Video Review and Ranking Update

This championship served as the final amateur event of 2025 under Golden Mongkhon International.
The Amateur Fighter Rankings for 2025 were planned for release after the event. However, a dispute in a female catchweight bout delayed the ranking process.

Officials started a video review, but miscommunication made it hard to reach a conclusion. Because of this, the issue reached Mr. Hemanth Kumar, Founder of Golden Mongkhon International.

Mr. Kumar is investigating on this issue and speaking directly with the officials to resolve the dispute fairly. Once the review ends, the final Amateur Rankings for 2025 will appear on 17th November 2025.


The Road Ahead for Karnataka Muay Thai

The 2025 championship proved that Muay Thai is growing stronger in Karnataka. More fighters joined this year, and the competition quality improved. In addition, better coordination between coaches and referees made the event more professional.

Golden Mongkhon International and the Karnataka Muay Thai Association will continue to promote safe and fair competitions. They aim to create more opportunities for fighters to grow and compete at international levels.

As a result, more athletes from Karnataka will soon represent India on global stages.
