After a series of legal battles and question marks surrounding his career, Buakaw is returning to the ring on Friday.
Thai Fight will be holding an event this Friday, August 17 in Leicester, England and atop the card is Buakaw. He’ll be facing Abdoul Toure from France. He was originally supposed to fight Craig Jose, but as per usual with Thai Fight cards, things get shuffled around.
Buakaw’s last fight was on April 17 in Thailand, where he stopped Rustem Zaripov in the second round at Thai Fight. Buakaw at the time was not even allowed to fight but the fight went through anyway and Buakaw seemingly fought with a flare of motivation that we hadn’t seen from him in quite some time. Toure is better than Zaripov but let’s face it, this is pretty much another guaranteed win for Buakaw.
