Muay Thai and MMAin Thailand

[IrishIvan]

There is a huge increase in this sport in Thailand. Thousands flock here each year for training. How about a forum for this sport?

[David48]

Why not try a Opening Post in the sports Forum and it if it gets popular ... then get the subject pinned ?

If you get hundreds following ... a Forum might just get created ...

I would follow it. Going to Thailand for training soon

I would attempt to follow it. I've given up trying to follow people in the UFC here in the US. Then when I watch a K1 event I only recognize maybe 1 fighter.

What are your thoughts about Overeem racking up the losses in the UFC? I think it is kind of sad. I expected him to dominate, but apparently his chin is made of glass.

I was thinking more about forums and stuff for the kickboxing and MMA camps in Thailand. Who is fighting here. Where the best equipment is.

dont think its so big but a general martial arts topic or something would be nice..

There is about 15 muay thai and MMA camps in Phuket alone. Its getting big

Again, start a few topics on it in the sports forum and see if it gets some traction. If there's a lot of activity on the subject your idea will be looked on far more favourably. I think you are right about it but until we people discussing it we will never be able to gauge the interest level.

Seems like a great idea for a standalone website that you could create and attempt to make a bit of money off of

People could write in reviews, you could have names, addresses and phone numbers. The little box with the Google map. Links (webpages, twitter, facebook) to famous fighters that trained there.
