I stayed at my friends house there and spent a couple of brief days at the gym and watched a thai boxing tournament nearby where an S1 title was up for grabs and was won by a nongkee fighter.

A really excellent gym and possibly in contention for the best gym i have trained at. Dont be put off by its distance from bangkok, this gym fights in Ratchadamneon and Lumpini at the highest level and has produced many champions. I highly recommend this gym if you going to thailand and looking for somewhere to train.
Only warning is dont go if you want any nightlife, its bed early there and nothing happens after 8pm.

thats all.
Good shout Ghost,

A good friend of mine learnt most of what he knows about clinch etc from Nongkee camp,he went there a long time ago when Namphon was boxing,he went back and forward for many years and named his camp in the UK after Nongkee Phayuth (now changed to Dean White gym).
