- The fight Rick Roufus (USA) vs Changpuek Kietsongrit (THA).
Until the 80s, for people who had never visited Thailand, Muay Thai was a completely unknown martial art. While in Brazil Jiu-Jitsu developed and, according to residents, claimed to be the best battle system in the world. In America, it was believed that kickboxing and karate have no equal. But it’s very difficult to check it since UFC has not yet been invented...

How do you like the voice-over?
It’s cool .
Love the voice. Great work
Kind of raspy
Very goof. 👍👍
Pretty good, but Dan Ingram had the best voice.

I like when athletes beat thai fighters
@@tonymontana3949 simply because they're more experienced
Fucken A hole, lmao. Funny shit, made me laugh for days.
@@andrewrex9041is that not how a fight works in most sports?
Kyokushin low kick is so popular that's why Changpuek used Kyokushin low kick in this fight which happened in the 80's 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Thai fighter: But coach, they banned all knees and elbows....
Coach: Pretend he's a banana tree.
I can hear that in Xian Chow’s voice lol
John Claude Van Damme approves this comment lol.
RIP and that leg, like the tree, is dead now
Ha....thai fighter. I'd pay to see a thai boxer screaming tie-fighter noises at his opponent. Talk about a power move.
That was hillarious! OP comment ever!
Dude the fact that this american kick boxer later became a muay thai coach is like a scene straight out of movie
when you beat the enemy team so bad they send friend request
Basically the main plot for Kickboxer, with Jean Claude Van Damme.
@Tracchofyre After he claimed he was the best in the world after only fighting the best in one country. That's pretty American too.
@@KatanaKamisama because no fighter from any other country has ever claimed to be anything but the best, am I correct? I would say that is a competitive fighters attitude, rather than trying to make it some sort of insult as to what you think a "typical" American is.
Well his brother but yea....
Its a traditional to watch this every once in a while.
Would the admin delete and block all the spam comments, please? I want to read other comments.
🙏LOVE MUAY THAI🔥
😍I always loved the simple power of Muay Thai, no flashy moves just unrelenting brutality!❤🔥
🤩Thanks for sharing your awesome video!👍👍
this Thai man (Muay_MMA) said,
@Muay_MMA
Come on Thai fan, mention more muay thai, 3 are not enough xD
Heheheh rekt!, I get more posts and it pisses you off more, so you rage quit,
"It does not require a lot of skill" my dude, they baned the high skill moves so your brother wouldn't die
@Juan Gonzales exactly. to counter kicks, you gotta get in close.
@Juan Gonzales ... that's under kickboxing rules. Going in close to a Thai fighter under Thai rules will be a good way to get an elbow smashed between your face or pulled into a clinch where they will proceed to remove your pesky ribs via knees.
@Juan Gonzales so what rules are we hypothetically talking about here? Are we still restricting the Thai fighter with kickboxing rules?
Juan Gonzales U go close to a Muay Thai fighter u either will get a nasty standing Knee or standing flying knee or a nasty elbow or even a killer hanuman
@Juan Gonzales Are you still failing to put elbows, which are obviously legal in Muay Thai, into the equation? Going in close like you've said so many times will only allow the Thai to get elbows both outside and inside the clinch. As for low kicks, which you say are "the only good defense a Thai fighter has", taking a kick anywhere is much easier said than done according to you. Boxers can't check kicks because they haven't conditioned their shins, and tensing up your leg makes no difference when the contact point of the kick is a hard bone of a shin, not a foot. Spinning will only get your back to end up like hamburger meat: czcams.com/video/7hGIGI5OhlU/video.html
So they changed the rules to handicap the Thai boxer and he still won? Respect
Yeah and the brother made a excuse saying it's simple kicks. With one move the Muay Thai fighter still won
@@eduardojara6955 That all you need one excellent move that train for years, will win! :D
Keep in mind this is a mid-level thai boxer against the undisputed #1 kickboxer in the world at the time. The thai fighter cant even use 70% of his toolkit( knees, eblows, and clinches) and still won. This just speaks volumes to how far ahead muaythai is compared to any other standup stance
@@fnirwak1234 not back then
Bruce Lee said that.
It's very impressive that he beat him with only attacking his legs.
Afterwards, it was thought that Rufus was screaming "Muay Thai!", but it turns out he was saying "My thigh!"
Most underrated comments....had a very good laugh.... good one......

Why you gonna do the American like that, lol.
😂

When you beat someone at their own game with rules they set, you're a fucking champion in my eyes.
Hell yeahhh
Exactly what happened with Kazushi Sakuraba vs Royce Gracie
I bet they wanted to change the rules again after the fight.
@@vincentestrade1283 no thats different. people already knew other styles not simply one. sakuraba lost to the gracies too. that title is held by wallid ismail
Not really they changed some of the rules didn’t they
Even with crappy rule the muay thai dude only used kicks to destroy him. That's why mauy thai is like the king of striking style until today. The fighting that has definitely changed and revolutionized MMA forever for sure. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😜🤪😜🤪
Yes,it was Changpuek Kiatsongrit(343 fights,277 wins,61 lost, 5 draw).He defeated big stars like Rick Roufous,Cook Dale,Rob Kaman.
*they: ban elbows and knee movements

박성자 dang it you stole my comment. I was going to say Mike Thighson
Am I right to assume that Ricks legs werent conditioned to receive blows because kickboxing didnt allow low kicks? Doesnt seem like a viable challenge to prove anything.
i like the fact the guy admitted he was wrong and embraced something different. Not a lot of people have that much guts.
Absolutely agree. This is a winner attitude. Like Godfather: "he rarely made mistakes and when he survived them, his enemies feared him even more because they knew he learned from all his mistakes"
A lot of people were into karate, then into kickboxing, then into muay thai, then into K1, and today they are the old-timers in the MMA clubs
Fighting men don't have the luxury of being wrong. A beat-down goes a long way to changing your mind.
Well you’d be a fucking idiot not to do so if you’re so self centred and focused on your own achievements and you get destroyed by some guy from Thailand. Better adapt to the guys skills for your own benefit.
This is a true martial artist.
"He was allowed to low kick". So he low kicked the hell outta him. I love it
LOL, Remember when the K-1 Tournament allows more than 1 knee clinch, so Buakaw knee the shiat out of his opponent. Then they have to change the rule due to these Thai Fighter LMAO
He was like : that's all i need 😏😏😏

i wouldnt mind i appreciate the blessing

People fail to realize how much leg kicks really hurt. Additionally if it's a Muay Thai fighter, those shins are steel.
Getting kicked repeatedly in the leg by a guy that kicks trees for fun... i'm surprised the guy lasted that long. My leg would snap like a twig.
French boxing/La Savate is fucking brutal too.
Yeah, the pain is one thing if you can ignore it, but once the bruising sets in a bit, you lose the normal muscle control and the muscle stiffens as it fills with blood so every further hit is absorbed less and does more damage. It does take a couple of minutes to take effect, that's why he's so much worse off in the round 2. If he sat down at all between rounds, I bet he had trouble getting up.
The way he tried to dodge them made them land harder too. Quite a lot of the kicks landed after he partially dodged and was off balance with a lot of his weight on the wrong leg. He would have been better off just tightening his leg and taking the hit than jumping off balance and getting hit in a way that made his leg twist around. Its gonna hurt either way, but I'd rather have a massive bruise on my thigh than a shattered knee.
@@timeshark8727 That s just what the commentator said , the guy had NO idea how to defend against it , hell mate , they take off most of his skills , allow him just one thinking hey low kicks can't be that bad right ? This was just pure bliss to watch :) Even back then people knew how they trained those low kicks , man not preparing against it was just arrogance at it's best , and he paid for it . Good thing is he realised his mistake at least , not much people can do that :)
For the people saying the low kicks were a basic move that anyone can do, you fail to realize that's all he was allowed to do outside of punching. Remember, he couldn't throw any elbows, flying knees and other shit that's apart of the fighting style. He may have killed the kick boxer if he was able to do everything
Pretty much sums it up about Muay Thai.....it's basically all moves and attacks that are illegal in every single other type of hand to hand sports. Hell you can't even throw elbows in fricken MMA. It's essentially the school you study if you like cheating. And the fact that he threw that low kick literally hundreds of times with nothing else pretty much proves it.
@@jmogler cheating? It wasn't designed for western entertainment. Muay thai is about utilizing your body as a weapon. Using almost every available tool your body has. Elbows being the sharpest cutting tool you can throw.
@@cuchalopa It doesn't seem there is anything more to say to this guy except he named himself correctly. He is an NPC
Muay Thai was used for war in the old times, if you lost your sword or bow you would resort to Muay Thai as your last weapon to kill your opponent
@GeT RekT up was thinking that myself lol 🤔
This is the real life version of when you spam the low kick in Mortal Kombat
haha was thinking of that as well.. those annoying players who spam the same combo
Sounds like youve never been in a fight 😆 how cute
or 2p in vf.
@@cfynest1 sounds like you never been trained to fight how adorable
You gotta chop that tree
Knees and Elbows are not allowed*
Thai: So a hundred low kicks then..
hhahah
pmsl I love that. Because it's likely exactly what he thought
If the master of 8 limbs can't use all 8 limbs then shin kicks to the legs it is!
yeah that bullshit "a win is a win" is a dogshit way to win.
that dude was getting bangled and only way the other could come back was to play dirty. there was no skill or any other honor in winning with low kicks the rest of the match.
the american landed that spin kick to the gut perfectly. one of them did severe damage, versus a million girly shit kicks to the opponents legs lol..
he simply could of been more creative to win. he suppost to be a skilled fighter. so that was just disappointing to see him use that bs to win a fight. i guess when you admit, that you will not defeat this fighter. it calls for desperation though.
@@LestatTravesty how is he supposed to have skill if all of his skills are banned lmao.
Kyokushin, Japanese and Dutch kickboxers have been thai fans and learn muay thai since 60's #1 style hehehe 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😜😗😗😗😗🤪🤪🤪🤪😜🤪😜🤪
So.... Ask a guy to fight, limit his arsenal, then complain when he gets you with the one tool he had left..... Face it. If he was using elbows & knees too it would have been over way sooner.
Mashallah
I have to agree
100%
@Aris Fernando Not being racist but very true. Same thing I was thinking.
Wasn't his brother the one who complained?
"I used to be a kickboxer like you until I took a kick to the leg."
Ah! I see you are a man of culture as well.
Lmao excellent!

@@alithetrap_____5054 nobody asked
"I wanna show my martial style is better than yours, but you're not allowed to do any of the moves of your martial style"
They did it for the safety of the American... Could you imagine if they allowed elbows and knees? That Thai boxer would have killed that American boxer... LOL.
@@BiggerThenKingKong Yep Knees and Elbow are deadly it's one of the hardest bones it could freaking Kill you
This video would be titled “Thai fighter killed American” if they allowed the Thai to use his entire arsenal.
@@BiggerThenKingKong that's not true either.
Just look at the original first three or five UFC events for proof otherwise.
They pitted all commers who were the best in the world at their art, against each other with, no rules, no weight classes, no time limits, no rounds, just brawling.
And yes, through The years Muay Thai has proven to be one of the more effective arts, but no art by itself, is the most Superior way of fighting.
And in those first ufc events, it was REPEATEDLY brazilian jiu jitsu that was coming out on top.
Movie tie fighters were effective but they certainly weren't killing their opponents, even when they could use everything they knew.
That's why the best fighters in the world now are MIXED martial artists.
@@mrfixitusa6165 i almost agreed but, for me people who fought in an open, rule less fights (street fighting) are the best foghters, not mixed martial artist, well that's just my opinion
So basically his brother said that it didn't even require skill to destroy the kickboxer lol.
Lmao true
And he's absolutely right
hahahaha brilliant point
You’re missing the point of the video. It was viewed in the same light as being kicked in the balls. Little to know skill matched with maximum damage. They didn’t understand the finer points of Thai boxing. Nobody from AKB knew it was possible to defend yourself from those kind if kicks.
@@alphabetsoup342 Being kicked in the balls is different from getting kicked in the legs.

Well it was kickboxing rules not MMA.

That's America 😂
True. The challenger should adapt to the rules, not the other way round. You can think about McGregor whatever you want, but he got that right.
I think it's important to point out the first knockdown broke Changpuek's jaw. He fought that whole goddamn match, and won it, with broken jaw.
Much respect for that warrior
Wow! That is crazy
What?!? Really? Shit, that is insane.
they limited his skills to give the american an advantage and then they bitch about him breaking the kickboxer's legs with one kick? the american boxing way didnt allow most of what he had trained for. in a street fight, the thai fighter would have used elbows, knees and throws, if you notice, the thai fighter didnt use elbows or knees and still managed to beat the kickboxer under kickboxing rules, he would beat him in a street fight
. also, the first knockdown broke Changpuek's jaw. He fought that whole goddamn match, and won it, with broken jaw.
@@WasephWastar They actually gave the thai fighter the advantage. Usually they go to the lowest common denominator for rule sets. If an mma fighter wants to fight a boxer, they box.
This Fight Reminds of that Quote by Bruce Lee :
*“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.”*
correct
and he practice this kick during that fight exact 10 000 times until perfection
all 10 000 were in this fight
ON POINT

@Mr. Lumiss The funniest thing is that he actually fought in the streets and got into martial arts because he was bullied and ganged up a lot on. Often he had to fight outnumbered. Because he was only half chinese and even his fellow students tried to convince the master to kick him out for not being full chinese.
You should really learn the history of a person before making statements like that, it only makes you unknowledgeable and ignorant.
@Mr. Lumiss you're talking about a guy who died almost 50 years ago. The word of martial arts was at a different place back then. If Bruce Lee were alive today he would be fighting in MMA, and I wager he would be one of the best. That man ate, slept, and breathed martial arts more than most of the fighters in the UFC today, barring a few exceptions.
Yeah and he used it ten thousand times in the fight lol
Kyokushin low kick is so popular that's why Changpuek is using Kyokushin low kick in this fight which happened in the 80's 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

For a muay thai, jaw braking is just another sunday, they have god tier pain endurance
breaking your jaw in muay thai is just another day for pros
For Thai Fighters, your pride is your meal ticket. If you lose that, you will never be respected no matter how many wins you get.
Yeah. During high school, my muay thai buddy was forced by his mom to see a dentist to put on braces. It took like 3 years to finish bracing. Thai mom never cares.

This is a perfect example of this quote.
@@donvisione3634 loool
It was hilarious that this was considered a fair cross-style fight when the rules laid out eliminated most Thai boxing techniques, and it's even funnier when the brother suggested that the Thai style held no merit after a Thai boxer destroyed Rufus's leg with a neutered version of his style.
I'm glad we've moved into the era of MMA where this kind of thing can be properly demonstrated.
Are there many traditional muay thai fighters in mma? I don't follow it but i used to train muay thai and absolutely loved everything about it. I ask because I've never seen any mma fighters bouncing their front foot like muay thai fighters do. But tbh i have not watched that many mma fights.
@@Jacktoriousrexrex In truth, the purity of most martial arts has been diluted in MMA. I can't think of a "traditional purist" Muay Thai fighter in any MMA organization, but the full range of their techniques(or very nearly so) are permitted by the rules.
But if this fight use muay thai rules then it wouldn't be faor for the kickboxing guy, thats why its a "mixed" rules.
@@Jacktoriousrexrex Muay Thai brings a lot of things to the table which can be utilized in MMA. Muay Thai fighters are very strong clinchers and their kicks, knees and elbows are infamous for a reason (although not all of it is allowed under MMA ruleset). They kick like horses and they have a fearsome mindset/iron will: They keep coming. They're tough, very tenacious and have a lot of stamina.
That being said, a traditional, pure Muay Thai fighter, fighting only with traditional, pure (Sport) Muay Thai, probably wouldn't stand a chance in professional MMA, I guess. I've never seen it at least. In the end you need to be more versatile than that, fighters need to be experts in multiple fighting styles so that they can fight in all elements (hence Mixed Martial Arts). You need additional stuff for your ground game (brazilian jiu jitsu, judo, wrestling) and some skill in Western Boxing or you won't last long in an MMA fight.
Edson Barboza's style is an amalgamation between Muay Thai, Boxing, (Brazilian) Jiu Jitsu and Taekwondo. Joe Rogan once said that he considers him as "probably the best kicker in MMA" and it's easy to see why. He loves connecting those kicks over and over again, until he finally sees the pain in his opponents eyes.
@@Jacktoriousrexrex Israel Adesanya began with Muay Thai. Thai Clinch is devastating if it cannot be escaped (Silva vs Franklin). But pure muay thai is not enough.
Problem is the thai stance on loading weight on the back leg makes it easy for a wrestler to grab a take down.

That guy's Duke Roufus, the low kick extraordinaire. Trust me, Rick and Duke learned better.
Well he's correct. Even untrained people can learn how to effectively chop somones leg within a few days but not having a counter to something so basic removes the right to criticize the guy spamming low kicks

Pretty sure I read somewhere that his jaw was broke on the first knockdown. Pro tip: don't start a fight with a Thai fighter.
up until a few decades ago, it was not uncommon for muay thai tournaments in thailand to end in someone dying. top fighters don't give up until they're dead.
Super respect!
I'll acknowledge the merits of thai boxing, but I don't see how chosing to risk dying over a competitive match is worthy of respect.

they can do high kicks but usually not often only when they really see an opportunity because high kicks are so vulnerable to counter attack,they have perfected a style that works and against his opponent who outclassed him in high kicks he used a diffent tactic

imagine if they allowed knees, elbows, and thai clinch. dude would have died.
Damn straight, Muay Thai in its rawest form is brutal. The only rules in Thailand is don't kill, but if they die, nature of the sport. /shrug
just kick would be enough for him LOL
Exactly ABSOLUTELY
Yes. This kickboxing match. But.. Kickboxing copy muay Thai.
Agreed
Incredible fact nobody seems to have mentioned: Changpuek suffered a broken jaw in Round 1 and still managed to continue to Round 5. Class act.
If it was actually broken than that's frocking tough. His adrenaline was so high he probably could take it.
incredible fact number 2 if it were a real fight and no ref, there would be no second round.
@@electricdeckhead3083 A real fight means there's no rule that restricts 90% of the thai's deadly moves, unlike in this official match.
CYCLOPATH Thai fights are meant to be quick in real life. If Chang decided in a real fight to strike his elbow on rufus neck, there’s nothing stopping him from doing it. Even Thai ring matches aren’t showcasing fully what Thai boxing can do.
getpoornow “class act” when he stepped on the chest of a guy who is down?
Muay thai beating boxing in hand to hand really revolutionized MMA forever xD 😜😝😝😜😝😗😗😗😗🤪🤪🤪🤪😗😗😗😗🤪🤪🤪🤪😗😗😗😗🤪🤪🤪🤪😜🤪
Most boxers in Thailand have been trained since the age of 5, making their bones and muscles very strong.
this Thai man (Muay_MMA) said,
@Muay_MMA
Come on Thai fan, mention more muay thai, 3 are not enough xD
Heheheh rekt!, I get more posts and it pisses you off more, so you rage quit,
So.. There's no defense for low kick?
Press down-forward and low parry. 🧐
@@Ander01SE Funny, doc😆
Check the kick with your own shin, either north pole or south pole (depending if wou want to crash his attack or just stop it)
You can aso have a good manage of the distance and timing, in which case you can retire the attacked leg
If you wathc some thai combacts you will see a lot of this for sure :)
How fucking tanky is Changpuek? He ate so much without losing his taggett
If you try to limit somebody's skill before you fight, that means he already won .
Thats so cool
That is why I do krav maga and carry guns
@Frullie so is punching and kicking someone in the fucking head
Mcgregor lost to Mayweather. Mayweather limited Mcgregor and Mayweather won.
@@imHim710 at least McGregor didn't loose as bad as the kickboxer in this video. Next time McGregor and Mayweather should fight in mma rules.

"Quit spamming the kick button!"
Unfortunately thanks to their rules it was the only button on the controller that worked, lol
"It did not require a require a lot of skills to apply these blows..."
So, basically, you are saying that your brother lost to a low skill technique? Ok.
I stumble upon this comment and oh boy you made me laugh because a professional boxer losees to a technique that require very little effort to use.
I'm not saying I agree with him, but I don't see what point you are trying to make. There are a lot of things in life that require very low skill and by doing them it allows people to defeat someone who is way more skilled and talented than they are. If you lose to a low skill technique that doesn't say anything about you, it just means your opponent was doing something cheesy. Often times being cheesy and doing something low skill is a GREAT way to defeat someone way more talented than you are. That's the entire point.
@@bestieswithtesties lol. Its called strategy. If your opponent has good upper body strength but weak lower body. You target the lower body. If they only can block punches you throw kicks. Calling it cheesy because you werent prepared for it is the crying of a soar loser. Professor fighters are just weak nowadays because they are so use to being babied by rules in a fight.
@@bestieswithtesties how can you compare which of them were more skilled, when they limited the arsenal that the muaythai boxer could use.
Completely different now. He was young then, but now runs the best mma striking gym in the US. Roufussport
Kyokushin, Japanese and Dutch kickboxers have been thai fans and learn muay thai since 60's #1 style to easily one shot any boxers hehehe xD 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😜😗😗😗😗🤪🤪🤪🤪😜🤪😜🤪
The so called “dirty” stomp by Chang was a response to Rufus attempting to kick Chang in the face after Chang went down the second time... why not call that out?
Damn you’re right bro
100%. He also didn't really strike him, but made a point.
it was definitely more of a step than a stomp
Because ‘Merica that’s why
You could consider both dirty then🤝
Rick was a professional and not only did he not make excuses for his loss, like his brother did, but he worked on the techniques that defeated him and later became a teacher of those techniques. That's a true professional martial artist.
This video shows that the kickboxer didn´t fight with inteligence. The techniques are good but his brain didn´t work letting the Muay Tay fighter punish that leg so many times.
@@thereasonforyou7048 It's more how he was trained rather than how intelligent he is. Doesn't matter how intelligent you are if you came to a battle underestimating you're opponent.
@@Kitten_Genocide actually if you are an intelligent fighter, you would never underestimate an opponent.
@@thereasonforyou7048 Seems to me it was pretty intelligent to continue attacking his legs.
TheReasonForYou no no. Rick did a really good job in the fight and showed a lot of heart after his leg was shot. Remember, American kickboxing doesn’t allow leg kicks. Rick Roughs’ leg kick defense wasn’t there. The Thai fighter exposed that big weakness in Rick’s game.

Everyone want to fight the Thai boxer, as long as they don't have to follow the Thai boxing rule.
Well, both fighters are following the same rules. And the Thai fighter accepted the fight knowing the rules. Fair fight.
@@alterego3525 you don't get it, if it was Muai Thai rules Rufus would even been more in a world of hurt. The Thai Boxer is fighting and accepted the American kick boxing rules in which he destroyed Rufus weak ass legs. Fair fight yes no excuse Rufus got his leg destroyed.
Bunch of people nowadays fight under thai rules and many famous thai fighters have lost against Dutch, Japanese, Russians, etc. This is no longer the 80s
@@luevang3765 Man shut the fuck up unless you want to prove you can back it up. Talking about someone having weak legs when you've never won a fight in your entire life. Rufus took a ton of those kicks. One of those kicks would have put you on the canvas crying
@@alterego3525 Just because it's agreed doesn't make it fair. Rufus got a BIG handicap on this fight.
Have to respect both men, one succeeded with major limitations placed on him, they other learnt from the defeat and embraced his opponent’s technique
Mashallah
Well said. Even Rick's brother who talked all that trash about Muay Thai after came back to apologize and admit Muay Thai was superior.
@David Davidson Duke Roufus did and he even had some Muay Thai bouts.
@David Davidson Yes, it said he became one of the best muay thai coaches outside of Thailand.
A true martial artist!
Leg kicks require no skill?? Thai boxers spend many years perfecting those kicks, they are lethal.
kicked him so hard he converted him lol.
wololol
hahaha...oh shit...he kicked some sense into him.
Kicked him so hard he convinced the world those kicks are pretty good.
@@sealer1675 - he kicked a bone out his ass....
Lmao
Props to both fighters - Chang came into the fight at a disadvantage and still won. Rick was humbled, admitted defeat and became renowned as one of the best striking coaches.
Duke became the renowned coach. He was Rick's brother that called low kicks cheap.
@@whichDude they arent cheap if they are devastating!
How dare you post such a calm collected and logical remark in our toxic comment section. Get out of here!
@@c4un544n5 lol
They allowed low kicks so I he wasn't at a disadvantage
That's so disrespectful to not give credit to the winner. The winner had to fight using only a limited amount of his skill. Imagine if he was allowed to use it all.
At any time he could have decided to go for the head, Rufus was wide open for it and would have been finished immediately this was a statement. Dude is a fucking beast, people just didn't know, Muay Thai has some of the most brutal techniques when it comes to kicking, so he let them know what it was.
He would have killed the American lol. Those Thai fighters are fucking hard man
Well said. If he had been able to use Muay Thai rules, fight would've ended earlier.
It was also disrespectful the way he put his foot on Rufus when he was down its disrespectful to the ring and the ref.
@@justinwilliams7324 it's allowed in the Thai boxing rule called "tam nam" translate to "follow the water"
If the enemy is on a fall u have a split second to follow another strike. In the Thai boxing world u'll see alot of it.
Imagine if they had let him use Elbows and Knees... This fight would have been much shorter.
@keenan casey Wouldn't that be lethwei?
@@Adamo-vs1xx muay boran = lethwei

@@kissmyass4468 muay boran with modern stance = lethwei
@windson7 mcgregor agreed to the fight yes. But he wasnt trying to prove that his martial art was better than mayweathers, he wanted to show he was better at boxing than him. This is not the case in this video. In this video they are trying to see which is the best martial art and thats why elbow knees and clinching shouldve have been allowed. Also you dont get tko'd by 2 knockdowns but 3 so the kickboxer lost to a handicapped thai guy anyways.
Kickboxers: “yeah no way they can win”
Rules: *no elbows, knees, and only one/two low kicks*
Muay Thai: “That’ll do”
LMAO
Also no clinch and no sweeps
Considering Ramon Dekkers was over in Thailand wrecking everyone with kickboxing under their own rules, I'd say kickboxing is definitely still superior.
@@TheStraightestWhitest u cant bring ramond deckers into the argument, that guy could be considered the best of both worlds, it would be like bringing gandhi into who is a good person argument between your friends
Straight White Male Ramon wasnt just a kickboxer.. he was one of the best Muay Thai fighters ever

This is pretty sad: you banned all of your opponent's signature moves and still lose lol
It's not sad. And American kickboxing does not allow leg kick. International rules does. Thai fights allow the knees and elbows. He likely was not expecting the leg kicks to have the impact that they did.
Kickboxong is like a chinese version of muay thai you can use it but is it affective tho? Lmao
Exactly my thoughts if the muy guy had all his moves the American wouldn't last a round
@@karamqarabash9341 not even 30 seconds.
It can't any sadder than that lmao
And that's how you chop down a tree...
@Western Man Van Damme is a pussy full of cocaine

I hate homosexuals
timber! lol
Yes, he def chopped Ricky down......bet Rick learned how to check low leg kicks after that......lmao!
@@gregallen9065 That's what I was gonna say, the greatest fear of someone who throws hard low kicks like that... a well timed check. It can snap their leg in two.
After first round.
Thai Corner: "Chop that tree down!"
XD
That's the technique. Chopping the tree
Bruce Lee said the same..that in a street fight he wouldn't be using high spinning kicks,it would be ankles,shins and kneecap he would be aiming for!

There's a reason kickboxing is almost never seen in mma these days 😅 so no reason to discuss.
japascho yea it’s because kickboxing pays better unless you become a star in mma
those leg kicks are scary af.
Im surprised how he held for that long.
Gee I remember that nasty shin kick from anderson silva that snap his leg
I was always a Grappler and got to compete at a high level, but i did muay thai for two years and trained with a fellow who was 2nd in the world and now teached in the Thai camps in Thailand, when sparring, he only matched me because i wasn't a true striker, his bones and calcium buildup made him feel like dense iron, it was scary, i knew then that if i ended up in a fight i will latch on quickly knowing people out there looking normal in regular clothes and could KILL with years of Thai training, i mean these guys can break Baseball bats with angled strikes with their shins!!!
Not if you learn how to check them.
@@generalkayoss7347 Yup, time the check and watch that leg snap in two, they will be flopping around in no time.
