SO YOU WANNA BE A CHAMPION HUH?

CHAMPIONSHIP BELTS 

The United States Muay Thai Association

Well, we got what you want....

The USMTA Championship belts have finally arrived in America, These belts are identical to the Thai Championship belts worn by the very best of Thai fighters from both Rajadermn Stadium and Lumpinni Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

The belts will come with different color waist bands,  and sport the USMTA color logo in the center golden style  plate, with the United States Muay Thai Association in Thai letters above the logo and English below, in blue, with the word "Champion" emblazoned in red below the logo on the silver shield, and  above the logo stands the Royal crown in red  representing the sport of Kings, and atop the crown sits the golden star of the Association.

    Let us explain how things work. There are no more State Champions, Tri-State, Inter-State or Regional Championships. Just your straight forward U. S. National Muay Thai Champions. It’s that simple...

   We've all got to start somewhere, and the beginning is usually the best place, therefore the new 1999 Muay Thai season for the United States begins with  the elimination tournaments leading up to the United States National Championships. But before you even think about wearing one of these, you've  got to register with the Association as a contending U.S. fighter.

    The USMTA is in the process of creating the best American Muay Thai Champions. We will then get them Ranked, Rated and Internationally recognized in as many countries and nations as possible. At the same time, publishing and promoting the American National Champions in as many U. S. and international publications.
