TLDR : Answer Summary
When re-entering Thailand with a DTV Visa, you will receive a new stamp with an expiration date indicating 180 days. This can occur even if you have multiple entries within a short time frame. It is important to present your printed DTV Visa upon arrival to avoid being stamped incorrectly.

EVERY single time you enter the Kingdom, you get stamped for 180 days. Even if during a month you enter, exit and reenter 3 times, you'll get three 180 days stamps.

have you been attending classes for the Muay Thai training gym course for which you obtained the DTV visa ?

Be prepared..if ASKED, for questions about your DTV Visa and Muay Thai training school experience from the Thai Immigration Officers upon arrival into Thailand.

Several fellas were DENIED ENTRY as they obtained the DTV visa for Muay Thai training and NEVER showed up for the course of study.
