This is the thai champion and current world champion in his weight division, i think he is 78kg.

Awesome kicker, he trains at fairtex sports complex in pattaya, near the dolphin roundabout.
You can watch him train daily,
Usually afternoon time, 3 till 5pm, i mean what else are you doing in pattaya at that time ?

You can even train yourself, if your up to the challenge :?:

1 visit cost 800 baht, or morning + afternoon 1200 baht, if you just take an afternoon session, you'll probably meet yodsanklai, even spar with him if your any good !

Training times are 8-10am and 3-5pm, get there early to change, maybe 30-45minutes, that is time enough including gym warm-up, then you get an 1 on 1 with a personal instructor, great fun and highly recommended

Thanks for the informative detailed report Whiplash... ;-)

There's a fair few Forum members who are into Muay Thai Boxing, this information should prove extremely useful for them....

Whiplash did you also get to meet "Yuk" one of Yodsanklai's training partners, a giant of a Man by Thai standards and a true gent. I spent some time talking with both at Fairtex Pattaya, not long after Yodsanklai had won the Contender Muay Thai championships .

Part 2 of interview with Yodsanklai

[Whiplash]

I thought this was a great fight, between Yod and Rafik.

I even thought Rafik was gonna win up until (04;10) punch put him down,

And then the killer knee into the chest, totally winded him (08:31)

Goodnight Rafik...

Is this the guy you mean 'Tel' ?


This short vid, shows Yak give Yod a good front kick across the ring, at 30seconds, and at 2:05seconds, you get to see an awesome display, a x31 powerful left leg kick combination.


In real Muay Thai, Yod is devastating, in some of his YouTube fights they don't fight pure 'thai' ..Ie, No elbows or knee strikes, thats 50% of his game plan

Hi Whiplash
Yes that's Yuk, that front kick of His looks fully loaded, those training left leg kick combinations of Yod are impressive not just the speed and focus but the sheer power behind every one of them.


cheers Tel
