Results were slow coming back to me but I managed to get some of them and most with the big names. This was likely the biggest and best event to close out the year in Hong Kong. Hayabusa Fight Night 2012 had some very big names on their card. The results that I know of are as follows. If can find the videos of the event I will post them up as well.

Orono Por Muang Ubon
Orono Por. Muang Ubon started competing in Muay Thai at age 11. At the age of 15 he joined the Por Muang Ubon camp and became known among the Thai media as “Super Black”. Orono is considered a legend of Muay Thai and in my opinion correctly so. Orono’s accomplishments even among great Thaiboxers stands out. Orono is a 3x Lumpinee Champion, and a King’s Cup tournament winner and Sports Writers of Thailand’s pick of Fighter of the Year. Continue reading ‘Orono Por Muang Ubon Vs. Kaoponlek’

MTG Global 1’s Inaugural card
Muay Thai Global is a new promotion coming to California, USA. It’s often heard and just as often true it’s easier to get fights as an amateur in Muay Thai than it is as a professional fighter especially if you’re a female fighter. So while, new promotions aren’t new or unique in the storied history of Muay Thai promotions in the USA there are very few that will give professional fighters an opportunity to fight on a promotion’s first card. Another critical difference is that these are not modified rules fights these are full Muay Thai rules with no shin pads or elbow pads. Continue reading ‘The Inaugural Card of MTG Global 1’

Thai Boxe Mania
I’ve been watching this particular card develop for a while in Italy and it looks like the card has solidified into its final form. I like that the card is genuinely an international affair. But most interesting to me is the entree of Berneung Top King Boxing. Berneung has been busy internationally and recently fought Tobias Alexandersson in a close but losing effort. Berneung has also been a regular on Thai Fight. He’s an entertaining fighter who seldom lets his opponents off the hook once he has them hurt, which is often. Continue reading ‘Thai Boxe Mania November 24th’

Bareknuckle Muay Thai
The allure of bareknuckle Muay Thai continues. Though truthfully most of the fighters are no where the level of what one might see in the stadiums of Thailand or among fighters fighting internationally it holds interest among people still. Continue reading ‘Sometimes Bigger Isn’t Better’
