Is he? 'cause I'm right here and I can't see him around no more
haha everything worked out for him.
FFS read the post dude, I said confirmed. And for the rest of the rumors and stuff check those links out... omg. Wanlop is in the trailer and a few others, Ole and Arslan - and they're not in the show.

Ya I just spoke with Alain, he's back in Thailand, going for a world Championship title next week and found out he is currently ranked 3rd at lumpini in his weight category, he seems real happy! He had a bad act up of his Crones (spelling?) disease when he got to Singapore and was sick most of the month apparently, that gets in the way alot for him here as well, too bad he has that. He lost his first fight and was eliminated. Ah well, apparently the fight was awesome though, I look forward to seeing it.

You got a bit of a "tude" goin on there dont'ya buddy?

lol u tryin' to be "kewl" dude? UD is your friend. Copy & paste as much as u can, I don't give a rat's ass. I'm not your buddy.

EDIT: Oh dear, I just re-read the rules to confirm it, I almost broke the nr 1 rule "NO PERSONAL ATTACKS" and 2 "Don't make jokes about TKD". Sorry. So the PARAGRAPH got DELETED.

And this thread is a month old, why are u pumping it up? 'cause u know 1 guy in the contender? I know them all. So? I'm not posting old news. The show is almost over. See ya next season! .................... not! :P

So gaijinu are you are posting this to promote the show or to act like an ass?

You think there are better ways of revealing info on an event to people than cracking jokes about someone not making the cut I wonder if you would make it as far?

[gaijinu]

Dude, what r u talking about? I didn't make any jokes, I said I removed them 'cause of the rules. I don't want you or anyone else to misunderstand my intentions.

I'm not promoting anything, since we are here and we watch every single fight and we support every single fighter we are sharing any info we can about this show. Those guys are great, they worked so hard to get there, you have no idea. They have our respect and deserve yours. They inspired a whole new generation of young muay thai followers. Now every kid wants to be a muay thai fighter and loose the colourful belts.

The other guy posted some crap pretending to know everything about something or someone from some old trailer. And what got ppl mad here is that he leaked info about the outcome of Alain's fight and the other details. He wrote: "He lost his first fight and was eliminated." Alain probably told him all this in confidence and first thing the guy did after hanging up was to spill the beans on the first forum he could find.

No1 should know anything about the fighters, bouts or results 'till the episodes are out.

The fine is 1.000.000 SGD that's 683 153 U.S. dollars or 481 602.397 Euros or 626,566,577.29 KRW or 21.4719952 million Thai baht. Good luck.

And considering how much attention this thread got :P , some1 pls make it readonly, or in another month or so some other dude will wake up and "contribute" to it...

[Damian Mavis]

What on earth are you talking about? Copy and paste? No seriously what are you referring too? I didn't copy and paste anyhting... is that your standard attack on strangers? Go ahead and copy and paste me? You totally lost me... whoa. I thought your attitude was a little funny so I mentioned it in as friendly a way as possible... now I just think you are a jerk.... and that is being polite heh. I don't understand your hostility.

I like Alain alot, he works very hard and has to fight his condition during his attempts to be the best he can be, dropped by this forum for the first time in months and saw your thread right there. I'm an actor and involved in show business in my own right sheesh, it's not hollywood but I have a leading role in a Thai action movie coming out in a few months... I really don't need to use Alain to pump myself up heh. It is blatantly obvious that YOU are using this show and the people in it to pump yourself up so that is kind of hypocritical. And I didn't post a bunch of things claiming to know much of anything, all I knew was my friend left over a month ago to shoot contender and I was really happy for him, I didnt even know they could get eliminated! In movies we don't lose our roles in mid shoot heh. So when I saw your post mentioning the confirmed fighters I asked about Alain... and you got all pissy.

That really is unfortunate if those were secrets Alain told me, he didn't say anything like that to me.

Go ahead and make fun of my martial arts training if it really makes you feel better, I also train submission grappling, muay thai, weapons and kungfu... so make fun of all those too if you like.

I'd also like to remind you that YOU were the first one to mention details about the show. You said Alain wasn't there ANYMORE, That would mean he got eliminated to anyone that actually knew they could get eliminated, I didn't know it but sounds like most people do if it's supposed to be a secret about who gets eliminated.

Sure, whatever... like I need to.... omg... Everything is a secret in the show business... you should've known better.
Man.... I don't have time for this... 500 ppl got it, only you 2 didn't... use google or search or faqs or whatever.

Peace, see ya.
