COTTO: Made For Muay Thai

COTTO: Made For Muay Thai

Adapt Miguel Cotto’s Boxing To Your Muay Thai YouTube.com There is a world of difference between punching and boxing. Any man or woman with fists can throw a punch, but it takes years of training and strategy to say that you can box. Someone can be a big puncher – the vast majority of Dutch kick boxers can boast big punching power – but I would hesitate to call the majority of them “boxers.”…

MUAY Thai Needs A Renaissance

MUAY Thai Needs A Renaissance

CAN DEAD & OBSOLETE MUAY THAI BE REVIVED? Muay Thai has been dead since Jean-Claude Van Damme did the first splits in Kickboxer. In fact, as soon as Westerners got their hands on it, kickboxing in its purest form was dead.  By the time Super Street Fighter came out with that abomination of a pseudo- nak muay, Adon, Muai Thay was already long dead. All of Muay Thai’s crossover success was due to…

A head movement analysis of second position clitics: The case of Russian polar particle li.

Russian polar particle li is usually analyzed as a second position clitic, constrained to appear at the linearly second position in the clause. I suggest that this requirement is a consequence of head movement: li is generated in ∑—a polarity projection—merged directly above the associated polar constituent (X). This constituent must head-move and left-adjoin to li. The complex head (X+li) is largely equivalent to a wh-word: at later stages of the derivation, it is attracted to the left periphery of the clause. li can be seen as an analog of a wh-morpheme, which merges with different morphemes to form a wh-word. Treating X+li as a complex head allows us to reduce the second position requirement of li to the left edge requirement on the X+li, a requirement often postulated for wh-words. I provide further evidence for the ∑ hypothesis by showing the complementarity of li and negation.
