thinking of crossing over

I am saying that in a fight with no rules, muay thai would probaly beat everything except mma.

This completly goes against all your next comments.

So if MT got into a fight with BJJ praticioner and nothing else the MT guy for sure will win? Is that what you are saying here?

Nothing is ever a sure thing. MT stylist have good stand up but what if say a ninjutsu practioner comes up and when you throw a punch uses your movement to say pull you down and break the arm then just sits on you? There were no rules but the MT guy is in a world of trouble.

Same goes for everything, MT is good in aspects but lacks in others. Its a good art if you are going out and picking fights because you can knock people out easy, but if you come up against someone else that is say a kung fu or JKD praticioner you can never be sure.

There is no art called mma, if you fight in mma you study some grapeling art (bjj, sambo, shotto), and some stand up art (muay thai, boxing, kickboxing) and compine both of them.

Actually thats kinda wrong, what you are saying is a person who studies two stand up styles isnt a MMA'ist? Wrong,

An MMA practioner is someone who has training in two or more martial arts. Not a grappling art and a stand up art. You can practice MMA by training in say Kendo and Silat. Anything.

That is true, but mma is typically thought of as a grapeling art and a stand up art. I guess it could be any art mixed togther, that is not how it is typiclally thought of
