By that rational Kung Fu isn't a martial art!!!

Yes, i know u went to fairtex, they may believe that kickboxing and Muai thai are one but that dont means its true. Like i said,go to Thailand where muai thai was originated and asked if they are the same. Then ur ignorance will be exposed.

kick boxing-liddel
over all coach for mma would be nathan marquadt

ps. kickboxing is muay thai without the elbow and knees

Okay and thats why its called Muai thai and not kickboxing. B/c they use clinches, elbows, knees etc.

No Sh!t but it is still Kickboxing some forms of Kempo use knees and Elbows too.... What you can say is not all Kickboxing is Muay Thai and that would be more acurate.

Thats why I picked Tito for Wrestling...I have his Island videos and he is a great coach...have to make this note- I have had them before TUF3 and have always liked Tito and thought his jerkiness was an act. (something about how he got all butt hurt when he felt Chuck turned on him)

Who would u get?

Kickboxing - DUke Rufus
BJJ - Eddie Bravo
Wrestling - Dan Gable(the man knows his stuff)
Muai Thai - I think I'd go boxing instead and go with either Manny Stewart, or Roger Mayweather

You know come to think of it as a wrestling coach if not Dan Gable, then John Smith, either has forgotten more about wrestling then any of us know.

I also think that I would like Forrest Griffin to work with me on interview skills, that dude is freaking hilarious

So theyre not the same! U dont have Ramon Decker Rob Kaimon as ur muai thai coach cuz he's a kickboxer.

I thought this was a thread about coaches not fighting styles, start another thread and let the rest of us make our dream coaching groups.
