    The long haired capoiera guy threw out some nice moves in that clip. Im usually not too impressed by the whole kung fu acrobatics stuff but you gotta give that Tony guy respect!

    Tony Jaa rocks on film, great stunts etc, I dont see much muay thai in his fighting, altough he claims it is muay thai, more like a stylised Breakdancing / capoeira to me, lots of "Crescent kicks". I suppose he does use Knees and Elbows. He always reminds me of Jason Scott Lee in dragon the Bruce Lee story for some reason, except of course that JS Lee was not a martial artist.( mind you, He didnt do a bad job playing one ). I've heard Tony was a top fighter in Thailand before his movie fame, anyone know anything about his past?

    As far as i know, its not muay thai he does in the films, but muay boran, (not that I actually know the difference)

    I am unsure if he was a top fighter as I cannot find any records under his actual name ( Jaa Panom ) but I believe he has trained in Muay Thai, Muay Boran, Aikido, Pencak Silat, Capoeira, Wushu, Krabi Krabong and TKD.
