I agree with yella.... They probably brought in shitty MT guys to fight...
Back home in Hong Kong I was able to watch a sanda championship...
Most of these fighters were very one dimensional....
I know that they train in both striking and throws but I hardly ever saw a guy with a good balance of the two...
none of them had good boxing skills...take down techniques were sloppy ...kicks were pretty good though...
The sport is a good idea and the quality of fighters will probably get better as time goes on..
TracyKarate....I have to ask you ...why would a muai thai fighter who knows how to punch and kick effectively, fight in the clinch, use knees and elbows be worse off than a karate guy if he's attacked in the street?
What advantage does the karate guy have?
