Pornsenah Back at Sitmonchai
For those of you who dont know Pornsenah, he is a punchtatsic, thigh destroying Lumpinee champion. For those of you who do know him, give yourself a pat on the back. No one can ignore the pace and force that Pornsenah brings to the ring. This guy put’s it all on the line every time.
Before the departure of Saenchai Sor Kingstar from 13 Coins, Pornsenah had already left back to his original gym Sitmonchai. It looks like 13 Coins is starting to lose all of it’s star power.
For those of you looking for an authentic Muay Thai gym with hardly any Farang (foreigners), Sitmonchai is the answer for you. With only one Farang training there at the moment, who happens to be my friend Abs, Sitmonchai can be found one hour out of Bangkok in the province of Kanchanaburi. It houses a handful of Thai fighters. Among them are Pornsenah Sitmonchai and Thepnimit Sitmonchai who carries the same style as his older more experience stablemate executing viscous leg kicks are hard hitting punches winning by knock out’s and TKO’s due to leg kicks.
Now please prepare yourself for some pictures of the gym. It’s one of the gyms i’ll be visiting in the next few weeks.

Mike,
A couple other fighters from 13 coins had had performances the other night at Raja and they got kicked out, along with “Ja”, their trainer (who’s awesome)
Def. not a good vibe around the gym right now..
Ja kicked out?! of 13 Coins or Raja?! That’s terrible
Hey Mikey!
Great job keeping everyone updated. Yes Ja is at Sitmonchai now. . . he arrived last night and is ending his relationship with 13 Coins. Great to have him here is all I can say. Kru Dam is also an amazing trainer. I’ll be working on the site in the coming week and Mike we have a room all ready for you with Hello Kitty pillows and all.
The big boss’s mom cooks all the meals too and it’s some of the best food I’ve eaten in Thailand. . . super yummy.
Yep seems to be all true. And I’m getting word that the shit is hitting the fan at 13 Coins. Can’t 100% confirm.
We’ll just have to sit back and watch how it all unfolds.
Keep us updated if you can Bill.
I planned to go there in January, not quite sure what to think now. Just bought my flight? Any input from those there or recently there?
Oh, “there” means 13 Coins…
There’s still good trainers there such as Ou.
If your in bangkok for awhile you could always try out the 13 coins gym for a week and if it doesn’t suit you, there’s always sitsonpeenong that isn’t too far away.
That’s true. However, I’m concerned that if I spend time in different gyms, I won’t be taken as serious as if I was to spend my entire three weeks at one gym. That’s why I’ll probably pick my gym and stay there. By the way, it was nerve wracking buying my ticket to Thailand recently. But its done.
