Are Thai Boxers with the last name Fairtex all related to each other, similar to the Gracies in BJJ?

I believe that fighters who represent the Fairtex gym take up the Fairtex last name, but are not blood-related.

Its something of a Thai practce, I believe?

Oh okay, I thought they were all from the same family like the Gracies are.
