With Muay Thai Fights illustrating some of the most deadliest skills, people may point their eyes and money, to what gives them the most entertainment.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this…
Boxing is different than MMA and will always have its place just as TKD, MT, BJJ, Judo etc all will.

What do you mean by MT reaching the MMA level? Do you mean just stand up without any ground fighting? MMA involves a lot of MT. And MMA is not mostly comprised of MT. Its a combination of a lot of things, although their are some fighters who are primarily MT but they also have strong ground games.
