WOW, got another huge shoutout from Joe Rogan on episode 864, where he features two of my favorite fighters: Kevin Ross and Gaston Bolanos.
Kevin is a true pioneer of North American Muay Thai; in case you don't already know, here's a little introduction. There have been several American fighters that challenged the Thais before Kevin, but no one really took the time to learn beautiful Muay Thai and competed well against the Thais with it.
Ross only started at the late age of 23 with no previous athletics background, and seven years later, he'd be the first American to beat a former Rajadamnern champion (Malaipet), and then he fought a split-decision loss to a two time stadium champion (Sittisak).
After capturing a world title, he'd get the opportunity to fight a prime Saenchai for the WBC Diamond Belt. Saenchai was on a huge run, coming off wins against Sagetdao, Superbon, Petchboonchu, Nong-O, and Liam Harrison. If you don't kno
