@@dariangregory6182 well if were being logical fear also keeps us alive partly from past experience or just knowing something bad is about to happen when you see it and this is coming from the person who says look past your fear and press on but that doesn't mean to discard it entirely thats just suicide
i'm so happy you put his exact words in the subtitles and didn't make it 'correct' English. The way he expresses things in his own way makes it so much more beautiful.
Maybe I'm the only Thai-guy around here.So, i gotta say.... I'm so glad to see that most of the comments admire Khun/Mr.Sagat this much. I really appreciate it guys, i really do😊
450 fights makes him a expert on fighting patterns without a doubt. No idea how his opponents face someone with this many fights and actually have a decent strategy. Time to study.
When i have money, everybody loves me,, when i don't have money, they don't love me anymore. That's why if somebody wants to love me they have to love my dog too, because soon i will be an old dog and they will still love me.

@@angiewon9 I didn't even know Sagat was there! My family love 13coins as we often dine there since around 20 years ago. Cheap and reasonable price western food. Sadly I heard that it seem like the successor only want to focus on Muay Thai gym but if the legend is there then I think it reasonable.

It’s either hereditary or obtained for obtained from to much Trauma to the brain. At least that the basics of it.
@@Jack_Krauzers He used proper defense! You could get brain damage from only one fight. Good defense will keep your brain protected. The newer Muay Bouk guys (Rodtang is a good example right now- keep in mind I'm a fan and not trying to insult the guy), though very good and always fun to watch, the way they can be so willing to eat hard shots is definitely going to have an effect on them later in life in one way or another
Make sure to find out if he's there. I know he also trains kickboxing at Tristar gym from time to time. I'm pretty sure Firas is also a student of his.
So, so much respect. So humble, but so great. I introduced Muaythai into Singapore and opened the first club with Colin with the first public championship fights for years and now flourishes. Really difficult times then, but great times, before I left for home after 25 years in Asia. It was humbling to be with such great and humble men and now at 75 I love to see these TH-cam documentaries such as this. Thank you.
wow never knew he ever met Luang Poh Khun, I remember when I was like 8-9 years old, went and help and serve Luang Poh Khun with one of his temples some where deep in the forest with my grandma what a blessing time that was.

Still looks scary even though he speaks in smiles. Love this guy for dedication and still active at his age. Thanks to him and Kenshin. This is an excellent interview and in the end it brings up my tears. So joyful to watch.
ah man, this makes me miss Thailand so much. Out of everywhere I've been in the world, I had the most fun with Thai people - "sanuk" is genuinely a part of their make-up. Never have I been anywhere that people are more forgiving of foreigners butchering their language, and more able to say so much with so few English words. He reminds me of so many amazing people I met over there - easy to laugh, but don't cross them as they're hard as steel when they need to be . Been a long time now since I was last there, so thank you for posting this - for a little while it really felt like I was back. I especially miss how good their onomatopoeia is... *bak!* :)
I am not a figher, nor do I practice martial arts. But it is impossible not to deeply admire the people featured on this channel, their sport, their art and culture, their way of life. Very motivating also for a bystander like me, really awesome!!
@@angahbg9089 Now that Mike is fighting again, honestly I think Mike would put up a good fight, but if Muay Thai rules are allowed, Mike would get demolished. Those low kicks, and clinch fighting would eventually get to him, and wear him out. Sagat would just need one solid kick to end the match after wearing him out.
What a true WARRIOR. So humble and had a delightful smile and sense of humour but you can see the “FIGHTER” in his eyes. God bless you Mr. Petchyindee.
Man thank you so much for what you do. You ignited my love for muay Thai again. I started 10 years ago and lost my passion for it some time ago but your videos showed me why I loved this sport so much at one point. It's about the excitement, the friendships you make not only with your own camp but with your opponents as well. Have a great day my friend
What a man. Such a pure and fearsome heart. He dropped some real gems in there. A great man. For some reason him talking about hitting through the target not just the target really resonated with me.
Thank you for posting this interview. It brought tears to my eyes. It was both inspiring and humbling. It never ceases to amaze me how genuine Muay Thai champions tend to be. No bragging, no stating how amazing they are. Just simple statement of facts accompanied by appropriate pride. Yet, they have the humility and the desire to improve even as the years roll on. Remarkable. I also had no idea that he had such an amazing family history!! Again, thank you and happy training to you, Sir.
I think i never ever commented on a TH-cam Video before. But i wanted to thank you for giving us this wholesome insight on Sagat's life. His story and tale are as touching as they are lighthearted. Truly outstanding human. He seems happy and i'm happy for him. Strong Heart!
God bless him, such a lovely, wise, experienced fighter and human being, alot of emotion in the way he speaks & explains things but only for bettering oneself and passing on knowledge. The guy is a gentleman and a wonderful human being to inspire to be, God bless him 🙏❤️
This is a real man. Fought for life and lives to fight. But his wisdom is far beyond just knockouts. People say that those who fight are ignorant, savage, or just stupid. I see that most morals and values in life can be learned through the training and discipline of fighting. Sagat you are a true legend.
@cunny funt True but you'd be a fool to think some retired nak muay's don't have severe CTE issues. Sagat won most of his fights and didn't get knocked down much so it makes sense he doesn't have it as bad as others.
Love this guy! This was absolutely beautiful . I am 36 and I just started Muay Thai, and doing my research in regards to its rich culture and legendary fighters. This Documentary was heart-felt and not only a lesson in the Art but a lesson of humanity.

im not into violence things especially fighting. but his story is so real, that i was touch by it. my father also have said to me, back at their era, a syiling can fill your stomach for 2 days. same as what he describing by the first money he won. ive never been so proud to a stranger before this, but he is something. someone need to make a book for him.
A real master of the art, I've trained him sagat and his older brother and have learnt alot and I will never forget what I've learnt from two of the best of. .. I wish you nothing but the best sagat
What an amazing interview. Wise words from a very professional fighter, wise words from a person who loves Muay Thai and not the money. His words and advice are top notch. Respect for Sagat.
True master of his craft. Years of fine tuning and hard fights molded him to what he is today. Such a kindle soul after so much he’s been thru. It would be an honor to train under this master.
I enjoyed watching this video so much. Sagat has a really solid fight philosophy, if you were listening... even the little bits he was showing the young boys was great to watch. It brought me back to my training days in Thailand. Big love for this mini doc!!
i never even knew about this man, and Sagat was my favorite street fighter character growing up.. i have lots of Sagat action figures still. actually, i have every single street fighter gi joe figure in my toy room. this is fascinating !

Fahkumram is the new Sagat. At least, for me...
8:06-8:19 Very similar to Akuma's "Raging Demon" stance. Maybe he learned that dance from previous encounter?
Can I have a private with him in BKK?
Even at his old age, I dont see any winning againts him.
Muehehehehehe
And Wilfredo Gomez beat him in a boxing match. I am from Puerto Rico so I have to say it. Respect to both.
His heart is pure and innocent like a child
And at the same time a killer in the ring

Yeah. Its funny how it works like that.

What an amazing interview. Wise words from a very professional fighter, wise words from a person who loves Muay Thai and not the money. His words and advice are top notch. Respect for Sagat.
that was a really cool watch. sagat was always my favorite SF character
Thanks for these mini-documentaries. Really gives an incredible insight into their lives and story that we would otherwise not get.
Thank you very much for this incredibly valuable interview & documentation
about this terrific fighter, Sagat Petchyindee !
This guy is proper class all around, as a fighter and as a person. Really honest and straight forward
this man is an example for the love of martial arts
True master of his craft. Years of fine tuning and hard fights molded him to what he is today. Such a kindle soul after so much he’s been thru. It would be an honor to train under this master.
This man is LEGEND. Sagat wants to fight at 70 years old? Damnnnnn
I have so much respect for Sagat ! Humble man & Living legend with over 450 Fights.
Thankyou for sharing :)
I enjoyed watching this video so much. Sagat has a really solid fight philosophy, if you were listening... even the little bits he was showing the young boys was great to watch. It brought me back to my training days in Thailand. Big love for this mini doc!!
Thank you for the wonderful content. I hope this gains the attention it deserves!
i never even knew about this man, and Sagat was my favorite street fighter character growing up.. i have lots of Sagat action figures still. actually, i have every single street fighter gi joe figure in my toy room. this is fascinating !
Real Thai people, I love them so much, always smiling! Love the country each year, for these people..
A living legendary warrior! Pure heart! A rare and real treasure of our world.
this had becomes one of the greatest documentaries i have ever seen 💜

Sagat is a true inspiration. At 70 years old still a badass.
True warrior. Love his raw, honest energy👊🏽

Thank you for sharing this, Sagat is a true warrior.
And I'm just finding out about this in 2019 why?
@@magnetohex703 what does that have to do with TH-cam's algorithm.
@@magnetohex703 I just asked a simple question. And you didn't ignore me you made a whole report. I must be very important to you.
@@magnetohex703 if you have bill to pay then you should not be one youtube so here the stuff if you don't have a suitable answer then tell him that and try to find an answer next time but there is no need to be rude to the vuy
Because enough money was made off of his life.
very humble guy in the day to day and fearless in the ring. this guy is the master roshi of muay thai
"He taught Firas Zahabi, who later co-founded the Tristar Gym, the art of Muay Thai." Wow !
Heck yes! Finally a doc about Sagat. Keep up the quality work brother Kenshin.
He’s also right about gambling ruined the sport
@Harambo Was that before or after he put a side bet for 1 million baht on himself? :')
@@nemjov9226 wise men take opportunit9. Doesn't matter if he said it before or after this allegation you're making, it's just as true.
@TB RC Dude i was beeing ironic. Of course he should bet on himself!
@@nemjov9226 I don’t think he met the gambling itself ruined the sport but later on they started fixing fights in order or gamblers to profit more. He doesn’t mind it as long as it doesn’t interfere with how the fighters perform.
Great interview from this Great fighter,he looks like he can still fight a true master God bless him!!
John wick loves his dog too. Don’t mess with their dogs
Fuck pets
@@TheGohthecrow Get bit by a dog? Scratched by a cat? Eaten out by a goldfish? There's gotta be a reason why you don't like pets, and judging by your reply, pets must not like you either.
@@PeptoAbismol Maybe he doesn't think dogs as pets. Like my family we only kept work dogs and no pet
@@aomda355 even so, dogs will think they're part of your family, working or not.
@@PeptoAbismol We have a strict employer/employee relationship
Great mini doc...Thanks Lawrence for the opportunity to hear the life stories of the greats of Mauy Thai...(.otherwise how else would we hear them) good work man
I am Thai. Respect all Muay Thai flighters. Long time ago, all Thais had to train the warrior boxing for flighting every enamy in any wars.
What an inspirational legendary fighter! This guy has definitely made the world a better place....Bless him.
