Thursday night fights was a great first night in Patong. It’s not just a fight. There’s a cultural element to it. Made it very interesting. The two fights that we saw were very good. There were five fights in total, but we had an early morning the next day. I would definitely suggest this Tour.

The one thing my kids (11 and 13) wanted to see while in Thailand was a Muay Thai fight and this place was great. Good seats, waiter service, and great fights at a good price.

This was an absolutely amazing experience and one of the highlights of my time in Phuket. The venue was very easy to find, which made getting there stress free. As soon as I arrived, the staff was already organized and ready to help. They quickly checked my ticket and personally brought me right to my seat, which was a really nice touch. I purchased a ringside seat and it was completely worth it. The seating was great and surprisingly very comfortable, which made it easy to relax and really enjoy the action. Being that close to the ring made the whole experience feel intense and authentic. The service throughout the night was excellent. Staff came around regularly offering drinks and food, and they were all super friendly and attentive. Everything felt well run and welcoming. The fights themselves were fantastic. The energy in the arena was incredible, and you could really feel the excitement of Muay Thai up close. It is not just a show, it is an experience. I had such a great time and would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Phuket. If you are thinking about going, definitely do the ringside seats. It makes the whole night unforgettable.

When they say ringside, they aren't kidding! These fights are also very authentic, not like other places which stage them. Food and drinks not included but it's very reasonably priced and delicious. Our seats also came with free t shirts.

It’s great to know the staff made your visit even more enjoyable. We hope you’ll join us again for another action-packed evening! Thanks, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
Very fun experience! The ringside seats are comfortable. You can get snacks/drinks from the ladies that seat you. The fights themselves were very fun and active. Gets a bit hot though once all seats are filled. Getting a Grab/Bolt was a struggle after the event. If you're from out of town I suggest getting your hotel to send a personal car for you.
Dear Ilya, Thank you for sharing your experience at Thai Boxing at Patong Boxing Stadium! We're glad to hear that you had a fun and enjoyable time, especially with the exciting, action-packed fights and the comfort of the ringside seats. It's also great that you could enjoy snacks and drinks during the event. We appreciate your heads-up about the venue getting a bit warm when it’s full and the challenge with transportation afterward. Your tip about arranging a hotel car in advance for out-of-town visitors is really helpful. Thanks again for your review, and we hope you’ll catch another thrilling match in the future! Thanks, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
This was a fun night out, perhaps my 10th time at Patong Boxing Stadium. The skill level of the fighters is OK. Not great, not what you would see in Bangkok - but definitely better than Bangla Boxing Stadium, where it seems almost like staged Mickey Mouse fights with rigged betting. There were a couple of ugly knock outs, one spectacular one through a spinning head kick, indicating (foreign) fighters not quite up to it. Nothing like Bangkok. It seems that a lot of foreign fighters come here to try their hands a becoming professionals, only to lose badly against local Thais and abandon their hopes and dreams after a few months. Still worthwile, the best Muay Thai in Patong, almost a must-see I would say
Dear mrchris, t sounds like you had an interesting experience at Patong Boxing Stadium. While the skill level of the fighters may not be on par with what you’d see in Bangkok, it still offers an authentic Muay Thai experience. The action-packed matches, including some intense knockouts, seem to make it worthwhile, especially compared to other local venues. Thanks for your review, Paul
