Damien Trainor vs Tawatchai Budsadee I: 2009

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 มิ.ย. 2012
- This is a pretty crazy fight that took place in 2009 in the UK. Tawatchai Budsadee AKA "Juk" and now "Lucky" is a wacky fighter from Koh Samui, Thailand. He has a very unpredictable style and uses wide range of techniques, some of which are taken from Muay Boran. His many titles include the Thailand championship belt.
I personally trained with Tawatchai for about a year in Thailand and I saw him fight on many occasions. Literally, all of his fights are like this; he demonstrates beautiful Muay Thai techniques and always puts on a show for the fans.
Around the time of this fight, Tawatchai had racked up an incredible 600 fights. I met him again about a month ago and he told me he had had 700 or 800 fights.
His opponent, Damien Trainor, needs no introduction; a tough muay matt fighter from Birmingham, England. He has fought the best Thais out there and is considered a legend of the sport in the UK.
This is the first of two fights between these warriors: Right at the end of the full fight video, after Tawatchai gets his hand raised, the decision gets overturned and Damien Trainor is awarded the win. The senior judge on the night decided to overrule the others to initially award Tawatchai the win, but after the other officials read through the scorecards and noticed that they did not add up, the points victory was awarded to Damien.
You can watch both fights on the Damien Trainor TH-cam channel.
Both fighters are now retired; Damien currently coaches at his gym in Birmingham named K-Star Legacy, and Tawatchai coaches at the WMC Muay Thai Camp on Koh Samui, Thailand. - กีฬา
This is the reason why I started to be interested in Muay Thai because of these two lads... Great performance... Probably the best I ever seen yet... So, thank you to these two champ🖤
My favorite fighrs hands down!
That was some of the worst commentary- “gymnastic technique” “good techniques” “he’s doing brilliant with his technique” - not a single description to be had in an absolute stormer of a fight
It's like Neil Adam's judo commentary. I.e. fucking horrible
Cracking fight... and Damien Trainor definately won that.
Trainor’s left side was black and blue from catching all those kicks, damn. That’s a huge respect for real
too white , he showed the damages lol . I am sure the Thai were hurt , but it just didnt show.
Tom viktorsson no, Trainor’s kick is not that powerful to even hurt the Thai
When fighting there are pain
@@YotzaZero trust me,Trainor’s kicks are killers😂
@@ieru17 it’s not, not even close to killer kicks
Holy shit, these commentators really love Trainor. Im also a huge fan but I sense a little biased, had to mute it.
This match was racially biased
1:56 wow nice spinning kick
Wow. One my favorite fights I have seen.
I am not sure who won.... Damien certainly showed better technique making Tawatchai fall, but I feel Tawatchai was putting much more power into his kicks as visible from the damage inflicted on Damien's body (too bad that doesn't count as score) and probably resulted in Tawatchai becoming tired sooner.
Had I not heard the commentary I might have favored Damien more but now I am unsure if overturning the decision was fair!
Like a top notch exhibition fight merged into full contact. Insanely spectacular.
2019 still watching it cheers from morroco .
Great fight from both fighters. So entertaining to watch Tawatchai techniques. Even though we all know his techniques may not be as efficient, but it definitely fire up the crowd.
18:27 Damien heard who was the winner...
So did his opponent.
😂😂😂
If u guys wanna train with him.. go to thailand in koh samui... name of the gym is lamai muay thai camp
Zaw Tun - who mate Damian?? I’m going to Thailand this year ,...
nik lee no , the thai
Seen this many times and what a awesome fight!! Damien is a legend all round! Huge respect to the man . 🙏🏽
It is always such a treat to watch Coach Damien fight in his prime. Thai guy run out of steam and Coach Damien has Amazing technique, speed, power and stamina.
I honestly think Damien Trainor is so Underrated. He deserve way way more recognition or credit then this. Thanks again Coach Damien for posting this video.
He willing to take pain on his back and fracture ribs which turn from white to red and blue obviously.
Old school VS Hybrid style . Great fight :)
What a Fight One of the BEST EVER IN THE UK WITH Damien Trainor UK and Tawatchai JUT Thailand , OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY BOTH MEN BOTH WORTHY OF A WORLD TITLE THIS BOUT ! But a very very close contest and a Correct Re adjustment of the scoring at the end gave it to the man who just nipped it I felt too ! Damien !!!! But what a close and incredible Fight and Demonstration of MUAY Thaï wow RESPECT 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍 ...... AND I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO NOT ONLY BE SAT CLOSE TO THE ACTION AT RINGSIDE, BUT WAS THE RING ANNOUNCER M.C. At these Prestigious Fights and Event at the BOLTON REEBOK STADIUM. THANKYOU 🙏🙏🙏
For any of you that think Damien won, check this.
The Golden Er rules.
"Punches always lose to kicks
Kicks always lose to knees
Knees always lose to elbows
Elbows always lose to push kicks
Every weapon always lose to push kicks"
These were the instructions written by Arjan Prahmod, the master of the Golden Age gym Nongkipahayut, where if you know your thai boxing history, Namkabuan and his brother Namphon reigned as champions.
Rajiv Maidment Remember that’s a translation and not translated accurately to how MT is scored (and MT fights are very different now to the golden era). MT is scored on effect so how a technique is delivered and how it effects the opponent plays a huge part. Kicks will not always beat punches if the punches physically hurt the opponent. Kicks can beat punches if the fight stays at range and the puncher can’t get in or if the kicks physically hurt the opponent. If neither hurt each other then the kick will be favoured more. Anuwat was one of the top champions in Thailand....he was a puncher. kicks v knees is about distance not the technique. If you’re in kneeing clinching range then the kicker can’t kick.... if the fighter can’t get in to kneeing/clinching range the kicker will win. Elbows only score the same as punches unless they cut so the elbow can beat the knee if it ko’s or cuts the opponent badly otherwise knees will win. Push kicks....again it’s down to distance. If you can’t get close and you’re constantly front kicked away, you’ll lose. Get past the front kick you’ll win. Push kicks aren’t the highest scoring technique in MT....and the later rounds hold more value then the early rounds. Hope some of that makes sense 😉👍
That rotational flying kick of Tawatchai is amazing and super powerfull, I love this kick
great fight.great attitude by both fighters
Omg!! That was incredible!!!
watching this in 2021!!!! love it
This was an amazing fight truly a Muay Thai display😤🔥💪🏽
Simply outstanding display!
Shut up Eddie
Damien should have definitely won this
Esta es una de las mejores peleas que hayas visto
Brilliant fight
Amazing fight❤️🔥🔥🔥
Wicked fight! Loved watching Tawatchai. You shown some beautiful Muay Thai! Can't believe this decision
Oooooooo just saw the end! Rightful winner!
Trainor has win 100 per 100

The best fight ever..
Lmao... The commentary is so bad.
En mi vida he visto peleas
Y en mi vida he visto perrizas!
Señora perriza de estos dos grandes guerreros!
Very Biased commentary here,as there seems to be one fighter here if you listen to them!
What do you expect?! Vinnie shoreman is the most biased commentator there is. I'd happily listen to the thais
Please remember Muay Thai 'television' was still not popular in 2009. We were sometimes treated to late night Muay Thai on Eurosport. Damien was on front covers of martial arts magazines from the early to mid 1990s when he was an 'adult' champion at 16 or 17. A British commentator who knows Damien, was always going to be excited to watch a British legend, holding his own against a Thai legend.
@@p-hawk1956 ...That's not true. Muay Thai fighting with various programs has been televised in Thailand since I was young in 1970. Thai people paid much attention to it during 1980 - 1995, as MT was first introduced to the world to compete with other martial arts, i.e. kickboxing, karate, etc. However, Muay Boran (ancient Muay Thai) has also been practised over the time.
@@winwatjana9453 Thank you. When I said '"we were treated..." I meant in the UK. It used to be televised on Eurosport and maybe Channel 4 or 5 at around 1 or 2am if we were lucky. Or we could buy videos. I began in 1993 and have enjoyed the Muay Thai and Boran culture since. I trained with the Trojans, Master Lec and Tyrone Herod for years. Damien is one of the best non-Thais I've seen, he demonstrated it here and on all his fights. His style was based on Ramon Dekkers', but in all honesty, I think his technique was more refined than Ramon's. The culture slowly gained popularity here in the 80s, after Master Sken, Master Toddy, Master Woody and Master Lec appeared in the UK. Now we all get to enjoy here, Yokkao and many fights and fighters that we missed over the years. Peace.
BREAKING NEWS: They rechecked the scorecards again and Tawatchai is once again the winner by split decision! ...But don't worry, the scorecards are subject to change.
Amazing fight that! I trained with Juk a bit in Samui and he was really good. But Damien defo won that!
Perfect fair play ♡
Awesome fight, I thought he was the rightful winner as well, he scored at least 1 knockdown and they're a great deal of importance with scoring
It's a shame the commentary is so terrible on an amazing fight.
Great fight !! I'm glad I'm been trained my the best. Chad
Damien won clearly. Preasure, initiative, counter, technical.
Amazing speed and technique.
Someone remove the commentary and this will be 1000 times better
Tawatchi Budsadee is practicer of Boran Muay thai?
2020 still watching
the comentators clearly have a favorite
I gave the Thai 3 clear rounds British fighter round 4 and round 5 could have gone either ways, plus biased commentary towards the British lol
Exactly
trainor is great fighter
That music is nuts
Old man vs prime, still doing awesome job.
Dunno if yous watched till the end. It got over turned! Good fight! Nice win trainor
Both of them deserve the win they should make it a draw. Thai guy for absolutely spectacular techniques and evasion and Damian for sheer resilience and effectiveness.
Super
Dat body kick made him retire.
Tawatchai Budsadee was a clear winner. Unless the fight was organised by big organizations like UFC or One Championship, it is understandable that in most cases, if there was no K.O. and that the two fighters were even, the local fighter often won.
Even by thai rules Damien won landed the much cleaner techniques. His opponent was a lot of flash and most of his techniques blocked, countered, or evaded.
Having watched this 1st one Damien, it was a great fight. I am no expert, I seem to have read somewhere that body hits/damage counts big in Muay Thai, isn’t it one of the reasons for why victory was first awarded to Tawatchai?
for me, the most technically great is Damien while the strongest for damage is Tawachai
Damien won that all day. Landed the cleaner shots and blocked most of his opponents techniques.
Sportmanship
"hmm i cant decide"
"Well, how about a tie?"
"The Thai? Works for me"
"......Ok"
Was he 20kg heavier?? You are frightening..
Tawatchai won this.
He literally got sweeped twice
tawatchai got smoked
As soon as I hear Vinny on any commentary I shut the video off.
That looked like 5 round 1’s haha
Right fully so
Que huevos de pelados, hasta a mi me ardieron las patadas excelente resistenciq
Justice served
Tawatchai won the best shorts competition lmao
👍 Per me hai vinto te Damien 💪💪💪
Caraca top
great fight...clearly trainor won that tho...
the fight was given to him afterwards. The major judge considered Tawachai as the winner and the other two judges gave it to Trainor, however, the major judge decided to overrule the other two decisions
I disagree.
One important rule in muhay thay is that who receives major wounds loose: Trainor was devastated by Tawatchai's right kicks.
He willing to take pain on his back and fracture ribs which turn from white to red and blue obviously.
Only round Tawat won was 3 for me.
lucky! I was about to say thats the worst robbery in judging ever
Damiens body, shows it all.
maddame... that’s cause he is white
@tomaztodont🙌🏽😆e14
Fucking great fight
3:44!! Lol
0:00 couldn't even get the country name right -_- Layout also makes it seem like Trainor is Tawatchi -_-
Wow he destroyed the British fighters ribs
he knows he got kicked like 1000 times on his body side, but still didnt cover his body side from that kick
would've been better without commentary
Fixed
I mean by the best lol bloody Ipad !!

Wait trainor won
The video is not finished. Tawatchai won this fight after the result overturned and given to Damien.
The commentator was terrible. He knows nothing about martial arts and so bias. All types of kicks, flying kick, spinning kick, back kick, he called as gymnastic technique LOL if he was a soccer commentator, he would call flying header, bycycle kick, slide tackle, the goapkeeper saving the balls as GYMNASTIC TECHNIQUE. That's funny haha
Brasil Curitiba...sinister....
Why are the commentators screaming all the time?
cocaine?
Michael Haller
I turned the sound down.
Couldn’t listen to that.
OUR MAN FROM BIRMINGHAM VS the thai.
Looked like DT won.
it was a very close fight...but for me, tawasdee should have won this fight...it was very obvious that they are betting for trainor
I am evidently firmly in the minority in my unabashed enjoyment of Vinny Shoreman’s commentary
The commentary sucks!!! How biased! Lucky they weren't the judges or else the fight would've already been decided before it started! Such a shame!
Trainor won for sure !! 🖐👺 five stars !!
Damien win so far
WTF thats a joke..!
Well done Trainor easy victory and everyone knows it.
He willing to take pain on his back and fracture ribs which turn from white to red and blue obviously.
Those ribs looks like it's been cooked.
A well deserved victory for Damien Trainor! Definitely outperformed his opponent.
I think damien won for sure
Thai won square and fair
offffff
Fucking ridiculous how could he even enjoy that win wit the judges making a mistake with the scoreing wat a shmbles.. A blind man could see Damien won tat fight
