Malaipet with Jean Claude Van Damn....Van Damn came in to the gym a few weeks ago to meet Malaipet....they got in the ring and sparred...of course Malaipet just played with him....he may put Malaipet in one of his movies this summer!!!
Wow, VanDamm looks old. He has lost alot of muscle mass.
Right now Malaipet is not thinking about that...he is busy training for his next fight in Switzerland on May 22nd...I will post some of his traning pictures later tonight!!!
Matt
Looks like a case of life in the Fast Lane...

Is it me am sorry but i thought Maliapet would be better than i saw on superleague???
I think peter will beat him too,please dont take offence at this.
vinny
No offence taken...but this will be a hard fight for Peter for sure....all respect to Peter of course!!!
Van Damm with Jamie!!!
Flame
Was worried as people take these as personal attacks i seen maliapet in scotland in the late 90,s and was better than now but age gets us all .
No worries vinny....like him or not one thing is for sure....Malaipet is one of the hardest kickers in the game....and for me still fun to watch!!!
This after 10 rounds of pad work last night... Malaipet kick's over 100 times each leg....100 low kick's on each side then 100 body kick's on each side!!!

quote from that article...
“Kumite” will be a film where the fighting arts will be elevated by fresh ideas, engrossing story and a new type of tournament. It will create a new approach to test the top fighters with brand new faces and real champions. Van Damme has been working on the script for over three years to reach the perfection that he insists on, to demonstrate the art of winning. He has assembled a team of professional actors, stunt arrangers and artists, consultants and film crew to bring this extraordinary story to the screen. Names like Jerome Lebonner (K1 world champion, who is about to take on Mike Tyson); Malaipet (The Diamond), a real Muay Thai fighter with 150 pro fights and 130 wins; Kenji Yamaki, 1st place in Kyokushin Kai World Karate Tournament and achieved the Grand Slam of Karate (the only person in the world to have achieved this); and many more of equal stature.
Thanks Brian that will make it much easier for people to view...I have more training pictures of Malaipet tomorrow!!!
Where's Tong Po when you need him :O!!!
Were Kru Puk and Malaipet standing on stools? Van Damme is only an inch taller!
Wish I could of been there to see that, everyone looks good, Malipet appears to be in great shape. Good luck in his fight!
Oh...and congratulations to Santi!
I think pete will be too strong, IMO Malaipet has slowly declined in ability (obviously since leaving thailand) I dont think he is that old though u r right eric
Hello Mr. Dobler how are you??? You know what they say? The camera makes you look biger than you are...I guess that must me true... Malaipet is very extited but very foussed at the job at hand and that is fighting and winning. That's what he must due to get in and win the K-1 Max. It's something I have talked to Malaipet about for all most one year as a goal to be reached in 2004. Now it looks possable. One of Malaipet's dreams is to be able to buy his father a house in Thailand...this too looks possable!!! Go Malaipet!!!!!!
I think Van Damme looks good considering he is 43 years old already. He's not as big as before, but he looks to be in good shape.

Hey Flame....Are you and Malapeit helping Bryce get ready for his next fight???
Hi Chris
Yes we have been helping Bryce for a while...it was not my choice for him to fight Alan...for me there is nothing personal and I wish both fighters the best of luck and as they say may the best man win...
more of the same!!!
more of the same!!! This will be the fight of the night for sure!!! :-)
Hey Flame
Lots of respect to you for your work and effort. I post a lot of your pictures on a Danish martial arts forum but always put your name on it.
Nice pictures in this thread also and please tell Malaipet that he has a fan in tiny Denmark. And by the way I think he got robbed agains Van Venrooij in Super League. I am the Danish commentator for EuroSport but could not help but shout out loud that I dissagreed with that decision! :(
Also tell Ole I said "hi" when you see him next weekend. We used to train a little bit together when Ole was still "green" - well he was actually green as he was in the army in my home town and took his first Muay Thai class at the gym where I was preparing for my first fight.
Fingers crossed for Malaipet on the 22nd of May - I will be shouting for him LIVE on EuroSport.
And good luck to Peter as well - may the best athlete win! :)
Best regards
Larsenator

We feel the love...thanks very much!!! And we respect Peter very much and hope for a great fight!!! Ole looks on here from time to time but I will gladly pass on your greeting to him.
Greeting's from the U.S.A.
Flame
He looks in his prime who said he was old?
my money deffinatly malaipet!!!!!!
Hey John,
Not Brian Dobler, just a former member of MTA who checks in from time to time. I always enjoy your posts 'cause I get to see pics of my old friends and how well they are doing. I just wish Van Damme had been their while I was training and seen my talent, I think I'd make a much better actor than a fighter ;).
Can't wait to see Malaipet in K-1 Max!
Take care,
-Rob
Oh yeah...I remember you Rob...you fought Randy from my gym...man that was a great fight...hope they are treating you well. Take care Rob!!!!

We are off to the airport in a couple of hours...got my camera packed...will try to get some good pictures!!!

I have had the honour of training with Malipet and I would concur that he kicks like an elephant!
As far as the $1 bets go - at the time of writing this, £5 on Malipet 'the diamond' Sitprapom to win will get you £8 and £5 on Peter Crooke to win will get you £16 on BeLuckyTote.com
As an aside, a 'little bird' tells me that Malipet Sitprapom will soon be reverting to Malipet Sasiprapa - the name of his Bangkok Gym.
Other famous Sasiprapa fighters include BM Sasiprapa and Sandaj Sasiprapa (due to fight Kieran Keddle on June 6th in Plymouth UK). And I am told that Sasiprapa Gym is about to unleash another 100+ fighter onto the world stage and that this new fighter is one of thier best ever!
You heard it first on AX!
Pardon My Ignorance Sid
How can i bet a £10er on Peter?
