it's so funny whenever some huge bodybuilder shows up for our muay thai class they always think their size is an advantage but in sparring i show them it's really not (i am 5'7). i never hold back and when the round is over they wont be able to train legs for a week. i love to put them into their place. they are always weak and slow
I torture them with my low kicks and they don't even hit me once lmao
Good morning sanjeet
good mornings sir
In a real fight they'd just eat a knee, punch, or kick and truck you if you weren't being careful.
>manlet "asserts dominance" over people with no fighting experience
>will probably shit himself if he gets paired with someone equally skilled 3 heads taller
Tale as old as time itself.
yep, to no ones surprise very many people involved in martial arts are deeply insecure gays
I only did no-GI BJJ, that seemed to filter out the worst but there was that one spastic and dangerous retard, luckily the trainer always called it out and gave them a single chance to fix their act or get out
>them
make sure not to assume "their" gender too much anon, that wouldn't be good sparring etiquette
Are you a woman? If you're a man, there are no excuses—you either learn how to fight or you die.
No, you use your fucking head as a man or you die. Don't pick fights for no goddamn reason and if given the opportunity to deescelate, you do it.
Dumbasses who think some arbitrary level of strength or martial arts skill means they can just get into fights don't live very long.
Picrel.
>No, you use your fucking head as a man or you die.
So fly to Burma and learn Lethwei. Got it.
lmao you're really a woman
>"At least... I was a real man...."
>*chokes on own blood*
Exactly. Sparring someone bigger and taller than you with equal skill is a nightmare.
>Sparring someone bigger and taller than you with equal skill is a nightmare.
It's my preference. I always pick the biggest dude who's close to my skill level. I nearly always come out worse for wear but it's a great learning experience. Mind you it's pointless to pick someone much bigger AND better than you because you'll just get obliterated and not really learn anything from it apart from maybe not doing it anymore.
Also traditional muay thai classes never (very rarely for professionals) go hard in sparring. If you were doing that at the gym I go to, you'd get kicked out, you larper.
we always spar hard in the netherlands
Oh yeah, that's why. It's probably some kind of Dutch kickboxing/Muay Thai hybrid gym then.
based arabs
Takbir!
And yes it was always arabs. They have the worst cases of small man syndrome
>we suffer from severe brain damage in the netherlands
Yeah we know
What if the bodybuilder had a gun?
Who cares retard
Yes I like making up imaginary scenarios in my head where I epic btfo men bigger and stronger than myself and post about it on IST to cope with my crippling insecurities of being a little guy too
So you like beating up guys who don't fight? Good for you I guess.
What I do know is this. A muscular fit body will put you in a good position for a combat sport because you can focus almost entirely on the skill aspect & actually getting good without a weak body hindering you. Imagine being new to a Muay Thai class & also having an untrained body, that's going to take even more work
>So you like beating up guys who don't fight? Good for you I guess.
lanklets never hesitate to praise someone who picks a fight with someone shorter than them, but always use these cute little copes when the reverse happens. the only thing more fragile than a lanklet's bones is their ego
Weird manlet dyel larp. This would never be allowed to happen, and if you think this sounds realistic you’ve never trained Muay Thai, or any martial art / fighting style for that matter
Muay thai fags cant compete with boxers simple as
Boxing bros don't even have strikes below the belt. How are you gonna defend anything there?
in real life you just trowh a chair to them and start punching their head no crazy mma stuff
Okay, so the muay thai guy can do those as well. Was the guy I was responding to talking about competition or real life?
A boxer wouldn't fight in a sanctioned Muay Thai match. So yes the only possible implication is real life.
Okay, so then it's marginally better to know kicks, knees, and kick/knee defense than to not know it. How is this in doubt?
I disagree. Being able to throw a solid punch and defending yourself while staying balanced on your feet and mobile is the most important. You aren't going to do fancy shit. Fuck up that kick you are throwing off your balance, or the opponent can catch it and do a myriad of gruesome things that would be banned in a Muay Thai competition fight.
>You aren't going to do fancy shit. Fuck up that kick you are throwing off your balance
I don't get why you boxers think kicks are fancy. A normal rear kick to the thigh is one of the most basic moves people learn on day 1. It's not very slow and doesn't throw you off balance too hard. It'd be about as telegraphed/slow as a right hook. Front kicks are even easier to throw, especially quickly and without losing balance.
>A more complete toolkit is better than a less complete one
>No this one tool is the most important
What the fuck are you even arguing with?
>A leg kick is fancy.
You've never been in a fight and your leg is getting folded from beneath you the moment you put weight on it to throw a punch.
>You've never been in a fight and your leg is getting folded from beneath you the moment you put weight on it to throw a punch.
Doesn't have to be a rear kick that cripples someone's leg. A MT fighter can just front kick someone's balls in a street fight (not allowed in Muay Thai Pro fights).
See
in real life you get a blunt or sharp object to your head retard
In real life you get sucker punched, shot, or stabbed retard.
Okay, read the post I was replying to. What does this have to do with martial arts style at all?
Samart payakaroon was WBC super bantamweight champ. 23 fights, 21 wins, 12 KOs as a pro boxer. 200 wins 48 losses including 4 division lumpinee champ in muay thai
I swear to god boxers are the biggest retards on the planet. I just hope this is bait but I know for a fact boxers believe this shit. No defense against leg kicks, no defense against kicks in general, they just bring their hands down and get popped in the head. I don't think there has ever been an instance where a boxer beat a kickboxer of any kind where kicks are allowed, if I'm wrong I would love to see it.
>guy with experience in martial arts beats guys with no experience
>thinks is something good or special
>feels proud about himself
Sad!
>the bodybuilder is is taller than the fighter lmao.
Remember that bodybuilding is 99 percent angles and lighting.
After putting clothes on, they are just like anyone else.
All of their perfect insertions, muscle bellies, and shredded conditioning, go away after putting on a shirt.
I meet taller people with wider frames
>remember that that is actually what makes people look big in the real world
On an hourly basis when walking outside.
>im 5'7
you cant win. its physically impossible for manlets to win. sorry apoo. i dont make the rule.
>checks your kicks
Nothing personnel kid
Someone should do a martial arts versus gun
It's already been established that at a draw within 2m a knife is deadlier than a gun, so I think it would be reasonable to argue that if you know what you're doing and you're within that distance you're better off knowing how to fight than having a gun. A kick to the balls and/or a punch to the throat and you're fucked, except if you know BJJ, then you're gonna get shot lol
Brian Shaw vs Francis Ngannou in a locked empty room. Who wins?
>both naked
>nothing to use as improvised weapons
>both at their peak physical prime
>both raped and killed each other's families so they're extremely motivated in killing each other
Hard call. Probably Francis though Shaw stands a good chance if he manages to grab him.
Not fair. We all know shaw gets additional strength and speed modfiers when facing nigs
If Shaw manages to grab him quickly and pin him down it might be ogre just due to his sheer weight and strength difference, would be able to choke him out pretty quickly. Otherwise Ngannou will knock him out if he gets the chance.
>bodybuilder
Everyone knows they're fit and strong at a first glance
>fighter
Has to constantly beg people with zero combat sports experience to let them put them into a chokehold so the girl looking will know you're not just another skinnyfat weakling.
Don't cope. I've been to parties and this is exactly what you do. It's the fitness equivalent of that guy who always has a guitar on standby to play when nobody asked.
You're worse than a boxer fag.
>bodybuilder
You can't fight but everyone thinks you can and no one fucks with you.
>fighter
You can fuck anyone up but no one knows you can and you just look like a regular guy.
Life truly is a meme
