HA HA HA HA,this is the funniest shit I've ever heard in martial arts.Tai Chi beat Muay Thai,you have got to be kidding.It's like Garland said,you must be fucking retarded.

It's not all about pure strength to win a fight,true,but soft flowing exercise type movements definitely isn't going to help you win when confronted by someone.

The only time Tai Chi might actually work is when someone is pissed out of their mind and can't stand still but on someone sober it most definitely won't work.

idiot

Um...I don't even give it that much credit. My hypothesis is that if I were both extremely pissed and loaded almost to the point of alchohol poisoning, I would murder a pure tai chi stylist...without using knees, elbow, or kicks, throws, whatever. (or just using kicks with a lit cigarette in my mouth) I'm willing to put it through the scientific test...if anyone wants to challenge ever in SLC, PM me and I'll give you a number. We'll meet, go out for drinks (make sure I'm good and fuckered up) and we'll have a friendly go at it. That way, I can beat the shit out of a Tai Chi guy, and have somebody to be my bitch for the rest of the night, i.e. hold my hair back whilst I vomit, drive my drunk ass around, buy the next round, AND of course, pay for a lap dance (with a "happy ending".)

All taiji is not slow. All those pretty moves are eye pokes/gouges, nerve strikes and defensive strikes--not blocks. You hit the attacking limb. Yes it takes along time to learn. So what? Its worth the trip.

it takes no skill to attack the eyes, throat, groin.

Nerve strikes are mainly bullshit, and those that do work only work, a) on somebody who has a low ass pain threshhold b) non-moving, non-fighting target 3) if hit the right way at the right angle.

Tai chi practitioners would do well to avoid fights, unless they enjoy a little ass paddling...in which case, they should head to the S&M bar where they stand a lesser chance of winding up in a hostpital room.

Fine motor skills, for the most part, are shit for combatives.

It might take no skill on a drunken louse... you seem to be an expert in that dept. If it takes no skill to land them (sez u), good! Dont practice them. I hope you dont try kicking anyone who is not also drunk and unaware in the neck without shooting them first or your next post may be in a cemetary.

You make no sense. For somebody who is supposed to be cool and collected, you sputter as much jibberish as a cracked out street walker.

[BaguaBoxer]

both

you know you guys have made some good points (cough) but um I have taken both arts and I have taken bits and pieces of each to create an effective street self defense. The knees and elbows used in Thai Boxing are effective especially when placed in nerve areas with force. I have dropped the high kicks from thai because they are to slow I can punh high faster than i can kick. Just saying evolve and borrow from both styles to get better sources

You go ahead and practice those high kicks. They seemed to work just great for Bruce Lee and Jean Claude Van Duh...

[kung-fwho?]

Take notes from cracked out street walkers

It's funny how "cracked out street walkers" tend to beat more people up than Thai boxers.

[Ironpalm]

That just tells me whose more dangerous At least they know thier limitations.

[Garland]

Okay...fine, fine, believe in your "chi" bullshit, and nerve strikes. You guys are completely fucking hopeless. I would like you guys to try and understand how skewed and non-sensical your logic is, but I won't waste any more of my time on people who probably believe they can pull off crouching tiger shit in a fight. Seriously, I hope you guys can continue to ignore reality, and never have to face a true threat, cuz you fools would find yourselves getting a ride in a white van with flashing lights with funny little tube things in your arms, and a thick collar around your neck.

where the **** did this doof come from? Seriously, if you don't know what the **** you're talking about, you should take a fucking seat and shut the **** up, m'kay.
What a fucking bunch of dolts. Show me any fucking tai chi guy, any, that can beat a thai boxer. How bout a crackhead? Can you? No? Hmmmm....what a fucking suprise. Bet none of you guys has ever even met a crackhead. You guys are retarded, do the world a favor, and never breed. (like that should be hard)

once again we have to state the obvious to the obtuse....{spoken as a red-kneck might} "Just cuz you can't do it don't mean it can't be done!"....is that better for you?
