Amongst the (so called) martial arts, MT really kicks ass. The Tkd bloke wasn't bad though. At least he could take some stick, and respond.

There's a reason all the MMA guys study Muay Thai (along with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling)- if you're on your feet, it's the most devastating martial art (a Muay Thai knee strike was measured as having the most force of any blow in martial arts).
It seems like once the ring gets cut down a bit, the Tae Kwon Do guy has trouble as his moves seem to require more space to properly execute (that's an assumption on my part- I study MT but have never practiced TKD).There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Safe to say within that arena the MT was much more effective. The lower kicks seem to have much more effect. TKD higher kis against a boxing defense looked worse off
