Thai Boxing vs Karate started in 1963, when Kyokushin co-founder Kenji Kurosaki got knocked out by a Muay Thai fighter in Thailand (Bangkok) at Lumpinee Stadium. This sparked the Japanese invention of Kickboxing. As a result, the feud between Karate and Muay Thai escalated. In today's video I aim to end the rivalry by fighting Petch Aek Sitjaopho (Poonnasit Kambung). Enjoy! :)

#MUAYTHAI
What martial art should I face next? 🤔
Taekwondo
Jiu Jistu
TAE KWON DO
Ryan Garcia
French Savate
My experience of sparring against MT is extremely painfully bruised inner and outer thighs 😳😆
Tadashi Nakamura 😀 Osu.
And the reasom for praying It's to teacher yes like the others comment, but the teacher here mean his own normal teacher and also the ancestors like those who invent it, improve it, include the teacher from the ancient times and etc. That's the meaning of Wai kru And actually it's not just Muay thai that do this, most of the thai culture thing have this too, like the dance, performer things, all have this culture, praying to teachers before using it, it's like showing respect to the art.
Oh, so the reason he lean back on the kick is because that umm... go through with it thing If you block it can probably break your arm And it's kinda too fast to dash dodge if it's muaythai kick?
Poonnsit is so low key it's terryfing.
Sensei Taidji Kase and his student sensei Ilija Jorga went to Thailand to try Ilia's skills. Ilija Jorga beat couple of Thai boxing champions, and main impression was that they are very resilient. Hi has to nock them couple of time before they can not stand up again.
BRAZILLLLLL 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Karate looks like its based more on control and power while muay Thai looks like its more focused on unleashing more power, in my opinion
"Jesse, why do you fight a Muay Thai champion?" Jesse: "Because i want to learn martial art the hard way, so that i can upload clips for you guys to see" Me: "You should've fought Tony Jaa"
He's flexible.
Big red flag pausing right before cool thing isn’t cool bro
"Kick boxing was featured in comics and cartoons" *WEEBS: So you have chosen... DEATH*
I'm sure you went in knowing that putting your foot anywhere near someone's face is super disrespectful in the buddhist culture, which is most likely why is was on your ass in .2 seconds when you threw that second kick.
He’s actually THANKING his teacher because we were taught that Muay Thai is a weapon of friends and enemies. In combat your enemy but outside combat your friends.
Looks like youre learning some fighting ;)
Drag them down to solo Kata and beat them with experience. The Karate way. Osu. Lol 😉😘
Maybe you forgot more boxing skills , in close distance 🤔
very good sparring, love to see their passion to their arts
You rock. I feel kinda motivated and almost need to try martial arts again :c
This is fun to watch because of the commentary.
This was awesome.
Great video! One thing i noticed is his body is looser until the moment of strike. Your form is excellent, though rigid perhaps by a mix of nerves and the karate style. I certainly would also be very nervous as well fighting a master. His attitude is great.
I really like the roundhouse comparison, it really sums up the techniques of the two styles. Karate uses a more quick tap to the ribs, while Muay thai is like a fucking baseball bat too the inner organs.
Love the background knowledge you spread 🙏🏼
Everyone gangster till he fights an mma champ
Bro come hawaii lol kick boxing is insane out here
Are you going to start training Muay Thai now? Lol
As a whole Karate is better. But if you’re talking fast learning Muay Thai is much simpler too learn, Very very hard too perfect. Karate is alot more complex and is better but takes a lot longer too learn in its entirety. Imho.
What??? kyo kushin (I hope I wrote it correctly) I was trained this type of karate for like a year
Respect to you both. You are very humble Jessie.
Im doing karate 7 years and normally now i would have black belt but covid19 destroyed us 😭😭
One of my favourite films from you. Tak 😁🇩🇰
Easier said than done. Does not matter on what the martial art is practiced, but how skilled the practioner is. Training as a professional fighter since 9 ... well. He seems like agreat person to train with.
12:59
Karate looks like showing off techniques. Mauy Thai is trying hurt you.
WEE WOO WOO
i found out quickly when i used to enter all styles competitions as a karate based fighter,that our style needs major modifications to hang with a kickboxer,or thai boxer. The karate guard is not tight enough to protect from hook punches especially...which isnt a technique thrown in karate kumite.I went on to thai/kickbox as well as do karate,which then i believe gives you all the benefits of karate striking, and movement,with a far tighter guard of boxing. Also it adds elbows and clinch knee strikes to you attacking ability..It will make you a far more acomplished fighter.
only khabib can beat them all
The humility in this exchange is so refreshing, this is what mixed martial arts is all about.
you know both are great martial artists because they know the most important thing after all is RESPECT
go to mma gym so they can beat you up
That ritual is called the Wy Kru, highly based on their superstitions of good luck and fortune when fighting. Dave LeDuc of lethwei also uses the jabbing kick all the time
Best advice: Do not engage.
Thanks for fillin me up with lots and lots of knowledge
Its funny to see that karate seems do not know anything about muay thai like this weird sounds are not a mindgame Its the same like the " SH SH SH " Boxer do all the time But muay thai use other grunts then in boxing/karate and all the sports Some say its even better to do muay thai sound but its a lot heavier ( Just search for muay thai grunts ) If its better idk Il stay with the " Sh " till im better in muay thai :) ( No hate! )
muay thai is very much better than karate unless a mma fighter who understand a mix martial art will be better ..
sport karate joker? l0l0l0l0l
The beauty of martial arts.
Fight? I wouldn't calling it that.
Jesse: ‘Hi bro, I am about to fight a Muay Tahi champion, what advice do you have for me? Oliver: ‘Just don’t do it’
เหมือนมวยไทยปลอม ต้องเอาbuakaw
Wushu, Karate and Tkd thinks in terms of continuous linear systems and kuzushi. Boxing and muay tai are static, they maintain limited but very firm grounding .There is no kuzushi or exploiting movement imbalances on each step and retreat. Try fighting sanda or kick boxing ...
Soon as that second round kick landed he was like "oh hell nah"😂😂
I don't usually watch your video's! But this video to me is the best video that you hav ever made !! THANK YOU 😁
Thanks a lot! 🙏
the "jab" low kick look like the savate kick "le chassé". There are also forbidden blows in savates that are not in muay thai which makes both boxes very complementary.
I was hoping for a shoryuken to the chest causing a giant scar.
Awesome video! Would love to see you try some Jiu Jitsu.
I love Jiu Jitsu!
Im really tired of art vs art discussion, "Which one is THE best".. I'd say it like this, Any martial art can offer something useful. Its about having an open mind and love what you do.
Wow muay Thai guy can't control his feelings. Gets hit in the head and imedetly gets pissed off
Poonnasit fighting stance is amazing, would be a great fighting game character.
That 'woo woo' noise is sound when Thai boxers throw punches like boxing and karate. It a sound that Thai people make when we satisfy with something.
This is so awesome man
Great job at staying in character 🙏🙏
Why would you fight a real fighter 😂
For your entertainment!
All the weird noises and laughing are because Thai fighters never spar hard. Sparring is playing. Thai people save the fight for the fight, sparing is just for training muscle memory.
4:21 he literally looks like the most innocent man and then you see him fight
Hey Jesse, love your channel. I'm the guy who's always saying that you're going to be the guy who saves Karate in the new era of BJJ/MMA dominance. So, my black belt was in Isshinryu and I've dabbled in Mixed Martial Arts and TaeKwonDo. I've NEVER liked the axe-kick because if your opponent catches said kick they can take out your supporting leg or worse, hyper-extend the axe-kicking leg. My question is, do you personally see value in the axe-kick?
i think the main reason karate does win against what ever is because there is less sport technique behind it. if it was you or him being able to walk out alive its anyones game but since it was sport you had to Jesse needed to move more and needed to be more aggressive
Almost read it as Kuroki Gensai
White dude looks like his kicks are strong and effortless, and if he unleashed it for real, it would definitely fuck your ass all the way up! 🤕
soo a white man is going to restore the honor of karate
Great content! And yeah man you lost but you got a New subscriber.
Thanks!
I took both kickboxing and muay thai in the same gym so I learned boxing/kartee and muay thai in tandem, it's weird for me to think of them as separate.
i think the muay ta fighter just enjoy the fight xD
Karate practitioners always keep their hand guard low and most of them never follow up with their kicks because they are so used to skin contact kicks and punches and not to the face but only to the chest (kumite rules). Henceforth making karate a somewhat obsolete art form unless you practise it with other full contact striking art forms like muay thai or Dutch kickboxing. Even though these styles have been influenced by karate itself, the rules of these combat styles allow for more freedom to dish out damage.
What i want to know is why you fight in a karate style?
Muay thai 👌💪🙌
He did not pray to the gods. But I paid respect to his Muay Thai teacher. It's a tradition to do these things. Sorry I may have typed something strange. I am using google translate.
U don't know even Karate,thats funny 😄🤣
5.14 the thing he do is "ไหว้ครู" or pray for teacher you can tell what part of Thailand or sub-style of him by look at this movement if you familar with muay thai enough It is culture form ancient that we fight in the ground not in the ring so fighter need to look around the ground for know how surface it is and take adventage with it
he was summoning fighting demons
Hitting the head in Muay Thai is disrespectful Senpai. Especially since it was a spar
5:00 that is tradition from Cambodia from the art called” bokator” it is about asking the spiritual to save and make you stronger...
We called Wai Kru ใหว้ครู in Thailand
5:58 I'm surprised you've never seen a teep to the thigh before. They're a common technique in Muay Thai.
similar kicks...only mui thai looks intent on destroying rather than looking cool
Muchas gracias sensei, usted hace una admirable labor educativa. oss
Only one who can do karate justice in the UFC against Muay Thai is Wonderboy.
Whatch saenchai train..really dangerous
10:57-11:14. Sage advice.
Sorry but if a Muay Thai artist and karate artist faced off Muay Thai would murder every time
My phone hanged at exactly 2:46. I thought I was being trolled.
Why are Nok Muay's always stripped of half of their arsenal when they fight Karateka's?
When you got that head kick he got excited and had to catch himself.
The difference was really experience and many Karate people simply don't know how to deal with leg kicks.
Much respect to you for all your efforts. Unbiased, accepting of international historical influences, fair, and investigative. Thanks for real. Good work.
What TF pet aek it ther miss your guy.
Dude let me watch the sparring dont interrupt I have eyes also goddamn...
MT fighters especially from Thailand are machines
this is beautiful mate, I'm literally crying here. Its interesting how different martial arts have so much in common. Also I got really pumped. I think theres a kickboxing gym close to home..
