APinoySuperHero [.PrettyHateMachine.] ... Muay Thai beats both Not really well depending on what Kenpo your talking about. There is chinese kenpo that in our society wouldnt work very well. Then there is Ed Parker Kenpo which if used correctly could dominate. Though if you really think about it, the martial artist himself has more do with the martial art style itself. If we were talking about a no-holds fight to the death Kenpo is supperior to Tae Kwon Do and Muay Thai. Muay Thai has great clinch control kicks and knees but, they still abide by rules unlike Kenpo where we will hit you in the groin rake your eye and punch you in the throat. Tae Kwon Do the weakest link in this disscussion by far in my opinion has great foot work and kicks but, fails in most other aspects. To many times I see in sparring matches where all Tae Kwon Do does is just kick and never follow up with a backnuckle or a reverse punch. Its terrible. Another problem with Tae Kwon Do along with Muay Thai is the fact it totally negates people who grapple now. Who can double leg you or just straight up head lock you and pound from full mount. There is no defense to someone who is an experinced wrestler or some sort of ground fighting expert who knows how to take you to the floor. All in I think Kenpo is one of the best martial art styles. So Kenpo>Tae Kwon Do That is your oppinion, but I personally take TKD and I am a 2nd Black belt, and whilst I was in a competition I punched my oppoenent in the stomach, bear in mind he was wearing padding which is lined with first wool padding and then wood, I broke the wood and made him cough up blood. It all depends on how deteremined the fighter is to win, to how hard they hit. [I broke my knuckles with that punch] |
