What fighting style can totally destroy Taekwondo?

Yeah so I have a friend who is taking Taekwondo lessons and keeps bragging about how he can kick my ***, which with my very minimal experience is highly likely so I%26#039;m looking at taking some martial arts lessons. Talent and body sizes aside, what fighting style can primarily destroy someone who knows Taekwondo?|||Whupyoass|||BJJ Report Abuse

Just about any art where you learn to fight up close will make it very frustrating for the TKD person, since TKD people mainly use kicks. However, ITF Taekwondo people also use their hands.





And if he ever tries a spinning kick, the best thing to do is to QUICKLY get up close while his back is turned , so you can jam his kick, and basically throw him to the ground ( spinning kicks look cool, but they really screw up the kicker%26#039;s balance if the kick is suddenly stopped.)





Your friend should learn to keep his mouth shut, though, or someone is gonna kick his a** one day when he gets too arrogant.





He might be able to kick YOUR a**, but he should remember : No matter how good someone is, there%26#039;s ALWAYS someone stronger, faster, and better than them.|||Wrestling





Taekwondo is about keeping your distance with lots of kick combinations. A wrestler is the best at pummeling in, grabbing hold of your opponent, and slamming his @$$ to the ground. If you bull rush forward, his taekwondo will not be fast nor powerful enough to have any effect. Once, you get a hold of him, he is done. Wrestlers are professionals at the clinch, and taekwondo practitioners are clueless in the clinch. Take him down, and just batter his face and arms with punches and elbows. Taekwondo on the ground is like the Middle East being civilized.





Also, taekwondo isn%26#039;t really even a combat martial art. It%26#039;s more of a skill sport, scoring points with flashy, impressive jumping spin kicks. Taekwondo is NOT kickboxing, and I doubt he%26#039;d be able to do any real bad damage to you just because of his taekwondo skills. No offense to taekwondo, but I don%26#039;t think it would be that great in a fight.|||Styles don%26#039;t fight each other, people fight each other.


I used to compete in traditional karate, and in the beginning went to a few open tournaments, so I got the opportunity to see various styles in action. Frankly, in sparring you can%26#039;t tell one style from another. there are situations when you can, they%26#039;re called demonstrations and they are not fights.





The short answer to your question is that it doesn%26#039;t make sense. fighting is fighting. If all you want to do is be certain that you can defeat an unarmed opponnent, sneak up behind him and hit with something. style or no style he%26#039;ll go down...and then you%26#039;ll go to jail.|||Tae Kwon do is no better than any other martial arts it all boils down to how and what is taught in any class.





Because no style is superior to another what style you choose is not that important. Understand that there are four ranges of unarmed combat. The four ranges are : Kicking range, Punching range, Trapping range, and Grappling range.





Tae Kwon Do tends to be best at kicking range. The closer you get to someone trained in TKD the less effective most TKD student are. Anyone trained to fight at closer ranges can be very affective against TKD %26quot;IF%26quot; they know how to get inside and take control. Although TKD does use punches they prefer to stay at kicking range. Get inside with joint locks, reaps, throws, Joint locks, punches, ...etc. they are not able to defend as well. so what I%26#039;m saying is simply this. you can%26#039;t stay at the other guys kicking range. If you back up he will move in to maintain kicking range. You must be able to fight well inside his kicking range.|||After a trip to Thailand and conversations with martial Arts (so called) experts I would have to say mui Thai or more commonly known as Thai boxing appears to be a complete defensive and attacking style.





The great thing about Thai boxing is it is great for people who are quiet slim in build so pretty much anyone can become proficient at it.I don%26#039;t think it has much do do with what style you take on to be honest, its more to do with your commitment and dedication at becoming good at anyone type of martial Art.





Regarding matching Thai boxing style against tai kwon do . A Thai boxer is taught to kick at the legs as well as using close in grapple holds and then elbows knees and so forth this would be extremely effective technique against someone who is going to try and stay away from you and just kick, but again its all about how fit and dedicated you decided to be .|||Depends on the individual not the style...but a caution to your friend; if all he knows about fighting is from TKD then he probably better learn to keep his mouth shut.





Take him to the local boxing gym and see if he can beat a guy that has been boxing for two weeks. He might learn some humility.|||it dosent realy work that ways styles dont beat styles so ill give u info on tkd and asome other styles





tkd- punches traind but nopt too well





kicks done phneonaly however they chamber too long so if they aint fast it is realy telegraphed





some type of fitness











now as far as other styles u can look into a lot of random ones but if u close in on the it is harder for them to fight u but then again if the baxck up u gatta no how to fight in that range too








don just fight him cause he nbragging i mean that is kinda messed up|||Do bjj, he will be a lost little puppy on the ground. You will be able to run a clinic and tap him out real quick, then you can rub it in his face if he was really being an ***.|||If you%26#039;re not worried about hurting him, learn some wrestling, take him to the ground and elbow his face in. If you just want to humble him, learn some Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, take him down and choke him out.|||Any time I train with someone with TKD experience, I always ask them if they think the art was at all worthwhile. They almost always say no. Any real martial art will defeat TKD, all else equal (of course nothing is ever all else equal so beware).|||There%26#039;s a lot of McDojo%26#039;s and he could be attending one of those, so mayb he sucks? and in my opinion most martial arts can beat TKD..cuz i htink TKD sucks ***. well try muay thai, elbows and knees|||take judo or jiu-jitsu. both focus on taking the opponent down to the ground by his own force. let him try to jump around n kick when you catch his leg and throw him like a rag doll lol.|||you should take some boxing and jujutsu lessons because taekwondo is just mainly kicking, and also taekwondo cant do anything on the ground|||muay thai





or brazilian ju jitsu





muay thai is extremely brutal if used properly|||chances are if he is bragging you dont need any martial arts experiance|||Jiujitsu|||boxing, a clinched fist flies faster than any kicks and boxing helps with your agility.|||muay thai is the bomb!


i believe muay thai is the best stand up martial arts|||Nothing can beat Tae Kwon-do lol|||It doesn%26#039;t work that way...
