Why Muay Thai Defeated Karate in the UFC | The Power of Lineage
Anthony Pettis used Muay Thai background to beat Thompson’s Martial arts last night.
Those who fall short to pick up from background are condemned to repeat it. Those that learn from history are predestined to dominate it.
Pettis went up to the welterweight and beat Stephen Thompson, the best American Karate style fighter to compete in the UFC.
Pettis is trained by Duke Roufus, the man that provided the famous “reduced kick speech” after seeing his bro obtain stretchered out by Changpuek Kiatsongrit. This battle would transform most American competitors’ thoughts on just how to stand in order to prevent the low kick.
By integrating what they found out in this fight with what Rick Roufus did ideal in the fight (the superman punch/ hook that broke Changpuek’s jaw, Anthony Pettis scored an amazing KO triumph.
Learn your history, and after that make background. Congrats to Duke and also Pettis to a remarkable win.

Muay Thai is a combat sport of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques.
