I have practised muay thai for a few months and im sure i could use it agains a street fighter, im used at useing hands, feet , elbows and knees, and we sparre alot, full contact , why should any street fighter stand a better chance than me in a fight when I practise hardcore full contact fighting two times a week ..

Aahhh, the mythical "street fighter". Trained at the best street-fighter-ryu dojo this side of Konami...

Wouldn't another word for "street fighter" be "untrained, drunken lout"? Who else fights in public on a regular basis?

lol Taikudo.

I would love to see this "street fighter Ryu" dojo.

Like the grading syllabus.

5th Kyu - Drink 5 pints
4th Kyu - Shout Alot
3rd Kyu - Lose all your teeth
2nd Kyu - TATTOOS
1st Kyu - pass out in street.

Will post rest when I can think about the Dan grades.

Take Care

jinx dont let yourself fall into the trap of being over confident yeah its great that you spar full contact twice a week but a steeet fighter doesnt wear gloves,gum shield, groin gaurd etc and more importantly he has no rules.Remember your fighting in his ring and to his rules now!!

i think anybody can't say "yes" or "no" to this question.
it all depends about the situation, and many factors.

We have to remember, that in a street fight anything goes, since strikes can go everywhere, to a person have a weapon (a gun, knife, etc)
it also depends for example, if the street fighter has any knowledge about MA, or how good they are (the street fighter and the muay thai fighter).

Supposing, the following scenario, both have the same conditions, no weapons, same weight, etc, and the street fighting doesn't know anything about MA, i'd incline to the Muay Thai.

Muay Thai is a very effective style for street fighting, in fact, it's one of my favorites stand up styles.. it's very devastating, they show yo how to combine your hands, with elbows strikes, knees, etc, and this is very dangerous for the other person..

I agree. depending on the situation it could go either way. A grown adult can hurt anybody MA or not

Don't be ridiculous, one on one, no weapons the Thai Boxer would beat the * out of the so-called street fighter and time anywhere. Dang ppl, i dun believe u'd even ask this. Can someone who plays soccer once in a while by himself, be better than a pro who nto only practices all the time but knows far superior ways of handling the ball? Gimme a friggin break.
