Muay thai olympia

[Manimal87]

So IOC registered Muay Thai some time ago.. There are chances it would be olympic some time. My fear is that it will ruin and water down the sport like what happend to judo and TDK. Whats your thaughts?

thais care a great deal about the olympics, so I could see things changing up if that really happens.

Yes but i hope i would not destroy the hardcoreness about the sport.... If the olympic version will be watered down...i dont hope that there will be just more gyms train that way for olympia and the real muay thai will get more rare like it happend to TDK.
