The Champion of Champions this year will be held at the Montego Bay, Jamaica, on June 26, 2009 and will host bouts of top fighters from around the world including Thailand’s Contender Asia champion Yodsaenklai, two-time two time K-1 MAX winner Buakaw, and Lumpini and Rajadamnern champion Anuwat, according to Sakchai Tapsuwan, chairman of the Amateur Muaythai Association of Thailand (AMAT).
Also on the fight card are our very own Nathan “Carnage” Corbet, Eugene “Boom boom” Ekkelboom, John Wayne Parr and Angie Parr. This looks set to be an absolute ripper
Finally the Buakaw of old is almost back.
The first round he tried his punching game and in the last as you can see he started to kick and grapple finally.
Saw this vid embedded on www.mymuaythai.com and had to put it up here.
This is the Buakaw of old. Fantastic to watch. I wish he’d go back to this style instead of trying to outbox everyone as he does now
