    oh but there is a thai gym in waterford. but hang he is a member of the IMC. that wouldnt do for a man with tonnes of fights and years of training like you. you would have to ask him everything he has ever done and what he had for breakfast too. then you could go in and give him a few pointers or maybe he islying about everything he has ever done and you can tell the world about him

    ive never said i fought.....but i have been training a long time. And I would have no problem going to an IMC gym. I have been training in one in cork a while back. As long as the training is good.

    I have to be honest ye lot on here that are defending the imc seem very paranoid. i never mentioned anything to do with the imc. only highlighted the lying on here. If you are so confident in the IMC why do you feel like you need to defend it at every opportunity, wether the topic is about that or not....

    again to reiterate - i know nothing about the imc, dont care, but i do get annoyed by people saying they are superman when they do not have a cape..

    maybe we should open a proper IMC thread where you can highlight all your achievements and answer any peoples queries...

    why do you think some clubs (e.g, bridgestone) haven't joined thus far dave?

    I'm afraid I know the reasons why (and hope that doesn't sound conceited as its not meant to) but don't want to air them publicly as perhaps the situation will be resolved in the future and I certainly wouldn't want to say anything that could damage that.

    the whole point of bringing the IMC into this that they wouldnt accept anybody as a member unless they knew he had the exp and knew how to teach thai boxing. and your the one who started attacking eric, i have trained in a few gyms in cork aswell as trained with eric and i have no doubt in my mind that he is a good trainer and i look forward to training with him in the future. where as you say a lot of things and have nothing to back it up unknown siam. all you have to do is come to one of his classes and you will see him train and you will see he is not lying about his exp

    just want to say one thing as i think this thread will end up getting personal. lol I set up our gym In Mullingar to promote the sport as there was no Muay Thai gyms in the midlands. So i would appreciate it if you didnt start with all that "what are you doing to promote the sport".
    Also I quite clearly said that i do not know much about the IMC, that wasn't a 'dig' its just a fact and i will look into it next year as im totally for a governing body and everyone working together...i just haven't had the time yet. :pac:

    Hi all
    Who ever this siamthaiboxer is I think you are only here to stir things up for no good reason or you have some sort of beef with Eric,
    There will be a lot of good things happening in the new year with Muaythai in Ireland, and the IMC will be in the four front of these exciting time ahead. We are in talks with many of the Clubs that are not already involved with the IMC yet and are delighted to say that at least 4 of those clubs have agree and will be on bored the IMC in the New Year.
    But until we all finalize everything we don’t want to upset or jeopardize any of the progress we have made all behind the Scene .
    Open forums are no place for issues like these, people talk there personal options with out knowing what there Coaches and Gym owners are working on behind the Scenes
    Lads there is great Talent of Muaythai in Ireland and some great teaches out there we just need to get everyone work together and the limits are endless.
    The New year holds many things for the IMC such are World Championships, European Championships, Arafat Games in Australia all under IOC and the World Sports Body’s, the Contender Ireland Season 3 With the Irish winner going forward to Represent Ireland in the Contender Asia which is on TV all over the World, There are to many things to list that the IMC are involved in but if you are involved in Muaythai in anyway in Ireland, The IMC wants you to be apart of all this and more.

    Just to finish on a positive note I don’t want to see this thread go nasty or end up insulting anyone so I think all questions have been Answer on this issue.
    If anyone wants more info on the IMC please feel free to Contact myself or Mr. Sean Dillon who will gladly answer any question you might have.

    Lads do you really think you need to of had 20 plus fights and titles behind you,before you can start up your own club?.

    Take a look at Enzo Calzaghe,the man never boxed in his life just got into the sport from taking Joe down to the local boxing club,and learned from watching others.

    What about wenger and Mourinho,they never even played Professional football and are two of the best managers around.

    the only person thats missing the point is you. the only person that says he has lied is you. and nobody else. yet people have come on here and backed him up. we have only your word saying he has lied. and yet you have refused to say who you are. even when you have been asked more than once. nobody knows what training you have done or if you even know him. your just hear stiring up ****. and disgracing him for your own selfish reasons when all he wanted to do teach thai boxing .something he has been doing very well the past year and a half. so come and stand behind your word
