What it is
Thai commentary sorts fighters into four kinds, and it is the most useful thing anyone can hand a first-time spectator.
The long version
Watch for which one each man is inside the first round and the next four rounds stop being confusing. A knee fighter against a technician is a chase. A puncher against a kicker is a race between a knockout and a scorecard. Two technicians is the fight Thai crowds pay for and foreigners walk out of.
