Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Pretty crazy video of 2 kids having a kick boxing fight and one of them knocks the other clean out. I think it's insane that kids that young are dealing out head blows like that. Your brain obviously isn't fully developed by that point and getting knocked out at such a young age, not to mention the regular shots they are no doubt taking in training, are devastating for your development. Still...it was amusing to watch. Little savages, the one clearly wanted it more than the other one.
I think all children would benefit from some form of martial arts training, but full contact competition at that age is wrong imo. That kid was out, no one should be experiencing that kind of KO regardless of how old you are and because it's a kid it makes it harder to watch.

Has nothing to do with that, in straight kick boxing fights they play music during the entire fight and the fighters will actually pace themselves to the music. It's hard to explain. A lot of Thai kick boxers are notorious for starting off really slow because the starting parts of the music is slow, they literally train themselves to the pace of the music. It sounds crazy, but it's true. It's also very common for fighters to do a Wai Kru dance/performance before each fight in the ring. It's often tradition. I really wish just straight kick boxing would reach the level of success as MMA has. It's fucking incredible to watch.
