NOKWEED DAVEY NOKWEED DAVEY - THAILAND CHAMPION AT THREE DIFFERENT WEIGHTS
NOKWEED DAVEY , famous for his leg and high head kicks has a notorious reputation throughout Thailand
" I've seen him fought a couple of times. He did fought Jorome Labbaner a while back in Japan, I think it must of been the first K1 that was held there. I must say. IT was very exciting to watch. The weight different between the two must of been at least 60lbs. You can actually see,every time Jorome would hit Nukweed, his body would jolt back, and his body would fly back. On one occasion, Nukweed mouthpeace flew out by Labbaner's power,but Nukweed stood strong, and he would answer with a low leg cut kick at labbanner with an amazing timing. By the middle of the third round, he bleeded Labbanner's nose, and he was comming on strong at labbanner, but the round ended. I think if had been a 5 round fights, Nukweed would of won the fight for sure. Awsome bout. The other fight was against another French fighter( this time at his weight class). Nukweed won, but by the look of physical body compare to the fight he had against Labbanner, I don't think he even train. "
WMC Champions – Yodsanklai
Yodsanklai, one of Thailand’s biggest exports, has been a legend in muaythai for many years and is a two-time Lumpinee champion.
Yodsanklai shot to international fame when he appeared on The Contender Asia, the award winning reality TV show, sanctioned by the WMC in which he for 15 weeks showed as much character as he did talent.
In the end in a thrilling final beat out JWP from Australia to become the Contender Asia champion claiming a total purse of nearly 200,000 USD and also became the WMC World Champion.
He defended the WMC World Title twice, most recently stopping Vladimir Moravcik in his home town silencing the sell-out crowd.
In 2009 Cosmo Alexandre was the first foreigner to win the prestigious King’s Cup sanctioned by the WMC and in 2010 Thailand sent in Yodsanklai to reclaim the cup and it was Yodsanklai who met the King’s Cup champion Cosmo in the final after which Yodsanklai reclaimed the cup back for Thailand.
Muay Thai towards Olympic Recognition
Muaythai is going for IOC recognition. It has been a long road but April 3 will mark another historic day
in the history and future of muaythai. The world Govening Body for Professional Muaythai (WMC), the
international Federation of Muaythai Amateur (IFMA), recognised by SportAccord, the Olympic Council
of Asia and the Amateur Muaythai Association of Thailand under Royal Patronage have joined forces to
officially apply for IOC recognition and membership. The WMC was established in 1995 under the
directive of the Royal Thai Government to foster and promote the sport and art of muaythai. The Royal
Thai Government is in full support of the lOC recognition process and the Prime Minister of Thailand has
donated a special cup to the event and will be part of the event, together with the Deputy Prime
Minister, Tourism & Sports Minister and Culture Minister. The President of the Thai NOC, SAT and many
other government departments will be joining as VIPs.
IFMA is the World Federation to promote amateur muaythai to the highest level and has been a partner
of the WMC since its inauguration. General Pichitr Kullavanijaya, Privy Councillor of His Majesty the King,
the honorary President of the WMC and the President of the Amateur Muaythai Association of Thailand
which is under Royal Patronage, is also the President of IFMA. Muaythai under IFMA is included in many
multi-sports games, was recognised by the Olympic Council of Asia in 1998, and with an overwhelming
majority vote in 2006, was included in SportAccord, a partner of the IOC, the umbrella organisation for
all sports. Muaythai under IFMA is also part of the World Combat Games, also under patronage of the
IOC, in which fifteen Olympic and non-Olympic combat sports work together under the umbrella of
SportAccord. IFMA is the only federation which can apply for IOC membership and inclusion in other
important multi-sports games, for example, the World Games or University Games.
A special gala event will be held and attended by the President of SportAccord, Mr. Hein Verbruggen,
the President of the International World Games Association, Mr. Ron Froehlich, and IOC member Dr. C.
K. Wu, who is also the President of AIBA, along with many others. These distinguished visitors highlight
the respect and recognition muaythai has achieved within the international sporting community.
