muay thai vs kungfu

[Mookjong5]

Wing Chun Kung Fu is the bomb. I think this is the best fighting system on the planet. Sure, Muay Thai is a great ring sport but outside the ring, it's whole new ball game. The shin kick works great in the ring because if you miss the referee stops you. If you miss on the street, oh no. A good side kick at the knees provides a good defense against it keeping the Thai Fighter off balance. Wing Chun is a street oriented martial art while Thai Boxing is a sport. Don't get me wrong here, it's the practicioner that determines their fate. But Bruce Lee used Wing Chun basics to form his defense. When you are young, Thai Boxing is very attractive. What happens when you start to age, I think you sort of change your way of thinking and realize that brute force won't always win.


IF WAR IS HELL, TAKE A BETTER PITCHFORK THAN THE DEVIL

I have yet to see a Wing Chun practitioner that is good at anything but a useless game of patta-cake.

Slappy slap slap slap. Limp Wristed bunch, aren't they?

Mookjong5!!!

Wow! I havnt read this much bullshit in a long time, lol....


"...I think this is the best fighting system on the planet..."

Wing Tsun is for women! Nah seriously though, at least you think it is and maybe a guy who is strong and really fit and what not can use it very well to defend himself.


"...Muay Thai is a great ring sport but outside the ring..."

its still as formidable inside or outside the ring, I know this for a fact. I dont know what your idea of Muay Thai is but you sure as hell show us that you know jack shit about it.

"...A good side kick at the knees provides a good defense against it keeping the Thai Fighter off balance..."

Another guy who clearly has no experience fighting, a side kick to the knee, man are you joking? a fucking driving roundhouse to the knee will do way more damage when taking into consideration the stance of a muay thai fighter, commonsense tells ya that dude


"...When you are young, Thai Boxing is very attractive. What happens when you start to age, I think you sort of change your way of thinking and realize that brute force won't always win..."

mate who the hell are you??? haha, this is a joke right, you clearly know shit about Muay Thai or Muay Chao Chur. there are many older practitioners, younger ones tend to fight competitively as when your young its better, when you're old training in Muay Thai is no problem, master sken, master toddy etc etc, my trainers, dude shut up you know not what you speak... where do you get all this information from and what bloody age are you and how long have you been studying martial arts for?

Mate I am 27 years old and have been doing Thai Boxing for almost 7 years, I am planning on fighting professionally very soon and have no plans to stop training in Muay Thai when i get older, maybe stop fighting when I reach 33 or 35 but training not until I am in a wheel chair buddy!

sorry to sound annoyed but its these kinds of comments that piss me off, complete ignorance, bruce lee studied Muay Thai, western boxing and wing chun! JKD is basicly a mixture of all 3 and maybe more that I am not aware of.

Muay Thai is very effective in a street situation, mate if I was you I'd fear more the ring fighter than the average joe bloggs on the street who decides to start a fight with ya, really, take my word for it, any trained ring fighter will dominate any one on one street fight, even 2 on oine maybe even 3 on one if the dickwabs are that pissed, whats your idea of a street fight, some skinny junked up faggot holdin you up looking to score a buck to buy his herion... pfft!!! man what fucking planet you on? Street fighters are fucking dick heads usually who cant fight and have no control whatsoever so even if you do beat them up its no achievment, believe me, any knob end with enough balls could beat up someone who isnt trained! beer guts, bad cardo fitness, no strength and 9 times out of 10 they are drunk whichg makes it even easier.... dude a street fighter neither scares me or gives me the heebie geebies!

I can garuantee that even if you know a lot of wing chun and one night you and your mate who is also trained in wing chun are walking home and 3 big ugly mean looking dudes jump out, sober, angry and with fucking crazy looks on their faces, you know the type, the British football hooligan type, mate I am talking serious guys who will cut you up as quick as they'd look at ya, guys who'd scare the shit out of ya cos these guys have served time before for cutting someone maybe even killing someone in the past, these guys are fucking serious and will go through anything if it gets in their way, would you do your fancy wing chun on them? I fucking doubt it big guy! I reckon you'd piss yer pants then turn and run, running is the best form of defense cos at least you know you can run quicker than them.... if you cant run then pray to god you dont get cut on your face cos no amount of martial arts will prepare you for that experience in life, and that is reality mate none of this bullshit crap you'd get taught in some martial arts class by a "sensie" or whatever, I mean say what you want bro, like I know you'd simply do a hairy kairy followed by a mountain kills the water rushing through the cliff face move followed with a super duper flying kick to the head then youd grab the nasty vermin by the ears and head butt him but you'd probably use... oh hang on, forget that you'd use the secret killing touch, the death touch then you kill them all and skip merilly home with you friend holding his hand! I wish I was a shalion monk! those sexy balding heads and stuff, looks real mean and stuff.

Wing Chun?

I have heard little of this art but that it was one of the arts Bruce Lee practiced. Personally I believe that Muay Thai Would beat out any art out there. I only say this because I have that sense of pride in that which I was trained in. Remind me not to get on your bad side S. Anucha. You're a freaking tiger waiting to strike.

[Serrada]

All I can say about Wing Chung is I practiced Ed Parker’s Kempo Karate and Shotokan for years and received black belts in both. I moved and the only reputable school I could find was a Wing Chun school. I was not a happy camper about starting from the beginning or doing a Chinese MA. I had heard of the instructor in magazines though. I studied Wing Chun under William Cheung in Australia for a couple of years until my parents moved back to the US. He took me from being a child to a master in MA in a very short time. IMHO though it’s hard to find a good instructor that teaches Traditional Wing Chun vs. Modified Wing Chun. That’s why I know teach and practice Filipino MA.

You can learn the whole Wing Chun system in a short period of time. It is typically a throw it in your face martial art because of it’s history to train the Hons ,in short period of time, in china to defeat the dynasties worriers who were trained in classical animal styles. Wing Chun is a more comprehensive art than Muay Thai for street self defense and weapons.

The important thing here is it’s up to you to practice. On the other hand the Muay Thai schools I’ve been to make you practice, practice, practice, practice. IMHO Wing Chun is a better art if you’re willing to do the practice and do full contact sparring. If you’re not going to practice go to your Muay Thai school every Tuesday and Thursday for eight years and you’ll get there.

S. Anucha,
What would you use if the same 3 guys jumped in front of you? MT? If you were smart, you'd piss your pants and run away too.

[S.Anucha]

fullcircle

exactly what i said, the smartest thing to do is run away if you can if not then, as I have said before, grab one of the fxxkers, pound him and keep him in front so as when the other dickwabs are kicking you at least they are kicking their buddy and you are at least getting one of them, street tactics!!! If there is more than 2 of them just grab one, preferably the biggest and hit the deck with him in front, bite him, punch his head, whack his head, of the ground elbow him, basicly try and do to him what the other guys are trying to do to you it annoys me when getting jumped by a group (those days are long gone) and those techniques are the most effective that i know of,

so its :

1. Run away if you can

2. if you cannot run then grab the biggest one and hit the deck with him, try to beat the living crap out of him while using him as a protective tool cos the chances of you hammering 3 or more guys at the same time is highly unlikely, unless of course they are totally pissed, kids or just plain stupid.

hahaha

hmmm.... I hope my insightful lesson to the art of streetfighting has been educational.

lol

....yes this has happend to me, lol, I mean it is funny now but at the time if I could have done I would have run like Linfred Christie!!! and many times i have ran away, remember Monty Python? "runaway runaway"

I too have seen the Shaolin Monks, live and in person... They were extremely talented and acrobatic, but that's not fighting. After their demonstrations, I met with some of the Monks who performed feats of strength... A 5'3" monk had me try and push him, which I couldn't do because his base was so strong. The key here is that I was pushing at his upper body, while his lower body was rooted. I asked if I could use my technique and proceeded with a single-leg take down: drop on your knees, grab an ankle and drive forward with your shoulder... He started to smile as I sat him down.

If this is true, and not just more internet blather, then you truly are the biggest d-bag in the world!

No. But I've tried DSL. It's such a rush!

Running

You certainly do alot of running S. Anucha. Maybe it's not such a bad idea to run. It's better to be a live chicken than a dead duck that's what I always say, not calling you a chicken of course. Personally my pride will not let me run. That is my curse.
