Greatest 'kick'boxer of all time

[JustOnce]

In Muaythai, you have Apidet, Diselnoi and Samart.

In boxing, you have Sugar Ray Robinson, and lots of other candidates I suppose.

Who is the greatest kickboxer of all time?

I don't know half of these guys... Do you mean most skilled? Many would say Petrosyan

 

[My2Cents]

Look for Ramon Dekkers!

 

[Cocakillbana]

I was under the impression Aerts was most commonly viewed as the greatest. Accomplishment and longevity.

Ernesto Hoost / Peter Aerts / Semmy Schilt

That's a great trio, just missing Giorgio Petrosyan.

Here's a nice take on the subject:

[Kanka]

What makes all these heavyweights greater than guys like Buakaw, Masato, Andy Souwer, Petrosyan?

Probably they aren't. Just like how Karelin isn't better than Saitiev. People just have an irrational fondness for heavyweights.

 

[Yodsanan]

Petrosyan or Buakaw.

 

[Julius_Caesar]

Petrosyan

 

[kwankaodaddy]

Prime Buakaw / Masato / Souwer.

All of them can beat Petrosyan for sure.

I don't ever see Souwer or Masato beating Petrosyan.

 

[UWanaPlayDaGame]

Messi?!
PELE !!!

Messi is better than Pelé.

Semmy Schilt is the most accomplished kickboxer of all time but damn me if he's the "greatest". I may be biased but I think I'd pick Buakaw.
