It's just a name, just words. Someone made that **** up in the past and now we make a big deal out of it.
Couldn't care less.

That's completely different to changing your name in the western world. Names in Thailand can officially be changed as often as you wish.Last edited by TheUntouchable; 02-06-2018, 01:47 AM.

If you changed your name legally to something that would sound cooler or avoid confusion with another fighter, I suppose you'd feel fine about it. A guy named Barry Joe Jablonski changes his name to Clint Eastwood and rattles off a string of wins, he probably feels pretty cool.
If you were on the run or ducking charges or something, someone is going to find out through the identification verification process when you apply for a license somewhere. Even if you somehow beat the system, end up on tv, that's on the internet forever and someone is going to recognize you sooner or later.

I might consider it, if I was to write I'd probably do it under a nom de plume for commercial purposes cos my real name's a bit of a mouthful, but I'd feel wrong somehow using a nom de guerre for fighting... some misplaced pride thing perhaps? Although if I was real **** and kept getting KTFO I might change my tune...
