CHAPTER 1 - FIGHT NIGHT IN CHIANG MAI, THAILAND - THAEPAHE STADIUM - ANGELA

FIGHT NIGHT OVERVIEW
The fight took place in Chiang Mai, Thailand at a place call Thaephae stadium, which is a bar/stadium where farangs (foreigners) and locals come to watch and bet on Muay Thai fights. We were the feature fights on the card and there were posters all over Chiang Mai promoting the fight.

We fought for Ajahn Burklerk who was our promoter and trainer. This was a big night for Ajahn, as he had two of his fighters in the main event.

We had no idea we were the Main Fights and did not know what time were going to be fighting. We literally showed up, changed and fought. The atmosphere was crazy but very exciting at the same time.


ANGELA FIGHT NIGHT
This Angela fourth pro fight (her first 3 were in Thailand) and she did not disappoint. Angela is known for her TEEPS (Front kicks) and powerful leg kicks which she quickly put to work in this fight. Angela second round KO was great, but checkout all the other aspects that went into her fight night experience.

ANGELA POST FIGHT ANALYSIS

Angela takes you through what was going on in her mind during her fight.





WAI KHRU RAM MUAY  Wai khru ram muay is an action of respect in Thai culture that is performed by participants in Muay Thai competitions. Wai is an action of Thais to show respect to others by putting the hands together like in prayer. Khru means teacher. Ram means dance in the old Thai traditional style. Muay means boxing. Usually Thais prefer to call it short ram muay or wai khru. Ram muay is the way to show respect to the teachers and the trainers. Also, in past muay thai was usually fought in front of the king, so ram muay was also to apologize to the King for the brutality in fighting
