I want to first say, that when I was studying kick boxing, it was mixed with Muay Thai methods. So some of the things I learned may be slightly at an advantage or disadvantage in a real fight. I will say though the aggregate of the two was fully Awesome! The power of Muay Thai is so extraordinary that its practically excellent to any other stand up strikes. The speed of Kick Boxing is easily what brings it a whole new level though. Muay Thai, uses grappling, elbow strikes, knee strikes, each blow meant to put an end to the fight I like that! Kick Boxing uses Kicks, alot like Tae Kwon Do, and Boxing. Trust me that is a deadly combination. The Kicks In this style of fighting are regularly meant to target the opponents knees, and head. The knee is used to target the opponents ribs, and head. The elbows target the head and when potential are used to stop your opponent from attacking, but not just to block him, but to hurt him enough he will not want to swing again. The hand strikes are very much like boxing, with a defensive stance resembling Tae Kwon Do with your hands.
The Kicks are much harder, then any fighting style I have ever been in. The lowest of the shin is used to attack with, and your goal is to break anything you hit. Not just quickly hit it and move away. This hurts far worse then a Tae Kwon Do kick as well. The down side of this is that the knee kicks are performed much like a foot ball bunt, which means there is plentifulness of time to get out of the way if its not set up properly. Also the fact that you are hitting your shin puts you at a higher risk of breaking your leg. If you do not custom the technique and become developed in it, you will do more harm to yourself then your opponent. I will say that your would stand a good chance against a man with a knife, or a stick when you become developed in this fighting style. The presume being you are able to block much harder strikes then most fighters, and your strikes regularly have twice as much put down power.

The speed of the movements is a qoute though. When your fighting more then one man at a time you can't afford any kind of telegraphing. Naturally put you cannot afford for them to see your kick before it has already hit them. Also the stances are some what wide which makes it hard to move quickly, even though it does give you a harder hit. It gives you a much slower dodge. Any way you are going to learn grappling that allows to operate opponents movements twice your size. With these movements you can easily break arms, legs, ribs, even an opponent's neck. (All while standing) I like that advantage. Because as we all know the worst place to be is on the ground while a fight, with two other guys stomping down on your face. I give Muay Thai, and Kick Boxing (mixed) a nine out of ten. It is without a doubt one of the most deadly combats available, Any way not for its. Complexity, but for its simplicity. Because anything that can throw punches, kicks, elbows, and knees, can be transformed into an elite fighter with this style. This is what makes it so deadly. It used basic movement to stop, and sometimes even kill an opponent. This is a specific must for anything any where who wants to enhance the over all mechanics for there basic fighting style, while at the same time gaining extreme remarkable power.
I hope this helps you guys decree on your fighting style.
