You have to be a bit more specific, there are many forms of Karate. Shidokan and kyokushen are 2 very effective ones, a Shidokan karate practicioner could hold his ground against any fighter, as they train full contact karate, muay thai and ground grappling. A kyokushen karate practicioner could do well against any stand up practicioner, provided he remembers to protect his face, as in tournaments you are no allowed to PUNCH the head, but you can kick it.
Wing chun is also effective, the throws are very fun to watch, and they also include elbows and some grappling, besides the kicks, and punches. A good Wing Chun dojo is hard to find, but if you find one you have to be a dedicated student, wing chun also has very effective techniques
Muay thai is one of the most effective stand up martial arts, as it's a no-nonse martial art , with a lethal arsenal that includes elbows, kicks, knees and punches. There are some throws (no hip throws) and the clinch is very effective, the training is brutal, and there's alot enphasized on the abs, they have to be rock hard. The kicks are done by landing the shin, rather than the foot, it's said that's comparable to getting hit by an aluminum baseball bat.
All these martial arts are effective, but how they would perform against each other would depend on the practicioner. The skill, willpower, toughness, dedication, age, experience, timing, phisical performance, and so on will determine the outcome of a fight, not the martial art itself.
Karate vs wing chun vs muay thai?
done them all - each has some merit
to be honest in the street first in often wins - a poke in the eye, chop to the throat, kick in the balls and stomp on the knee set up a win

Reply:Karate (空手, Karate?) (listen (help·info)) or karate-dō (空手道, karate-dō?) is a martial art that developed from a synthesis of indigenous Ryukyuan fighting methods and southern Chinese martial arts. "Karate" originally meant Tang hand, i.e. Chinese hand, which was later changed to a homonym meaning 'empty hand' in Japanese. It is known primarily as a striking art, featuring punching, kicking, knee/elbow strikes and open handed techniques. However, grappling, joint manipulations, locks, restraints/traps, throws and vital point striking also appear in karate
Wing Chun occasionally romanized as "Ving Tsun" or "Wing Tsun" (咏春, literally "spring chant" and alternatively as "forever spring", or substituted with the character for "eternal springtime" [1]) is a Chinese martial art that emphasizes short-range combat
Muay Thai (IPA: [/muai32 tʰai32/]; Thai: มวยไทย) ("Thai Boxing") is the Thai name for a form of hard martial art practiced in several Southeast Asian countries including Thailand, Cambodia (where it is known as Pradal Serey), Malaysia (where it is known as Tomoi) and as a similar style in Myanmar (called Lethwei) and in Laos (Muay Lao). The different styles of fighting in mainland Southeast Asia are analogous to the different types of Kung Fu in China or Silat in the South East Asian islands or the Malay World. It is the national sport of Thailand, and is also known as Thai Boxing or The Art of the Eight Limbs.
Muay Thai has a long history in Thailand. Today, the Thai military uses a modified form of Muay Thai called Lerdrit. Traditional Muay Thai, as it is practiced today, varies slightly from the original art and uses kicks and punches in a ring with gloves similar to those used in Western boxing. Muay Thai is referred to as "The Science of Eight Limbs", as the hands, shins, elbows, and knees are all used extensively in this art. A master practitioner of Muay Thai thus has the ability to execute strikes using eight "points of contact," as opposed to "two points" (fists) in Western kickboxing and "four points" (fists, feet) used in the primarily sport-oriented forms of martial arts. Muay Thai is an especially versatile, brutal, straightforward martial art.
