I was hoping for Krav Maga...

My score on The Fighting Style Test:

Muay Thai Kickboxing

(You wanted 61% traditionalism, 89% practicality, 34% weapons use, and 50% softness (a low softness gives you a "hard" style)



There's no surer way to say "I'm fucking hardcore" than to say "I train in Muay Thai Kickboxing." Yeah, it's that awesome.

Pick a body part. Find a way to make it move fast. Make it move fast in the direction of your opponent's face. There you have it, the heart of the sport. Elbows, knees, anything goes. Muay Thai has tradition, but the good kind of tradition: the kind that lets you know that twisting your leg to exactly that many degrees has led hundreds of thousands before you to throw devastating kicks - and it'll work for you, too.

The national sport of Thailand, legend goes that Muay Thai was created when America tried to introduce Thailand to boxing, and their entire populace as one, said "Wow. LAME. Let's show you how that's really done."

Or not. I've never been big on legends.
