    It's utterly disgusting how the Japanese judges treated him. You can clearly see that they certainly didn't like Buakaw because he destroyed their best fighters.

      Maybe but judges are biased everywhere, you would know that if you ever competed in anything at a higher level, still those judges ware assholes, idk what Japanese have to do with it but sure.

      Please add legendary (a bit old, too) Saenchai who is so softer and almost gentle. surely friendly, but very efective - like the strike he uses so often to get the oponnent down to the ground..., etc. In nearly opostte ways, both raised muai thai level, international recognition. Buakaw os more fearless, fear maker, destroing right low kicks and an amazing left cross punch. Saenchi is more like a performer, he does put quite a show, and in the end, all is friendly

    When I was in Thailand and my friend, a local and a former Muay Thai boxer, brought me to a gym to for some lessons and I asked him to strike me. He told me I needed a pad and I insisted not to but he ended up getting a pad for me to hold and just one kick knocked me off my feet. So I got up, asked him to do it without the pad and he said "your ribs will break" and he gave me some strikes at 30-50% and I was bruised for a week. We got some food with some other fighters that evening and I'll never forget when I asked what would happen if Buakaw striked me and my friend translated and they all laughed and my friend replied "you'd die!" and I asked what if he striked them? and they all laughed and my friend said "you die....we die....we all die" lol

    I hadn’t known about Buakaw until a few years ago when I started really getting into combat sports. When I say this man is one of the all time greatest athletes in any sport, I truly mean it. He may not be as popular as Ronaldo or LeBron, but this guy puts in twice as much work both physically and mentally. Muay Thai training regiments are brutal and the vast majority of people wouldn’t last a day working out at these guys’ level. These fighters might as well be from another planet with the way they are disciplined and the amount of work they put into their craft.

If talent is not part of buakaw then there will be many buakaw but no, there is only 1 buakaw. Buakaw have a talent that no one can ever get with just hard work.

    Buakaw and Dekker....hearts of lions...fearless.....scary scary intimidating monsters in the ring. What a thrill to see his timing and angles of attack. Killer instincts.

    Had the honor to watch some of Buakaw's fights live back in the 90s and it was damn impressive, I can tell you that !
