And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Muay Thai aka thai boxing. Every strike you can think is legal except headbutts (leiwei allows headbutts). Another fun fact is you hit and block with your shin bone (it gets conditioned over time). Either way, think about that next time you bump the coffee table…
Did it for $$ for 13 years. Had a decent fight record too.
Purest form of striking their is and I find boxers to be sissies.
Guy on right brings his knee/shin up to block what he thinks is a low kick coming (very common in Muay Thai). But opponent goes high with a kick instead to the face (not that common. Usually to the body)
This is not cage fighting but is it boxing?

ReplyDeleteCorrect sir,obvious by the upper arm bands. If I learned anything in MMA it was clich or stay the hell away from those practitioners
DeleteClinch not clich. Forearm blocks for knees to the face come in handy too. Not for the faint of heart. Do not try this at home!
