Ramon is one of the legend of MT, his perfoemance was cool and he could beat many of Thai MT boxers.

good reason , i dont know who i prefer , ramon dekker probably because tony jaa does aitkido , karate (i think) , capoeira , and loads of ther stuff , so ramon dekker is probably more comited to muay thai

Ramon Dekker!!!all the way...amninly because though he fights and erm...Tony jumps around a lot!lol

No my camp is very small its only been around for about 5 years so are production of fighters is quite slow...okay really slow,I hear a lot of good things from minotours though,I've trained a couple times with a guy called Sam Wells down Alpertons Fitness first.
He's a good fighter.

kool , my club only recently joined the minotaurs , we have a lot of good fighters , ive only been doing muay thai for a few months thought , i used to do a bit of evrything thought , because i had a lot of freinds that did all diferent arts (basic seld defence , kempo jujitsu , judo , jujitsu , JKD)

Love them both - every time I watch fights or fight scenes I can't seem to sit still. All my muscles keep twitching! Anyone else have that problem????

:matrix:

I don't quite understand what you're asking.

Tony Jaa (while a phenomenal acrobat and athlete) is an actor.

Ramon Dekkers is a fighter with an actual ring record.

The two of them aren't exactly in the same ballpark. It's like apples and oranges.

So what is the question exactly?

haha maybe he was asking whether we preferred watching real fights, even when they can be a bit dull, or if we prefer seeing triple axel flying kicks...n stuff. I'd have to go with ramon dekker, after training in muay thai, watching bouts becomes a lot more interesting, and you can learn from it too.
