How would you use boxing against karate, beishaolin, karate and muay thai?

I'd like to know how you could adapt what you've learnt in boxing to fight someone who does Karatedo, Muay Thai, Taekwondo and Beishaolinquan.





What would be a good strategy to use against these four martial arts, and how would I evade/counter attacks to legs and lower body in general?|||There are too many variables. It depends on how trained you and the opponent are. If you are faster, stronger, etc. you may win. However I don't advise it. Anyone trained in a martial art can easily take on someone using a style like boxing. Boxing is more of a street style. Boxing revolves more on just punches, and kicks if kick boxing, and power. Trained martial artists have the advantage of a wide r


ange of techniques, such as punches (straight line, other hand strikes i.e. the shuto: knife hand strike) various kicks, and throws and take downs. A martial artist has the advantage of technique that build the necessary strength and speed. But as I stated earlier at matters on who is fighting.





As for being able to find ways to counter the styles it also has many variables. One way is to study the art of the fighter (and the fighter them self) to find the individuals weakness. After you have found it, exploit it. Taekwondo uses a lot of kicks and leg techniques, so it is imperative to watch the legs, but don't neglect any part of the body, they can all be a weapon. Karate is a striking art with many attacks, so a solid defense is needed. As far as Muay Thai and Beishaolinquan I don't know. I haven't studied these arts.





No matter the style it is imperative to work every aspect of fighting, attack, defense, conditioning (speed, strength, etc.) and have a strong mind. It all depends on the individual fighter.|||For me boxing has always been a part of my personal self defense strategy. However, I've also studied Ju Jitsu for many years. I've also been fortunate enough to train with people in various other Arts. So my recommendation is don't limit yourself to just one type of self defense method. In fact training in the Arts you named would be a great way to understand why they use the techniques they use.|||the best way to understand a style is to study it for a while, those are actually a lot more then 4 styles your looking at, karate has close to if not more then 50, and tdk has over 75. the each use different tactics.





you dont want to worry about so much what style your opponent knows, but how he moves and what kind of fighter he is, what kind of fighting ranges he uses, his timing, and techniques, the types of stances and so forth.


stances tell a lot about the type of fighter he is, long narrows stances are long range fighters short stances are close range, wide stance make it easier for side stepping and so forth. learn to read your opponents, and understand there movements and patters they use.|||Well, with boxing you are going to want to be in the pocket. Closing the distance between you and the opposing fighter will eliminate kicks however in closing quarters will also leave you subject to the clinch. You would still need to use the same stick and move aspects of boxing, yet you need to be close enough so you stuff the kick.|||poster 907mma has some good tips.





Just make sure that the thai fighter does not get you in the clinch. When he grabs for the clinch you will probably be best giving a counter hook or uppercut.


With the karate guys, watch the groin kick.





With a boxing background you should have a great jab and better inside fighting. Hooks to the body are my favorite. Even though I fight mma and TKD, I love inside fighting.|||Speed, Skills, and Power will win any fights..No matter what martial arts you use. If I have the speed, skills, and power..I should be able to win any fights...cause I adapt to the situations and find my ways to kill somebody on their deadly spots with my quick and power attacks..in combo man..
