[@iROChakri]

Muay Thai was born from the battlefield. Nowadays it’s been refined to become very technical and extremely powerful. It’s a very real deal. If you even notice nowadays, most stand up styles just look like Muay thai more than their traditional forms seen on their old footage.

However, please tell me your point. Do you want to say that Thai side put weak fighters against Nakamura or Fujihira? Correct? But that's not something to comment at least from my side. It was decision of Muay Thai who challenged Kyokushin. I don't think Nakamura had privilege to pick up adversaries out of group of Thai fighters. My point, it would be much more fair to describe overall match 1964 results in video, instead of showing how yellow belt junior student fights against Thai. But it's up to the owner of channel.

such a sad fate from all the top standing martial arts, muay thai still standing strong meanwhile karate and tkd watered down to ballet lmao

[@iROChakri]

Actually Karate and TKD didnt get watered down, they buffed up by learning from Muay thai. Look at Karate and TKD old footage, they couldn't fight for sh*t because they were too fancy 😂

[@Tungsten-le1wy]

in kyokushin it's imposible to develop good boxing fundamentals. the training and competition is too unrealistic and ridículous, if you put a kyoukushin black belt that only do kyokushin in a boxing ring against someone with 6 months of boxing training the kyokushinn will get destroyed, kyokushin is just a waste of time,

[@rudranamulnasca]

Support you support muaythai 🥰🥰🥰

[@Tungsten-le1wy]

kyokushin always lose in muay thai that's why it is rare to see a kyokushin guy fight under muay thai rules they are so afraid.

[@busblu1475]

The latest fights were MMA vs Muay Thai. No longer traditional (ineffective) Karate techniques.

[@asamiyashin444]

Muay thai is traditional, even older than karate. And the last fight sucks. They are the typical modern fighters who learn quickly and wrongly. I prefer the older fights. They were more solid because they trained traditional stuff and mastered the basics before learning other advanced things.

​​@@asamiyashin444Jiu Jitsu are tradicional too many old techniques in jiu jitsu lol peoole doesn't know whay say old not always means ineffetive, Wrestling it's too Old too.

@@asamiyashin444 Muay Thai is NOT older than Karate. Muay Thai however is older THAN Kyokushin.

[@kenaultman7499]

Mura should have never been given the nod on that fight.

[@technochemservices2855]

Fighting a kyokushin fighter without face punches means you are dead already!

[@diosdadoapias]

The karate gut is not fighting karate. where are the karate technique of his. the muay thai have only one kind of kick. The karate guy does not even punch good. The karate combined muay thai and karate to defeat muay thai but other karateka defeated muay thai by karate style. Perhaps the karate guy must lost in order that Japanese kickboxing will be invented by him.

Then you won't like the fact that the first Karate/Muay Thai challenge issued to the Japanese by the Thais in 1963 was won by Karate 2:1.

With the full Muay Thai rule the karate fighter would not have lasted a single round.no elbow no clinch

[@child_of_Orion]

Could be so, but lets add Kyokushin rules with bare knuckles, plus Kyokushin includes elbows and knees.

[@iROChakri]

@@child_of_Orion Muay thai can fight with bare knuckles easily. That's real Muay Thai before its too brutal and killing, so they started using gloves. Funny that actually Kyokushin is just Mua Thai Japanese. You can see that Kyokushin looks more like Muay thai than their other traditional Karate styles.

[@child_of_Orion]

@@iROChakri It's true that Kyokushin is way different than the other karate styles and overall looks like the Muay Thai. The sad thing is that in order to not appear so savage, as it was and is still practiced with bare knuckles, the founder (Oyama) decided to remove the face punches and elbows. And since it is spreading as sport, this sport form of Kyokushin kind of replaced the real one not for good. Otherwise, very tough style.

[@DADRB0B55]

Yes in a kickboxing game muay thai maybe stands a chance, in a real fight a karate would easily slam a thai player on concrete & hammer fist him on the ground while his head bounces of the curb.

[@willianchanrockin3952]

Muay Thai rules !

[@Romulu5]

Should be open rules - all strikes allowed. I mean - a Muay Thai fighter that can t use knees, clinch, elbows...that is not Muay Thai. Anyhow - Kyokushin is a very hard style - strong, hard, fighters. Os!
