Everything Muay Thai +1 Best sport on the planet..IMHO

As someone whose level of combat proficiency is "That's my purse; I don't know you!" this is most impressive

The way she jerks her head when she makes a big move looks odd to me. Is that intentional?

Psh ! I can take her...if I lose 40 lbs, train for a decade, and pay someone to fight her for me, no biggie.

she is tough ..

The snap in her kicks. If she makes contact, you're gonna seriously feel that shit.

Stamp Fairtex!!! She's awesome.

This is Exactly how I felt at improve-night!
GozerTheGozerian
Got hit with a little bit of nostalgia watching that. Since I was little my sister (older than me by 1 year) was in kickboxing, she was (and still is) huge into it, and I'd go to her training sessions after my own gymnastics practices were over and just watch her smack bags and her coaches in pads until training for that day was done and then we'd walk home together.

Oh man, Stamp was just on the MMAhour yesterday, now FP of imgur, she debuted in the US on 5/5/23, she is a ONE fighter.
Angel337
What's a "ONE fighter"?
LordSkrolk

dirtyward420
ONE is a MMA promotion based out of Asia, 2nd largest in the world, muy tai, kickboxing, jujitsu, MMA, overall great company
eronth
Is it normal for her to be jerking her head that much? That seems not great.
Sevulturus
She specifically has had belts in three different sports, mma muai Tai and bjj. I assume whatever she's doing is the correct way.
HaikuSorrow
I used to do it at an amateur level, and I agree. But, not a pro, so who knows. Seems bad for the neck.
Turdsandwich10
As others said in MT your really going all in and pulling with the other half of your body. It's not necessary to do it to throw a kick in general, but it's very appropriate for MT
WrongUn
Its fairly normal. MT kicks get a lot of power from the hips. When they whip toward your opponent, your body's momentum will invariably tug your head a bit. Mine doesn't jerk that much but then I'm betting she's more powerful than me
WilliamHuskerAdama
Is it normal for imgur users to question 2 time world champions on their own sport? That seems not great. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stamp_Fairtex)
Turdsandwich10
Lmao... yeah
djzapz
It seemed strange to me too, as someone who knows nothing about this, and I was also wondering the same thing. I had no idea that she was a world champion, all I know is that if I moved my head around like that I'd instantly get injured. So I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt.
GiveYourBallsATug69
Appeal to false authority, buddy. You can be a champion at a physical sport and an overall badass without necessarily knowing everything about the human body and the side-effects of doing something for too long. Many athletes damage their body from doing stuff they shouldn't.
WilliamHuskerAdama
Appeal to false authority only applies when the one being referred to has no authority or knowledge in the field being discussed. Assuming a 2-time world champion knows what she's doing is fair
alcaray
If fighters - even successful ones - did not have bad habits then they would not need coaches.
Larktonguesinadicecup
It is normal.
Mongicane
In high school I got a PE credit for standing in at a women’s defense class (straight male btw) wore pads like these and just stood around getting my shit wrecked by a line of girls. Best “class” I ever took, and I’m not even into that kind of thing.

You're telling me I'm immune to martial arts just wearing those pads in specific places? 🤔

If you're on the ground you're doing wrong...
relsky
I did martial arts as a kid, so decided to volunteer to be the practice dummy in a self-defense class for girls at my school. They didn't let me watch them practice, and to this day I have no idea how I was flipped and thrown so many different ways. It was great.

fitgirl1
Bear in mind that holding the pads can lead to concussion like symptoms and brain damage for real
TheoreticalString
Only if you're holding the pads with your head. Do not hold the pads with your head my dude.
oocelScifiVillain
Mu cousin talked me into doing the exact same thing. We both took turns getting wrecked. I'm still great friends with all those ladies
DanielWhiffin
You, sir, should join a Krav Maga class. Excellent cardio, full body workout, and you walk away feeling like a complete badass. Also bruised. We call bruises a "Krav Tan".
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
Sounds like fun. I don't understand why you felt the need to share that you were straight though lmao. Do you think doing something like this normally makes you gay? Honestly don't get it.
starrs3
Maybe its just his identity. 🤷‍♀️
BrdCdn
Yeah I don't see an issue with it either way.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
There's no issue. I'm just not understanding how it's relevant information. Seem out of the ordinary to blurt out your orientation from left field is all I'm reacting to
BrdCdn
I'll agree to that. It shouldn't matter.
weerdo
I do the same thing but adults.. I train cops in self defense and teach different arresting methods.. I always tell them to give it all during training so they learn to be proportional
ChristopherHallett
You train them to mag-dump into the backs of children running from them? Well, I hope it at least pays well.
weerdo
I don't live in the states.. im dutch, we have morals and values, and like the rest of the world we have bad apples. Besides the police, imo, are a reflection of society.. so they are like the rest of the country.. if there are so many bad apples in a country's police force, the citizens aren't that much different or better.
ChristopherHallett
Ahh yes, the old "cops wouldn't murder people if they didn't deserve it" argument. Well done outing yourself as a fascist.

You can enjoy stuff without getting aroused. I wouldn't get an erection (I don't think?) over it but I'd be really impressed if some lady threw me around because she was paying attention in class. That would be rad.

Love Muay Thai, it's a badass martial art. No showy flippy acrobatic bullshit, just straight up ass kicking.
adognamedpumpkin
I took a Khmer kickboxing class in Phnom Penh from an old guy in his driveway. He said, “You gave 100%. It amounted to 20-30%, but you gave 100%.”

Too bad in Thailand it's corrupt as fuck and fights are rigged all the time.
flexibleocelot
None if the rank nonsense either. You want a belt? Win it in the ring.
justatinyduck
Still nothing near what the god of death (nickname), Apachai Hopachai was able to do in Mhuai Thai.
MadamPuddifoot
My one boxing coach just startwd teaching me muy thai moves, and one was like a spinning elbow follow through thing. I landed it like 20 times (on his hands) and realized driving home that I was bruised as FUCK on my elbow lol. I might have to start training it more, I'm 5'10 with long legs and a lot of power... But I will never spar Cuz my brain is my paycheck lol
keyblader1985
And you can straight up murder someone if you're not careful
talanthalas11
Yeah; Modern Muay Thai is a sport, but it's a sport derived from a literal battleground martial art, that ITSELF is derived from an even more vicious battleground martial art.
talanthalas11
I pity the thief that tries to rob a Muay Thai practitioner.
forResearchPurposesOnly
On top of that it’s super complex and super subtle.
BurningVeryImportantThings
There is something very satisfying about dropping a bomb switch kick after a tight jab, cross, hook combo. Feels soooo good!
forResearchPurposesOnly
Yea man. I feel that. Personally no plans to compete, but spar at least once a week. Hard not to get obsessed lol. Have never come even close in any other sport or MA that hits all the notes like MT.
BurningVeryImportantThings
Same here I grew up around martial arts and trained in a variety of styles and disciplines but I never competed. Competition was my brothers thing and he took home a shit load of trophies and medals. MT hits much harder than anything else I ever trained. It's super functional in real life and absurdly effect against some jerk who doesn't know what they are doing. Its hard fast and accurate and a great way to stay in shape. It's can brutal to get into class shape but worth it in the long term.
BurningVeryImportantThings
I'm a south paw naturally but trained right handed for years so my switch kicks are legit stronger than my standard rear kicks.
Rosfmmmhzdrozzley
Those elbows they throw are bruuuutal. You don't see it quite the same in ufc, not sure why
BryanLaserEpee
Bones Jones had elbows for days.
Miller16of16
The kicks are incredibly difficult for most non-MT trained people to deal with, and the shin conditioning is priceless. I once nearly dropped a sparring partner in Kuntao class with a block when it hit shin to shin. Foot jabs are damn handy too.
pharmie01
But when it goes wrong….I don’t know how people walk afterwards
Miller16of16
It always hurts the other guy more. I learned over 20years ago, IDK how they condition shins now, but did a lot of rolling with wood dowel and tapping with a handful of heavy gauge solid wire. Took over a decade for me to feel contact surface and I can still pound em in on the bottom of a heavy bag. Rough housing at fam reunion, nephew kicked me solid in the shin w/ steel toe (he knew I’d trained MT), just felt a little warm. These days I only practice foot jabs, round kicks R brutal on my hips
TheFoodBaby
They usually don't with a broken shin
TheWeirdGuyBehindYou
It's brutal. Anderson Silva never recovered.
quadraspaz1
My shins were wrecked when I did Muay Thai, covered in hard lumps, but the worst example is a fight you can find online where the guy throwing a kick snapped both his shin bones so his lower leg wrapped around the defender. He then briefly stood on the bent mid-shin before falling over. It's sickening to see
Miller16of16
Yeah, that was baad. One thing that stuck with me after it was demo’d on a bag I was holding - aim to draw through the kick like a blade, instead of snapping it at the knee and landing like a hammer head. It penetrates more, although also telegraphs more. Ultimately I stopped using kicks entirely for self defense with exception of horse shoe/ stomp kick.
pharmie01
Yes that’s exactly the imaging that’s stuck in my head. It’s like watching a horse with a broken leg trying to stand
