This reality show does not represent Muay Thai And I know 3 of these guys and can tell you they are nothing like the show represents them to be. Good for people for whom Muay Thai is a new word for them. Not so good for people who are real fans of Muay Thai. Also WTF is up with them constantly calling it Muay Thai kickboxing??

True, the "drama" angle is annoying and the "best in the world" just a tad over-reaching, but without it the show would never have even made it on TV. I'm just happy to see muay thai spreading. Bastardization of the art is certain, but it's the best way for the art to progress. And for those of us in the US (I'm in Texas) there's not a lot of muay thai on TV (try next to none), so I'm happy for what I get. I disagree with Stack.

Out of this bunch? Are you eff U See Kay - ing kidding me? People are more gullible every day. As for the show itself whoosh. It's hilarious how some of these guys are represented here and it's really so far from the truth. Basically everyone painted into being the 'good guy' or 'loving father' isn't and the guys painted as the villains aren't. Good for MMA fans and guys that heard of Muay Thai yesterday while fanticizing about being the next ultimate fighter. For real Muay Thai fans and adults older than 18 I do not recommend this.

With all the douche-baggery of spoilers, I am giving it plenty of time for people to catch episodes. So an interesting aside on the Sean the scottish guy. I am not sure about this, so if anyone knows Sean's background please feel free to validate. A few years back I was in this small sleepy beach town a couple of hours from BKK :-) Anyway, I was at an outdoors beer bar and they had muay thai on a projected big screen. Fighting was a thai vs. a farlang. I was very surprised to see the white dude, not only holding his own, but they were straight trading big elbows. It was a great fight, really a back and forth battle. It almost looked like it was a Kings B-day fight, as they were fighting at an outdoor venue. Anyway, the farlang had mad skills. I remember the big back tattoo. I think it was Sean from the show. Can anyone confirm how many times Sean has fought in Thailand and if he has fought thais before? Hey Guys,
