What are the benefits of learning kick-boxing?

[tenzen]

Kickboxing will give you more tools to work with as opposed to boxing. It will also give you more of a full body workout than boxing. I'm assuming that fitness is your reason for taking it up in the first place.

Also allistair overeem is a kickboxing champion. So is yodseanklai fairtex, and buakaw por pramuk. Just to name a few. Chuck norris was a kickboxing champion joe lewis was another.
