Muay Thai is PAIN. Kru Bunpot was a promising young fighter climbing the ranks of the prestigious stadium circuit in Bangkok, when a knee injury sadly cut short his fight career.
Despite the pain, he couldn’t stay away from the sport he loves. Today, he’s a highly sought after trainer known for his dominant clinch style and a meticulous eye for coaching. You might have also seen him rag dolling Saenchai in a viral training video. This is his story.

What is Muay Thai to you? To this master... Muay Thai is PAIN.... Humans of Fighting Documentaries are back!

Very true, "Muay Thai is pain". You gotta have that gene, you think poker players are good at bluffs 😆
Another beautiful episode with another Thai master. Thanks once again for these contents @ Lawrence Kenshin. Very much appreciated
Yeah works for me tbh man Not really opposed to pain as weird as it sounds , it beats feeling like nothing I guess.
U guys have no idea what is pain until u go through bone conditioning, it's even more painful than ball cracks 😂
Mr. Kenshin your work is priceless and masterful. Thank you sir
Yes, Muay Thai is painful. As a mere apprentice who has only been training for just over a year and who has lived a lifetime of painful experiences, I find the intense physicality and mental clarity less painful than being idle and getting beaten up by life.
I agree. The Intensive training, sometimes 2-3 hours for me, leaves me sore and my shins and knees with splints, broken skin, sometimes bleeding. But the overall fitness, the endorphins, the blood flow, is unparalleled and improved my quality of life overall.
👍📈
Muay Thai is scary, MMA is scarier, idleness is scariest 😏 no kidding but pain means we're still alive don't abuse use it otherwise sadists all around hospital,porn, sports whatever you name it mass telling lies media, gang,war, politic,crime. Anyway beat it all fight till we become the top of the food chain no more pain, no more say, no more requesting and requesting. Just do it 👍✌️💪👆🤘
Yes physical pain is looooot easier that psycholical and social pain
@@gabrielgabriel5177 So true
When I was younger, I loved Boxing: _'Hitting + Not Getting Hit'_ Now that I am older, I love Muay Thai: *'HEART + PAIN'*
haha
Because there's no way you can avoid "pain" forever.
Truth, brother! Haha. I've been a boxer for 20 years and a Muay Thai practitioner for 2 of those years (right around dead center of my boxing career). I love both like my own children, but there's something that appeals to me to building up my pain threshold, and accepting the pain of the fight as a friend. These days, I'm no masochist, but I love testing how much I can take. It's made me realize how strong I am. Boxing taught me how skilled I can be, how I can apply knowledge, speed, strategy. Muay Thai trained me to be a tougher person. Whether it's going into a fight or facing a mundane fear like...I dunno, the dentist, Muay Thai taught me to press on and trust my own strength. Pain is part of the experience, but it doesn't have to destroy me. I take it, learn from it, and respect what it teaches me. ...Like to brush my teeth more consistently. God damn I only have myself to blame. 😅
Ok but still try not to get hit though
If you had to choose from Muay Thai or Boxing which one would you choose?
His story is a big part of the attraction I have for Muay Thai, and the Thai fighters. They’re humble, and have not forgotten where they came from. The blood, sweat, and tears are without parallel! Thank you 🙏🏻
We are always respect foreigner fighters. Everytime, they come to join the fight it become more exciting.
Couldn't agree more, it's crazy that Muay Thai known for pain is the same thing saving people from pain. Being able to let out your inner problems in a controlled chaotic way is actually helpful.
Yeah, most MT fighters seems so damn humble and down to earth compared to most UFC/MMA fighters who act like its pro wrestling or some shit like that, the reason I cant stand to watch UFC any longer.
This is exactly the appeal. Brings me to tears sometimes how these guys really give it their everything and just persevere through the pain.
I've been blessed to have the opportunity to train with Kru pot at sinbi before. Tbh, I thought he was arrogant initially. Then I realized it was mere shyness cuz he wasn't familiar with English. I clearly recall telling Kru pot that he is more than capable of learning English and speaking with his students. Kru pot made me wanna correct my form - be it kicks or knees or teeps... Kru pot is truly precious
His life sounds like it has been so hard and still he has a smile on his face. Incredible human.
Muay Thai is just too much for me now. Medical bills to pay Muay Thai training injuries are just bad. Broken shin, broken leg, broken forearms, broken elbows, broken knees, broken ribs, and etc. The body just can't take too much beating once you get older.
It is the THAI SPIRIT. SMILE THROUGH LIFE. It is in our dna.
@@coolgamers2794 how old are you?
@@coolgamers2794you can still keep training and learning new techniques or improving your form to help you with self defense… but if your body can’t take it. Avoid heavy sparring and competing.
What is his name ?
That was such a heart warming Muay Thai documentary
🔥
Agreed. He emphasized 'pain'. Just a gentle reminder.
True 🤗👍
Indeedy he such a humble man fantastic 👊🏻
agree.. brilliant.
Had the absolute privilege to have had train with him during his time in Sinbi Muay Thai in Phuket. He's a very friendly person outside of training but quite serious during training. Yes I'm somewhere in that background in the video when he was sparring Saenchai. There is no experience like training Muay Thai the old skool way. Nowadays with better education and sports science, training is arguably better but the hard training of the old traditional way puts steel into your soul. I try not to train like that anymore because my knees are already pretty bad now at 39 hahaha.. Thank you Kru Pot for your teachings and time back then! You probably don't remember me but I'll always remember you with the greatest of admiration.
Same same. What a man.
Any tips to reduce damage to knees from training/running?
@@Ravi-fx6vf I'm not a fight trainer but running on the balls of your feet allows the arch of your feet to absorb the impact instead of your heels, which sends the impact to your knees. Modern running shoes, wedge style do not help whatsoever and make it difficult to run on the balls of your feet. I run in flat thin flip flops, which helps me strengthen my toes by constantly gripping the sandals or run in thin flat runnings shoes or the 'five fingers' vibram shoes
@@adolfosantana8038 Interesting. More and more im finding that the traditional 'rules' regarding your body are often untrue, like the one about landing on your heels...
@@adolfosantana8038 I'm a grad student in a medical program, we learned about running biomechanics and we took a deep dive into the research in some of the classes I've had in my studies. Running on the balls of your feet isn't the total answer, as it places a lot more eccentric loads on the muscles of the calf that are otherwise absorbed by the heel pad. Also, if your natural gait patterns favor heel striking more at submaximal stride lengths, forcing yourself to run on the balls of your feet can lead to increased injury risks. The same thing goes for runners who naturally favor running on the balls of their feet being forced to use a gait that includes heel striking. It's a lot more complicated than simply "shoes bad, barefoot good" as well. The pattern of eversion and inversion of the foot as it moves through each stride varies a lot from person to person. Some folks with excessive eversion actually require stiff, corrective footwear in order to avoid gait patterns that vastly increase injury risks, and they would not benefit from barefoot or minimalist footwear. Similarly, people with excessive inversion actually benefit from supportive and cushioning footwear since their gait places their lower extremities in a position where they cannot displace as much impact force. This is independent of whether the runner heel strikes or uses the balls of their feet. And nobody mentions that five fingers shoes chaffe the living shit out of the spaces between each toe.... making them poorly suited to endurance running as well as for the above populations of highly everted and inverted gaits. Everyone tends to move towards a ball of the foot gait as they reach their maximal stride length, but it's thought to be due to the action lengthening the effective stride length more than because of some improved biomechanical efficiency. As previously mentioned, the heel pad passively absorbs impact in a heel striking gait which the calves must actively absorb in a ball of the foot stride, and passive force dissipation is in general more efficient... Lastly, the toe strengthening... this is a pretty crazy misconception. The major muscles associated with flexing and extending the toes are also your prime ankle stabilizers. Unless you are literally wearing an ankle immobilizing cast which completely stops the ankle from moving, your digital flexors and extensors in the leg will still be doing a ton of work. Every time you start to lift your foot off the ground to take a step, your extensor digitorum longus fires to lift your toes off the ground so you don't toe drag. This occurs with or without shoes, in any kind of shoe. Every time you push off of the ground to move forward in a step, your flexor digitorum longus and hallucis fire to flex the toes and stiffen the foot's arch to effectively transfer the force to the ground. They also act together to stabilize the ankle, preventing plantar and dorsiflexion respectively so your ankle doesn't roll over on each step. Again, this action happens with or without shoes. Even if we suppose that someone is wearing a perfectly stiff shoe, the ankle still moves and toes still move within the toebox of the shoe.... but shoes are actually quite flexible to allow the foot to move pretty freely even when the shoe is tied tight. In fact, conventional wisdom would suppose that any added elastic resistance from the shoe's materials would serve to increase the load on the muscles and actually strengthen them over time. After all, moving a shoe with the toes is marginally harder than moving the toes alone. There are of course intrinsic muscles of the foot which may be rendered less active by the use of footwear, but they don't appear to be very active in the course of a running or walking gait and thus I don't think they bear much mention in this context.
Lets take the pain.....for escaping from a greater pain,reaching a place thats far beyond me
cheers
Absolutely. 🙏🏽
Nothing is out of reach....
@sun 🤦🏿
Ain’t that right
Physical pain in temporary, the pain from not chasing your dreams is permanent.
Brain damage is permanent too
This is great wisdom. Thank you.
CTE
I love to listen to thai people when they speak English. It's a form of calmness, harmony and simplicity in it.
It seems they only say the words that matter
@@ginatorgertorgersen6636 What a beautiful way to put it. I will keep that in mind and try to implement that in life. Kob khun krab.
@@ginatorgertorgersen6636 exactly
Such a likable person! Shame that an injury cut his career short. Thank you Lawrence Kenshin, for bringing great stories of a great fighters, people all around.
I hate to tell you, but that's normal. There are very few who make it big, and even then, their lives are racked with permanent injuries that no amount of money can solve.
Muay Thai lifestyle, mentality and every single aspect of it saved my life. I managed to escape from a toxic abusive, manipulative father after 12+ years of harsh emotional abuse...Realized my potential, found my long gone confidence and became independent in life . Thank you Muay Thai.
I trained for Pot for 2 years and fought for his gym twice he is a great coach and teaches the best clinch technique if you fight under Pot you will be super fit fitter than your oponent i was never worried even in my first fight didn't feel afraid i just wanted to get in there and handle business was one of the greatest experiences in my life
Same as me. Afew trips to Sinbi getting flogged by pot day in day out for weeks and months. Afew fights under him aswell and he’s a very unique trainer… those who have trained with him (yourself) know what I mean… could name the positives about him all day and still not nail down what makes him the best. Oh and I would back myself to out clinch and bus before I could out clinch Pot bun Pot.
what's pot
@@user-zm4ng5yw6e his name is Pot Bunpot
Pot taught me how to clinch at Sinbi better than i ever did in London. Such a nice guy
*I respect all these forms, but THAI Fighters are on another level, the dedication to this art in itself is beyond anything.*
I am in awe, what an incredible story. This man was my trainer for 3 months at Sinbi Muay Thai years ago. Great teacher and a humble man. I always remember his smiles and playful pad holding when I get tired, I would catch cracks. Glad to see you again brother, take care!
I can feel the sadness inside his heart ... his friends did this to him during a game of footbal not knowing the outcome of the joke and the unfolding of his promising career
So many guys get taken down by "friends" when they're on the cusp of appearing on the grand stage. Drugs, injuries, can't trust anyone when you're moving up.
They have not so much option on their life. Muay Thai is their chance to win something. They are Thug.
This man paints beautiful portraits with pain and violence, his art is sorrow and agony, everything about muay thai is just so poetic ... thank you for this amazing post
And thank you for these words, beautiful said
This is wholesome. Muay Thai fighters are really humble. and I don't think this was scripted 1. his expressions were genuine 2. his grammar was all over the place (i'm not making fun of him, this just shows that the recording was spontaneous) I hope a lot of people (especially those who never got in the ring) would also learn from examples such as this. that we can stop saying our style is the best. in the ring, a lot of times we don't just go out there to hurt the opponent. We see them as fellow "worker", a sense of kinship is formed and we feel empathy toward one another. you will keep seeing Thai fighter runs toward to opponent's corner to check if they're okay after the fight ALL THE TIME. a hug or a "Whai" (a form of bow) would always be seen, to pay respect and to apologize.
Great documentary! I’m about to turn 46 and decided that now is just as good as any other time to start training in Muay Thai.
Good luck with injuries. I'm not being a downer, but at your age sir, injuries are pretty much common.
@@abdou.the.hereticinjuries r common period
@@TRVVPER I was injured exactly twice in my on going 5 years of training, wtf are you smoking
crazy how alot of muay thai prodigies end their careers early due to injuries ... Pot had 200+ fights in his 20s which is common for alot of fighters
Indeed
it's inevitable especially starting so young and having so many fights for year after year
I started wrestling/ kickboxing when I was 14, but these guys start so young and with such dedication...
But in his case, he got injured playing soccer, not from a fight
@@deathstarresident Thank you for this, I thought it was during a pre fight stretching.
I have heard his stories from him at covid times when i was the only guy training at with gym with Mr. Pot. He is a remarkable coach! The best technique ever.. and sooo sweet guy! That was a unique experience to start muay thai with him. I am lucky
I started taking Muay Thai classes in early April at the age of 42. I used to play a lot of sports over the years, but fell out of it for a while now. I will say Muay Thai has reawakened my competitive spirit, and I love working with the most advanced students during class, as I feel like I'm always picking up at least one good tip from them every night. I've never done any sort of martial arts or boxing before, so I knew I was going to be terrible at first, but the first night of sparring about 2 weeks in really opened my eyes to just how much work I needed to put in. Everything felt so fast and I was just completely overwhelmed, even though my partners were being very respectful. It just motivated me all that much more to show up to every class I can make it to, and focus 100% on the small details that really matter. And yes, there's been a lot of pain in my first 7 weeks.
@@sldX In training you will only do light sparing, and before you do anything you will spend half an hour stretching and warming up as much as possible. I assume the pain he means is him being sore, especially if you lack stamina in your shoulders. If you really injure yourself in training without competing, thats probably cause youre doing smth wrong. Start slow, be precise about it, and you will be 100% fine
@@sldXwithout pain one will not grow yes ur body hurts but the hurt steels ur mind but it’s about pushing through it and I mean your body will always be able to recuperate of ur smart with ur training and don’t have wars all the time
Since I started training Muy Thai 2 months ago my whole body has been in pain. But it has awakened my warrior’s spirit. Fighting is so much fun. The way I feel after sparring is the best natural high
Bunpot is not just a story of muay thai, his tells of adaptability, acquiring new skills, eloquence despite limited vocab and his passion. Yet never any excuse of what he didnt have. That is Great Character, and he would have succeeded in anything he touched.
Thank you so much for putting these heart warming Muay Thai stories up.
I love Muay Thai, my life have improved since I started. Pain from improving career, relationship, risk taking in general is no comparason to the pain you receive preparing for a fight (and the fight)
Thanks for this interview, Lawrence. It's humbling being taught by Thais. I'm in Singapore right now, learning at Evolve, and every time I want to quit during class, I can't bring myself to do it because of my trainers. I have fight in me too, but asking someone who's trained so much harder and given up so much more than 45min or an hour to give me a break is something I can't do. They're incredible.
What an amazing documentary about Muay Thai! I have so much respect for this man, sharing his story, passion, knowledge and vision of the sport with so much authenticity. You can literally read the kindness and dedication in his heart, the love for this sport. You must be a great trainer Kru Pot. Such an inspiration. Thank you, huge respect 🙏🏽❤️
Didn't expect the interview to be this good, amazing. I really enjoy this so humble but such a beast at heart.
Thank you for bringing us into their world. Such an intimate, touching, and inspiring interview. 💙
As usual, you are distinguished in all the topics you present. Your channel is very distinguished and is an important and great reference for martial arts, especially for your important meetings with martial arts experts.
This was so beautiful... A damn tear-jerker even. I hope that one day I can travel to train with Kru Bunpot. This inspired me so much.
Such a nice way to start the day before workout time , sitting in the morning Sunshine on my balcony with my ☕ and hear this beautiful soul speak . I feel blessed. Thank you very much for sharing 🙏🏻 physically pain can be oddly satisfying. Turning 40 this year so my training is about maintenance now days . 🌞
I tell you all the time, but i'll repeat myself. i absolutely love your portraits of legends, trainers, insiders. keep doing more of those! Kap khun krap! 🙏
I never thought a Muay Thai documentary would give me the feels... wow. :') That was damn beautiful. Really good guy, good fighter and really good trainer.
What a spirit! Gotta love this guy. Sad he had that injury… I wish that one day I could train with him. Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much for putting these stories up.
thank you for watching them!
This is totally your field L.K. You make such great documentaries. Thank you 🙏🏻 so much. You help inspire me to keep training. Thank you again. 🙏🏻
Wonderful documentary! The positive aura you caught through his words and stories is very motivating. Hard work, determination, always pushing our limits.
Lawrence Kenshin, please do more authentic videos as interviewing with these Thai fighters who has 200+ fight records. They all have experience and wisdom to pass down. In Thailand, their art is slowly dying and fading, but as fans and lovers of the sport who also practice and are enthusiasts from outside of their country, we would appreciate such feats from them through videos like this.
How is it dying? Could you please elaborate more?
My 76yr old mom, who's Thai, this isn't my real name btw, says the newest generation eats to much soy beans lol, and I also think it's the whole following of Japanese/Korean 'cutie' culture.
@@blues05 There are less muay thai fighter nowadays. New generation has more career choice and better education. Back then (also now), almost 99% of the fighters come from poverty, because muay thai is the only thing they can do to earn some money especially in e-sarn part(northeast of thailand) if thay don’t be nak muay, they be a farmer. *Please excuse my English
Thank You for spotlighting Kru Bunpot. Even though I don't know him,I can respect his words of wisdom. It is sad his career as a fighter was cut short. I would have loved to see him fight in ONE F.C. maybe I'll watch his students fight.
Meeting an ex-Muay Thai fighter in my 20's changed everything for me. He was in his 40's at the time and barely spoke English but right away the training was intense and yes, PAINFUL. I had plenty of other tough training in other styles but not near the amount of contact . Everything else focused on NOT getting hit and this focused being able to TAKE the hits. My legs and shins were wrecked for months . Never took it into the ring but I sure benefited from it and teach what I can to my students . At 57 I can still throw good techniques and my shins stayed pretty well conditioned .
Do you ever feel you regret not fighting ? Or you are content from what you learnt from the teachings ?
Did you have to take kicks to the head? I am currently training with someone very mature. So I don't have to worry about this problem. Just wanted to know if brain damage is something muay thai fighters deal with.
Kru bonpot. 10 years ago since we trained at Sinbis gym in Phuket. I hope you and your family is well
What an awesome and humble guy. Much respect Kru Pot! I'm glad you mention fighters from Isaan are strong, my current teacher here in Australia is from Isaan, Kru Gen Hongthong Lek. Hope to be as awesome as you one day. Kop khun krap!
What a LEGEND. Thanks so much for this video. Showcased an absolute legend of a man.
Masterful work as always! I always love watching these types of videos! I really learn a lot
Wow!! What an insight to the real world of Muay Thai that was!! Thanks for that magnificent & raw picture of the art of 8 limbs .. Loved it ❤️
Am I the only only to notice this or everyone is aware that most of the Muay Thai fighters are beast in the ring but a really humble, soft-spoken and cute person outside the ring..❣️
Im Thai. For our culture . If we would like to learn something new ,we have to be humble then we will get more knowledge ... maybe from seniors or trainers. It's the best way to improve skill.
It's crazy man, I've trained with world class athletes in Thailand. These people are so humble ita absolutely impressive. Thailand is an incredible country, I feel blessed to be able to train here 🙏 ❤
What a brilliant video. I really enjoyed watching this! Thanks for making it.
love this video. Muay thai is pain... I explained that recently to my daughter when she asked how life was when I was a muay thai fighter. I told her pain and sacrifice. This master explained it well.
Learning Muay Thai at a small gym in Bangkok when I was younger was no joke... Thank you for this.
ถ่ายทอดออกมาได้ดีมากๆ ขอบคุณสำหรับการแบ่งปันนะครับ Thank you for sharing this. As Thais(not boxer), we never know what they’ve been through but we know they are very tough and very professional (mentally and physically). Respect from my heart !
Another instant classic from Lawrence Kenshin!
Follow humans of fighting !
Great job with the subtitles, and thank you for this interview. This was amazing❤
So lucky to have been there to witness him training with Saenchai those years ago. What a humble guy. Thanks for the wonderful video!
This was absolutely Lovely Lawrence, thank you for sharing. Muay Thai is certainly beautiful pain. ❤️
Such a beautiful piece of documentary and life story! Masterpiece
That was the Best Muay Thai documentary I have ever viewed. Great Teacher, Fighter,& a Great Man. Kru Bunpot I will always remember You. Lawrence Kenshin Super Video!!! Award Winning in my opinion! Thank's to both of you. Bob Jackson, Papillion Nebraska
I relly love your video about fighter's life and their experience, much respect to your effort Lawrence and keep it up
This guy is great. Very honest. Thanks for the video.
he is awesome indeed
What a beautifully humble, lovely fella. Very happy and respectful of what he has achieved and wish him and his family well.
I met my wife in a Bando (fighting style is very similar to Muay Thai) class almost 30 years ago I did that, then moved to ring sports for about 5 years, retiring in 2003 as a 40-year-old heavyweight. This guy is dead-on. Training hurts. Competing hurts. Losing hurts more. Once you lose, you either quit or come back on fire. I did the latter. I didn't want to be some "fitness guy" acting cool, with the cool shorts and gear, and doing shadow boxing. I knew how to fight before I ever started Bando, but I stepped through a portal to a different universe when I committed to full contact Lethwei/Muay Thai training. It sharpened my mind and changed me for the better. I know what it is to truly exhaust yourself then go further. I know what it is to be cold then will yourself to being warm. What I could never get over is getting super-hot here in Georgia in August and having your just-came-from-Thailand psycho trainer laugh like "it is a spring day, fat boy, 50 more burpees - and don't puke on my new shoes!" I was "fat boy" as a heavyweight if I was more than 7 pounds over.
Yeah I was in Thailand during rain season a few times, just after the end of summer. 30 Degrees (Celsius) usually... during the summer (April-June) even worse... 34-40 with 75% humidity.
This is inspiring fighter story zero to hero in his own path. Thank you for sharing his life story. More kick ass stories from all the local heroes please.
Wish I watched this before I trained and fought in Thailand. I would love for this guy to train me! Love this video !
Good format, more of this stuff please!
been training over 6 years but never took the time to truly immerse myself in the culture and history of this sport until now. I appreciate the beauty of Muay Thai more and more as the years go by.
Hard to find good Muay Thai documentaries.. I loved this one. Heart and Pain is the very essence of this art. Kap Kun Krap 🥊🙏
Had the privilage to train with both Pot and Saenchi, back in the day both of them where in Sinbi Muay Thai. Amazing people in both their art and as human beings. Thx for the video 🙏😊
A very kind person, with a great heart.... Love and respect from Italy
I’ve just started. I think my coach is wise and puts me through a fair share of pain in the beginner classes. I’ll do 3 a week maybe more if my body shows good recovery. I am in love with Muay Thai. I never knew how much I like pain until yesterday we did 100 speed lead kicks on each side into the bag. I can’t wait to train again and again and to learn more about this wonderful art which has taught me so much in such a short time.
Love these type of content.
LOVE This!! So humble and wise :) Awesome video and story
Wow that was an interesting insight into this man’s Muay Thai journey from childhood to adult well done👍🏾
BIG RESPECT MASTER !!! You have a true fightersheart. Be blessed and enjoy your life. Namaste from an old school thai fighter from Holland
Thank you so much for all the videos and all ur hard work brother much respect
Thanks for watching !
Loved this documentary. Thank you for sharing
Beautiful video. Thank you for creating it
Thank you for this. Im at vacation and your content is amazing to watch
He's right, I am now a veteran of Muay Thai and from the start all I've known is the pain, I can now kick metal with my shin, pain is now in my DNA.
Una vida dedicada a su pasion. Se puede ver en sus ojos la emocion y el orgullo con el que recuerda su pasado.
Every teacher i see from Thailand seem to have such a good heart its so lovley to see!
Such a great life story and bittersweet as well. Kru pot i'd love to have you as my teacher but i am too far away. So for anyone that has the luck to have this man as his/her teacher be thankful because this world has shortage in anything ''good'' in general.
Was lucky enough to train with Kru Pot in Sinbi. Amazing individual, like most of the Thai Fighters. Can’t wait to be there again. 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for this nice interview 👌🏽👊🏽
Wow this is well above TV levels. This documentary especially the person it is about. Amazing!
Kru Pot was my favorite Thai trainer, awesome video!
Would love to score one of your videos, even just as a way to give back to you. The insight you provide is invaluable, I hope people realise what they're watching 🥋
Salute Master Kru Pot. Thanks for sharing your story with us.
Seen this before, great guy, cheers for the upload.
Awesomeness humbleness greatness ,pain is conditioning sparring is calculated aggression great narrative 👊
He has such a great, strong, but light spirit. Seems like such a genuine man. Wouldn't mind learning a thing or two from him. Man's a great mentor 👍
More of these please 🙏🏾
Thabk you for this. When i think about who i am now, i think about my youth and how driven every moment was to train, and i wish i had that drive for anything now
Great piece on a wonderful story and a wonderful coach. If your coach can ragdoll Saengchai... Train with him 💪
This channel never disappoints.
Man, I feel that. I got injured as an army paratrooper. Always dreamed of being a pro fighter. Best I'll probably ever do is local ammy shows. But, I'm starting to take a lot of pride and find meaning in training the next generation of fighters.
Very good, sincere and heartfelt video, thank you for the upload!
Great documentary! Truly inspiring!
Excellent vid! Cheers! TY Kru Bunpot 🙏
this guy so humble. and sharing his knowledge with the young.
