Honestly, also different pacing. In my opinion the biggest difference. Muay Thai really pick their shots while KB feels a big more like peppering. Also clinch.
So you say that Muay Thai picture shots more than kickboxing have you watched kickboxing or have you watch like two sloppy Fighters because there are a lot of accurate kickboxers

Kickboxing n Muay Thai is the same it doesn’t matter wat people say about being fast it’s diff people in both sports some people in kick boxing are slow n like to hit hard then be light on their feet
I would chose Muay thai... it's a good combination of speed and strength... the icing on the cake is their extreme endurance.. all a perfect fit for a street fight situation...
Look up Dutch kickboxing ( Ramon dekkers, Damien trainor or Nicky holkzen ) very good boxing plus hard n fast low n mid range kicks very fast pace as well
@@way2toxic30 well that’s American kickboxing. If you for example look at Dutch kickboxing we all use knees and also have powerfull strikes. People tend to only listen to American kickboxing but just forget about other kickboxing styles which in tournaments are not limited by anything. Aka we are allowed to use knees and yes a lot of us like muy Thai do have strong power kicks.
Oh jeez... Muay Thai, the art of this combat sport is literally breaking your soul, mentally and physically. Kicking boxing is on par but it's ferocity is what differentiates the two. Muay Thai for the win.
More Thai is overrated because of knees and elbows when if a boxer rabbit punches you you have brain damage for the rest of your life what's an elbow going to do in that situation
@@LxmXl ruclips.net/video/LqYZLlilmTc/видео.html Break your skull maybe? How are you gonna rabbit punch the back of the head without gloves? Do you sucker punch him without gloves? You're gonna break your hand. Unless you clinch and just slap the back of his head then that's not enough to cause significant damage, but if his head is turned and you throw a powerful hook or cross with gloves on then yes. It will do damage. But without gloves you'll fuck your hands up Elbows can break collarbones, skull as you saw in that video, can cut and can ko people as well. All these without any protection. What is a punch without glove gonna do most of the time? You'll break your wrist/fingers etc. Open palm strikes are more reliable in a street fight than punching. Average joe won't break his hand if he throws a punch assuming he tightens the fist correclty because he doesn't have the power. But a full on boxers punch without gloves or very conditioned hands will break your hand. Look at lethwei hand conditioning I've trained boxing for 4 years and switched to muay thai yet I'm not delusional thinking boxing beats any other fighting style. Especially muay thai which is more brutal and has more tools to use. Go learn other martial arts and open your eyes. You're not invincible just because you box
@Sassy Penguin In a way i agree. But no bjj or muay thai artist is going to get a hold of me. I might be stupid. But i aint delusional either. What im saying is in just boxing. My footwork and striking angles are more odd to the average person or fighter.
@@LxmXlI saw myself a boxer transition to Muay Thai. First Muay Thai fighjt he was clearly better than the other fighter with his hands. But he couldn’t land the knock out because the Muay Thai fighter kept using the extended guard in a smart way. The boxer got his legs destroyed, lost by points, didn’t fight again for 7 months because of knee injury as a result of the fight. I think your ego is getting in the way mate
It's mainly because you can't eat many power kicks to the leg or ribs so you really need to adopt that stance to be able to check leg and body kicks. You still want to move out of range of strikes when you can and keep a tight guard with big gloves, can also keep people on the outside if you're long with teeps and footwork, it's not all just check counters and shit it's not as if we just allow ourselves to get smacked in the head. Muay Thai is great
I compete in both and they both have their strengths and weaknesses. I came from boxing so the Dutch style was easier for me to acclimate to initially and I love using footwork to create angles and be slick but I’ve fallen head over heels in love with Muay Thai and I even train in Thailand at times now. Neither is better than the other but gun to my head and I had to choose one style to practice for the rest of my life…I’m Nak Muay all day.
Thanks for the input. I love Dutch kickboxing too. To be honest, unless you're traning in Thailand, with exceptions, you're not really training Mauy Thai
I do both and I’d say the best is to combine both in a street fight as it definitely works. But for competitions especially kickboxing don’t mix them lol that’s against the rules…
Damn.. thats what i was thinking..and just saw your comment..i think boxing and muay thai is a deadly combination..you get footwork from boxing and then you get those powerfull kicks from muay thai thats just is carzy to think about
@@YonkipogForreal, I don’t get why ppl r hating other martial arts lmao, it’s just straightup dumb if ur not even competing within an actual sport. Why would u stick to only one?

@@zakinasser3745 Depends on mostly what you prefer tbh, Muay Thai would give you a strong base for kickbox but striking in kickbox is way better as Muay Thai also focuses on elbows and knees, Muay Thai is more destructive though. I personally chose kickbox as there more to compete in and it’s more available (especially in my country)
@@angellicuk007 Most of the power does come from the hips but it mostly uses all you’re muscles in you’re body including you’re back. I’m sure you can find a video or look online for a more in-depth answer 😊

No, Kyokushin and Muay Thai made original Kickboxing (Japanese). Then the Dutch went to Japan and learned Japanese Kickboxing, took it back to their country and slowly incorporated Western Boxing Techniques, making Dutch Kickboxing.

Далеко не лучшее. Его изучают убийцы и киллеры, поверь, БИ - созданы для защиты, а иногда и для зрелищности, НО НЕ ДЛЯ УБИЙСТВА СВОЕГО ВРАГА, как тайский бокс
As a Muay Thai amateur I always wondered what was the big difference with kickboxing but never bothered to watch until now. It's so interesting to see when they seem like essentially the same thing at first. I'm proud I chose the style I did. Nice videos by the way.
Muay thai is more leg focused, kickboxing is more arm focused. Muay thai focuses a strong defense and demolishing kicks, kickboxing focuses heavy combos, good head movement and offense over defense. They're 2 very complete striking arts.
Muay thai would win, i did another kind of martial arts where we used elbows alot too and from what i learned there elbows are pretty devastating when you hit the right spot. Knees+elbows+good defence rocks
Kickboxing is really cool and practical to learn if you're fast, agile and small but for bigger and meatier guys we might have to rely on Muay Thai simply because we'll have a better chance of defending and delivering devastating kicks
You can use many kicks in Muay Thai, but the thing is that, you SHOULDN'T use many of them most of the time. Most of the time, teep and rounhouse kick are the most effective
I've been to both a muay thai gym and a kickboxing gym with both being very very similar. They both have technical sparring, they both use shins (with the exception of kickboxing's larger variety), and the boxing aspect is exactly the same with the standard jab, cross, hook, uppercut. Surprisingly though I felt that the footwork in muay thai was wayyyy more intricate than in kickboxing. The angle switches, bobbing/weaving, and the steps into kicks were better utilized in my opinion? Also, with knees being involved clenching is a lot more fun and with clenching comes the obvious angle switches and constant turning to counteract the opponent. So I feel like in a way muay thai is better BUT if you were to combine aspects of both in your fighting routine its super fun. The ability to toss an occasional question mark or spin kick on top of those chopping muay thai leg kicks makes for some insanely entertaining combos.
the kickboxing he showed was american kickboxing. theres varieties of kickboxing, and ALOT of them, heres a few: Savate (french) Sayaw Ng Kamatayan, translation: dance of death (filipino kickboxing) Kyukoshin (japanese) and dutch.
I would love to learn Muay Thai but I don't have a clue where to start. I live in Los Angeles and I'm sure there are gyms all over but I'm broke. Hopefully I can get my finances straight cause learning Muay Thai is a must.
Go offer to work for the instructors for free in exchange of doing a class. No trainer will refuse that. I do Muay Thai and the trainers/senior guys are some of the most humble helpful people I’ve ever met. They will Gladly help you, if you are willing. Gd luck
@@jaseperi I second this. 3 years of muay thai under my belt but couldnt afford the classes anymore. head coach let me take over 3 of the kids classes a week to train for free
Rather fight a Muay Thai fighter then a boxer, now if we’re talking highest level, a boxer I’ll be knocked out faster and will be able to walk the next day 😂
To be honest if you’re usually bigger than your opponent, I would suggest Muay Thai and learn the clinch, if you can become excellent at the clinch, your opponents will be in for a rough time, but kickboxing is also pretty good
@@Nelkz39CFC I mean the taller person would have more leverage seeing as they would be pulling down on you, also if you’re taller usually that means you’ll be also heavier and that would sometimes make it harder to knock a bigger person down. The taller people would also have the advantage where it would be easier to knee your opponent higher up on their body. Although if you’re shorter and have a lot more skill compared to your taller opponent then you should easily win, but if you’re at the same skill level as your opponent, the taller fighter has the advantage
@@Nelkz39CFC that… is a good point. I guess being shorter comes with good advantages, but bigger size comes with advantages too which would give a smaller opponent a tough time
Everything alright but neither Kickboxers nor Thais are known for their defense, I'd even say most of them suck at defense (there are exceptions like Saenchai, a master mind).
Muay Thai all day everyday. And if I was a professional fighter I would study this as well as Brazilian style jiu-jitsu. These two things will make you the best well-rounded fighter
@@arianlatifi5492 eh lethwei isn't very technical. It's more like go in the ring and go ape shit vs muay thai were they're technical and playful, playing smart. Muay thai is gonna have to take the vote here. As for catch wrestling and jiu jitsu I'm not sure. Not really informed on catch wrestling than jiu jitsu but there must be a reason jiu-jitsu is mma favorite/norm than catch wrestling haha.

@@GrayMMA You dont kick with shins in kick boxing tho
I chose Muay Thai. No regrets here.
Mi maestro de Kick Boxing nos hace entrenar técnicas de Muay Thai junto con las de kick Boxing, lo admiro.
Kickboxing is really cool and practical to learn if you're fast, agile and small but for bigger and meatier guys we might have to rely on Muay Thai simply because we'll have a better chance of defending and delivering devastating kicks
MUAY THAI 😁
I love it how Thaiboxing it still counts as strikepoints even if your kicks get blocked
Muay thai is definitly something I would like to learn
do it 🥊🔥 you won't regret it!
Dutch kickboxing over Muay Thai. Volume of strikes over clinching
Are you sure?
Dutch Kickboxing VS Muay Thai
Dutch Kickboxing + Muay Thai= Beast
MT is simply a perfected version of kickboxing
Kickboxing uses elbows and knees aswell
From when.? Only maybe in glory kickboxing but still elbow is prohibited
@@saraths6842 in my old kickboxing we where trained to elbow but not knee
@@tomvanderveldo_2047that was prob so that If you would want to compete in muay thai rules
As a boxer,i can say if you fight someone who knows muay thai,run away,they hit too hard,and can even break bones
Kick boxing is about the fundamentals of combos lol. I wouldn't say it's a variety of kicks
I am a kickboxer and i usually combine my styles like karate with muay thai
Both are great Martial arts. But I gotta say. Muay Tai training is just on another level. The raw training methods of Thailand is insane.
Looking at the kickboxing stuff, Mauy Thai has all that except for the Variety of kicks and that may just be a teacher thing.
You can use many kicks in Muay Thai, but the thing is that, you SHOULDN'T use many of them most of the time. Most of the time, teep and rounhouse kick are the most effective
"You can't fight if you don't have a head" - Muay Thai trainer
i do kickboxing, we use elbows and knees as well
True
both are good in their own way in my opinion
Love this 2, but i perfer Muay Thai it's more complete !
I,am coming from muay thai but power kicks are also in kickboxing i thnk thai boxers have advantage plus muay thai boxers are great strikers
Avarage boxer everyone
one leg kick puts your statement to rest
Why
@@AbdulazizACE Boxers arent trained to defend leg kicks. You could effectively win most fights based on keeping your range & throwing low kicks
@@tman4life01And Thai fighters dont have great head movement
@@iGadgetzz head movement isn’t going to protect you from having a dead leg
You make fighting in irl look like its a movie keep up the good work my G 👍💯💯
I'm gonna take Kickboxing as my Pick.
I've been to both a muay thai gym and a kickboxing gym with both being very very similar. They both have technical sparring, they both use shins (with the exception of kickboxing's larger variety), and the boxing aspect is exactly the same with the standard jab, cross, hook, uppercut. Surprisingly though I felt that the footwork in muay thai was wayyyy more intricate than in kickboxing. The angle switches, bobbing/weaving, and the steps into kicks were better utilized in my opinion? Also, with knees being involved clenching is a lot more fun and with clenching comes the obvious angle switches and constant turning to counteract the opponent. So I feel like in a way muay thai is better BUT if you were to combine aspects of both in your fighting routine its super fun. The ability to toss an occasional question mark or spin kick on top of those chopping muay thai leg kicks makes for some insanely entertaining combos.
He fucking did Muay Thai, I been asking for that and Krav Maga for a month, hell yeah Muay Thai makes us little guys scary as fuck
the kickboxing he showed was american kickboxing. theres varieties of kickboxing, and ALOT of them, heres a few: Savate (french) Sayaw Ng Kamatayan, translation: dance of death (filipino kickboxing) Kyukoshin (japanese) and dutch.
Dutch Kickboxing is by far the best🔥
Kickboxing is an umbrella term, under which Muay Thai is included. It's like comparing the term "fruit" to "apple".
Muay Thai is kinda it's own combat sport with it's own rules and techniques but ok
@@tylergannon3377 Kickboxing isn't just one specific ruleset though.
Lol
Probably the japanese or dutch style
Kickboxing also does knees but depends on the rules by judge🤷♂️
Yes and also sweep
Muay Thai and kickboxing is basically the same thing but Muay Thai adds some other stuff to make it even more tough
I would love to learn Muay Thai but I don't have a clue where to start. I live in Los Angeles and I'm sure there are gyms all over but I'm broke. Hopefully I can get my finances straight cause learning Muay Thai is a must.
You can search tutor video on youtube and practice, you may do it wrong but if you keep learning and practice you will have correct form
Go offer to work for the instructors for free in exchange of doing a class. No trainer will refuse that. I do Muay Thai and the trainers/senior guys are some of the most humble helpful people I’ve ever met. They will
Gladly help you, if you are willing. Gd luck
@@jaseperi I second this. 3 years of muay thai under my belt but couldnt afford the classes anymore. head coach let me take over 3 of the kids classes a week to train for free
I would do muay Thai because it's stronger and helps me defend myself and protect people
Rather fight a Muay Thai fighter then a boxer, now if we’re talking highest level, a boxer I’ll be knocked out faster and will be able to walk the next day 😂
Muay thai guy will destroy you worse than a boxer, he’ll kick the crap out of you
@@realtruth1448 think id rather take a punch to the jaw than an elbow tbh
@@realtruth1448 stfu soy thai user.
A muay tie fighter will delete you 😂
@@kitten714 Just beat the shitnout of some at a tournament, Besides 1 so 🤷♂️😉
I trained in old school Taekwondo and boxing simultaneously which helped me to easily transition to Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Sanda & Karate tournaments
Muay Thai > Kick Boxing
I've been doing both for 8 years and thing they are such a good combination.
What's the basic difference between them?
Man this song really fits to the vid lolol
Mauy thai for life 🙏 live love and breath it
Kickboxing sends someone to the hospital
muay thai beats someone even after death
Kickboxing+Muay Thai=Amazing
I’ll personally take kickboxing, with my height and size , I wanna be super volume puncher but be able to use my legs as well
To be honest if you’re usually bigger than your opponent, I would suggest Muay Thai and learn the clinch, if you can become excellent at the clinch, your opponents will be in for a rough time, but kickboxing is also pretty good
@@redheadslush5270 if your taller you shouldn’t be in a clinch tho?
@@Nelkz39CFC I mean the taller person would have more leverage seeing as they would be pulling down on you, also if you’re taller usually that means you’ll be also heavier and that would sometimes make it harder to knock a bigger person down. The taller people would also have the advantage where it would be easier to knee your opponent higher up on their body.
Although if you’re shorter and have a lot more skill compared to your taller opponent then you should easily win, but if you’re at the same skill level as your opponent, the taller fighter has the advantage
@@redheadslush5270 yh but the shorter person would usually want to penetrate your range and put them selves in a more comfortable position
@@Nelkz39CFC that… is a good point. I guess being shorter comes with good advantages, but bigger size comes with advantages too which would give a smaller opponent a tough time
Everything alright but neither Kickboxers nor Thais are known for their defense, I'd even say most of them suck at defense (there are exceptions like Saenchai, a master mind).
How many fighting styles do you master?
Him: Yes.
He's mastered none and taken barely any
Both definitely both depending on my mood
Kickboxing : knockout
Muay thai : death
Muay Thai all day everyday. And if I was a professional fighter I would study this as well as Brazilian style jiu-jitsu. These two things will make you the best well-rounded fighter
*Lethwei and Catch Wrestling (CACC)
Every martial art has their kryptonite.
@@arianlatifi5492 eh lethwei isn't very technical. It's more like go in the ring and go ape shit vs muay thai were they're technical and playful, playing smart.
Muay thai is gonna have to take the vote here.
As for catch wrestling and jiu jitsu I'm not sure. Not really informed on catch wrestling than jiu jitsu but there must be a reason jiu-jitsu is mma favorite/norm than catch wrestling haha.
@@IlyuuJrry34 Here's a little insight. ruclips.net/video/l4KZuxy6az0/видео.html
@@IlyuuJrry34 Lethwei is essentially ancient muay-boran. But I agree modern MT is more technical.
It doesn't depend on the martial art it depends on the martial artist -
Wise man
Agree 100%
@@CyclingMartialartswithMusicMe too
I have been doing muay thai for about halve of my life
I'm 13 btw
i started with kickboxing and went to muay thai and doing it for over 20 years now. everyone doing it should at least visit thailand and train there, i did for 2 years and it was crazy and awesome.
muay for sure❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥
