This is a VERY good site, with a lot of good information on Muay Thai and it's confrenatations with other stlyes/fighters. I think some People need to realize MT fighter have continously PROVEN their Stlye's effectiveness throught the 1900's. For the record I dont do MT but I respect it soo much Because they are constantly Willing to fight ANYONE, And test themselvs and their stlye. There are so many claims floating around the world from various stlyes/schools, and I respect them for actually putting theirs to the test against the best of the best. so many people are affraid to do this.
Anyways I really encourage everyone to read the whole thing, I know it's long but it's got ALOT of good information.

Well.........
It is indeed a very impressive record. And indeed any BB that thinks he/she is invicible it going to be taken down at some point.
I dont think that MT is the best art around, but I do respect its effectiveness and survivablity.
The only fight I have record of is in one of my Aikido texts. Aikido Vs MT. Aikido won. But I think this is only for one reason, the reason why ever other art is different to Aikido. Aikido is about Misdirection and redirction. If you try and fight a MT boxer with power and linearly then your going down. Thats why White Crane, Shotokan, Wado, Goju.....etc have fallen to MT.
Well there you go. |

Do you have a site with information on the Akido vs MT matches? I really would like to Read about it.
Also I dont belive MT is the best art per say but i do belive it is the most effective standup fighting style. |

| TJS, its only really a reference in the current Doshu's (Aikido Grand Master) book. Nothing to exciting, although I do hold it as a very valid source seeing as lieing as a Doshu is not a good thing. |
