How come that the knights such as the Templar Knights were so weak against the Mamluk Warriors especially in melee combat?

What do you think of the fact that the Templar Knights never won battles against the Mamluks despite the fact that the Mamluks were always heavily outnumbered by the Templar Knights?

What do you think of the fact that the Templar Knights never killed Mamluks in battles despite the fact that the Mamluks were heavily outnumbered by the Templar Knights?

Is it because of the fact that the knights were spoiled nobles who had no martial arts training or any decent warrior training?

Also, I heard some people say that the Templar Knights were always defeated in street fighting by Mamluk warriors despite the Mamluks being heavily outnumbered by the Templar Knights. Is this proof of the Templar Knights being weaklings who had no martial arts training? Street fighting after all is always hand-to-hand combat.

Google ( if you not have done so previously ) the Quora website.

But bear in mind that Quora is informative, but not trustworthy.

It's not trustworthy because there is no fact checking and no credential checking.

It's not unusual to see contradictory answers to a question.

What does Quora have to do with this? I never said anything about Quora.

What about the real topic of this post I made? What do you think of the fact that the knights were very weak against the Mamluk warriors?

Well at least prove to me that the knights such as the Templar Knights were not weak against the Mamluks.

I do not need to, you have made a series of claims without providing any evidence. It is up to you provide the proof for what you are claiming.

I don't know about the Mamluks but the Saracens are certainly besting the Harlequins today at White Hart Lane. The Saracens (union football club) earned their name in 1876 from the masters and boys of St Marylebone School, London who admired the martial prowess of Saladin's 12th century warriors.
