Hi Maroli,
I dont understand what you mean by your last statement. I speak about 80% Thai and have no problem going around Thailand by myself talking to everyone I meet. When you live in a camp for so many years its not that hard to pick it up. Thats just like saying Asian people cant speak English because our language is so hard.


Yod and I are friends, we fought each other in Australia and have that bond, in the house we got on very well. Yod is just like evryone else and likes to tell jokes and you would catch him singing to himself all the time, really cool guy and a great fighter.

Besides the Thais, you are the only one who deserves to be there with the '16 best muay thai fighters in the world'. No disrespect, but the American guy was a joke.
You are a great ambassador for our sport JWP, I´m rooting for you to win the whole thing!

Slight fight spoiler, just a warning.

this show is great, i thought it might kinda fade from me, but week after week i cant wait for the next episode.

what yod did this week was very nobal of him. as well as jwp last week. nice to see maybe some of the "yappier" fighters going home

keep up the good work.

total cultural emmersion is suppose to be the best way to learn a language. So i side with JWP going and having to pick it up while you train would almost certainly give you working use of the dialect.

What weight are you guys fighting at? 160? I've seen all 4 episodes but I guess I haven't been paying close enough attention
