The Little Thai Fighters Documentary

This isn't a video that breaks any new ground if you know a little about the Muay Thai scene in Thailand, but it's always cool to see some of the talent in these young kids. It's also well shot- props to Damon Logan.

The one that caught my eye in particular is the little girl at 4:06, Chery. I saw a video on youtube a while back of her kicking a bag with monstrous force.

It wasn't until watching this clip that I got to see more footage of her training and even in the ring. Also big respect to her busting out the one arm push ups!

It's a short watch, so enjoy!

Weekend fight post: Naruepol vs Collosa (video)

As of posting, this fight only has part 1 posted. Part 2 should be up shortly. I actually saw this fight posted back when it happened around 2008, but I couldn't find the old link.



Collosa, for those of you who don't know, is a gangster. This guy has fought Yod twice, and was able to win one of those fights.


Naruepol is a former lumpinee champion who gained the most recognition on the Contender Asia.

Here are all the bouts in the infamous rivalry between Ramon Dekkers and Coban Lookchaomaesitong.

For those not in the know, these two fighters were both two of the most explosive athletes of their time, and just about never backed down in a fight. Put the two together in the ring and you get fireworks. Put them in the ring 4 times and you get this collection of quality entertainment.

There are always a million reasons not to do something

"You can have an injury, get a new b/f or g/f, work overtime or just be lazy but every one of these is just an excuse. Take away injury, take away g/f, b/f, work and what are you left with? YOURSELF. Take care of YOURSELF first before you start to make time for these excuses."
