Came across this vid of a Thai boxer destroying a western boxer and thought I would share. YouTube - Boxing vs Muay Thai

That Boxer got tooled big time. He won't be able to stand in the morning... He had some nasty leg kicks.

Regiment

The boxer looked way out of his depth and just looked like he hadn't trained or prepared himself for a k1 fight and was just hoping to box the dude.

if anyone's ever read A Fighter's Heart, the book mentions that western boxing could indeed beat muay thai.
this guy got freakin owned though.

It all depends on the rules. If it's a boxers rules, the boxer is more likely to win, and vice versa

Using two weapons vs using eight.

Hmmmmm. I wonder which will be more effective

Now that depends if your eight weapons are knives, and his 2 weapons are shotguns.

Jushiness

i hope you are joking.

anyway yes boxing Could beat muay thai if you restrict the Muay thai fighter to his fist. but a fight allowing the muay thai fighter to use fist, elbows, knees and legs, the boxer has not chance. his evasion can only save him for so long before the muay thai fighter rips him apart.

Yes of course I'm joking,

You're right, agree with that completely. And I've been there before. I got into a fight with an undefeated amateur boxer who is the same age as me, and he punched me in the face. It hurt like a bitch, so I went mental and when he went for another jab, I ducked under and kicked him in the side of the ribs. He went down like a bitch.

So the argument could be, could a Kickboxer easily beat a Boxer too using just hands and feet?
