ramcalgary Posted April 15, 2002 Posted April 15, 2002 In my opinion besides ground fighting techniques some thai fighters tend to ignore their punching basics. Some fighters tend to reach or overextend their punches. I seems to me that because of the many weapons(elbows knees etc) a number a schools overlook the effectiveness of simple punches(jab cross hook) Honor is the most important thing a man has once you lose it it is gone forever
dafabe Posted April 15, 2002 Author Posted April 15, 2002 yes I agree, for that reason I found a school that teaches boxing as well. cheers, DAve "perfection, is something we all get closer too with training, but you will never get there and untill you accept this your mind will be limited in what you can achive"- Dave
