There are Chinese arts that are far more elegant than muay thai. Jet Li has set a nice display of one of these in his earlier works. So does Jackie Chan. Muay thai is more efficient in a fight however. Put Bruce Lee up against Jet Li and you know that Bruce Lee will win. He does not have a style that is as elegant but it is a fierce style. Muay Thai comes close to it. The style exercises like the one Tony Jaa does in the beginning of Ong Bak are very elegant however.
