In your opinion what is the best combat sport mma , muay thai or kickboxing?

[mando22]

so basically mma is considered of striking, grappling and wrestling muay thai and kickboxing are based on striking only muay thai allow knees and elbows but kickboxing only punches and kicks so what do you think

if you have any experience or stories about combat sports be open to share them

I would say MMA
my fiance was former MMA fighter with 10 years worth of experience
we would watch MMA games n go to some when we have chance to do so, we also do watch other fighting styles
from what I personally noticed MMA seems to be the most brutal n tougher to me so if I was asked to pick which is best I would pick MMA for various reasons:
first for its versatility cuz incorporates techniques n strategies from many martial arts disciplines
second for its realistic training, the training includes full contact sparring n live drilling, it matches the real life intensity of combats n not just based on performing aesthetic movements
not to mention the mindset of an MMA fighter is a strategic mindset, it isn't only about getting into fight but about adapting to analyze their opponents strengths n weaknesses n changing their tactics accordingly
in my opinion MMA is strongest combat sports

[mando22]

I think MMA is the best I started kickboxing and moved to MMA after 2 months when I got in a sparring in my gym with a MMA fighter it was just striking and it was really a hell fight I almost wasn't able to hit him his hits and stamina and power are really good so I moved to mma
and as you said it is more realistic despite it have some illegal hits that aren't in the real world but it is for safety forsure

[laly520]

yes I agree with u
sometimes my heart can't take it when I watch MMA games n I be thinking one could seriously die

[mando22]

I don't think so usually they have a weight division and also amateur and pro division if the refree saw that the fighter can't defend himself he will end the fight immediately and the most serious or dangerous areas like crotch , throat and behind the head are not allowed not be hit so it's safe and amateur has more protection gears

[laly520]

I remember watching online some of fighters who died during it
since then I began to feel really concerned about their safety
n yes I am aware of all the rules n safety measurements

[mando22]

some stupid organisation doesn't do those things that's why you may saw people day but it is very rarely to see a fighter die in big organisations such as ufc and one championship
also do you mind if I pm you wanna ask some more questions

[laly520]

I'm biased there's an admission , I'm in Thailand , its just incredible what they do with muay Thai , on so very many levels at every single age , really brilliant sport.

[mando22]

so what do they do in Thailand in muay thai does it have any different between muay thai in Thailand andany country else

[molonski2]

It would have the save basis , its how they use the training across all genders and age brackets , its everywhere.
