Kesarin Chaichalermpol, better known as Nong Natt, made her Muay Thai debut last year and it didn’t exactly go to plan. But despite that underwhelming performance the former porn star has received a ringing endorsement from one of the top fighters in the sport.

According to Nong Natt she was told by Tawanchai PKSaenchaigym that he thought she was fitter than he was! She certainly spends a lot of time in the gym and posts photos of herself working out almost every day for her 1.4 million followers.

In her latest post she claims to have been endorsed by none other than Tawanchai:

Pound for pound

Tawanchai is the reigning ONE Championship featherweight Muay Thai champion and is regarded as one of the best pound for pound fighters in the sport. In 2018 he was named ‘fighter of the year’ by Lumpinee Stadium and the Sports Authority of Thailand.

He was happy to publicly confirm he had endorsed Nong Natt’s fitness levels. Commenting under the post Tawanchai wrote in Thai,

I agree, you are very fit.

Last year Nong Natt took part in a Muay Thai fight which didn’t exactly live up to expectations. She was taking on fellow model Ammy Maxim and there was a lot of anticipation leading up to the bout.

Coming back

All the footage of that fight appears to have been removed from the internet. But they both wore head gear and shin pads with the bout consisting of two 90 second rounds with a five minute break between them.

In the buildup Nong Natt asked fans to take her fighting career seriously writing that,

I have been training in Muay Thai since my early 20s. I may not be a professional fighter but I should still have the opportunity to compete as well as training in the gym.

Unfortunately her request to be taken seriously as a fighter was undermined by the format of the fight, which was clearly set up to ensure both fighters did as little damage as possible.

She admits that she hasn’t sparred at all since that exhibition match last June. But Nong Natt hinted at a comeback telling her Instagram followers that,

Tomorrow I will return to the boxing ring.

Could Nong Natt be about to make a comeback? What she might lack in skill she more than makes up for in fame so there will be no shortage of promoters looking to offer the former porn star a fight.
