I have been training in krav maga and kickboxing for the last 3 years. I have tried to avoid posting in this thread as im a scrawny little 62 kilo stick of a lad and talking about fighting always seems to give me a total complex about being a shorty...but....
the difference between krav and kickboxing (at least what i have been practicing) is huge. I love both but kickboxing is much more sport based whereas krav is very focussed on quickly and efficiently removing yourself from a difficult situation using the most basic simple and logical techniques that can be remember quickly and under pressure. Kickboxing obviously helps get your body used to the physical aspects of throwing strikes etc but sparring and krav pressure testing a very different beasts.
