Chinese martial arts can fight Muay Thai?

Chinese martial arts heritage since ancient times, kung fu deep everyone does not show, show those who are eager to make a name for themselves in the flowery fist. Chinese martial arts pay attention to martial arts, has a deep cultural connotation, not Muay Thai and Western boxing can be compared. From the technical combat, Muay Thai and boxing and so on are in the young flesh and blood in the overdraft, the middle age once the body rapidly aging. However, the real masters of Chinese martial arts the older they get, the deeper their internal strength. The longer the practice of martial arts to achieve the dual realm of physical fitness and technical combat. Especially the internal boxing Taiji, Xingyi, Bagua, Wudang, with a deep martial arts background, practicing is the internal qi, from the rigid force, dark force, the power is constantly improving. This is only by the speed and power to win the Western boxing can not win. Of course, this is not to say that the Chinese martial arts in the ring will definitely win, but that the Chinese martial arts pay attention to martial virtues, non-competitive, but both internal and external cultivation, pre-emptive, borrowing power to fight. Here is a quote from Wang Zongyue "Taijiquan": "The skills of the side door is very much, although the potential difference, general outside the strong bully weak, slow to fast, powerful to fight the powerless, hand slow to hand fast ear. To find out the four two to pull down a thousand pounds, it is obvious that it is not the power to win; to see the old age can control the crowd, fast how can it be? It is all innate natural ability, not about learning and power and have to do. Standing like a level, live like a wheel. If you are biased, you will follow, if you are double, you will be stagnant. Whenever I see people who have been working hard for several years but are not able to realize their abilities, they are all controlled by others and have not yet realized the disease of dualism. In order to avoid this disease, we must know the yin and yang. Sticky is go, go is sticky; Yin does not leave the Yang, Yang does not leave the Yin; Yin and Yang are complementary to each other, so as to understand the power. After you know the power, the more you practice, the more refined you are, the more you know and understand, and the more you do what you want to do. It is a mistake to seek farther and nearer than one's own. The so-called difference of a tiny bit, the fallacy of a thousand li, scholars can not not be detailed to recognize."

A quote from "Chinese Kung Fu" by Wang Guangxi for the benefit of the readers:

Chinese martial arts are different from both self-expansion, advocating the fierce European and American boxing (reflecting the psychological characteristics of the Western nation good movement and evil static, the pursuit of excitement), but also different from the very island culture characteristics of the Japanese Karate (derived from the Chinese Shaolin boxing method, reflecting the Japanese nation's tenacious and aggressive, fierce and fierce and discipline). (derived from the Chinese Shaolin boxing, reflecting the unique temperament of the Japanese nation of tenacity and aggressiveness, courage and ferocity, and discipline), and also different from Muay Thai with a strong tropical jungle atmosphere (only simple moves, and no routine, the pursuit of swiftness and ferocity, there is no profound theory to speak of, reflecting the tropical nation of the psychological characteristics of the rigid and light-hearted). Chinese Wushu emphasizes the combination of rigidity and flexibility, internal and external cultivation, both robust and majestic appearance, more elegant and profound connotation. Chinese Wushu is not just a combat art, not just a simple sport of punching and kicking, not a simple combination of strength and technique, but it is full of philosophy and the philosophical insights of philosophers on life and the universe, interpreting some ancient philosophical ideas in an almost perfect form of movement, and pursuing a perfect and harmonious life. High-level connotation of the Way of Martial Arts: the strength of rigidity and flexibility, the boxing method is as clever as clumsy, the power to hit people with the intention, the psychology of good war without anger. Aesthetics may not be practical, and practicality is often not aesthetically pleasing. Dexterity may not be better than simplicity, but simplicity is better than dexterity. The mountain crumbles in front of the color unchanged, in the big change, the big sadness and joy still calm and comfortable.

But now the Chinese martial arts, to a large extent, changed, lost the pursuit of traditional martial arts and realm, the real everyone is very few, so there is now a variety of doubts and arguments, can not help but make people sigh! Need the efforts of the young generation of China, carry forward the spirit of Chinese national martial arts, practicing hard, inheritance and development ah.
