Ok guys, Most of you know about the claim of tai boxers beating down Chinese Boxing practitioners back in 1922.
So lets talk about today (2002) internal practitioners (Tai Chi, Ba Gua, Hsing Yi.) If you had to fight a professional Muay Thai fighter, what strategy would you utilize to beat him. How would you test his weapons, determining his strongest and weakest points?
I myself would try to close the gap on a tai fighter, tie up his hands in a clinch and try to lock his legs. Getting in close and throwing him to the ground would be one of my objectives. But if its extremely difficult to utilize throwing techniques then I would just neutralize and simultaneously counterstrike his attacks.
My major combat strategy for beating a Muay Thai fighter would be a combination of striking, locking and throwing for me to be effective.
What would be your method and strategy?
