Thailand’s top Muay Thai boxer Buakaw Banchamek proved too strong for his Japanese challenger and MMA heartthrob Kota Miura in their special bout last night at Bangkok’s Rajadamnern Stadium, marking the relaunch of this well-known boxing venue.

 

The match was in kick-boxing format with no decision after the fight.

 

Watched by over 10,000 spectators, many of them women, who paid 1,000 to 6,000 baht for their tickets, 40-year-old Buakaw unleashed a flying knee thrust at the 20-year-old Japanese challenger’s chest, which caused Kota to sway unsteadily.
