Dany Bill is a 7-Time World Muay Thai champion from Muay Thai's golden era and touted as possibly the most technically gifted fighter to ever compete in the sport of Muay Thai. He won the coveted Kings Cup in Thailand in it's inaugural year of 1993, to the dismay of over one hundred thousand Thai locals who had no familiarity with the African-European fighter. Amateur fighter, photographer and podcast host Charles Little II catches up with Dany Bill and Muay Thai trainer Shawn Yacoubian immediately following Dany's training seminar at Yacoubian Muay Thai Academy in Chatworth, California. Dany shares insights from his unique journey, locker-room stories and inside information behind his numerous victories against the best Muay Thai fighters across the globe during Muay Thai's celebrated Golden Era. Dany Bill is actively sharing his experience through Muay Thai training seminars, individual training sessions and consulting. You can find Dany Bill on Instagram @danybillofficial.

Dr. Jason Park is a Physical Therapist, Board-certified Sports Clinical Specialist and a Sports Performance consultant. I honestly hope that there is a "Dr. Jason Park" facility one day, because Jason is truly a multi-talented human. We got together and talked about his fight history, his "Muay Thai thesis" and more.

Alex Von Have could very well be the first transgendered individual to enter the Muay Thai ring. We sat down to talk about that and a whole lot more.

In this, the second podcast episode of 2018, I'm happy to have finally caught up with a unique fighter that I've been tracking since around Jan of 2016. Travis Clay (Sitan Gym, Arizona) is a WBC National Muay Thai Champion and is one committed and too often underestimated American Nak Muay.

Travis was fresh from weighing-in for his contest with Ognjen Topic for Friday Night Fights (New York) which is slated to be the first full rules muay thai fight in America to be streamed live over the internet. It's a glorious time for Muay Thai in the states and Travis and I discussed some of his past fights in particular detail. Including his pro debut against UFC veteran Jared Papazian at Lion Fight 26; his stunning fight with Julio "The Don" Peña and his epic WBC title fight last year with Joe Gogo in San Diego for Dennis Warner's WCK Full Rules Muay Thai promotion.

Travis went deep into his muay thai technique, he let us inside his head before during and after the aforementioned fights as well as discussed the nuanced differences between "Muay Thai" and "Kickboxing" and where Muay Thai may seemingly be headed in the USA over the next few years.

Sit back and take in the interview and enjoy. This is also a pivotal podcast episode for Teep This as this was the very first video podcast that I ever recorded. I interviewed and cut this podcast from my office and Travis spoke to me from his hotel room in New York before turning in to rest up for his fight the very next day.

The TEEP THIS PODCAST returns after a six-month hiatus with special guest and Lion Fight Lightweight Muay Thai World Champion Sergio Wielzen.

The hottest topic in the American Muay Thai scene at the moment is Muay Thai on the world stage. Muay Thai debuts at the World Games in Poland in July and the USMF is changing the game in order to curate the best fighters from the USA to compete against international opponents and place American Muay Thai among the best in the world rankings. This month's guests include two fighters who have represented the USA at the IFMA world championships the last two years in a row. Pro fighter Asa Tenpow (Florida Kickboxing Academy - West Palm Beach, FL) and amateur fighter Janet Todd (Boxing Works - Torrence, CA). I talked with both fighters about their recent trip to the IFMA world's in Belarus, Minsk; their opinions of the state of Muay Thai in America and the level of competition taking place at international competitions. They both shared a huge amount of their experiences from abroad and here at home; as well as where they think American Muay Thai needs help and where we're excelling as we adopt the sport and continue developing our brand of American Muay Thai. Janet Todd brought home a bronze medal from the world's this year and immediately followed that up by winning her division at the Defiant WBC Muay Thai Tournament in Tacoma, Washington (May 27-29). Janet recaps that tournament for us, which is a timely continuation of our initial coverage of that tourney with it's creator and organizer Daniel Gutierrez of Defiant Promotions (Los Angeles, CA). It's an incredible time for Muay Thai in the USA and we're honored to take part in this pivotal period in American Muay Thai history!
