And it was the punches not the kicks doing most of the damage.

watch the video again. Remember to wear your glasses. All but 2 of the fights were ended with jumping or regular spinning back kicks.

Actually thai boxing did lose. And it lost spectacuarly.

Lose three levels, reroll character with -5 penalty to intelligence.

No, he's a kickboxer. Just look at the way he trains, dumbass. He trains in Muay Thai now as well.

You are a ****.

He stood toe to toe with the thai guy.

What damage did the TKD guy do? The only kick he even landed solidly was the one sidekick to the stomach and the Thai boxer took it and didn't even flinch.

The rest of the video is mostly the TKD guy eating leg kicks and getting cut kicked every time he attempts a kick.

Let me tell you the difference. "American Kickboxing" is the not same as muay thai. It was developed independantly in america using TKD and kenpo kicks. Yes the hands were influenced by american boxing, but it is NOT muay thai kicks.

It was a highlight video, assfuck. People who have seen the fights in their entirety would know that the boxing skills of Benny is what did the most damage.

That may be true, but he only had Aikido (which he used), TKD (which he used), and Kenpo (which he used) to fight the muay thai boxers with.

Benny is open minded and trained muay thai afterwards, dispite the fact he defeated them. He didn't train muay thai till AFTER those fights.
