Highlights of Damien Trainor vs Tawatchai Budsadee The Rematch

This is a pretty crazy fight that took place in 2009 in the UK. Tawatchai Budsadee AKA "Juk" and now "Lucky" is a wacky fighter from Koh Samui, Thailand. He has a very unpredictable style and uses wide range of techniques, some of which are taken from Muay Boran. His many titles include the Thailand championship belt.

At the time of this contest Tawatchai had a crazy fight record with a staggering 500 fights and it is now suggested that he’s had close to 780.

Trainor, needs no introduction; a tough muay matt fighter from Birmingham, England. He has fought the best Thais out there and is considered a legend of the sport in the UK.

The first fight between these two ended in a very controversial way.

After 5 exciting rounds where many believed that Damien was the victor but it was Tawatchai that got his hand raised. However, the decision was overturned and Damien Trainor is awarded the win. The senior judge on the night decided to overrule the others to initially award Tawatchai the win, but after the other officials read through the scorecards and noticed that they did not add up, the points victory was awarded to Damien.

After the fight there was a huge debate online as to who they thought really won the contest.

So because of that a rematch was set just a few months after to set the record straight.

Both fighters are now retired; Damien currently coaches at his gym in Birmingham named K-Star Legacy, and Tawatchai coaches at the WMC Muay Thai Camp on Koh Samui, Thailand.
