Tonight Take On Productions’ September Showdown event will be streaming live online for all of you that want to see some of the best New York Muay Thai & Kickboxing action. The event will feature a great main event between Philadelphia’s Rami “The Arabian Nightmare” Ibrahim and Canada’s Philippe Allaire Landreville! Landreville trains out of Montreal’s Tristar Gym, home of UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre, while Ibrahim trains of Sitan Gym’s satellite gym in Philadelphia. Landreville brings an extensive record to the ring, with most of his fights being fought overseas against some very tough opposition. Ibrahim, who has asked to be given fights against top opponents is sure to have his work cut out for him. The co-main event will feature the talented Tim Amorim from NYC against Derrick Henriques of Canada in a rematch of their fight during the semi-finals of the TBA Muay Thai Classic in June. Both fighters are soon to make their pro debuts as they are two of North America’s toughest upcoming prospects. This one is sure to be a cracker! You can view the live stream of the event at USTREAM.TV Also on the event will be Muay Thai is Life’s own Eric Rivera providing the ringside commentary alongside The Wat’s Phoenix Carnevale! We are going to be sure to educate fans on the ins and outs of Muay Thai! So tune in! Below are our exclusive photos from last nights weigh ins!
Muay Thai is Life featured on Muay Thai Radio Episode #9
So I am currently traveling through South America, eating my fill of empanadas, arepas, and other wonderful staples of Latin-American cuisine. I’m currently sitting down looking out at the Andes mountains and wondering what I did to deserve such awesomeness in my life. Besides that, I am making good on a promise I made to all of you, and myself, regarding keeping you all up to date with the latest in Muay Thai news, articles, fun facts, etc… With that said, I recently had the honor of being a guest on the newest installment of The Muaythai Preservation Project’s Muay Thai Radio show. On this episode, the panel and I recapped Stand Up Promotions’ M1 Grand Muay Thai Championship and Lion Fight Promotions’ Battle in the Desert 3. Of note are a discussion on the Saenchai vs. Kevin Ross fight, the controversial Cosmo Alexandre vs. Sakmongkol decision, as well as other fights that were a part of these two historic events for U.S. Muay Thai.
