i did it for about 2 years in oregon it was fun the conditioning was the toughest part though just trading kicks to the mid section and inner thighs constantly but the 2 fights ive been in since then it has been effective

alot of people i know, training in boxing, have tried it before, but didn't like getting kicked, so they stopped......
I love Muay Thai but I was better with my hands.

Boxing is so much beautiful and is a sweet science.
What do you think Remy Bonjasky would've done to an Ali type of mover ? All that bouncin' around, Remy would've destroyed Ali's legs.

i do both....
boxing is really important for the footwork and movement..
u can just get better and better by doing both...
many pro boxers like vitali klitschko did kickboxing be4 they tunred into boxing..
Boxing is an olympic sport, so there's a lot more money than in kickboxing/Muay Thai
i love both sports

I box but did some muay thai. I only box now because I dont see much point in concentrating your efforts into 2 different sports specially if you wanna be very good at 1 and compete at it. Seeing as I boxed before and much more experienced at it, I chose that, plus Im not the most flexible of people so not a kicker.

The thing about kickboxing or MT is it's hard to find a gym/school that has legit instructors. Especially in the states. Holland and parts of Eastern Europe they are a dime a dozen
With that being said if you are trying to take classes solely for enjoyment or to get a good workout or for self defense. I think MT or Kickboxing is a no brainer.
I'd rather have 8 weapons than 2. It's simple mathematics and logic.
