From the early days of the New York Muay Thai scene to working with fighters like Sitthichai, Petchpanomrung, Ramy and Selena Flores, Aziz has watched the sport evolve across multiple generations.
In this conversation, we talk about how Muay Thai has changed, the difference between old-school and modern training, what makes a good coach, and why young fighters need to learn patience.
Aziz also talks about cornering Selena Flores against Stamp Fairtex, the lessons he took from that experience, and what international fighters need to understand when competing overseas.
We also get into the bigger problems facing Muay Thai in America — including the lack of promotions, competition and opportunities for fighters. And Aziz shares the philosophy that has guided him throughout his career
