Team Quest MMA-Meet The Newest Muay Thai Coach From Team Quest Thailand
From Team Quest Thailand website:
Tanaphong Khunhankaew; or “Ping” to keep it simple, has a rather unique story for a professional fighter here in Thailand. Usually, Muay Thai fighters are introduced to the sport at a young age by their parents in an effort to earn money for their family. Ping’s father however, is a rather successful lawyer so Ping’s incentive for fighting was a bit different than most.
Ping was born right here in Chiang Mai. Worried that his son would get into drugs, his father sent him to the temple to become a monk for a couple years. At the age of 14, he was then sent to a new city to attend a prestigious school.
