I should clarify, that this is all based my experiences in bigger cities outside of Bangkok (Phuket, Chiang Mai etc) and that I can’t speak for what goes on in smaller stadiums in Bangkok! Also if you train and fight in the countryside , like in the Issan provinces, I’m pretty sure all the fights will be completely ‘legit’ though I could be wrong. It also might be harder for foreigners to adjust to those places given the language barriers and not really having much around compared to the bigger cities. Though I think depending on your character it could be a pretty awesome experience! Btw make sure to subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already 😉
Good question! I don’t really know the answer. Though peds and steroids aren’t illegal here I don’t think and you can buy them at many pharmacies. I’ve heard rumours that it’s much more common among foreigners than Thais though for whatever reason.. I also don’t think they do any testing even at the highest levels (not including one championship)
From what i hear even one doesn't test in a serious way. But there is definitely some. That's the thing about our sport. U can never know who is on the sauce, and when you fight natural it's always at a disadvantage
