Muay Thai vs. Kickboxing: The Fight That Changed The World of Martial Arts

[@LawrenceKenshin]

Muay Thai vs. Kickboxing: "The Legendary Fight That Changed History" This bout forever changed the landscape of kickboxing, Muay Thai, and MMA in North America. You'll find no other fight that is as dramatic, with both fighters displaying tremendous heart. Welcome to striking history.

Rules that only allowed low kicks while Rick can execute all types of kicks even to the head? Well, that s a v v big advantage. However, muay Thai fighters never never give up in fight till they can't get up. Just, just low kicks, can beat a world Champ. That s muay Thai toughness.... Salute ...........

[@simonbionary11010]

@@Ngan.marianguyen It is tho. There are several forms of muay thai, all quite distinct from one another. A few examples would be Muay tae(focuses alot on the roundhouse kick. A good reference would be Samcor). Muay Koh(focuses alot on the clinch. Dieselnoi is the most decorated in this cathegory). And Muay femur(Focuses on evasive and gracious techniques such as the cartwheel kick, jumping roundhouse etc. Saenchai is the best reference for this one). Muay Matt(Focuses on boxing and strikes with the hands. Coban is a good reference). And then we have Kiatsongrit which is a muay bouk(A fighter which relentlessly keeps pushing the pace forward and gladly throw lowkicks and inside hooks etc)

I advocate that everyone who has seen this watch the full fight, available on KZbin. The commentators were massively biased in favour of Roufus, and the rules for the fight had clearly been made as to benefit him more than Kietsongkrit, yet, despite all of that and Roufus' good start, the Muai Thai fighter won by simply breaking Roufus down with leg kicks. You could tell that the Americans tried to stack the deck against the Thai fighter, so they could massage their egos and say that they ruled the world of fighting, only to have that notion broken, and Roufus' legs nearly got broken with it!

[@CHIPSSALTY]

In the past, boxing was all about a heavy blow to the head to knock out. Muay Thai introduce the idea that you can disable your enemy by attacking nearly anywhere. Chest, leg, anywhere is disabling once you hit it enough times and it becomes increasingly painful. And just because a leg kicks another leg, it doesn't mean both legs take the equal damage. Muay Thai really opened up the UFC scene we have today.

Very good video! Your view to narrate the positive aspects of fighting is incredible. Although it’s not a very sportsman-like perspective, I would like to point out that I think at 4:36 after the “superior knockdown”, after they connect Rick goes for a low kick aimed at the FACE, WHILE the Thai fighter is falling. I also wouldn’t be surprised if it connected, and it was the kick to the face and not the super man punch that broke his jaw I believe this is the reason why the low kicks, illegal stomp and illegal throw were thrown out. He really wanted to teach Rick what it meant to try something like that Thai Fighter and thereason why he continued the low kicks. He was extremely disrespected that his opponent would try something like that and decided to teach him a lesson, ingrained in his knees

[@JozefLucifugeKorzeniowski]

he clearly pulled it and it didn't even touch him. also kicks and knees to the head when a fighter is in transition are legal and they do it in muay thai all the time. while changpuek actually stomped on a completely horizontal, on the ground, roufous. which has never been legal in muay thai or kickboxing. changpuek acted shamefully in this matter, perhaps still angered by rufous breaking his jaw. not all muay thai fighters are honorable zen masters. they are human too.

Pretty sure the one who wasn't fighting who stood by his corner looked like an unfit ballerina

[@Maya_hee]

@@yaobikuni1349 I dont think they were insulting ballerinas but rather pointing out how stupid his claim sounded. They were there for a fight and they lost but he is complaining about talent as if that should have been the deciding factor for the winner like its a dance competition or something.

Both are very great fighters salute

[@06capoeirista]

By the mid nineties, we karate guys were still calling Muay Thai fighters "dirty". It was a decade later before the american karate/kickboxing community acknowledged the effectiveness of the style.
