  • bdruckus, I ...

    bdruckus, I apologize for that assumption - it's just that I meet too many "kickboxers" who don't have good hands and get totally run over when they face someone who kickboxes but has good boxing skills. I'd actually like to clarify then - in boxing there are different types of hooks. The one this guy is throwing some boxers throw almost as an Muay Thai elbow. The more commonly used kickboxing hook that's more "ranged" also exists in boxing, to come out of the opponent's field of vision.

    I practice muay thai. I'm just used to bringing those sorts of punches in and swinging too widely. He keeps a good job of keeping his body centered and throwing the punches from his hip. You could actually just ask me why i've formulated my opinion instead of assuming i've never boxed.

  • Not really - if you ...

    Not really - if you want to get technical, Dutch kickboxing is boxing + Kyokushin vs. Muay Thai. Kickboxing also pertains to a full contact karate fighting, which really doesn't cut it today. Watching K-1, you'll see that Thai guys sometimes work their hands differently, but EVERYONE is solidly boxing and doing Muay Thai style kicks. A few notable exceptions who pull off ax kicks and spinning kicks, but those guys are relatively few.

  • LOL? Kickboxing = ...

    LOL? Kickboxing = many martial arts mixed, some of this arts came from asian places, but the kickboxing itself got created at the USA (some people say that it was started at the 60's japan and finished at 70's USA, but even beeing that, the nowadays kickboxing isn't asian).

  • These videos are ...

    These videos are actually a good supliment for a beginner who has just started kickboxing. I have, and though I have recieved some teaching in basic techniques, punches, etc. the instructor can't devote his time to taking it slow with me, since there are others in the class who have been practicing long. So, thank you to the guy who made this, this enables me to do some slow practice at home.
