A THAI boxing star visited a Grimsby gym and gave an impressive masterclass of devastating moves.
Jompop Kiatphontip held a special seminar at the Primal Gym on Grimsby's Nunsthorpe estate.
Ally McMahon, joint owner, said: "It was fantastic to be able to welcome Jompop to the gym.
"He is a Thai boxing champion and for him to deliver a session to our members was a fantastic opportunity for them to learn from a real master.
"He came down to increase our fighters' ability in the 'science of the eight limbs' and it was really useful for them to be able to train with someone of his calibre.
"With his help, they picked up some excellent, devastating techniques that they will be able to use in their fights in the coming weeks.
"We look forward to working with Jompop in the future – he was excellent.
"We have got a growing stable of promising fighters in both Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and K1 competitions."
Kiatphontip has been fighting since the age of nine. He built up an exceptional reputation as a junior and attracted the eye of talent scouts.
He then went on to make his career in Bangkok.
He shared the ring with some of Thailand's biggest names before retiring from fighting at the age of 23 to further his education by completing his Degree in Law.
He has since built up his own Kiatphontip Gym.
