Something to clarify, cohost Fabricio trained Muay Thai in Italy, and he doesn't know the moves in English, so when he's saying "side kick," he means roundhouse kick.
Sanda vs muay thai should allow elbow, knees of mt and the throws and ring outs of sanda. Including both styles special techniques would make it more fair
When I think in a Perfect Style of Striking I think of Muay Thai it's perfect for stand up The Elbows,Thai Clinch, Knee, Heavy attacks and toughness of them.
@@DouglasGomesBueno-jw9lh probably the most well-known but silat have good elbows, Kung Fu ( hard to find good schools sadly) too. Muaythai is just the most well-known cause the traditional aspect the sports carried around the world
These guys are pretty accomplished fighters. Sanda guy is said to be 5-time national champion, runner-up of European championship and World Cup winner. Muay Thai guy is claimed as European champion in thaiboxing and world championship bronze medalist in kickboxing. Kinda disappointed in lack of throwing techniques from the Sanda guy though.
It’s strange to watch, because the beauty of the fast takedowns IS what I watch Sanda for. It’s the most enjoyable part of the sport, to me. The “Kuai Jiao”
When you take away takedowns from Sanda, the sloppiness of some of Sanda guys' striking really starts to show. That was the case in early Kunlun Fight promotions (Chinese promotions but they had quite a few good muay thai fighters and kickboxers) - Albert Kraus in his boomer stage was cleaning up the Chinese fighters until they learned the dutch system.
It's the same Problem With Sambo or Japanese Kudo styles that mix Grappling and Striking are never good in strike when you retire the Grappling like Boxing, Kickboxing or Muay Thai that focus only in striking.
@@DouglasGomesBueno-jw9lh Yeah, any time you have to compete in a narrower ruleset, you're using skills that you didn't spend 100% of your time honing, so it's not gonna be as pretty (or muscle memory in terms of deployment)
To my untrained eyes, there didn't seem to be a great deal of difference in the styles, the Muay Thai guy had the typical kind of rolled forward shoulders, his kicks seemed to have much more power, and his elbows were a class above his opponent. Really enjoyed this fight 👍
@@legion162 look at wushu masters highlights. Sanda is kinda of unknown to be honest although nowadays it is becoming more well-known. Is a kickboxing ( some categories allow elbows but not all) and it have thrown and standing grappling. is a fast-paced fight style and the throw are hard to deal if you aren't familiarized with them
@@B..B. thanks for the information, going to show my ignorance and say I thought wushu was the pretend martial arts they do in Chinese movies with 30 meter flying kicks, and 20 spins before landing a jumping kick lol, time to hit UA-cam and educate myself 🤣

Sanda with elbows is better in my opinion, cause the throws and the speed. Sanda is fast paced

Combining with the speed and variety of Karate kicks and the head movement and combinations of boxing and you're essentially a monster.
The “health bars” on the side of the screen are interesting
Yeah, lots of potential! Just not explained too well as to what exactly they're trying to show.
I don't like them
kinda spoils the fight tho
LOL. I was looking for it. Oh, i think you mean the 3 rounds bars. 3 rounds rules.
This guy is cool, bring him more please!

So interesting! Which sanda guys did kraus take on? I'll do a search.

I definitely did see a lot of clinching and even knees and elbows. Did I watch the same fight as you?
When did the UFC ban elbows? I have seen many UFC fights where elbows were used...
specifically 12-to-6 (straight down spiking elbows) are not allowed. It's a legacy rule that hasn't gotten much support in overturning.

The sanda guy doesn't look like he does sanda tho. He isn't capitalizing in the side kicks nor to the head kicks
@@B..B. to be honest, I haven't got a clue what Sanda is, I've heard the name, but don't think I've ever seen it
@@legion162Sanda is Chinese Kickboxing but is allowed Takedowns and a bit of Grappling too.

Whats up with the stupid health bars lol
score trackers. Not sure what's supposed to happen if you max out that score on your opponent.
Close range
Sanda would takedown Muay thai.
I am a head hunter
Does it work for you?
😮
this muay thai fighter fighs like a kickboxer not a thai fighter.look at the stance and the way he moves
