Infrazael Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 OK, I do CLF. But I have ungarnered respect for Muay Thai as well. . . . I love both arts. However, I've never sparred against a Thai boxer before, although I REALLY want to, to test my limits against one of the most brutal forms of MA. CLF to me is extremely brutal as well, with all that damned conditioning we do, and I would hardly call the MT shin roundhouse stronger than our Sao Choy forearm KO strikes. So, if there are CLF or MT fighters on here who has fought against each respective style, please post and tell me of the results, how it went, what you did etc. Peace.
SevenStar Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 are you saying that you can hit me with your forearm harder than I can kick you with my leg?
SevenStar Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 I'm not sure about seattle, but if you have a few spare hours, there is a wing tsun school in bellingham that also teaches muay thai.
fangshi Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 They are both strong powerful arts . As to which one is better , well that is a bit in the eye of the beholder . I have spared against people who have trained in both . Not sure about the roundhouse vs forearm comment . Took a good solid roundhouse by an experienced Muay Thai fighter in the ribs once . If someone can throw a forearm strike harder than that I want to see it ( done on some else LOL ). We are not so much individual beings as individual points of perception within one immense being.
Infrazael Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 Meh, I've never been on the recieving end of a Thai roundhouse, but I have been from a Sao Choy (giant haymaker forearm bash). IT HURTS. No again like I said, I never said CLF was "better" than Muay Thai in any way.
Infrazael Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 I don't have a car, nor a license for that matter. But when I do get a car/license tho, I'll definitely try to make it if possible. So you guys learn WC and MT??? Interesting mix.
Infrazael Posted March 9, 2005 Author Posted March 9, 2005 Another thing. I never meant this to be a MT vs. CLF thread. . .... I was just asking if someone who does one of the respective styles have sparred against the other, and how that went.
