cmoonn.... i had just gotten passionate about muay thai 2 weeks ago and i just found out about this legend today and halfway thru watching this video i was thinking to myself he's such a great guy he should have a book written about him but just as i say that i read this comment 😔, i dunno the guy but it broke my heart

RIP นำขบวน หนองกี่พาหุยุทธ Superb interview!!! As a Thai, I was so pleased and thankful for what you and your husband did for Muay Thai. All Thai legends that you have been interviewed were the real deal at their time. Vicharnoi and Dieselnoi are the top of the top not only in their era but of all time. For this interviewed with Namkabuan, this was the best thing that could happen for honoring Namkabuan right before he passed. Probably this is the only real interviewed that Namkabuan ever having a chance to speak his minds out. Great job!!!!!!!!

[@jcmoral1978]

So many great stories in this interview. Very grateful for the effort to preserve not just technique but history and culture. RIP Namkabuan.

The old school thai champions have a great way of never saying too much and only saying something if its worth saying. Such a humble man for such big accomplishments.

[@shellstar2801]

Rest In Peace Namkabuan 🙏🏼 Thank you so much for travelling for this very important interview 🙏🏼 preserve the legacy ❤️

[@lukenothere1252]

Oh my god, just watch your trainings in some previous videos with him, his face changed so much. RIP champion.

Thank you so much for content with all legends, but mostly with Namkabuan. May he live again❤️

[@adamgrover3590]

What a beautiful interview Sylvie, your calm present approach with Namkabuan appeared to make him happy

[@blackmonfightacademy890]

Fantastic interview! He had very detailed and thoughtful answers despite what he is going through.

[@KravMagaThailand]

Wonderful interview. Namkabuan RIP & his brother Nampol RIP were lovely down to earth guys. I’d a great night with both of them many years ago at Arjarn Pramotes gym, welcomed me so much & very humorous, funny guys.

Its difficult to watch this without being reminded of my parents. Both mom and dad died of lung cancer.

[@MisanthropeAwaitingBliss]

Namkabuan was actually scary considering his Ploughing technique. He was one of the few whose technique was banned post Ring fall of Rainbow I believe. That fight of his with Therkiat after he cuts him with an elbow is crazy. That wound did not bleed much despite being deep. Only Namkabuan can get angry without raising his blood pressure

[@tdewis]

what a wonderful interview, kawp khun Maak khrap khun Sylvie.

[@eve153_]

Just 2 months before he passed away. RIP Legend ❤

[@chenzenzo]

He won it all and kept fighting. Norm Macdonald said it best. Nobody loses to cancer. When you die, it dies and it's always a draw. Rest easy.

You should do one like this with other legends too would be cool to hear their stories in depth, yodkunpol for example.

Sylvie, your Thai is great for a Farang! I need to learn too! How long did it take you to get a working knowledge of Thai?

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIucY5uLp7eHb6s In case anyone wants to know why plowing was forbidden in Muay-thai here's the link. One of the fighters accidently broke his neck while plowing.

[@Skiamakhos]

What's the plowing style he refers to, and why did it get banned?

[@8limbsUs]

The current rules are that you cannot take more than 2 steps while holding a caught kick. Plowing is prior to that rule, you could catch a kick and run someone clear across and in some cases out of the ring. They banned it for safety reasons.

[@Skiamakhos]

@@8limbsUs ah! Yeah, when you put it like that I can see the image, like the supporting leg is the plow blade & the kicking leg's the handle.

[@RaymondMillbrae]

Nice interview. Sad, but glad it is saved for posterity reasons. Curious, was he a heavy smoker or drinker?

[@mytube9182]

Ajarn Pramot, his teacher gave an interview that Namkabuan didn't drink or smoke. He also mentioned Namlabuan's bone metastasis as his cause of death (that isn't reported in news). The riddle here is, so if he didn't smoke then what'd have caused his lung cancer, the primary disease before the cancer relocated to his bones. One thing we know is his restaurant is mainly selling Thai style pan Bar-B-Q, such a place is full of unhealthy smokes, let alone the the fact that customers are smoking a lot in this kind of restaurant. Can never judge what exactly was the cause but given that it wasn't smoking there's still a good explanation.
