Master Ajarn Monlit is currently 51
years old. He holds more than 90 pro-
fessional fights. He started to fight
when he was 12, in the North of Thai-
land in a small province named Korat.
He used to travel by train all across
the country to fight. After a year, his
instructor noticed his potentialities
and talents as a fighter, and he de-
cided to move to Bangkok, the main
city. Thus, he started to be promot-
ed by the Sitpordang gym, which
was regarded as one of the best
gyms in Bangkok, Thailand. Then,
he was 13 years old and he fought
for four more years there.

An unfortunate motorcycle acci-
dent injured Master Ajarn Mon-
lit’s knee, so he was rendered un-
fit to continue fighting. This life
turn made the owner to sell the
training room and transferred all
the fighters and trainers to the
new proprietor , Fairtex gymna-
sium. Therehe had the approval
of the principal instructor and
became a trainer, he attended
Fairtex gym for 10 years and
became the youngest trainer
of Muay Thai ever.
