22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Thai Boxers

Rajadamnern National Boxing Stadium was built since 1941 considered the first ever combat sports stadium in the world. During a Thai boxing event in Bangkok, I was lucky enough to access the backstage and get close to the boxers just before they got on the ring. This is the one of the most important venue for Thai Boxing, in Thailand and this night Rodtang, a super star was there, so all the others Boxers were extremely tense.
