Thai Boxer Wins International Cup in Spain
Wanchaloey from Jim Jam Boxing camp won the Saenchai International Cup in Spain with a third-round knockout, showcasing Thai boxing excellence on the European stage.
Madame Pim (Vichada de Smith), chair of Jim Jam Boxing camp and owner of the Knockout energy drink brand, led Thai fighter Wanchaloey Jim Jam Boxing to the Saenchai International Cup in Murcia, Spain, where he achieved a successful knockout victory. The tournament took place on September 12 at Pabellón Municipal Paco Marín in Murcia, bringing Thai boxers to compete against Spanish and European fighters to showcase Thai boxing art to the world and continue the legacy of legendary boxer Saenchai Supachai Saenpong.
Wanchaloey faced experienced Spanish opponent David in the main bout. Throughout the fight, Wanchaloey demonstrated complete boxing technique—punches, knees, elbows, and superior defensive skills—using speed and precision to read the match and counter his opponent's openings. Despite facing a highly experienced fighter, Wanchaloey used superior technique and experience to overcome the disadvantage. In the third round, he landed a powerful elbow to his opponent's forehead, forcing the referee to stop the fight.
Madame Pim stated: "I am immensely proud to send boxers from Jim Jam Boxing camp to achieve success abroad. This is an important opportunity to show the world that Thai boxing is second to none, and we continue the spirit of the Saenchai Cup to develop new-generation boxers who can stand on the world stage. Jim Jam Boxing's goal is not just victory or defeat, but to create opportunities for youth, especially grassroots communities, to use boxing as a pathway to success in education, career, and personal development."
This victory marks another milestone for Jim Jam Boxing, confirming the camp's standards in training and developing boxers who not only achieve domestic success but also export Thai boxing art worldwide, alongside the food business under the Jim Jam brand of chili sauce and seasonings with international standards—creating prestige in both boxing and Thai cuisine. Madame Pim emphasized her commitment to continue projects in both boxing and social initiatives, driven by the philosophy "every punch is an opportunity, every effort is a first step toward success," while pushing more young boxers to perform on international stages to keep Thai boxing as a lasting source of pride for all Thais.
