Banchamek Gym

Location
Chiang Mai, Thailand
Lineage
Buakaw Banchamek

Buakaw’s own camp, built after he left Por. Pramuk. Its interest for kickboxing rather than Muay Thai is the adaptation it represents: a Lumpinee stadium champion who won K-1 MAX twice by discarding the clinch game and rebuilding his output around hand volume and the left kick. That adjustment is the clearest demonstration available of what the clinch break rule actually costs.
