as the last round ended Rafi tryed to give him props (fist bump) and he walked off left him hanging - the start of the next rounf he got knocked tf out
too bad that was round 3. . .out of 5. Talking out your ass huh? really it means "Yeah we're having a awesome fight" or "Your totally not a bitch good shit bro!"
Dang, even a high level kickboxer who fought High level top fighters can't hang in a Real Muay Thai fight. Muay Thai might not look pretty as other form of stand up but sure as hell effective.
I mean If kickboxing rules, a lot af tradtionnal nakmuay would have difficulty to adapt their style: no elbows, no clinch, no leg catch, lack of mobility...
Sittichai and Buakaw are pure K1 kickboxers for years now, and are training as kickboxers. If what you say was true, you would see a majority of nakmuay in big K1 promotions such as Glory, Krush, K-1 GP, Kunlun... but it's not the case. Those who are strictly training traditionnal muaythai and do well in kickboxing are only a few. We only know those who success this transition, not those who fail to it because they're not famous. Also I really don't see what's Thai in Ernosto Hoost style, for me, he is pure dutch kickboxing, but let's not forget dutch style is muaythai/boxing/kyokushin based so obviously, you would find something "muaythai" in every famous kickboxers. Look at Ramon Dekkers: he was pure dutch kickboxing and he defeated a lot of Thai nakmuay in their own rules, you can always find an exception that would make your purpose correct.
