judoguy Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Here is an interesting topic. If someone had one year of muay thai, boxing, wrestling, and jiu-jitsu training with a top notch team like team Quest or Militech would they be able to beat someone with 10 years of hardcore Kyokushinkai, judo, and jujitsu training. I'm only going to ask you once... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJS Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 proabably not....9 years is a huge Gap. Kyokushin and Judo have a big emphasis on conditioning too so that would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judoguy Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 Ok so maybe that was a little too large a gap in training. Hey TJS weren't you doing krav maga before? What happend? I'm only going to ask you once... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judoguy Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 So what is the real deal with krav maga? Will it give you some real skills or what? I ask because I'm thinking about taking it up but I don't know if it's all hollywood hype or not. I'm only going to ask you once... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJS Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 It's good for Street self defense. Gives you a good basic skills in standup strking and some of the weapon defenses are good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karate_woman Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I agree the gap is too large. It also depends on the quality of training the traditional martial artist received, how much they trained, etc. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. -Lao-Tse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bama Crimson Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Depends on training methods. I am more convinced that the reason boxing and MT have done so well as opposed to Karate in MMA is because of training methods more than technique.It all depends on how hard the training was, but would say 10 vs 1 year is no real match. 10 years wins for sure, especially if the conditioning is at the same approximate level.
