Sylvie has started voicing commentary on a stretch of fights from 2017 which did not get a commentary yet. Below are the last two she's published. Just watching these fights is incredible for me, because of just how far off the map of regular fighting this is. She was fighting maybe 35 fights a year, and at this point she was facing very large opposition, multiple weight classes up, including some of the most accomplished fighters in Thailand. What is more remarkable than anything about these two fights isn't that they happened, but that because she fought so much and faced pretty much anyone promoters would put in front of her, she didn't give it a second thought. This is just a run-of-the-mill week that happened to have the 118 lb Northern Thailand Champion and the 112 lb WPMF World Champion, back to back, 3 days apart. Any of these fights would be a fighter's apex memory, but for Sylvie this is just the regular rough terrain she climbs. For those that don't know, she's a 46-48 kg (walk around weight) fighter giving up 25 lbs and 15 lbs. It's also amazing to have her perspective on so many of her fights.

You can see all the video of her fights on her Complete Fight Record page. Any fight # that is underlined and in yellow is linked to the video and many of these are commentary video.

      Journaling - Readings, Muay Thai, Concepts and Articulations

      It is also notable that in this theory "colonization" occurs (expansion into vacated possibilities) as "reorganization" moves into "growth". This matches up somewhat with the colonization of Muay Thai by farang forces (including ONE and farang-focused Soft Power, an includes farang style gyms, and farang style training methods, farang fight promotion, etc), after a relative "collapse" of Muay Thai (release) through COVID lockdowns (and accusations). The "preservation" dimension, the recovery of past capacities, perceptions and know-hows, would occur through slower time scale adaptive cycles in this theory, because adaptive cycles are always nested.

      Journaling - Readings, Muay Thai, Concepts and Articulations

      Just a placeholding footnote here. I've been studying Panarchy Resilience Theory (one of the better articles attached) "Resilience of Past Landscapes: Resilience Theory, Society, and the Longue Durée" Author(s): Charles L. Redman and Ann P. Kinzig Stable URL: https://www.jstor.org/stable/26271922 Resilience of Past Landscapes - Resilience Theory, Society, and the Longue Durée.pdf ...a theory first developed in the study and preservation of ecological systems, and then extended to archeology's study of the preservation and collapse of civilizations, in an attempt to formulate a stronger theoretically concept of the preservation (or just stabilization) of Thailand's Muay Thai. It argues that adaptive systems move in 4 phases, named here below:   I've elaborated them overlaying other amenable philosophical terms and concepts.   The aim is to build a concept in which conservation is only a phase, part in a series of adaptive responses, including phases of collapse.

      To the above I would add, this is the enormous difference between transmitting the form of the ring sport, that is the living practices of (actual) training and (actual) fighting, including so much of its embedded social context...and simply trying to transmit its "techniques", as if a dead script of a forgotten language. The more we move towards the transmission of "techniques", the more we are heading towards the ossification (and likely ideologically, and unrealistically imbued "construction") of an art. Not "techniques".

      Poot Lorlek vs Posai Sittiboonlert

      By RyanAWag · Posted

      The first fight between Poot Lorlek and Posai Sittiboonlert was recently uploaded to youtube. Posai is one of the earliest great Muay Khao fighters and influential to Dieselnoi, but there's very little footage of him. Poot is one of the GOATs and one of Posai's best wins, it's really cool to see how Posai's style looked against another elite fighter.

      Muay-Thai training camps-Europe??

      By FuckedElbow-Muay · Posted

      Yeah, this is certainly possible. Thanks! I just like the idea of a training camp pre-fight because of focus and getting more "locked in".. Do you know of any high level gyms in europe you would recommend?

      Muay-Thai training camps-Europe??

      By SJC74 · Posted

      You could just pick a high-level gym in a European city, just live and train there for however long you want (a month?). Lots of gyms have morning and evening classes.

      Muay-Thai training camps-Europe??

      By FuckedElbow-Muay · Posted

      Hi, i have a general question concerning Muay-Thai training camps, are there any serious ones in Europe at all? I know there are some for kickboxing in the Netherlands, but that's not interesting to me or what i aim for. I have found some regarding Muay-Thai in google searches, but what iv'e found seem to be only "retreats" with Muay-Thai on a level compareable to fitness-boxing, yoga or mindfullness.. So what i look for, but can't seem to find anywhere, are camps similar to those in Thailand. Grueling, high-intensity workouts with trainers who have actually fought and don't just do this as a hobby/fitness regime. A place where you can actually grow, improve technique and build strength and gas-tank with high intensity, not a vacation... No hate whatsoever to those who do fitness-boxing and attend retreats like these, i just find it VERY ODD that there ain't any training camps like those in Thailand out there, or perhaps i haven't looked good enough?..  Appericiate all responses, thank you!
