Learn from Legends: http://www.legendarystriking.com One of the best kyokushin karate fighters, Michael Thompson, faced off against Muay Thai legend Changpuek Kiatsongrit. There are many lessons from this fight. Historically, Muay Thai has come out ahead very often against other martial arts. This is especially true in the lower weight classes where most Thai fighters are. Changpuek was an exception in that he's a bigger Thai. He was a natural middleweight facing heavyweights around the world. Representing the art of Muay Thai, he came out ahead against many legends, but lost several matches too against bigger opponents. In this fight he faced the elite Kyokushin Karateka and dominated the whole fight until he got spin kicked when the bell rang 3rd round. Not sure how I feel about this one. Seeing Chanpuek sad makes me sad, but it is war you do have to be ready at all times. So much lessons to learn from history. What are your thoughts?
