Between two equally trained and athletic individuals, the kickboxer would win because he has superior reach with his legs. But the better option is to cross train in both.
“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
Boxing vs Kickboxing

- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
That's arguable, since the kickboxer is more used to getting hit often, rather than getting hit hard, which could lead him to KO within two punches by an equally trained boxer. HOWEVER, if it's a passive boxer, which means that he usually plays his matches by waiting, avoiding hits and making matches last long, then the kickboxer has an advantage, because he could easily surprise the boxer with a fast kick, while he looks out for a punch.Shiftkey said:Between two equally trained and athletic individuals, the kickboxer would win because he has superior reach with his legs.

However, if we are talking about something like a high school fight, IMO the boxer has an advantage. I mean, I'd prefer to get hit by a kick of Jerome Le Banner's rather than a punch of Tyson's.
Agreed, though i think mirko's left high kick would be worse again. Apart from Mark Hunt he has virtually knocked everyone out with one blow when connecting properly with that high kick to the head!Adone said:I mean, I'd prefer to get hit by a kick of Jerome Le Banner's rather than a punch of Tyson's.

This is the fight between Vitor Belfort (boxer) and Wandrei Silva (Muay Thai)

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

he still is!! he is the current middleweight champion in pride, nice fight though. Rumor has it, UFC are trying to sign him from pride. If so, his fight with chuck will be awesome
i'd prefer boxing over kickboxing. like bruce lee once said, “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” boxers are dangerous to be messing around with. first of all they're not even afraid to hit you so you won't even see it coming when they do.

geoff thompson, a renowned 'street' martial artist wrote a book about his experiences as a bouncer in some of the worst clubs/pubs in england.
he says boxing is the best, since most fights take place (or at least start) at about 18 inches apart. the punch is the quickest and best way to go for a KO. kicks are best when the guy is on the ground. thompson ends most fights
in a few seconds with one shot to the chin.
im a boxer and a bit biased, though i have practiced elbows and occasionally knees. ive done brief freestyle sparring, and found i won the stand-up easily but was clueless in a clinch or on the ground.
on the streets, you dont wan tto be on the ground, it drags out too long and he might have some friends nearby ready to stomp on your head.
the punch is the best, elbwos are good too. a crash course for kicking when he's down and wrestling is in order, in case you dofnt ko him early and it ends in a clinch.

lets not forget ufc is not a steet fight saimulator. on the stret you arent allowed to go 5 minutes without interrutpion. you do not start 20 feet apart have a huge deal of free space. its not 1v1.
the best thing to learn is stret fighting. ball-kicking, suckerpunching, posturing (pretending your friends then hitting while hes disarmed or acting really crazy and violent to scare him), headbutting, using weapons. also controlling adrenaline fear.

You can't base yourself on Wikipedia definitions. However, in that very page, it's said that "Kickboxing has its roots in Muay Thai". Which clearly implies that Muay Thai CANNOT be a part of Kickboxing, if any it's the contrary.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Secondly, even if you can call him a boxer, he lost to Chuck Liddell, who is primarily a kickboxer, so the point is irrelevent.
