muay thai vs brazilian jujitsu
These two fighting styles are significant skills that a MMA fighter usually has. i love Muay thai power kneeing and elbowing. I like Brazilian jujitsu's submission holds. Which one do you prefer?

Muay Thai is more exciting and a better style IMO, but both have their advantages and disadvantages.

 Jiujitsu all the way baby!

In a purist stylistical analysis, Jiujitsu is the best for contact fighting. 90% of actual fights go to the ground, and that where Jiujitsu lives.

Though I would definitely love a combination of both. Muay Thai compliments jiujitsu. You won't mind throwing kicks and getting take downed if you are a sound Jiujitsu guy, so it promotes striking and kicking, as what Mir does now. Doesn't mind the take down since he is a jiujitsu guy by base.

Jui Jitsu is great to watch when you have two top level guys that are constantly transitioning and going for submissions/defending.  But nothing beats a muay thai combination/countering that eventually leads to a KO.

Muay Thai for striking, for sure! I like Judo for grappling!

I prefer Muay Thai more than Brazilian juijitsu. Muay thai has been a part of family's sport. My dad is a Muay Thai player back in his days. So I guess I liked it more because he used to teach it to me before.
