I must have missed the part where you put on boxing gloves and knock people out:rolleyes:.
Do your research. Kickboxing evolved from karate....One of the original Top kickboxers....joe Lewis a black belt in karate, bill Wallace, benny the jet all top karate black belts. Kickboxing comes from karate. Yes now it’s evolved more into its own thing but kickboxing 100% has its roots from karate

I think what everyone should keep in mind is kick boxing is a specific kind of competition. Anyone training to compete will train in a specific way, hopefully with good coaches and training partners.

Same goes for Muay Thai, boxing, MMA, etcetera.

Did Bruce Lee use MT roundhouse kick instead of the TKD roundhouse kick?
