Who likes Muay Thai?

Hey, just wanted to see how many people enjoy watching or participating in the growing sport/martial art of Muay Thai. For those who are unaware of what Muay Thai is, it is one of the most oldest Martial Arts in the world, originating around 2000 years ago. It is now taking off as a sport in Australia, Asia and Europe.

Here is a clip of the #1 fighter in the world 'John' Wayne Parr (8 Time World Champion - Middleweight)

Yeah, I did Muai Thai and Kenpo for a number of years. 18 fights 1 loss.
Ha, if I even thought about doing it again I would fail-miserably!

Excellent system, dont miss the bruised ribs though!

practiced muay thai for about 6 years, something great to add to the rest of my repertoire. one of the best sports out there to keep you fit, the only other one I found comparable was western boxing.

JWP is a legend but Buakaw is THE legend.

I got into Muay Thai when I watched the first series of contender Asia, Even went to Singapore to watch JWP in the final against Yodsenklai.
He got his ass handed to him but it still made me proud to be an Aussie

Got a couple photos after the fight with him, he was a top bloke and an absolute gentleman

Muay Thai is awesome! Incredible and deadly however, if a good Western boxer gets on the inside it can spell out trouble... please tell me you all know who Nai Khanom Tom is?
