A thaiboxer outside of the ring is a dangerous thing.. Then he can use all of his Muay Thai techniques, headbutts, throws, locks and chokes. Muay Thai is a complete system, not just a ring sport.

i had my belt giving ceremony 2 sundays ago and got my yellow belt in kickboxing, i deserved it and i know i put in the work and the effort, so a grading every three months but then theres people there 2 months and they get a belt, theres this guy who started after me and he went up two belts to orange, i thought this was unfair as why should one student go up to another belt, although this gave me the impression that belts dont mean [word edited out] really and as long as I know that im training to my maximum and putting in the effort then everythingn is ok.

kickboxing isn't a martial art.. Kickboxing is just a sport that several Martial Arts compete in. So.. just like Muay Thai, the only belts are won in the ring.

It depends, maybe the belt system is implemented just for that school so the instructor can keep track. It can be a good thing, or a bad thing. I would NEVER pay a belt-testing fee that cost more than a new belt though, and that goes for ANY martial art.

From my experience so far, I feel belts can be a means by which technical progress is measured.

 

Now, do they mean *anything*....well....I guess out on the street they mean squat. I'm sure there have been high ranking individuals who have been totally waxed outside of the dojo.
