Nice pix, thanks for posting. Is that the 'new' Lumpinee Stadium?

I was on Phi Phi over the holidays, saw the best white guy I have ever seen. He was about 6'4, 240lbs, and 48 years old. The fight was awesome as all fights are when a white guy is involved, the thai guy was going pretty hard right from the bell and the white guy just got a look like oh ya, so thats how it is...in a few minutes he cornered him and just came down with about five 12 to 6 elbows on the top of the head.

 

We stayed to talk to him after he said he was touring around thailand promoting his new Muay Thai gym he just opened in England.

So who is this guy? Was he trained by any of the Thai masters...Toddy, A. Sken?

My limited understanding is that MT evolved as a sport for lightweights, so very few blows would be lethal, but when heavy weights fight, the chance of a fatality greatly increases.

They don't come much bigger (or out of shape   ) than Riddick Bowe....remember his farcical Muay Thai debut in Patts?

I am not sure, I have tried to find him online. It was the most satisfying fight I have seen in Thailand. He said he was doing a tour of thailand fighting to promote his gym in the UK, so I am sure there is video out there.
