I made this video of fight highlights paying tribute to some of the more elusive fighters in Muay Thai.
Depending on who you talk to there is a myth amongst some, mainly mma fans who are exposed to muay thai lite that Muay Thai fighters don't have great footwork.
In my opinion this is incorrect.
There are many Muay Thai fighters who can fight on the backfoot for the duration, use angles and changes in rhythm to win fights.
There are also guys like Petrosyan out there who have great footwork but there's a lot of jab, cross, left hook, right low kick spamming in Europe as well.
I also think good footwork is one of the most aesthetically pleasing fight skills to watch.
Who do you think has the best movement out of fighters past or present. I think Attachai is under rated in that regard and doesn't get as much as credit as other big names.
