Reccomended Muay Thai camps in Phuket
I'm thinking about flying to Phuket for a camp sometime this year, so I wanted to ask you guys - which camps do you recommend and why? Which ones to avoid? Currently I'm thinking about Sinbi, but I'm open to new suggestions. Thanks in advance.

You're a dirty man,i recommend you seek out your physician and get all necessary shots first.

If you just want to do Muay Thai then Sinbi is a good choice. If you want to mix your training then I'd recommend Phuket Top Team. I really enjoyed my time there.

Being based in Singapore I have been to Phuket a number of times and would suggest that any of Singpatong, Sinbi, Sor Sumalee would be good. But then again you probably need to be a lot clearer on what your after ie Are you a soon to be world champ - if thats the case Singpatong would probably be better as mentioned above they currently have 3 Lumpinee champs.
Also, as suggested above after my last visit about 2 years ago. Phuket is no longer a place I visit as its an absolute shit hole now compared to what it used to be like. So many scammers and its so overpriced for thailand. You really would be much better served going to Bangkok or Ubon if you really just want to train

The only reason I would avoid Singpatong is because I couldn't stand being in Patong for one day.

Generally, I'm currently fighting MMA, but I started out in Muay Thai back in the day, I'm still a standup fighting nut and always wanted to travel to Thailand, train and fight there.

The only place I have trained in Phuket is Patong Boxing Gym (PBG). I have written a review in this forum which you can search for if interested. I am there now. I like it although it is less organized than in the past.
