Something Ive always wondered about Nak Muays
How do Muay Thai fighters pay the bills?
Not big name fighters in countries with alot of promotions but just the average American Pro Muay Thai fighter or whatever...

I doubt Pro Muay Thai pays big in America (or even enough to scrape by) so they must obviously have day jobs...
Doesnt that interfere with their Muay Thai ?
How do they keep their jobs when they are constantly traveling and getting all bruised and banged up

Maybe thats why you dont see many (pro) Muay Thai fighters from America.
