I admire your knowledge of the Thai arts....it is inspiring.....he is for sure....I have a passing interest in Muay Thai and practice many techniques from Muay Thai in my current system (no system)...I have not overly studied the last 2000 years in relation to Muay Thai....but I know what I see today.....and what I see today is a sport.Sorry to have to disagree with your view of ???sport???.
