Buriram City, home of Khmer ruins, homemade silk, and Muay Thai will now be bringing you the first ever Muay Thai Expo. Scheduled for 4-7 October, the Expo will take place at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram City. Getting people out of the bustling metropolis that is Bangkok, this event will offer a refreshing change of scenery, and a warm welcome from the locals.

On the second day of the expo, guests in attendance will be treated to the highlight of the event— live Muay Thai action, with some of the most celebrated fighters on the Bangkok stadium scene set to compete. It will also feature an exhibition match, dubbed ‘The Legend of Muay Thai’ between Olympic Gold medalist Somrak Khamsing and golden era champion Samart Payakaroon.

The event is hosted by the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the Sports Authority of Thailand, and the Kru Muay Association.  The the expo will coincide with the Thailand’s first ever MotoGP also at Chang International Circuit.

watthanaya muay thaiAfter receiving a Muay Thai scholarship to train at a prominent gym in Northern Thailand, Watthanaya packed her bags at 19 leaving home with a one way ticket. She ended up however at a Bangkok street gym affiliated with Sor. Thanikul and married one of the fighters. They took off for Khorat and Watthanaya fought her way through Issan. Now, with a degree in tote, a four year old daughter, and a passion to fight again, she is back. Connect with Frances Watthanaya on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
