Aikibudo vs. Muay Thai

[Piston]

Heres an interesting little demonstration spar I found of two russians, one of whom practices Aikibudo and the other Thai Boxing.

It was a "staged" demo... choreographed.

not very well staged either. It's not hard to "sell" a hit.

jesus christ...awful. They'd be better off crawling into a fetal position.

see how well the fetal position works. An hour of being beat and the guy's still alive. I'd say it's an okay course of action...I might get tired of hitting somebody bitched up in a ball...compared to one of those goofs above...whom would be fun to beat on for hours.

Wow.... the MT guy was pathetic... I didn't even like his form not to mention it was infact painfully obvious it was staged. I don't think that aiki guy could just put his arm up and stop a kick to the head like that. I've had personal experience with people trying to block my kicks and have kicked multiple people in their head...
