How do you fight in a muey tai tournie if you haven't trained in the style? They don't allow me to compete although I'd trained years in TCMA

Depends largely on the rules they are using in the tournament.
You probably need to find out what rules they will be using. If it's thai rules then punches, kicks elbows and knees are all allowed, as is fighting in the clinch. Some places don't allow all these moves however.
As a kung fu and Muay Thai practicioner i know they work hard at body conditioning, so you'd want to make sure that your conditioning is up to scratch.
Maybe they only want Muay Thai stylists in this tournament? Who knows?

It's because they don't want to see you get hurt, my friend. that may be insulting to you, but you have to see things from their point of view.Originally Posted by Vasquez

It's been a while since I have actively been on this forum, but it's surprising to me that Vasquez is still around. Considering the spelling of the style, it's no wonder they wouldn't allow you to compete, because "they" do not exist, just as your knowledge of MA and training do not. I wouldn't allow you to compete in a boksing match if I ran the show.

You are more likely to fall down the stairs and break your neck if you live in a house with stairs. You are more likely to be in a car accident if you drive to work. You are more likely to be kicked in the nuts or punched in the nose if you practicing the martial arts. - Judge Pen

They don't let inmates of insane asylums compete in practical shooting matches either.
all kidding aside, they won't let you compete is likely due to you not being able to meet the criteria, not understanding the rules, not having a legit background etc etc.
If you were up to speed on the ruleset, could demonstrate that you desreve to compete, then I don't think there would be any issues at all.
also, if you could at least spell it properly on the application would be awesome!
Kung Fu is good for you.

It would also help alot if you actually tried to enter a competition.
A man has only one death. That death may be as weighty as Mt. Tai, or it may be as light as a goose feather. It all depends upon the way he uses it....

I can do kick and punches no sweat. Gloves might restrict what i can do with TCMA but I still have forearms for blocking right?

last weekend in hampton, virginia there were 2 fighters who entered from chinese martial arts institute out of mclean, virginia. not sure that the anit-kung fu bias exists from the thai camp.
-Jack Dempsey ch1 pg1 Championship FightingWhat would happen if a year-old baby fell from a fourth-floor window onto the head of a burly truck driver, standing on the sidewalk?
It's practically certain that the truckman would be knocked unconscious. He might die of brain concussion or a broken neck.
Even an innocent little baby can become a dangerous missile WHEN ITS BODY-WEIGHT IS SET INTO FAST MOTION.

the thai dont care. my master fought thai matches in thailand during his youth.
if you want to fight, you can fight. if anything pit fights are open grounds for any style.

ok i'm going to thailand end of next month to do some pit fighting. i've trained 20 years in wudang shaloin, clf, hung gar, wing chun, meditation, form training and scapped a lot like a boxer in my youth. also done some bjj, high kicks in tkd and breaking skills in karate.

ray is that you? hahahaha
dude! even if you trained in these styles doesnt mean a thing, if you havent done any sparring youre not going to be happy after and a few days after the fight . in order to fight you need conditioning , cardio and actually fighting technique. dont do the traditional mistake of hey i know TCMA so i can fight, its not true. you may know how to do forms but not fight.
If a pipe hits you and no one is around, would you make a sound?

I really don't get how saying rediculous things like this and posting endless dribble can be so enjoyable. Do you really think that your are cool or something doing this?
To some I have little character value. My friends know the truth. Guess which of the two I give two shiats about.
