i really wouldnt gte involved with grappling in a street fight.

 

Thats a nice theory unfortunatly You dont always have that option, most attackers close distance if they dont want to trade with you, and thats assuming they didint grab you by suprise or behind or something.

yeah i know what you mean, but by choice i wouldnt wanna go to the floor.

 

You would if you are a grappler :)

 

And yes many martial arts do full contact, if you come out from your ring MTfighter, then you willl see what I mean

i am a grappler :P ok not a very good one and im pretty damn small but still IMO its better to stay on your feet and say give them a good punch then roll on the floor where your very vulnerable to say someone who is a full foot taller (im only 5 2"). :)

Hmm.....at medium range and long range the striker has the advantage, at close range the grappler has the advantage, as simple as that, the rest is upto who has better footwork, which is taught well in all styles [almost]

Muay Thai interests me because it is such an agressive art. I'm pretty sure it's "full contact", or as close as you can get.

 

I'm also jealous of their strong kicks (I'm 5'2" like Mike), and wonder if maybe some of their training methods would help me increase power. However, MT looks pretty brutal on the body, and I don't need any more injuries :dead:
