example (Mike Tyson). There is another type... Outfighters They Strike and Dodge, Very clean and fast footwork, good head movements and are best at countering a punch. For example (Muhammad Ali).

Why not both. Boxing will teach you evasivness, punches and footwork and muay thai will teach you kicks, elbows and knees. Combine both and you're fast, powerful, good at dodging and slipping attacks and good foot and headwork
boxing teaches intercepting, timing and endurance. Muai Thai teaches pain tolerance, accuracy, explosiveness and relaxation skills. both teach reaction time and dodging

I wish content creators would give more credit to Muay Thai’s punches, they take up like 60-70% of most bouts yet I never see them being represented in this type of video
I don’t think people realize that boxing punches are in Muay Thai so Muay Thai is just a straight upgrade (I used to do boxing and am now doing Muay Thai)
I’d say both are good for different situations; boxing is better for a street fight if it becomes close range, and Muay Thai is better if you are at a distance before a street fight.
What boxer and what muay thai guy would be the question. A shitty MT guy who only started for 1 month vs freakin Mike Tyson or an amateur boxer vs freakin Buakaw....This is 2021, only untrained guys would have this kind of general statement like this. A boxer who also learn Muay Thai but only use his fist the fight will surely be a major problem for a pure Thai guy since he understand the danger of leg kicks and could easily neutralize the clinch attempt.

Muay Thai clinching, knees, throws, dumps, and sweeps, + Judo hip throws, foot sweeps, suplexes, submissions, chokes, and hand throws is the best street fighting grappling you can ever get (GOOD HANDS ARE IMPORTANT TOO, SO ALWAYS CROSS TRAIN WITH BOXING, ALL THE TIME)
I was trained in boxing for 4 years. I currently self train myself in it to keep my skills sharp and just recently took up formal Muay Thai training. Love to mix them.
Sadly that Muay Thai have hight durability ,stamina, and power but little bit low agility. Anyway none of martial art is perfect it all depends on user.
Sanda kung-fu for hip throws, diverse kicks, and takedown, Muay thai for its sweep, knees, and elbows Boxing for its footwork, headmovement, and its focus on defense. Also wrestling and jiu jitsu to be a beast on the ground as well
A pro boxer will win against an amateur muay thai fighter, a pro muay thai fighter will win against an amateur boxer. It's best to train every aspect of fighting, such as kicks, punches, foot work, grappling
@@outere24 their different style of boxing the traditional one or the modern one for sport because boxing is incomplete like any martial art example karate or taekwondo there is a lot of style. The traditional one was way back from ancient Rome boxus and Greek pannkration they have these types of boxing lots of techniques of hammerfist,elbow,knee ,throat crushing,wrestling,kicks. Remember streetfight is diffirent to actual ring fight. Here for example:th-cam.com/video/0vVGrMSGVsU/w-d-xo.html
I learnt both but personally i would much prefer both cuz how much utility it gives me, whether for sparring, competing or for self-defense reason, all of which does help me alot.
I prefer muay thai specially in a street fight. Busted my hand before when my opponent lower his head hit my knuckle on his skull so now most of the time I used palm strike knee and elbow which is very dense bone and effective. Muay Thai also has takedowns unlike boxing but both are very good I also used to box before after switching to muay thai.

As someone who doesnt know anything about boxing or mma, muay thai looks like a street fight, throwing anything and everything you have at the other guy, but when you watch it in slow mo, you can really see the intricacies of it
Here some of my story some alley in my town have crooks i'm very unfortunate they out numbered me but luckily i know muay thai and i sent 1 one of them in hospital and the others got jailed. 😂
Boxing seems safer in a street fight. Those kicks are risky... you may fall or it may mess up your footwork. Maintaining good balance and position and good footwork is important. But Thai boxing is still great
you forget that elbows and clinch work are a big part of muay thai. elbows are extremely effective in a street fight since they are quick and powerful (if you have training of course lol) a simple mix of both of these fighting techniques will have you set
@@waffles658 you forgot that if you only alone and you get tackle many of dudes you are done if they overpower you just hope that you will survive I seen video or news that skilled martial artist got kill and almost die in street fight remember street fight and ring fight is different the other follow rules and other doesn't.
@@username-yc3bdOh Yeah some bastard smart enough to trap you in the area with his friends so you can't run away. Wanna hear story about that as a witness on that incident??
I love both but I’m with boxing all the way personally, better stance, way better hands which is the most popular strike in a fight. I love the head movement as well. Muay Thai has most of those but idk it’s not my cup of tea
Well yes, in our martial art head movement is less important than positioning and blocks (at least my master taught me this way); besides, we have different footwork, a much more stable one, which is not necessarily better, nor worse
@MachineGunIt Better to not take a punch to the face in any part except forehead. The way your face reacts to a punch is almost purely genetics and you can't really condition your way out of a soft chin to an extent. Maybe the initial conditioning of getting used to the pain and shock of it and neck training to keep the head attached? The rest would just be how you're built. Also it's just not good for your health and for your mind to be trying to tank hits to the face so might as well train positioning and head movement, mainly pulls, slips and entering clinch and general evasion from a high standup position.
Mixing both affectively is a f’n weapon i swear…

Muy Thai for sure but I’ve always thought the combination of boxing and wing chun would be deadly af
How about Muay Thai, boxing, and Wing Chun together?
Both. Be deadly fighter that's all it matters 💪

Muay Thai objectively better martial art, but the sweet science has a special place in my heart.
To be honest Muay Thai, I enjoy how it is a mixture of kicking and punching.Also I do it and find it a fun martial art.
Me to I like how it was more defense against boxing 🥊 it’s fun asf
And I don’t like high kicks low kicks are easy and they feel great to hit with and especially the shin
That spinning elbow was sus 😂
I wish content creators would give more credit to Muay Thai’s punches, they take up like 60-70% of most bouts yet I never see them being represented in this type of video
Facts
probably not enough research into the martial art lmao
bro u good at every Martial art other than muay Thai
Muay thai and jiu jitsu is the way to go
It's kicboxing and judo for me
Muaythai is way powerfull than kickboxing and effective in an actual fight.
@@-fayisvv you're right though, but if if the space is too small I'll just use boxing to the mt fighter
But the knees and elbows would be dangerous for me as well, I can use my knees and elbows also if its a street fight or something
@@mrchill9557 correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t kickboxing use knees now?
As a person who has some experience in both, you should always be light on the feet and flat footed when you strike
I don’t think people realize that boxing punches are in Muay Thai so Muay Thai is just a straight upgrade (I used to do boxing and am now doing Muay Thai)
I’d say both are good for different situations; boxing is better for a street fight if it becomes close range, and Muay Thai is better if you are at a distance before a street fight.
A boxer would loose to an muay thai fighter 9/10 in a actual fight
What boxer and what muay thai guy would be the question. A shitty MT guy who only started for 1 month vs freakin Mike Tyson or an amateur boxer vs freakin Buakaw....This is 2021, only untrained guys would have this kind of general statement like this. A boxer who also learn Muay Thai but only use his fist the fight will surely be a major problem for a pure Thai guy since he understand the danger of leg kicks and could easily neutralize the clinch attempt. In this day and age, pure style vs style is dead, there's only which fighter is better
It depends on the situation
I doubt that here look this boxer can do:th-cam.com/video/0vVGrMSGVsU/w-d-xo.html
@@jaylenyaheardmeh8588 it was mma not Muay Thai he is not using Muay Thai stance it's depends on situation if a fighter act fast he would successfully defend himself just like video I send.
@@alemmesmashbird7364 nah a boxer would get destroyed by any elite wrestler,muay thai fighter,
Muay Thai is the best striking combat form imo
For MMA
Muay Thai + BJJ with a wrestlers base is the best
I mean make no mistake, you still need to know how to box to make it in MMA.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 accurate. dont underestimate angles and agility bro
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 Muay Thai has pretty good punches too, despite videos on youtube shorts/ig reels not showing it

Has anyone criticized your muay thai or boxing yet. I don't know how u do it. Keep it up Nat.
we prefer muay thai 😍😍 even i am a muay thai fighter The martial arts of eight limbs of we can se worlds most dedliest martial arts 🔥🔥
Yesss we are!!! Im a Muay Thai fighter too.
Same babyyyyyyy
Same lad, my favourite move is a right low kick, they are extremely effective and powerful, they also have the speed factor. Brutal.
I'm a Muay Thai intermediate
You can see my brother's muay thai on his channel ❣❣

Powerful punches as well on Muay thai
Нет,у боксера гораздо сильнее руки.Тайсон против Буакава=Буакава😵
bro different weight class do you even watch combat sports
Muay Thai clinching, knees, throws, dumps, and sweeps, + Judo hip throws, foot sweeps, suplexes, submissions, chokes, and hand throws is the best street fighting grappling you can ever get (GOOD HANDS ARE IMPORTANT TOO, SO ALWAYS CROSS TRAIN WITH BOXING, ALL THE TIME)
Learning both is really fun
Muay Thai definitely.
I do karate and using kicks and punchs at the samd time is the best option
muay thai + bjj is a deadly weapon
I was trained in boxing for 4 years. I currently self train myself in it to keep my skills sharp and just recently took up formal Muay Thai training. Love to mix them.
You guys know the saying, “I’d rather practice one kick ten thousand times than practice ten thousand kicks once.”? This is why
If muaythai had a good agility in and outs in a fight this will be a good show
Sadly that Muay Thai have hight durability ,stamina, and power but little bit low agility. Anyway none of martial art is perfect it all depends on user.
@@napatruangsopa7590 i think thai fighters have good vertical agility and good hip throws but lack upper body evading techniques
I chosed history, an average muay thai fighter beat a 5 times world champion kickboxer
Lol what muay thai fighters regularly get owned by kickboxers

@@vlx714 muay thai sucks and is boring. Has 0 footwork, movement or good boxing
@@unholylemonpledge9730 the history has been made fella just sit down
started it off with the most telegraphed right ive ever seen
Muay Thai + BJJ = ABSOLUTE UNIT
I use that combo.
Sanda kung-fu for hip throws, diverse kicks, and takedown,
Muay thai for its sweep, knees, and elbows
Boxing for its footwork, headmovement, and its focus on defense.
Also wrestling and jiu jitsu to be a beast on the ground as well
And Lethwei for headbutts.
You forgot clinches, punches and kicks dor Muay Thai, which are like 75% of MT 😂
A pro boxer will win against an amateur muay thai fighter, a pro muay thai fighter will win against an amateur boxer. It's best to train every aspect of fighting, such as kicks, punches, foot work, grappling
Amateur in muay thai eats a pro boxer of the same size, kicks will just be undefendable
@@Eric-pp3rr higher level boxer will still win
@@brunolovivo3942 boxers dont train to defend from kicks elbows or knees or clinch so you are incorrect lol
@@outere24 their different style of boxing the traditional one or the modern one for sport because boxing is incomplete like any martial art example karate or taekwondo there is a lot of style. The traditional one was way back from ancient Rome boxus and Greek pannkration they have these types of boxing lots of techniques of hammerfist,elbow,knee ,throat crushing,wrestling,kicks. Remember streetfight is diffirent to actual ring fight. Here for example:th-cam.com/video/0vVGrMSGVsU/w-d-xo.html
@a lemme smash bird hmm thanks for the info im gonna start muay thai next month
I learnt both but personally i would much prefer both cuz how much utility it gives me, whether for sparring, competing or for self-defense reason, all of which does help me alot.
Lol he hits like a noob, the body shots had me lmfao

I prefer muay thai specially in a street fight. Busted my hand before when my opponent lower his head hit my knuckle on his skull so now most of the time I used palm strike knee and elbow which is very dense bone and effective. Muay Thai also has takedowns unlike boxing but both are very good I also used to box before after switching to muay thai.
Dar patadas en una pelea callejera es peligroso
@@AdivinaAdivinador2149 depiende de la patada y dónde éstas peleando, un low kick no es muy peligroso, y si estas peleando en césped seco, no hay mucho riesgo de caerse si sabes dar patadas bien. Adémas, el Muay Thai también tiene puñetazos, golpes de codo y de rodilla y clinch, estos no son peligrosos
Weak in the F'N knees when sonny boy here tries to box 🤣🤣👀💀💀
As someone who doesnt know anything about boxing or mma, muay thai looks like a street fight, throwing anything and everything you have at the other guy, but when you watch it in slow mo, you can really see the intricacies of it
Both are important if you mix them up well you will be a ruthless killing machine
Here some of my story some alley in my town have crooks i'm very unfortunate they out numbered me but luckily i know muay thai and i sent 1 one of them in hospital and the others got jailed. 😂
Dude, quit the lying
Both of them is good but both of them combined its on another level
yep… I’m gonna learn both. it’s official
Muay thai is some batman shit wtf
I did Muay Thai before it was so fun and a killer workout but I dislocated my knee so I’m sticking to boxing but sometimes I still kick
Muay Thai: Limbs are registered weapons
Honestly combine both you get lethal combos and a powerful style
Im doing muay thai and i recommend so much for any person who want to do box and didnt found
I LIKE MUAY THAI BECAUSE IT TEACHES SELF DISCIPLINE AND ALSO TEACHES WHEN AND WHERE TO ATTACK
He was throwing the blows badly when doing the boxing demonstration
I think it depends on what feels natural when squared up
Yep Muay Thai used all of body (great weapon)
Forgot to add thai clinch
Each one of these style has a piece of the puzzle of movements learning each of em strengthen the other
I love his boxing combinations is just too nice
If you mix them together, oof to everybody..
Boxing seems safer in a street fight. Those kicks are risky... you may fall or it may mess up your footwork. Maintaining good balance and position and good footwork is important. But Thai boxing is still great
you forget that elbows and clinch work are a big part of muay thai. elbows are extremely effective in a street fight since they are quick and powerful (if you have training of course lol) a simple mix of both of these fighting techniques will have you set
@@waffles658 you forgot that if you only alone and you get tackle many of dudes you are done if they overpower you just hope that you will survive I seen video or news that skilled martial artist got kill and almost die in street fight remember street fight and ring fight is different the other follow rules and other doesn't.
@@alemmesmashbird7364
how is that relevant
it’s like saying running fast isn’t important because cars exist
@@username-yc3bdOh Yeah some bastard smart enough to trap you in the area with his friends so you can't run away. Wanna hear story about that as a witness on that incident??
I always use elbow/knee when my friend want to fight me and when I use elbow he give up 😂
They’re both useful, I’ll prefer to learn both
Baukaw Benchamek the king of Mauy thai uses boxing and Mauy thai and it always puts ahead of his opponents
Imagine learning all of this and the opponent just pulls out a gun.
This guy most be new, zero defence 0 power
Shorts never fail to entertain me I can scroll for so long 8)
You improved a lot
"powerful leg kicks"
kicks the bag lightly
OP stand up fighter: leg kicks, heavy hands, footwork, knees and elbows...... so Muay Thai
I love both but I’m with boxing all the way personally, better stance, way better hands which is the most popular strike in a fight. I love the head movement as well. Muay Thai has most of those but idk it’s not my cup of tea
Well yes, in our martial art head movement is less important than positioning and blocks (at least my master taught me this way); besides, we have different footwork, a much more stable one, which is not necessarily better, nor worse
@@knuckles1546 that's awesome
Better stance isn’t true imo, the boxing stance is very vulnerable to low kicks and single leg takedowns
@MachineGunIt Better to not take a punch to the face in any part except forehead. The way your face reacts to a punch is almost purely genetics and you can't really condition your way out of a soft chin to an extent. Maybe the initial conditioning of getting used to the pain and shock of it and neck training to keep the head attached? The rest would just be how you're built.
Also it's just not good for your health and for your mind to be trying to tank hits to the face so might as well train positioning and head movement, mainly pulls, slips and entering clinch and general evasion from a high standup position.
Spinning elbow footwork gave my muay thai aids. I now train the kwon doe😭😭💀
I just try to take what I like from everywhere and try to train regularly (can't really do it all the time though)
