How many active kickboxers have a top 100 "kick fighting" résumé?

[Snubnoze707]

Damn, just got in that edit before it shows you edited. You must've been late reading my follow-up post. Ha

I decided to go a different direction with that post, not noticing this stupid draft feature on this forum left that behind. This forum is horrific on mobile. It wasn't even a completed paragraph...

 

[Snubnoze707]

Believe me, I've done more to promote Muay Thai than you.

Why'd ya delete the other paragraph? Ha

How is that even relevant? I never claimed to have done anything to promote Muay Thai. I'm also not complaining about its coverage...

I pretty much edit every post I make after posting them. I wasn't hiding anything, if you want to go the route I initially started we can. You created this thread to stir up shit and you got it. Don't even act like this was supposed to be a serious discussion.

Lol

The paragraph you deleted was right in line with the trite way of responding that I brought up. That's why you deleted it.

It was a serious question. I was curious. What's so absurd about it? I hear it's absurd, but nobody is proving it is absurd.

I'll gladly leave this place if someone can guide me to where I'd better fit. If not, I'm an anarchist stuck in capitalism, literary fiction stuck in popular fiction, pure math stuck in physics etc... I don't like it either.

This thread is a perfect example of hypocrisy. The same people who cry about me going into the kickboxing threads, and who claim I ruin the discussion, have now come in here, or on twitter, and ruined the discussion.

"You're a hipster"

What does that have to do with the thread?

"I challenge you to a bet"

What does that have to do with the thread?

"The problem with Muay Thai is..."

What does that have to do with the thread?

You don't like the thread? Why respond? That's what you fuckers tell me. So, now what?

You have misinterpreted the sentiment. Its not posts being peripheral that people find distasteful, at least not primarily. You think it trite, but it really is the way you go about it that tends too rub people the wrong way. Like I said I think you could reach more fans with your message if you went about it differently.

The fact that you guys get in an uproar over one person is quite amusing. That one person has drastically different views. THAT is the problem. But I am the intolerant one. Ok!

We love you bud.

Have you considered learning Thai? Maybe there are some Thai message boards that would make you feel at home.

No

I don't have the attention span to do something like learn a language unless I'm thrown into it.

you are so cool and different from the rest

Thanks

Imagine what I would be like if I wasn't schizophrenic and dealing with severe brain fog all the time.

well if what you are saying is true (and i dont have a reason to doubt you), then I really think you are coping quite well with it on here. but snubnozes point is still valid: the way you go about your passion for muay thai is not what will make people more interested in the sport and all it's details. you have to somewhat accept that not all martial arts fans and even mt fans are as passionate as you are or have the time and will to get to that 'level'

bashing kickboxing wont do you any good

and however much more there'd be out there.

Yay! we are glad you value glory news when they cant spell fighters names correctly or give the proper facts when they write articles about fighters. Instead they write bullshit with crazy made up claims about glory and the fighters in these articles and yet you think that makes it more informative than actulal accurate factual information like fight cards. Second of all if you want info on specific promotions there is this thing called facebook that is more popular in thailand than anywhere else in the world.

You have boat yindee the head of petchviset ( and get this he can even speak the almighty english language so most of you would not even consider him a savage) on there talking and having chats with fans about what fights they would like to see every week. Hell he even has contests before all of his shows where if you pick the fights correctly he will wire you some money to your bank account. It is not like this fucking info is hard to find it is all just one google search away but i guess that is just too damn hard to figure out for most of you

Ya but look your just pointing back to the usual suspect. In general this place is not a toxic cesspit, theirs just always gotta be one or two assholes. Now we got Coca doing it with Muay Thai, I guess he always has but he's ramped it up lately, then we had guys like stmarcus and Brock doing it for Kickboxing. You can't paint the whole forum a certain way because of these posters. Like, what has @SuperLuigi done for example to be lumped into a cesspit, or you for that matter? You've been posting here for years.

The same usual suspect that invades every thread and tries to derail it. I don't mind the dipshittery of individuals as I can put them on the ignore list when they start bugging me, but it seems like every thread just devolves into one of these "muay thai doesn't get enough attention" whinefests as people respond to Coca.

I've been here for a while and has slowly acclimated as this place festered. I know there's enough info in these forums, but I would probably stay away if I were completely new here. Its hardly a surprise that overall activity is down and guys who were contributing just a year ago aren't posting anymore.

You guys exaggerate the amount of threads that are supposedly being ruined. At least by me. I don't even click on most kickboxing threads. Thirty threads on the first page, mostly about kickboxing, and I've not touched almost all of them.

Every few months I say Takeru hasn't done much to deserve his status as a fighter, and occasionally I'll say something negative about kickboxing in general. Big deal. Again, it's not nearly as often, or catostrophic as you and others make it out to be.

Prove that overall activity is down. What posters were contributing just over a year ago that no longer are? Also, who IS contributing now that weren't a year ago? I see a lot on the latter.

 

[DastardlyMass]

I think they must be adding the threads i ruin to your total. one of them tried to get me banned last week but apparently all the mod did was delete one post of mine and then it will not let me post on that thread anymore after i called out snub on his bullshit

There was never a discussion in the first place, you created a silly thread that was obviously going to end in style bashing, and you answered your own question with your own subjective answer. It's just you talking to yourself...

When someone asked you from the first page of this thread about the top100 you have in mind, you just ignore the question and try to push your subjective view that there are so few active kickboxers in the 'top100 of kick-fighting'. Where can we even find that top100?

Then you say things like 'Muay Thai is more available than kickboxing' and when people argue against that and explain why Kickboxing is more accessible in the Western World you just can't accept their view.

Your posts are most of the time about how Muay Thai is the best, Kickboxing and other arts are shit, and you just can't accept that people might have a different opinion or even be more diverse and less elitist than you and actually appreciate different things.

How was I subjective? I gave perfect reasoning why so few kickboxers could be considered. Do good Thais fight more often and against better completion? That's an example of being objective and thinking it out.

Nobody argued against that. You made this entire thing up.

Wrong. A small percentage of my posts are about how kickboxing is shit. Nice of you to exaggerate like everyone else.

 

[Cocakillbana]

The Chinese used to make it incredibly difficult to cover. But, they've gotten a hell of a lot better in the last year or so once they recognized they have a sizable English-speaking audience.

You're just going to ignore that part where you slandered me? Post #57. Why would you make that up? I haven't had anything to do with you in years, even talking about you on here. I thought you were the mature one?

I agree with everybody

A rank of best fighters is always subjective, especially a ranking of different fight sports combined like you're talking about. Literally a top100 list of active 'kick-fighters' by best résumé doesn't even exist anywhere. Then you say there are about 5 Kickboxers in that list and give 3 names. Where do those numbers even come from? You take those numbers out of nowhere and can't even come up with your top100 list when people ask you about it, hell you don't even suggest a top10 or top20 list. That's being subjective.

Then you say "So, we're all in agreement that 97/100 most accomplished "kick fighters" in the world are Muay Thai fighters, and 99/100 are Thais?"
No one is even answering your thread question or agreeing with you, you're making your own conclusions from your own answers. Again, that's being subjective.

Nobody argued against that. You made this entire thing up.

I suggest you re-read the different pages from this thread, several people explained why it's not as popular and available in the West as Kickboxing is. It seems you don't just have attention span issues as you mentioned, but also some memory issues.

Wrong. A small percentage of my posts are about how kickboxing is shit. Nice of you to exaggerate like everyone else.

Yeah you're such a victim, we're all making things up about you, it's you vs. the world, poor dude. Maybe sometimes you should question yourself instead of thinking everybody else is wrong.
