So should muay thai switch to MMA gloves

[goodlun]

Ha ha what is retarded is mma fighters pretending they know how to fight stand up. If mma has a problem with it they are more then welcome to fight full Thai rules in the cage if they are so good at it.

So anyone here taking the challenge? sirc maybe?


And on the topic: Yes of course! Over here they are already fighting MT in cages

What the **** are you talking about?
Have you not seen the number of MMA fighters that have good K1 records?
Have you not seen Anderson Silva fight?
Did you miss the whole early MMA thing when it was strikers vs grapplers and World Champion MT guys fought?
Did you not see the birth of Sprawl and Brawl?

He's quoting the guy who uploaded the video on youtube, who might or might not be John Wayne Parr himself.

Indeed I'm gonna check the channel to look out for any tipe of "non-legit" stuff

Just so you know kyle noke who is our MMA flag ship is actually a pretty decent thai fighter.

In theory most of our best MMAers will come from a stand up back ground.

Kyle noke wayne par caged thai rules.

Yes very interesting fight! Experience vs youth I would dare say albeit you may say that 4 years are not that important

Ahoooooooy I would bet the uploader is John Wayne himself plenty of personal videos of Wayne and plenty of his fights if not the very John someone Extremely close to him

Hell, go back to pre-queensbury knock down/throw rules for Boxing.

I am dying to see this. I think this rule set would catalyst MMA striking into maturity.

Maybe it's because I already knew about Lethwei, Bokator and Pradal Serey being fought with MMA gloves but I really don't find the idea of Muay Thai being fought with MMA gloves to be all that controversial or sacrilegious. I don't really see what the big deal is.

I think the argument against it would be that gloves protect the hands from being broken as much if not more than they protect your opponent. Since Muay Thai doesn't really have any grappling you're definitely giving up a lot more than you are getting.

Muay Thai isn't losing anything by not adopting MMA style gloves. The fighters are still able to clinch and do Thai style throws with the gloves they wear. With uncovered fingers there is more potential for illegal techniques, accidental or not. Case in point:
