This video is the reason why I came to Thailand to train and fight in 2022. It was an awesome experience. Fought 3 times. Won 2 by knockout and lost 1 by decision. Muay thai and the thai culture def changed me as a person. Still living here and loving it.

Saksurin precisely explained the difference between his coming up versus the guys trying out...more struggle breeds a different caliber fighter. Mentally, physically, spiritually.

[@hereticlife2546]

How many fights you had?

[@BMDecipher]

@@hereticlife2546 no professional fights but plenty of backyard/school yard, bathroom, and random street fights. Too old now to do anything professional with my experience but hasn't stop me from joining gyms and learning the craft in a "formal" setting. Has actually helped me honestly, I gotta different "sense" and it helps that I've always been athletic and flexible.

[@HN-fb6md]

As brutal as it is and as much as it seems unfair to the guys trying out, this is a great way to humble a fighter and check their ego. You can look good on mitts all day back home but lets see how you react when shits not going your way.
