𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝟭𝟮-𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗶 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗞𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗯𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗼𝗻.
Great 𝗧𝗮𝗲𝗸𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿 who defeated the great Muay Thai fighters:
Changpuek Kiatsongrit (twice), Coban Lookchaomaesaitong and many other Muay Thai fighters from Thailand and Japan.
In the second fight with Changpuek Kiatsongrit, the entire first round Manson fought in red pants, it was a reference to Changpuek Kiatsongrit fight with Rick Roufus (Rick was in red pants during the fight), but in the second round Manson changed his pants to shorts, saying that this time the fight end in the defeat of the great Muay Thai fighter. Manson won this fight by knockout.
Rick Roufus, who fought with Rob Kaman (twice), Ernesto Hoost (twice), Jérôme Le Banner, Francisco Filho, Jean-Yves Thériault, Changpuek Kiatsongrit, Marek Piotrowski and many other great kickboxers, said that Manson Gibson is the most hard opponent of all.

[@jrowlandj]

Most unorthodox and underrated striker of his generation. In his prime there was not a fighter who could discount him. They all had to take Manson seriously. One mistake and they'd be staring at the roof, or hugging the floor like Changpuek was forced to do in fight #2.

I don’t care what anyone says, this man is the greatest American kick-boxer of all time 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@flowrepins6663]

definitely one of greatest but best is benny the jet. his takedown grappling skills are great he would do well in mma if learn bjj or wrestling

[@galaxyrider1704]

@@flowrepins6663 I also find that guy pretty awe inspiring and he was definitely ahead of his time as well. I guess if he had more Thai fighting opportunities like Gibson then maybe he would win a lot too, who knows. But yeah Benny is super awesome too 😁

[@Chounubis]

Shows that - if you do prefer TKD/the more athletic and flashy styles of Kung Fu, Karate (Shotokan), etc. as Gibson did - you require, above all else, a ton of initiative, courage, and confidence, along with an extreme willingness to take and accept immense risks (spinning kicks and back fists are very dangerous both to the opponent and because they make the practitioner somewhat unbalanced and massively open to counters, but Gibson does them effortlessly and without hesitancy), in addition to being able to take a hit and keep fighting (which many of the "TKD" and Karate guys could not, save for Kyokushin practitioners). Literal inspiration and text book pioneer on how to make an explosive artform with "high risk, high reward" strikes work in a medium that is largely dominated by the more defensive, boxing centered, "low-kick punch combo and repeat" Muay Matt or Dutch styles of kickboxing (which makes Gibson a massive refresher in a medium that has long since gotten stale).

They always seem to build a kickboxer as the guys that just always got beat down by the muay Thai boxers but now there's a lot of videos I'm noticing showing up where that's not always the case the kickboxers were doing pretty darn good also I thought it was all completely one-sided but I guess not I guess it literally does depend upon the person not the style

[@dugonman8360]

There's been a lot of recreational history that seemed to have started around the early 00s about martial arts that I credit completely to the tapout mma fans. In their recreational history all martial arts were mcdojo woowoo until the unstoppable force of muai thai and bjj made all others shake in their boots. They also thought cross style combat began with the ufc. I pay them no mind. I've been told by these people that Stephen thompson, bill wallace and lyoto machida didnt use karate, but muai thai or kickboxing because karate must be ineffective dancing.

[@massdisruption3437]

@@dugonman8360 these guys must not know about real karate. I never practiced it, yet I can tell you that the guys from the sixties,seventies,eighties, and ninety’s was extremely tough to beat. I have a alternative theory on why Bjj and MTT worked in the late nineties and further on. Well in these places they don’t have a lot of estrogen chemicals in there clothes,shave cream,food,cologne,soap,plastic bottles etc. So therefore these guys from those places have way more testosterone than most Americans in the nineties onward. I remember that there used to be fights everyday up until they added the estrogen into the foods. If you look at Mexico, they put clenbuterol into there meat. There mean are lean and chiseled for the most part. In America they put bovine female hormones into the meat. If you look at those chiseled Mexican immigrants ten years later. They get more weight around there waist. Some would say that it’s better nutrition. I say it’s because there testosterone is lowered, in fighting sports you need high levels of testosterone. So these guys may have had a edge. Just a few thoughts

[@kiboma4209]

People forget why these kickboxers tend to look better, the same Muay Thai fighters being beat are fighting under international Kickboxing rules not Muay Thai ones, most Kickboxers who actually fight under Thai rules with Knees, clinches, and Elbows tend to get brutalized. Only some foreign kickboxers like Dekkers have managed to adapt to such rules and dominate in them.
