I’m in Thailand right now and I’m from the states (nj) and the weather is probably the best you can train in to get conditioning right. When it comes to fighting you will never find a more passionate area for the art of fighting. Tiger stadium in Phuket (was there last night for a fight) and it’s truly amazing. The passion from the locals and the fighters are amazing. Every single fighter has respect for one another. After each fight the fighters bow and thank each other. Some even go to the opposite corner and the coach gives the opposition a glass of water. Truly spectacular.
I have been here since I was 21 (2002) and teach English and P.E. to high schoolers in Khon Kaen currently and save as many street dogs as I can (22 currently) I agree with you and I have many nice students but the boxers are always the most respectful, modest, and will never see them bully anyone. I speak fluent Thai and pretty good cook and my little pipe dream would be to start a training center catered specifically for UFC fighters of any level who can come to train and basically cater to their needs as I know(as you do) how to get exactly what they want/need without all the possible misunderstanding or wasted time/Monet if they only have an allocated time. Thought about this for past five years and now seems even more relevant. Have fun and let's start a business. One can only dream.
@@lytaavbl4223 UA-cam is anonymous and that's a good thing. People can tell truths without someone thinking they are embellishing or full of shit. Not that difficult to move to Thailand and find a place to live. It has most of the comforts of the US at a 1/3, maybe 1/2 now the price(years ago cheaper everything and salaries have not gone up) I work five hours to pay my rent and pay about 7% income tax. Not much different, but the government here doesn't spend all our tax dollars on fighting wars with enemies they created themselves. No shame in living in a basement playing video games though, that sounds pretty nice actually. Just don't hurt or burden anyone and you are doing better than some/many. BTW my moms making lasagna tonight, you in? : )
@owen. I’m here for 2 more days. I am heading back to Phuket tomorrow. I went to koh yao yai for a couple of days. I was interested in coming back in a year or 2 for a longer time (im here 10 days.) and maybe get about a 2-3 week training done here and just see the deeper meaning of Muay Thai. Yes you can learn it in the states but there is a much deeper respect here and you can see it just by viewing the fights.
I want to do a Muay Thai camp in Thailand so badly! Def a bucket list. Watching his last fight you could see all the padwork, all the running, all the pushups...just real ass Muay Thai
Nick Hailer - don't man... you'll end up getting your ass kicked , your confidence will drop and you'll have to start taking TRT and HGH to feel like a man , don't dabble in fighting especially in a foreign country !!! - much love and respect from Brazil!!
@@beenrue5672 I'm not a fighter but isn't getting your ass kicked a part of learning? With almost every skill I know in my life you have to fail at some point in order to truly learn. If I was going to learn any martial art I'd pretty much expect to get my ass kicked in the beginning stages.
Ghost F - 100 percent if you're going to be a fighter , but if you're doing it as a "bucket list item" then save yourself the trouble and go snorkeling or ride a bike across the world , something besides gettin your entire body beaten up and humbled so bad you don't ever wana watch anything fight related again
@@beenrue5672 Thanks for the concern "BEEN" but I've trained Muay Thai for a decade. All my training partners and coaches have made a trip over for an intensive camp just to get to the roots of the martial art we love. Not about winning or losing, taking selfies, getting in shape or going chasing a title. I want to go because I love the martial art, I've always wanted to visit that country, experience the culture and test myself. Also alot of gyms over there offer programs for foreigners like me to come do a quick camp. That's what I mean. I'm not out here trying to get the Tiger scholarship or move over there and compete in the stadiums.
Tbf kyokushin got low roundhouse kicks from MT. Traditional karate didnt have roundhouse kicks, much less roundhouse kicks with the shin, and japanese karate used the ball of the foot for roundhouse kicks. Kyokushin probably got their kicks from japanese kickboxing, which was started when a japanese karate master started training his students in MT to have an effective full-contact fighting base, and then teamed up with a boxing promoter to hold martial arts fights.
Joe should really get Sylvie Von Duuglas-Ittu on his show. SUPER-interesting chick who's had close to 300 MT fights and has been learning from the all-time best MT fighters for years now. Her and her husband are actually documenting their thoughts and techniques as well.
The guy with 300 fights that Khalil is talking about is Saksurin very well known for his clinch style of Muay Thai. He's also part of the selection process in Tiger Muay Thai team trials.
Thailand is amazing. If you get out of Bangkok it's great, you can stay in a floating Villa on a running river. 'Floathouse River Kwai'. Koh Phi Phi ilsands are awesome too where The Beach & The Man With The Golden Gun was filmed.
weird, I adjust to jet lag time changes instantly upon arriving in a new country. I just wait until the normal bed time and then go to sleep and wake up at a normal time.
Hey joe Rogan I’ll trade you some Cinderella 99 seeds by the brothers Grimm, or Girl Scout cookies seeds by the humbolt seed company for one of your pipes autographed. Just think about it
I just came back from Thailand. You would be surprised the number of dagestani teams training in Phuket. It's the best place to learn striking on the planet.
I live there now. Be prepared for people ripping you off left and right. Cops asking for money cause your a "falang" They also do not like Black people. It's not a "simple" life here. Be prepared for the land of smiles, they smile cause they dont know what your saying and they just want your money. Lived here 3 years. It's not all Thai people, but its alot. I'm leaving here cause I'm tired of the facade. Thailand isn't all little bungalows and farming villages. The people are not rich and they will take as much as they can.

Also I do show respect, I know the language, I follow the laws and ya know whatever. "Cause your situation is not like mine, it must mean you are a negative and disrespectful person to the Thais" Fuck off, everyone experiences life differently. You have success? Cool! Good for you, I'll pat you on the back.

Henry Cejudo has a gold medal
Grinding and hard work paying off.. Great to see it.
Very well spoken man
his kicks are so insane. knew him from TV and then met him at TMT in Phuket and watched him kill people on a daily.
Not only are his kicks insane I’m sure he rolls steel pipes over his shins to kill the nerves in his shins and make them hard like rocks
Haha...watching this in Surat Thani with one hour of sleep that happened from 7am-8am. Jet lag was gone and then came back two weeks later.
Thailand is amazing. If you get out of Bangkok it's great, you can stay in a floating Villa on a running river. 'Floathouse River Kwai'. Koh Phi Phi ilsands are awesome too where The Beach & The Man With The Golden Gun was filmed.
20 years ago maybe... Have you been there recently? Phi Phi islands are trashed now.
You cant even go on the beach now in Maya Bay, where they shot the beach. I was in Phi Phi about 2 months ago, still a cool as fuck island.
