Comments Thread For: Bangkok: Pitfalls of Watching Boxing in the Thai Capital

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

“I’d have to get in roughly nine hours late to be in danger of missing this fight” That was my bold prediction as I boarded the night train from the northern city of Chiang Mai to the sprawling madness of Bangkok, Thailand’s capital. Somewhere amongst the chaos the unfortunate Filipino Alvin Bais, 13-0-0 (3 KO’s), would be fighting Thailand’s own Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, 15-1-1 (14 KO’s) for the WBC Asian Boxing Council Super-Flyweight Title. Well… guess what? I missed the fight. I missed all the fights.

Nice change of pace article for boxingscene, would love to learn more about boxing in thailand, as everything seems more interesting in Thailand.

Typical Thailand

Great article, a very interesting read. Thailand is amazing, but if you want to watch a fight go and see Muay Thai rather than boxing, much easier!

Sounds like it was a crazy trip.

Sometimes maps, especially those generalized on business cards, aren't enough. A phone number of the venue is more reliable. The taxi driver can then call someone and get directions.
