How's Muay Thai only good for the ring?

Judo, Mainly because it's the most appealing to me, It seems like the right fighting style for me. :)

Just goes to show that style only counts for so much.

That's MMA, not Muay Thai, and Capoeira does not do well against other styles.

No. It doesn't prove anything. Perhaps a shit MMA fighter.

I mean, Capoeira gyms do not even boast that their style is powerful. They do it for basic self defence and mostly for fitness and spiritual development.

If the Capoeira fighter in the vid is indeed skilled, he deserves merit. But the style won't take the average practitioner far professionally.
