Oh yeah, to wrap up the story of the American dickhead. He refused to do any Muay Thai training after the first week when he realised how shit he was. Wanna know what he did instead? Picked up a pair of pads and asked if he could hold for a Thai dude for a round. Kid was like, err... Yeah ok whatever. American filmed it on his phone too. Then puts the the video and photos on his gym's website saying he worked as a trainer in a Thailand gym, and now teaches Muay Thai classes as well as his own martial art. Then wrote on his website that the gym in Thailand is his gyms's "sister gym" and how he 'trained a Lumpinee Champion'.

 

Sounds like a job for 'Bullshit Man'
 

 

If the guy is that loud mouthed, he's going to get found out eventually. People are going to look him up and find there's no evidence for his 'achievements'.


I think Sylvie or Kevin posted last year about a Muay Thai gym owner in Mexico (I think it was Mexico, apologies if it wasn't, Mexicans) who claimed to have fought and beaten top level Muay Thai stadium fighters in Thailand, and had posted a picture from his fighting days in the ring as proof. The guy in the picture was Karuhat. People were pointing this out in the comments.

'That's not you, that's Karuhat Sor Supawan'

Mexican gym owner: 'No, it's me'

'You're full of shit. Here's a video of the fight that picture's from. It's Karuhat'

Mexican gym owner: 'No, it's 100% me'

 

The truth always comes out, especially when you have access to the internet.

😂 Love Karl Pilkington, legend!

That's hilarious...brazen enough to use a famous person's photo! 🤣🤣🤣 

It's true, way more likely to get busted these days. The last guys to really get away with it probably came up in the 90s or something

    • Started muay thai about a month ago but used to do mma about 5 yrs ago(which is totally different), the problem i've got is i'm struggling to turn my hips over to get power in my kicks. Whats the best way to train to get my hips to turn to get power. TIA
    • Yea, Bags don't flinch and react to you and i find myself doing better when I spar, i learn what combo's dont work and what do
    • Hey, I just saw this now, I'm surprised nobody replied before.  When I was in Thailand in 2021/22, I also did several privates with Yodkhunpon and enjoyed it very much! I paid and did the sessions at Petchrungruang gym in Pattaya and the initial contact was made by Sylvie, whom I wrote on facebook (thanks again!). The sessions after that, I arranged directly with Yodkhunpon. Unfortunately I havent been back to Thailand since, so I like to read about other people's experiences, so keep writing people!  Has anyone been at Singha Mawyn in Bkk? Superbon used to train there, but more importantly the trainers are legends themselves e.g. Namsaknoi and Khaolan Kaovichit.  Would also be interested in reading about Kiatphontip just outside of Bkk,  and other semi-rural settings.

    • Hey! I totally get what you mean about pushing through—it can sometimes backfire, especially with mood swings and fatigue. Regarding repeated head blows and depression, there’s research showing a link, especially with conditions like CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy). More athletes are recognizing the importance of mental health alongside training.

    • Hi all, I am fortunate enough to have the opportunity to be traveling to Thailand soon for just over a month of traveling and training. I am a complete beginner and do not own any training gear. One of the first stops on my trip will be to explore Bangkok and purchase equipment. What should be on my list? Clearly, gloves, wraps, shorts and mouthguard are required. I would be grateful for some more insight e.g. should I buy bag gloves and sparring gloves, whether shin pads are worthwhile for a beginner, etc. I'm partiularly conscious of the heat and humidity, it would make sense to pack two pairs of running shoes, two sets of gloves, several handwraps and lots of shorts. Any nuggets of wisdom are most welcome. Thanks in advance for your contributions!   
    • Have you looked at venum elite 
    • 3½ years late of a reply haha. I'm in Phuket and have went to quite a few physios. The best so far is Meaw at OptimiseFit at the Blue Tree in north Phuket. She doesn't dry needle me as another Dr. has here but all my muscle tension came back soon so it's a waste of money.
