Real Muay thai fighters have awesome standing grappling . They will control ,throw and sweep your legs . The only thing a skilled Thai fighter needs to learn is ground fighting and then all the lower weight classes of mma would be rule by thai dudes

Thai grappling doesn't work because most of the center of gravity is on the upper body. As soon as a person with a wrestler's stance went against a thaiboxer, sweeps would stop working. The same goes for Thai clinch.

@@janl4062 Thai clinch in Thailand often looks pretty similar to Greco wrestling (underhooks, overhooks, body locks, etc.), which is a major component of freestyle. They might be missing the element of leg grabs, but there is a huge amount of overlap between Thai grappling and western wrestling except with the added element of elbow and knee strikes. People call the double collar tie "Thai clinch," but you very rarely see it used in Thailand unless there is a big skill/size disparity.

The reason BJJ has become cult because it reinforces the belief that fighting is just like making the right move in chess and you can beat anyone. This isn't how reality is. Seen wrestlers dominate BJJ guys and especially catch wrestling all the time. Then Muay Thai kicks are so insane BJJ guys can barely grapple after that. Plus sheer strength with little bit of fighting knowledge can be game changer.

I've seen way too many grappler mistake their, "if you get that close to me I can grab you and take you down" and wind up getting their skull beat in by the right or left hand of a striker while they are tryimg just that.

Wrestling better than bij because more takedown/throw focused. Works great on concrete and keeps you standing up. Also people tend to stop fighting back if you throw them on the curb lol. Best thing is to learn everything and specialize on 1 thing. Most (if not all) MMA champions are at least decent at every aspect, but amazing at a certain thing. Like Stephen Thompson. He's decent at wrestling and takedown defense, he has to be to survive grapplers. But he's amazing at striking.

What Joes saying reminds me of James Toney's remarks before his fight with Couture. He said "Idc about no 'martial arts'. You put any man in front of me and I can knock him out". He thought. And to be fair, he was a multiple weight world champion boxer, if youre facing a guy who cannot fight or is trying to box with you, 100% youll knock him out, but if he shoots in for a quick takedown it's over. Suddenly youre on your back like a turtle.

I understand Jocko’s point at the end about getting close to a guy to strike, consequently giving the grappler an opportunity to take the other guy down, however if the striker knows how to strike well he can maintain some distance, throw some vicious combos and have the grappler on the back foot. In fact, if he’s a proficient striker he will likely knock the grappler out before the fight ever goes to the ground be it a leg kick, elbow or punch.

So if you only had to choose one style, which one would it be for self-defense in a real situation?

One had a Mui thai vs Ju jitsu fight and it was just a bad beating for the ju jistu guy He git lit up every time he tried to get closer and the fight was stopped because his leg was smashed

i'd rather be a Golden belt Muai thai than the Gracie style of Boring.

The real problem I find with bjj guys he they can't take hits. You hit with a good kick or punch especially if ll they do is train striking. You've never been punched and kicked unless it was a boxer punching you or a Thai fighter kicking you.

Tbh, ground fights are freaking boring to watch. Which is why the most exciting fight to watch are both strikers. If you want to watch ground fights, just watch wrestling or BJJ Championship match.

Both BJJ and Muay Thai are great but as Joe said a fight starts standing and ill put all my eggs in one basket and say if you are a really and I mean really good Mauy Thai fighter a BJJ guy or girl will get knocked out trying to take you down.

As a striker myself I give the win to grappling in general - whether wrestling or BJJ. But if we break down which type of fight then that's a whole different story. Against multiple people? boxing. Followed by Muay Thai. Unless you're like me and way better at kicks than anything then Muay Thai first place. But thinking average dude no shoulder problems etc. Boxing first Against a guy your size? Wrestling or BJJ Against a guy much bigger than you? BJJ
