Muay Thai(Thai Boxing) vs. kickboxing

Many people confuse these 2 types of sports,and really,they mean,in principle,similar.
But despite first impressions,it's 2 completely different sport with different techniques and rules.

So here in this thread would like to know who believes.Which of these two sports is more effective on the street and why?

Personally, my opinion is Muay Thai.
Why? Because there are elbows and knees. Unfortunately,the kickboxing that deprived,although there are versions where the knee strikes.Also the Thai clinch is one of the best devices to fight Thai boxers.

Now it is interesting to know other opinions =)

And I think the most effective on the street - the usual Boxing...
Of course,to work with feet,knees,elbows need to be able to,but I recently watched a video where a master Muay Thai(mine is in the transfer of know-it-all) talked about the crushing blows of elbows and knees that break ribs and stuff, but he said that the best means to battle this is just fists...

Combat Sambo, Muay Thai, for example. There is only a couple of nuances: it all depends on the skill and experience of the individual soldier, and not from BI. Besides on the street are completely different situation and environment, so there is an unambiguous answer is not present and cannot be.

You're right,but for example, I've never heard of athlete karate,judoist,taekwondist won the fight against a gang of 2-3 at least,that is quite simple for a boxer...
Here we have guys already results high in November sorely... going to back anyone on the street give - a piece of cake...
So here also depends on BI,such as karate,sports Sambo,Taekwondo,judo,kung fu and stuff on the street do not work... for these BI have a very long train to go against a real opponent...4 years at least..
I speak from experience,used to do karate,and now Boxing,worked there for a year and 3 months and here 1.1 year - a huge difference...

I have heard and read. As schools of the same karate there are different and they are different. Shotokan I don't think particularly help. With Taekwondo the same situation, it's different practiced (there infa that kaxul practice at home a very good combat system).
Judo there is a completely different technique, so in this list it is not particularly appropriate. Any BI, in which the emphasis is on throwing techniques and equipment grabs/chokes, against multiple opponents is less effective than BI, in which the emphasis is on punching technique. But against one very effectively as the same Brazilian JIU-jitsu one-on-one if.
But one on one in home or street environment is rare...

It is not BEE, it's in the skill and experience of the fighters. The boxer is just as likely to be ill-prepared, at that time, as a fighter Wushu-Sanda is a very experienced and prepared. The only difference is the time of training. What would be peak in Boxing - it takes much less time.

So here also depends on BI,such as karate,sports Sambo,Taekwondo,judo,kung fu and stuff on the street do not work... for these BI have a very long train to go against a real opponent...4 years at least..

Again, compare judo and Boxing is like comparing sport of wrestling and Muay Thai. I agree, not very well.

But in General you're right. The key word is time. To get to a decent level, which can protect you in the street and confront the person who owns the other BI - need to train very long time, while in Boxing to achieve confidence, and some success can be much faster. But everyone chooses what he likes, and not that efficient. So it is possible for a real knife at all to go. I, for example, Boxing is not like the purely visual.
And what do the boxer if opponents are few and they are armed?

In BI important indicator of full contact. Kyokushin is quite normal and hard combat system. The only disadvantage is that the punches in the face is forbidden there due to the fact that missing gear. Still, if the clear the knuckles without the gloves slapped on the sparring opponent in the face and to itself, there will be blood too much. That is, in real combat conditions is a definite minus. Not sure exactly about the above, but is read many times.
What do you think about savata?

Also feel the same way that the kulaks the most important thing in a fight, why not take Muay Thai very well, I don't like kicks, elbows...but there are people who this kind of martial arts so much fun getting to each their own.

Here for example I always wanted to start, only ever watched on TV, but only after it has been live for battle, just after that really wanted to start, understand that it is not me 20 years, but still can not afford to refuse, gear only have to buy, and has even signed up for training.

The most effective type of sport is the ability to quickly and long run.

This BI is shooting. As they say, the muscle size on a bullet is not much affected.
