Boxing(from English Boxing) is a contact sport, a martial arts in which athletes strike each other with their fists wearing special gloves.
Struggle- martial arts, hand-to-hand combat between two people, in which each tries to overpower the other, knocking him down.
Boxer vs wrestler? Boxer vs karateka? Who stronger fighter, or a boxer, or a karateka?
All boys asked this question in childhood. But even as adults, many are interested in who will win in a head-to-head confrontation - boxer, karateka or wrestler. On famous videos On portals you can often see videos with the loud title “boxer versus sambo wrestler,” or “boxer versus wrestler,” and so on.
In these videos, as a rule, two guys sort things out in a rude manner. And the wrestler “sticks a boxer into the ground with a backbend throw,” or a boxer easily knocks out a wrestler or karateka, a kickboxer defeats a Thai, and so on. All these videos and the opinions of adherents of this or that school of martial arts do not correspond to reality.
We will not talk about the fact that boxing is undoubtedly the strongest martial art. This is wrong. There is NO Martial Art that can rightfully be call him the strongest. All martial arts that claim this are usually among the weakest or simply a scam. Of the most famous types of martial arts, which have achieved the greatest success, which have a long history and which can lay claim to the most effective martial art are: sambo, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, Thai boxing, kickboxing, and, of course, boxing.
Today boxing is highest paid form of martial arts in the world. There is no other form of martial arts that involves as much money as boxing. For one fight, top boxers receive 30-40 million dollars.
The stronger is the one who is better prepared. A boxer, a master of sports of international class, can easily defeat a third-rate wrestler. A master of sports wrestler will defeat a 3rd category boxer.
Much more important than the type of martial arts is the level you have achieved in this sport. If we are talking about street fighting , then absolutely everyone can win here, regardless of whether they play sports at all. In this regard, athletes have big advantage and this advantage is not related to their physical strength and the ability to hit hard. The most important thing is calmness and self-confidence that inevitably come to a professional athlete.
That was really cool! Classical wrestlers and kickboxers, judokas and representatives of pankration, masters of sports in army hand-to-hand combat and adherents of numerous styles of karate - they all took to the mat to find out whose technique is more effective in a real fight? The very atmosphere of the tournament combat sambo It was very reminiscent of the “kumite” from the famous film “Bloodsport” with Jean-Claude Van Damme. Dispute about who is best fighter, probably as old as humanity, and the topic - who will win, a wrestler or a boxer - is one of the favorites in heated discussions among both boys in the yard and adult men. But why debate if now Omsk martial artists have the opportunity to find out this in practice?
Combat Sambo was created in the USSR about 80 years ago to train law enforcement officers. It didn't count then sports discipline and was prohibited for training civilians. In the Soviet country, in general, people with skills in effective and tough fighting styles were treated with great distrust. It is probably extremely difficult for modern young people to understand how, for the very fact of practicing, say, kyokushinkai or taekwondo, even in the complete absence of any illegal actions, one can end up under an article of the criminal code and go to prison for a very real term. But people of the older generation probably remember these times well. In exactly the same way, combat sambo was in disgrace for a long time. It was believed that a person, thanks to his skills in himself representing a very formidable weapon, was potentially dangerous to society. Only in 1991 did combat sambo become a separate sport, and in 1994 the first Russian championship in this type of wrestling was held in Moscow.
Sports sambo has long and glorious traditions in Omsk. Its development in our region began with the arrival of Boris Sorokin, a graduate of the Lesgaft Institute of Physical Education, to Omsk from Leningrad in the early 50s of the last century. It was under his leadership that the first sambo section was opened at the Dynamo stadium. Thanks to Sorokin, this sport has found new fans among our fellow countrymen year after year. And if in 1958, at the first championship in Omsk, 25 sambo wrestlers competed for awards, then a few years later at regional tournaments about three hundred athletes competed for medals. In the early 70s of the 20th century, when such coaches as Nikolai Anokhin and Anatoly Khmelev worked fruitfully in our region, Omsk sambo wrestlers first loudly declared themselves on the international stage. In 1972, Alexander Khosh became the European champion, and a year later Nikolai Danilov and Vladimir Klivodenko won the World Championship. In 1974, Alexander Pushnitsa won his first world champion title, after which the triumphant march of this unique athlete lasted 10 years! Track record our legendary fellow countryman is truly impressive: three-time champion planets, two-time champion Europe, nine-time national champion, winner of many other honorary titles. From 1974 to 1981 Pushnitsa did not lose a single fight! For 15 years, he was number one in the USSR national team, its permanent captain.
But, despite such rich roots, the arrival of combat sambo in Omsk various reasons was delayed. And it happened! What is the fundamental difference between the combat version of self-defense without weapons and its sports version? « Combat Sambo is a full-contact, tough sport - explains Vladislav Yuryev, vice-president of the Sambo and Judo Wrestling Federation of the Omsk Region. - Here you can strike in the head, and even in the groin. At the same time, the hands are not covered at all. boxing gloves, but with ordinary overlays. Essentially, this is an amateur version of fighting without rules.”
54 athletes took part in the first championship (for those over 19 years old) and championship (for those under this age) of the Omsk region in combat sambo. As planned by the organizers, they walked out onto the carpet to the music of Viktor Tsoi’s timeless hit “Blood Type.” Well, let’s give credit to the imagination of the organizers, this added even more brutality to everything that was happening. The clubs “Ring”, “Desantnik”, “Saturn”, “Bogatyri”, “Siam”, “Sambo-2000”, SibGUFK, Omsk Tank Institute and others delegated their strongest fighters to the tournament. According to the regulations, the fighters were given five minutes of pure time to identify the strongest. But in fact, the vast majority of fights ended ahead of schedule. For some, 20-30 seconds were enough to win, and the shortest battle took just eleven. The audience never got bored; the dynamics of what was happening was off the charts! And the athletes themselves believe that the first pancake, contrary to the proverb, turned out not to be lumpy at all.
« Very good tournament, although the first- confident Yuri Troshin, bronze medalist of the Omsk region championship in combat sambo in weight category up to 68 kilograms. - We were all waiting for it, and we are not disappointed - the organization is excellent. Of course, the medal was difficult, because I am already forty-two years old. I try to support myself sports uniform, but missed a couple today good shots“I can’t keep up with the young guys anymore.”
Perhaps the most stubborn was the final fight in the weight category up to 68 kilograms, between the representative of the Paratroopers club Alexander Vorotnikov and Tigran Petrosyan from SibGUFK. The more experienced Vorotnikov, who already has in his list of regalia the title of Moscow champion in combat sambo, which Omsk won during his military service in the capital of Russia, managed to gain the upper hand only in the last seconds of the fight, and now his teammates are rushing to congratulate the triumphant!
« I knew my opponent, I knew that he good fighter, master of sports in Greco-Roman wrestling- Alexander Vorotnikov, who won the title of champion of the Omsk region in combat sambo in the weight category up to 68 kilograms, shares his impressions immediately after the victory. - And I am stronger in striking techniques, so I tried to work in a standing position, and not on the ground. I acted as number two, and by the end of the match the opponent was tired, but on the contrary, I added on. The ending turned out to be nervous, I won with a slight advantage. The support from the fans helped a lot! In general, I have something to compare with, because I have competed in many international competitions. And I want to say that this tournament turned out great! And in a month I will have to take part in a hand-to-hand combat competition named after our fellow countryman Nikolai Chepik, so I won’t have to celebrate my victory for long.”
So what's the bottom line? Did the tournament give an answer to the question of who is the better wrestler, with his throws, painful holds and choking techniques? Or a kickboxer, with his powerful blows arms and legs? Athletes' opinions on this matter are divided. " As in sports sambo, it’s the same in combat, it’s the fight that’s important- says Erkin Chugulov, winner of the Omsk region championship in combat sambo in the weight category up to 68 kilograms. - You have to defend and throw, then you will win. Main role they play throws, not hits».
But Yuri Troshin believes otherwise. "Who better technology, he's a great guy. A wrestler can win, or a boxer can win with one blow. For example, I start a fight standing up, and usually end it on the ground.”
Certainly, past tournament- the spectacle is not for the faint of heart. And a lot of blood was wiped from the cut eyebrows and broken noses from the carpet, and the jaw of one of the fighters was broken - in general, the medical team had plenty of work. Well, yes, as they say, for one beaten, two unbeaten they give! Now, based on the results of the past championship and championship of the Omsk region, a team of our region in combat sambo will be formed to participate in the championship and championship of the Siberian Federal District.

Fights without rules
In a sport like MMA it happened mixing styles. Karatekas (Lyoto Machida), wrestlers (Brock Lesnar, Josh Barnett), jiu-jitsu fighters (Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Fabrizio Werdum), representatives of the Russian sambo school (Fedor Emelianenko, Alexander Emelianenko, Roman Zentsov) and prominent strikers ( Mirko Cro Cop and current UFC champion Junior DOS Santos). Athletes from all types of martial arts went into fights without rules: from wrestling, from karate, from sambo, as well as from others, but they did not go from boxing. Boxers did not want to go into fights without rules, since they pay much less and the risk of injury is much higher.
However, on at the moment The world champion in the most prestigious weight category (super heavyweight) is a fighter who uses exclusively striking techniques with his hands. This Junior DOS Santos. You won't see any throws or painful holds in his technique. He spends all his fights in a standing position, attacking only with his hands and competently defending himself against legs and holds. From this we can conclude that boxer with ease could compete in fights without rules.
Who will win if a boxer fights against a wrestler? Or against a karateka, taekwondoka, mixed martial artist? These questions have always interested boys since childhood. However, adults are also interested in who will win.
Karateka versus boxer or other athlete: head-to-head confrontation
The Internet is replete with videos with titles that are simply irresistible. For example, “Karateka versus boxer.” I would like to watch a video like this. The number of views shows that people are interested, and keenly, in this issue.
Such materials demonstrate not entirely correct variations of fights. Because usually the clarification of relations between wrestlers occurs in a rude manner. Each can call its own – the strongest.
There are those who claim that a boxer can lose in a fight to strong guys, precisely due to the presence of strict rules of combat. And they think that a boxer cannot resist the gopniks. Or a boxer against MMA - representatives of mixed martial arts, or those participating in the so-called “fights without rules”.
What martial art is the most effective?
It is necessary to look at martial arts from ancient history. To date, claim to be the most effective combat sport can Greco-Roman wrestling, sambo, jiu-jitsu, Thai boxing, kickboxing and, 100%, boxing.
Boxing today is one of the highest paid sports in the world. So, a top boxer receives 30-40 million dollars for a fight.
The question of who is stronger is not correctly decided by watching videos that are made incomprehensibly and unknown where and posted on the Internet. And according to the readiness of the athletes - specific participants in the battle.
For example, if there is a fight “Boxer vs. Taekwondo” or vs. wrestler, you need to look at the level of readiness. So, if a boxer is a master of sports, then he will easily beat a 3rd category wrestler. And vice versa. If a master of sports in wrestling competes against a third-rate boxer, then he will win.
Boxer vs MMA champion
It’s worth looking a little more closely at mixed martial arts. They are based on a mixture of styles of karate, wrestling, sambo, etc. The risk of injury is higher, the payment for participation and winnings is less than with victories in boxing. But it is important to take into account that the world champion today is the fighter Junior dos Santos ( Junior do Santos). The basis of his technique is stance, attack with hands, competent defense against grabs and legs. And all this is taught in boxing!
At school " Combat gloves“The best instructors are working, capable of preparing an athlete who can withstand a fight and win if the opponent is in an equal category. You will gain peace of mind and confidence in your abilities. And this is the main advantage, including over those who practice street fighting.
After all, everyone comes to them, not even necessarily those who have ever played sports. They try to hit harder. However, availability is not always physical strength- the key to success. Tactics, the ability to quickly react and predict enemy actions are important. And to do this you need to remain amazingly calm and steadfast.
