What I love about Muay Thai is the very particular clinch, really good for disorientating ones opponent and setting them up. I think its kicking power is limited in that each kick is powerful and effective but to a decent kicker like a TKD stylist, they are gonna see that kick last year and the follow through style can make it really bloody powerful, but it can leave the kicker a little open.
