As much as I feel bad for the bjj guy, I'm really glad because finally a high level striker isn't easily nullified by a grapler.

[@Anonymous-rz6vq]

Doesn’t nullify the fact that almost all of the time, the grappler will beat the striker, if the striker doesn’t train grappling as well.

[@KaiSecth]

@@Anonymous-rz6vq You can same the same thing for grapplers with no striking experience. Quite a few grapplers where outright just knocked out like Ronda. But I agree always best to be well rounded.

[@rastabg23]

finally i see a thai with muscle mass, i know they're the best strikers on the planet but it takes hybrid grappling/striking rule set for the thais to actually lift and put on mass. nice to see.

[@jovanleon7]

@@rastabg23 What?? you never saw Buakaw in your life??

[@rastabg23]

@@jovanleon7 hahahahah he is the reason i started fighting, i watch him before each training session. bragging and exaggerating aside just the facts so far ive broken 3 heavy bags, the metal frame broke too from the roundhouse impacts. He is that much of an inspiration. All 5 of my brothers were inspired by Buakaw as well. We all fight. Buakaw is one exception, but the reality is even buakaw is little compared to me. With clothes on you cannot tell he lifts. Thais generally look at too much muscle mass as detrimental to the art. at least the old school golden era thais do coupled with the fact that genetically, thais, like most asians, are extremely small but indeed aesthetically Buakaw is one of, if not the most built thai fighters of all time. Certainly the most popular, no doubt.

[@georgieman1910]

it all boils down to the individual - who is more aggressive, who has better technique etc. The style vs style debate was settled long ago when grapplers tossed strikers onto the mat and destroyed them (e.g. Dan Severn vs Anthony Macias). Now it's about who is more complete. Who is more adaptable. Know your enemy and know your enemy's style. The old adage still holds true: strike against a grappler and grapple against a striker. Could a pure striker get away with it against a pure grappler, it can happen and it has happened before. Those are the exceptions and not necessarily the rule. As a striker, in order to succeed in MMA, you have to know how to at least thwart the takedown attempts in order to get back up. For the grappler, you have to know how to at least strike or defend them in order to bring your opponent into your grappling range.

It's a good strategy if you can avoid the takedowns, and honestly this guys takedowns weren't good. I think he was too cautious.

Nah, he just preferred to give the attendees a better show by having him get back up for a few more minutes of fighting, rather than just kick him 4-5 times while he lays on the ground, like he did at the end.

[@somebodyintheworld5036]

@@EtherFox It's to give him better opportunities for his kick. While Alex is on the ground, he can only really kick his calfs and thighs. Since there's no weight on them, the kicks aren't gonna hurt as much when they connect. Letting his opponent get up was just a good strategy. He'd already defended a choke and defended multiple take downs, and Alex was hurt even more now than he was at the beginning. There's a low chance at the end of the fight Alex had the energy left to actually score a takedown and grapple. Meanwhile, while their both on their feet, Yodkaikaew can go for kicks to the body, kicks to the ribs, kicks to the thighs/calfs WHILE the opponent is standing up and putting weight on them, and he can even try a kick to the head for a knockout. He has much greater potential to do damage to a standing opponent with his kicks than an opponent lying down. It's not about the show, it's a sound strategy for finishing off an injured opponent while exploiting his own strengths. The ref also knows this, and decided to call the TKO once it's clear Alex was too injured to realistically put up a fight.

[@Lev0702]

Like at about 7:50 mark. Unfortunately, the front heavy stance of Alex Schild made his exposed leg too easy of a target.

Was fortunate to get to train with a Muay Thai fighter way back in the early 90's . At the time my main school was pretty much straight Karate but being a Kenpo school you could target the whole body . During one session I finally got to go up against the school "bully" as it were. He fought in the classic sideways point fighting stance so I casually reached down and twisted my shin guards so they were backwards under my GI pants and started lighting up his legs. After 2 he said "Why are you kicking my legs ??". I just said "You'll see...". After 2-3 more his leg was DONE. The average Joe just can't take them . And by 3 they start reaching down to block them . Probably a bit different now as most people have at least seen them in MMA fights but still, if you don't train to handle them they are miserable. Schild is one tough dude to take that many. "Make him stand up!" was some solid advice .

@@RoensmusicHe can kick the guys legs on the ground yes, but it doesn't do as much damage as kicking him when standing up, so the muay thai guys coach kept yelling 'stand back let him up!' so that the muay thai guy can do as much damage as possible each round. Also even just kicking a skilled grapplers legs when they are on the ground can be dangerous, because if they hook a leg from a kick, they can get a takedown/leglock with it. So the muay thai guy was really keeping his distance and being cautious. Also.. when on the feet the muay thai guy can kick the head for a KO. And since the BJJ guy had poor takedowns and weak striking, it made much more sense to keep the fight standing for as much of the round as possible.
