Is Muay Thai really what people say it is?

[tkdguy1982]

I wanted to know if Muay Thai is really what people make it out to be. Because when I think of Muay Thai, I think of a guy w/ a long ponytail, cut body, thai shorts & huge developed shins. Now, what I am wondering, is that sort of what it is like? I am sure I have strayed off from the truth a bit, any opinions on this? All info is appreciated.

Some of them look like that I suppose. Can you rephrase your question? I doubt that you are asking what MT fighters PHYSICALLY look like--all kinds of people do it.
