International Muay Thai Superfights, Shah Alam Stadium - Kick boxing!

Thanks to J & X for the invite to watch my first Muay Thai (Thai Kickboxing) match-up, at the local Stadium Malawati (Shah Alam indoor stadium).



I knew it was gonna be an interesting nite when I had a stamp that said "PAIN GUARANTEED" on my arm :-)


There was all the fan-fare of the WWE (World Wrestlign entertainment) and a good Boxing match on the intro ...



I only stayed for one match-up ... Iran v Switzerland!



It was a slow start in Round One



Kicks, blows, more kicks, punches ... good stuff!


Another 3 minute round ... the action got harder and more aggressive!
The final round!
The Iran fighter beat the taller Switzerland fighter by points ...

I had another appointment, so I had to leave after the 15 minute fight ... the next fight in the ring were 2 ladies!
ps - What an interesting night!
-----------------
From the fight organiser ...
The first ever international fight event in Malaysia!
Featuring some of the world’s professional elite Muay Thai fighters from Asia and Europe, this is a competitive event pitting warrior against warrior in hand-to-hand battles of skill, honour and art not just for their pride and nationality but the prestige to be crowned Inter-Continental Champions!

Bufori Mk III La Joya @ Bufori Motor Car Co, Kepong KL

This is the Bufori Mk III La Joya ...
Classic body-shape, made of the finest Carbon-fibre + Kevlar H-weave, and powered by a 2.7 litre normally aspirated engine that drives the rear wheels. Traction control and a Sequential Shift Transmission comes as standard. Did I mention that the seats are Recaros, and a pair of them costs as much as Perodua Kancil?




Yes, this Mk III has the full options, including cool-box below the lockable glove compartment. And yes, the dial rings are 24K gold!


Yes, BBS rims!


Check out the Snap-On toolset that comes standard with the car, drrrooooool!


One more peek at this beauty ...

Bufori Mk II @ Bufori Motor Car Co, Kepong KL

This is the Bufori Mk II


Powered by a 2.2 litre engine, and it can be specified in manual or automatic transmission. It does 0-60mph (100km/h) in under 9 seconds, and comes with all the creature comforts of a modern car including a 24-karat pure gold plated bonnet emblem! I was amazed that the seats were tailored to fit the individual, like a fine suit :-) cool!
