"Wonderboy" Thompson vs Muay Thai Legend Saenchai @ Yokkao Seminar

[@jaimecottone260]

One of the pillars of Wonderboys success is his humility. He's a forever student. He is a legend in his own right but when the opportunity to learn comes, he falls right in line with the other students and listens to the master. No ego. Doesn't drink his own kool-aid...there's a lesson there!

Lol I can’t get him so slow down. He trains Muay Thai , jiu jitsu, wrestling and mma. He has a coach for each art. He trains every day including Sunday. Last week he competed in Atlanta.

How Saenchai gets that power level on the testing machine when he looked like he put no effort in to the kick is incredible. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast!

I think MT kicks are stronger than kickboxing/karate because you use your legs as a club instead of chambering it

[@PRSer]

Senchai's humour, friendliness and humility is genuine but he's an absolute monster in the Muay Thai ring. There's not too many times or recorded fights that showcases his mad ability and skill when he gets really really serious against opponents that pissed him off but he transforms into a complete wrecking machine. Most of the time he beats his opponent by superior skill and timing making them look amateur. Very rarely do you see him go full berserk mode. Truly a real all time great in the Martial Arts world. I feel completely privileged to have met him during his time training in Phuket.

[@noahcohen118]

I loved all the technical knowledge in this video, but what really stands out to me is how Saenchai is just having so much fun with it. He's an absolute weapon when he wants/needs to be, but he's full of respect and so down to earth, and between Saenchai, Wonderboy, Seth, and Icy Mike, the joy just radiated from the screen. I loved all the little reactions and jokes during the sparring. So happy you all got together with Saenchai, this must have been a unique experience.

[@backwardscapguy1476]

I loved how the sparring was very light and playful. No egos. Just martial artists having fun and a few laughs which sparring an absolute legend

[@jdmmike7225]

What an amazing experience this must have been. You can seriously hear in his voice how enthusiastic Saenchai still is about the fight game even after devoting his ENTIRE life to it. That's not just the mark of a true fighter but of a warrior. Congrats to WB, Iron Mike, Sensei Seth, Big T, Papa Ridgehand & everyone else who was lucky enough to get instruction from likely the best Muay Thai fighter ever!!! Now you gotta get Buakaw to come through 🤘🤙👊

Just this Thursday I was participating in a seminar by Saenchai. We went over quite a few of the same combinations so it’s awesome to see it here again and refresh that technique. It was an amazing time Saenchai is super nice and his crew is great. It was a wonderful experience.

[@zMxsh]

I'm shocked how easily amazed wonderboy was with the clinch work, would love to see him delve deeper into muay thai considering he's from a karate background

[@michaelcarrig627]

I just wanted to come here to say you are such a legend taking the Shavkat fight. People act like he is unbeatable, but he gets hit. Make him a wrestler and show us your development. Good luck Wonderboy. Also awesome to see you learning from Saenchai. You both bring joy to us strikers.

I am happy every time I see Saenchai! Absolute legend!!

[@anarchclown]

One of the things I have seen about Saenchai in this video that makes me impressed is the fact that he is so willing to take the techniques he teaches himself. I've seen so many teachers teach, and then have someone else be the dummy. He just teaches the technique, then acts the dummy for the person he taught it to. Even as a fighter he felt like he was quite low ego in comparison to a lot of other fighters I have seen over the years and this carries over into him as a teacher it seems. The way he smiles when people "get" his techniques is also indicative of him actually loving what he does.

[@MrBigBawls407]

Saenchai is a living legend. His techniques looks like it has karate/taekwondo influences

[@dantesapprentice4581]

It's also possible that as technique gets more and more efficient and streamlined, it starts to have the same form, which is why his muay thai might look similar to karate or tkd. To me, a lot of elite striking looks very similar.
