Max Muay Thai (also stylized as MAX Muay Thai; Thai: แม็กซ์มวยไทย) is a stadium, organizer, TV Show and live broadcaster of Muay Thai events in Pattaya.[1][2][3] The struggles of the Max Muay Thai are approved by WMC (World Boxing Council Muaythai) ranking.[4]

History[]

Max Muay Thai was founded in 2013 by Nawat Tohjaroensuk, a former Deputy Prime Minister and member of the Thai House of Representatives.[5] In 2014, its management was entrusted to his 24-year-old son Asira Tohjaroensuk. The stadium's annual revenue in 2018 was estimated at 200 million THB, a 40% increase over 2017. In 2019, Max Muay Thai was able to invite more than 500 foreign fighters from 80 countries to events. Therefore, the promotion was considered to be a useful tool in tourism.[6]

TV Show[]

At first it was only on weekends and then it became the only Muay Thai organization in Thailand that broadcast live 7 days a week. From the very beginning, Max Muay Thai took over the live broadcast of Thai television and was able to attract a large audience with new methods of advertising.[7] Girls' dancing between rounds of the competition (like European promoters), awarding spectators prizes, lotteries and bonuses to fighters were ways to attract the audience and grow the organization.[8][9][10]

This method was completely different from large stadiums such as Lumpinee and Rajadamnern. They reduced the competition time from 5 minutes to 3 minutes and from 5 rounds to 3 rounds to attract fighters with less fatigue and high quality combat.[11][12][13][14]

Live broadcasts[]

Live broadcasting from Max Muay Thai Stadium began on Channel 8 and the Max Muay Thai mobile application. In 2019, Channel 8 signed a new contract with the Super Champ and Muay Hardcore programs, separating from Max Muay Thai.[15][16]

Since then, Max Muay Thai has continued to keep its audience alive on the Line TV and NOW26 TV channel.[17][18]

Max Muay Thai's contract with NOW26 TV channel was short-lived, and after eight months due to the loss of TV viewers, the promotion resumed broadcasting on MCOT HD and Amarin TV channels.[19][20][21]

Fire[]

On February 19, 2016, Max Muay Thai caught fire. The fire, which occurred due to a technical defect in the air conditioning unit, was contained by an hour-long effort by firefighters. Experts estimated the damage at 200 million THB.[22][23]
