I will agree to that, partially. You are really getting only maybe 25% of what is needed to be a good fighter. So much involves reactions to unknown opponents and different scenarios as well as other outside distractions. But a trained fighter who has street experience is the one who wins most of the time.
Also, I want to apologize if I made what you are doing in Thailand sound trivial, because it's not. You just got me angry. If you truly want to learn Muay Thai I don't know many people with enough balls to leave home and train in a steamy jungle. I just hope you never underestimate any of your opponents, female or small, because the proudest fighters always lose. I was taught something very important, there always is someone better than you out there.
