The Diddly Deadly Limbs

Ahh... the deadly hands of Muay Thai; nothing more lethal ... except for a knife, gun, battle ship, bomb or cruiser missile? Nah, forget that, let's settle for the diddly deadly hands.

Oh, and let us not forget the judo chop, karate kick, jiu jitsu grip or ninja flip - those are totally deadly too, of course! Oh yes budoka - we are all registered lethal weapons for sure :-)

You see, philstar.com recently mentioned an incident between a security guard and a Muay Thai representative during a Filipino National Sports Association meeting.

The Muay Thai man was refused to enter the premises by the guard. The Muay Thai representative apparently took this personal. He delivered a punch to the guard's stomach "to express his sentiments".

"(He) is trained in the martial arts and his hands are considered deadly weapons," a source said. "I don’t think it was right for him to treat the guard this way because after all, he was just doing his duty."
