Muay Thai and Taekwondo are stronger and weaker, and how is it compared to Chinese Kung Fu

Muay Thai is favored in that it has developed through many documented full-contact fightings. Fighters have records in the 100s, so they develop a more applicable, usable style. Someone like Samart Payakaroon of Thailand was/is probably the closest thing to the kind of national hero that you seem to mean. He was both a Muay Thai champion many times, and a WBC World Boxing champion as well.

Muay Thai can see results in the short term and focuses on actual combat, but I feel that it is a boxing method with overdrawn potential. In the later stage, the body's self-cultivation is not good, and there may be irreparable damage to the body in the later stage. Practicing boxing is not for fighting for strength. , but to protect myself, so that I can live a long and healthy life. Relatively speaking, I still prefer Chinese Kung Fu. Although it is easy to learn and difficult to master, and the effect is slow, its advantages will be reflected in the later stage.

    • I'm kinda stunned. I went back on my interest and clicked on some ONE highlight which supposedly involved one fighter using the other fighter's "pet move" against them. I played the video and just watched two people throwing crazy techniques and hitting air back and forth. I never got to the "move". Why? How did this happen that missing strikes was a "thing". It's like watching basketball highlights of "moves" where the basket is missed. Why? This seems to be a product of Technique Porn, the spread of demos and "moves" mimicked from fighters, where the actual efficacy is of no merit...until there is a Knockout. A crazy "evolution" of fighting.
    • Interesting fight featuring top two 105 lbers of the two Entertainment promotions. Islay Erika Bomogao with the victory, Mongkutpetch complaining later that she was robbed. Round 1 a VERY clear win for Bonogao. Round 2, I don't believe somewhat wonk throws in the clinch really score in Amateur (at least IFMA amateur, I've seen Loma toss fighters all over the place and lose). Seems like a solid win for Bomogao who is a really interesting little fighter, who I kinda love watching fight (even though she's on ONE). Here most recent fight, where she's fairly well handled, until she closes the deal. I love the vitality she fights with, and that she's not a heavy combo-forward fighter.  https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2029120667993528
    • ALL IN. I see high-awareness, well-intentioned Westerners urging Thai fighters to invest (the operative word) in social media content creation (labor), which is smart, even needed advice as it goes. But...in the larger scope, the more you work (operative word) to turn Craft into Labor, the further you work to transform it into an exploitive - that is to say more precisely, extractive - means, and subject it to the forces of de-skilling. "We are not very good fighters...but, please become much more like us, so we can consume you more readily, even as fighting skill erodes". The Nouvelle Era has many hidden pitfalls, not the least of which is the making of the New Man (the hyper individual) who has become supremely digitalized. All this is well and good, as its the tide of the Earth right now, but I say: "Keep an eye on where Craft gets turned into Labor" if you want to trace the operative drain of the human skill and meaning...as we all become Digital Laborers. As we all are Colonized.

    • That sounds promising if you've already moved, how are things going for you now? 
    • I'm sorry I don't really know. Sylvie is in touch with a collector and this person is where she buys hers, but there are not multiple copies available. Maybe someone else would know of a larger source.
    • Where can I find some physical old Muay Thai magazines? I am located in Bangkok. Thanks
