Cutman

You don't see them until you see them. 💥

When I was at Karate Combat, I met the Cutman crew for the first time. Immediately, I understood their importance.

They wrap the fighters' hands, they prepare the fighters' faces to prevent deep cuts, and if the fighters do get cuts, they try to stop the bleeding between rounds or use their special tools to stop any swelling.

Their arms are loaded with gear, such as special cuetips, scissors to cut the wraps, and Vaseline to stop the bleeding.

On my last day in Bangkok, we got to do a full photoshoot. A dream come true because I want to capture everything Muay Thai, and these guys play a big part in it. Extra shout out to Jerry for arranging this.

Next time you watch Muay Thai, I am sure you will see them
