Wow, the 2 sports are very different. Cyborg can not ground and pound in Muay Thai. Baars is a great kicker and if Rhondas fought her in Muay Thai she would be murdered. MMA is a different animal, I think Rhonda beats not steroid Cyborg in MMA. Cyborg showed a lot of heart in the bout with Baars and she can take a shot.

I am surprised that women's muay thai never became a really popular sport in the U.S.

Muay Thai isn't particularly popular as a sport to follow in general. I mean a lot of people train it but as a sport the competitive format is in shambles. It's like that with kickboxing in general, too many "world champions", padded records and meaningless belts. Holland has a good kickboxing scene as does Thailand, Japan used to have very popular K-1 fights and USA has Glory promotion but that's about it to my knowledge.

Boxing and MMA are by far the biggest right now, they're easier to follow and have huge fanbases and produce big stars regularly. A talented kickboxer would rather transition to boxing if he wants to earn big money, plenty of boxers started out as kickboxers but followed the money and switched to just boxing. I think plenty of Muay Thai fighters from Thailand transitioned to boxing too and competed on the olympics.
