Taekwondo vs Muay Thai Underground Street Fight Knock out
Mixed style fights do not always say a lot about each martial art, but it is more about the skill of the fighter him/her self, and when a fighter from a certain style wins a fight against another martial art, it does not mean that a style is better than another.
Fighters commitment and hard work can give a wonderful image about the martial art.
We have posted fights before about Taekwondo against Muay Thai, but all of them were in the ring, but this underground fight here is done in the street.
The tension in the beginning of this fight can give you a feeling that the fight is going to end up by a knock out.
Both athletes are good and we can see that through their techniques, the Taekwondo fighter is using well his kicks but maybe not too effective to cause a knock down or knock out.
The Muay Thai fighter was there waiting for the right opportunity, and when he got it he just knocked his opponent out -_-
What is Muay Thai?
Muay Thai is referred to as the "art of eight limbs" or the "science of eight limbs",because it makes use of punches, kicks, elbow and knee strikes, thus using eight "points of contact", as opposed to "two points" (fists) in boxing and "four points" (hands and feet) used in other more regulated combat sports, such as kickboxing and savate.
A practitioner of Muay Thai is known as a nak Muay. Western practitioners are sometimes called nak Muay farang, meaning 'foreign boxer'.
