ESB ATGs Muay Thai / KickBoxing fighters Thread

[Vic-JofreBRASIL]

I thought would be nice start off a thread on the Greatest Muay Thai / Kickboxing Fighters ever.....and this is the best place to do that (although it is the MMA Forum )....

Muay Thai and Kickboxing are different styles of fighting.....I know....but they face each other and compete some of the time, and would be nice to discuss both......and would be very interesting to discuss the greatest of all time......we´ll see....


Put some videos, give your opinions.......recommend some fights !

-Who Is The Best ?

-Who Are The Greatest Fighters of All Time ??, Tell us....

-The Best Fights of All Time ??

Those 2 r right at the to of the p4p list of non thai born and raised thai fighters..

Parr is a legend and Carnage well his nickname says it all.

kozo takeda low kicks bitch.

[Flea Man]

Saensak Muangsurin. Ten stone Rajadamnern stadium champ' for a few years.

[donnie]

John Wayne Parr although a fantastic fighter in his day is on the decline right now so he is not p4p best non thai fighter like someone said.

In terms of all time great non thai fighters, id put rammon dekkers right up there. Along with gilbert balletine (if thats how you spell it). In the UK we have some poor fighters compared to the dutch and eastern europeans... ronnie green is the best we have ever produdced

As for kickboxing, as far as im aware benny the jet and dennis alexio (guy from kickboxer) are rated amongst the best...although im no expert and who gives a shit about kickboxing anyway its a dead sport.

Stan is great but there is only one ATG. Nai Khanomtom.


For full Thai rules best farang IMO are Dekkers then JWP. Those two stand as farang ATG's apart from everyone else.

ATG status then it is correct that Dekkers first and JWP second for farang.

The first farang to really make his mark with the Thai's followed by the first farang to win the Kings cup and green jacket and then repeat. ATG.

I believe Samart's brother Kongtonaree picked up a few Lumpinee titles at different weights, and hopefully I'll be meeting him to interview him for the book next week Vic
