Should i do Muay Thai or Kenpo Karate?

Question

Which i a better fighting style in your own opinion

Answer 1

Karate.

Answer 2

Kenpo

Answer 3

Kenpo is more well rounded and complete. I foutht Muy Thai after 4 years in Kenpo and won 4 fights with my Kenpo alone. Frank Trejo was the first to beat a Thai in Thailand and he did it with his Kenpo training. Kenpo has all the aspects of MT and is a fighting style not a sport.

Kenpo definitely.

It works well for Frank Mir and Chuck Lidelle.

Answer 4

It really depends on your style. Kenpo Karate is characterized by its quick moves in rapid-fire succession intended to overwhelm an opponent. It has origins in both Chinese Kung Fu and Japanese martial arts.

Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand and is also known as The Art of the Eight Limbs. In Muay Thai, you use everything from bone-breaking shin kicks, punches, and knees to elbows. Muay Thai has seen much success in Mixed Martial Arts competitions such as UFC... I'm currently a practitioner of Muay Thai and i recommend it but it really depends on you. Hope this helped, Good Luck!

Answer 5

I recommend muay thai but not the muay thai in the US. Go to thailand and learn muay chaiya. Its the ancient form of muay thai used in the war. Muay chaiya would dominate kenpo anytime during the day. Trust me, I have done muay chaiya for a long time now and I garuntee that your skills will improve to limits far beyond your reach.

Answer 6

Tony has put it into perpective !!!

I'm too old for muay Thai so would chose Kempo on that basis.

Best wishes and good luck whichever you chose

Answer 7

There is no better fighting style, only a better fighter.  You should definately do Muy Thai or Kenpo.
