Shout Out Fight Podcast #181 "The NakMuay Bros: Leaving Canada and going all in!"

Hello again, Fight Fam!Welcome back to another episode of the Shout Out Fight Podcast. We’ve got a few great ones coming down the pipe, and this is definitely one of them.Today I got to sit down with two of Canada’s youngest, best, and most experienced young Muay Thai fighters — Tyson and Kai Garner, the Nakmuay Bros, out of Dunamis Martial Arts here in Calgary.I’ve known these boys pretty much since day one. I’ve watched them grow from little cubs under the guidance of Chris McMillan into two incredibly talented young fighters and champions. It’s been a pleasure watching their journey — not only developing beautiful Muay Thai, but respecting the culture, travelling the world, gaining experience and, most importantly, growing into two really good young men.And now, they’re closing one chapter and opening a pretty incredible new one.Tyson and Kai aren’t leaving Canada behind — but they are moving on. They’re heading overseas to Cambodia and Thailand, where they’ll be closer to family while also going all-in on their Muay Thai journeys.What an unbelievable opportunity for these two young men.And I have to give a huge amount of respect to their parents as well. These boys have travelled the world competing in Muay Thai, and wherever Tyson and Kai needed to be, Mom and Dad had to be there too. That takes sacrifice, belief, money, time, patience and one hell of a commitment.Respect. What a family.In this episode, we talk about some of their favourite fights, their favourite places Muay Thai has taken them, what they’re excited about heading into this new chapter, what makes them a little nervous, and some of the things they’re going to miss about leaving Canada behind.If you know these boys, you know they’re not big talkers. 😂They’re quiet. They’re humble. They’re confident. And when it’s time to fight, they let their Muay Thai do the talking - Selfishly, I really do feel like Canada is losing two of its best.I’m proud of these boys. Their coaches are proud of them. Their teammates are proud of them. Their family is proud of them. And I know a whole lot of people in the Canadian Muay Thai community are going to be watching to see where this journey takes them.They’re going all-in on something they love — something I love, and all of us love: Muay Thai.So let’s make sure we keep supporting these boys. Send them some positivity, show them some love, follow their journey and let’s see what happens when two talented young Canadians take a chance, move across the world and truly go for it.SHOUT OUT TO YOU TYSON AND KAI!-- And as always, if you enjoy the podcast, please hit us with a five-star rating.
