Finally some action!!!! So it's gonna be on 21st of July, right?
How big is the hall? Anyone knows?
Btw, who came up with the name? 精武门

That´s great, i´ll be in Europe until Jul 29...

But I heard something about events in August and September too, have already started with the diet.
I´ll go and get some big-guy-sparring in Finland so watch out!
KICKZ, u heard anything about these events? They´re supposed to b qualifiers to the Bangkok World Championships..?

Hey Antti, that's too bad ... Can't change your flight at all?

nope... 5 week summerholiday, starting tomorrow...

Wow!!!! nice....

Finally some action is coming.. But dude,the fight is less than a month away.. and its not open for reg.??

And how the guys going to be ready if only got 3 weeks to train up??

You are saying 14th july theres a tournament and winners will fight on the 21st july at suntec?? 1 week apart only??

Well you all already know the Amateur tournament dates as I've mentioned it.

So why not start training hard now? It's just a matter of getting your gym to send in your names via email when the registration is open. Don't have to wait til it's open THEN you start training =)

After names and all are in,it's just grouping all of you into a weight category.

The venue for the Amateur,Novince & Local Pro bouts are to be confirmed. Unfortunately it's not as easy as setting up a ring and letting you guys bash it out.

Only the FINALS will be fought at Suntec City. Yes 1 week later....Those of you who have fought 2 or 3 times a night Im sure you won't mind the rest for a week and recovering to go at it 100% again.

But hey...if you don't want to wait a week and you wanna get it over that day. Just suggest it. We are all open to ideas.

There will be a meeting with all gyms probably over the weekend to finalize a few issues. After that,...it's all systems go!!

This is so awesome!

Godamnit. My exams are around the date of the matches.

Go 4 it guys! This is but the start of a busy schedule 4 Muay Thai this year so if u've been training and r game, nows the time to move it and bring it on! Good luck(Chok Dee) and good training to all who r participating! Cheers

Are there any female matches?

That would be nice to see... Check this out: http://muaythai.sg/hi_guys#comment-456

Yes there will be girl fights at Suntec.

Natalie (Swedish Champion) VS Thai Girl (But will check again to confirm name)

Brenda (Singapore) vs To Be Confirmed.

Ohh and in response to Antti. Yes there are another 2 more events after 21st July. So start training hard boys.

The organizers will release dates and all after this event.

Update on the Amateur Tournament

14th July at Cairnhill C.C. (Close to Newton MRT)

Weigh In and Fight Time will be informed when closer to date.

Im still waiting to get fighter details from some gyms. Some have been kind and co-operative enough to send in the details early.....others....well.....................all I can say is closing date is 2nd July.

Antti,there are some BIG guys in this tournament Amateur 93kg and another Novince 84kg? You wouldn't have needed to lose weight to fight this time. hah!

Hi Zack,
Do we need to buy 2 seperate tics if we want to go watch both the amateur/novice fights, as well as the pro fights at Suntec? Or one tic to see both? Thanks.

Hi,

Does anyone know when do the ticket sales start and where to buy tickets from? Thanks!

Hi, they'll update us soon.

Hopefully it'll be affordable.

Some of us have to attend both if our friends are fighting in novice and amateur/pro, will be very expensive to pay for two tickets,so guess most people will then choose to only attend the Suntec event. Like this not very supportive of the novice fighters if no one goes to support them, and encouraging more people to fight in future, and amateur people doing their selection bouts, hope organisers can take this angle into consideration too...... Thanks!

Hi guys,

Sorry for late response,we are trying to sort our some issues with the venues and all. There might be "A FEW" changes here and there. (Slowinski is still coming,don't worry!!!)

I will update everyone again once I get an email from Thailand.

As for tickets to Amateur/Novince Fights we are trying to make it reasonable for everyone. Like I said before,it's not as easy as setting up a ring and letting you guys bash it out. Renting Venues,Fighters allowance,Refrees & Judges....The list goes ONNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reason why we split it up is because:

1) Time constraint. At Jurong it was a 6 - 7 hour show!!! Refs,Judges,Fighters,Trainers were all DEAD by then. We all don't want something like that again.

2) If all you Amateurs/Novince wanna fight at the big shows with the big names. Guess you all gotta work your way to the top? Show us you deserve to be there? The more you want something the harder you work for it. Hence all of you improve in your game.

Alright guys,I will update A.S.A.P....Trust me it's been a real pain dealing with some of the companies.

LaterZ

Damn... I enlist on Friday the 13th July..

Update nr. ..err... 5?

Dates and venues are changed a little bit in the sense the fighters have more time to prepare. The qualifications will be on 21st of July at Cairnhill Community Club and the finals will be held at Fort Canning Park on 28th of July 2007.

The main fight will be between Paul Slowinski and Faisal Zakaria with the african champion challenging the Aussie WMC champ for the title and belt.

Now go and find out as much as possible about these guys, we need to be prepared

Understood, thanks for considering.

Hi,

Are dates changed or not?

The first post says the qualifiers are on 21st and main event is now 28th. Is this correct? Does this mean the novice bouts are on 21st as well?

Yes they are changed. As you said, novice bouts are on 21st as well.

do we have to buy 2 separate tickets or 1 ticket to watch both event?

Ok guys I hope after me editing the entire post has cleared things up.

Sorry for all the change and whatsoever....it has been a reaaaaaaal PAIN IN THE ...........................
Just when we thought everything was going smooth!!!!! We hit a wall

Anyways,good news regarding the FREE entry to Cairnhill C.C's fights.
Hope all you broke students are jumping for joy over this!!

Once again,Im asking for your full support and that you promote this too all your friends and family. Lets make it another sellout event like in Jurong. The event once again will be televised on FOX Sport and UBC. So lets show the world what Singapore Muay Thai is all about.

Thank you very much for being so patient with the organizers and all.

FREE ENTRANCE to Cairnhill CC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

93 and 84kg..? That´s BIIIGGGG! Well training is going ok here in Finland, so I think I´ll make it under 79kg without a problem. But, as always, I don´t mind a few kilos here and there, as long as there is a matchup!! But I´ll be back only in 30th July, so hopefully there is still some fights coming up!

Congrats to Zach for you great fight in Batam!

And good luck for everyone in these July events, hopefully it will blow people´s minds about muay thai and we´ll get more exposure and sponsors and big money prizes and fame and chicks!!

All the best

And we'll grab them all

Zack, thanks for organising this, and appreciate the free entry to Cairnhill CC. Will definitely support, and spread the word to everyone I know.

Money, fame i understand , whats with this chick thing? U mean gals actually like greased up sweaty guys going 4each other's throats like no tomorrow??? Ha ha! LOL. This is getting 2sexist 4me. Chokdee over and out!

LOL......Lemme me put it from a lady's point of view, we love those tight buns and washboard abs and drop dead muscles. :-\ ...Hmmm...who doesn't???

Yeah that's the spirit Kiatsongrit.

Muay Thai will only get more popular and the fighters will get better if everyone works together and starts seeing that everyone benefits from it.
No matter how big or how small the contribution is..It is still something.

Well Im only helping out with bits and pieces of organizing and sorta giving ideas. But it's hard when I have to train and work....and bloody deal with the organizing. Can get very stressful!!

Tickets will be out by Monday and I think the guys will distribute it to the gyms then.

Alright LaterZ

Will the female matches be both on the 21st and 28th as well or only the finals?

Anymore updates on this? I remember Brenda and her sister! She was a little girl when I was in MT and now she is still training..wow!! she must be all grown up by now. When will these events be on? 21st or 28th? Only 2 female matches?

How we doin' with the show? I was looking all over at freemagicspells.com.wiz and I couldn't find any anti-rain incantations ... All of them are designed to bring the rain not to send it away. Anyone has some connections at Hogwarts? We might need them really bad this time ...

Are the tickets out already? Will anyone from the public be able to buy the tickets in advance or they will only be distributed to the gyms?

Thx!

oh, is this an outdoor event? never been to cairnhill.

Hi Guys,

Tickets are currently out at BXG,Hilltop,Combat Academy and some other gyms. I can't remember all off hand. Sorry. But please have a quick look at the GYMS page and just call around to see where is convienient for you to pick it up.

Otherwise on the 21st at Cairnhill CC. The promoters will have a booth set up to sell tickets.

LaterZ

I think main fight dont need to watch already cos Paul Slowinski is going to win by ko in the 1st min....

Hey I'm new around here...

when they said Cairnhill C.C admission is free... means we don't need to get tickets before hand? We can just walk-in the day itself?
thanks ^^
