I guess if he plans on doing MMA then it makes sense, kickboxing will take away the only thing anybody knows him for though. He's decent as far as US Muay Thai goes but he's not really that good from what I have seen, his biggest win was a fight that he cried enough about to get a close decision overturned in his favor. I'm more interested in what he can do in MMA than I am in his Muay Thai/Kickboxing career.

This right here. He is really only known for his spinning elbows. He won't be able to do that in Bellator Kickboxing, and I can't see him landing all that many in MMA either since people will be allowed to shoot in on him. Not sure how the guy's wrestling/ground game are. Hopefully he's been working on it since straight muay thai won't cut it in MMA.

"World class" for sure, but obviously he had to step down to Bellator cause he couldn't cut it against Lion Fight legends like Kevin Ross and Jo Nattawutt.
Been hearing he has hype because of his "spinning shit", but Idk if he is truly elite. I'm sure he has an appealing style and all that, so that is why they signed him.
Important to keep in mind that he won't be able to use his spinning back elbows in bellator kb

The only people that view him as elite are those whose only exposure to Muay Thai are through Lion Fights, MMA, and Joe Rogan.
He's decent as far as US Muay Thai goes but he wouldn't last in the stadiums. He is honestly a bit of an eye sore to watch since he gets spammy with the spinning elbows.
