Who is the most dangerous Muay Thai fighter in Thailand?

Question

If Thai fighters are so bad and skilled and deadly, Why don't Thai fighters participate in the high money mixed martial arts tournaments.

Answer 1

The most dangerous Thai fighter in Thailand is probably a guy that nobody has ever heard of, living somewhere in the middle of the jungle.  And he probably practices the ancient style of Muay Boran, meaning he could easily destroy anybody that tried to fight him.  As far as the competition sport in Thailand goes, it's hard to say who is the most dangerous fighter.  Most fighters careers last only around 5 years, and since there are so many practitioners it's hard to say who is  the greatest champion of the sport.

Thai fighters don't participate in MMA tournaments mainly because they don't train MMA.  They grow up with Muay Thai and there is a lot of honor in practicing their culture's martial art.  Also a lot of Thai fighters don't have the money to pay for training in other arts along with the fact that few actually teach anything besides Muay Thai in Thailand.

Answer 2

Right now, alot of people think Buakaw Por. Pramuk or Yodsanklai Fairtex are the toughest.

Answer 3

You'll never know the answer to that. The muay thai fighters you hear about and see in the ring aren't true mauy thai fighters at all. Competition restricts fighters from using true technique as far as grappling and take downs in the ring. I hate to say Mauy thai is close tom being a lost art. Restrictions in the ring are preventing fighters from using or even wanting to learn the true form of this martial arts. Ancient mauy thai in my opinion is even more dangerous than bjj.
