List of Every WBC Muay Thai Nai Khanom Tom Champion

This page lists every Muay Thai fighter to win the WBC Muay Thai Nai Khanom Tom Championship belt. The list is automatically updated daily, reflecting newly sanctioned title bouts as soon as official results are published and added to the database.

The Nai Khanom Tom belt was introduced by WBC Muay Thai in October 2021 as a special commemorative championship honouring Nai Khanom Tom, who is widely regarded as the father of Muay Thai.

The Nai Khanom Tom belt is exclusively contested by male fighters, while a separate Muay Ying belt was later introduced by the WBC Muay Thai as the female equivalent for selected women’s bouts.

The Nai Khanom Tom belt is a special occasion championship created by WBC Muay Thai to celebrate the history and cultural heritage of Muay Thai. Unlike traditional world titles, the belt is not regularly defended and is instead contested in selected sanctioned bouts.

Fighters competing for the belt are typically ranked within the WBC Muay Thai rankings system, although the championship itself exists separately from the organisation’s standard world title structure.

The inaugural title bout took place on the 24th of October 2021 at SuperShowdown 1 in Bolton, England, where George Jarvis defeated Toni Romero by decision to become the first champion.

No. The WBC Muay Thai Nai Khanom Tom belt is not treated like a traditional world championship and does not follow the organisation’s standard mandatory defence structure.

Unlike WBC Muay Thai World Titles, champions are not generally required to defend the Nai Khanom Tom belt after winning it. Instead, the title is awarded on selected occasions in special sanctioned bouts approved by WBC Muay Thai.

The belt was created in collaboration with the Mae Fah Luang Foundation and the Doi Tung Development Project to help promote Muay Thai alongside traditional Thai craftsmanship and culture on a global stage.

WBC Muay Thai stated that the project was designed to showcase Thailand’s cultural heritage through both martial arts and textile design, combining traditional woven materials with modern presentation.

The Nai Khanom Tom belt features hand-woven Thai textiles produced using traditional weaving techniques developed by the Doi Tung Development Project. The design incorporates traditional Thai diamond-style patterns alongside modern colour gradients intended to reflect contemporary Thai craftsmanship.

Materials used in the belt include recycled plastic bottle yarns as part of the Doi Tung Development Project’s sustainability initiatives and environmentally responsible production methods.

Commemorative belts are special championship titles created by WBC Muay Thai outside of the organisation’s regular world title structure. Unlike standard championships, commemorative belts are awarded selectively to recognise historic occasions, elite fighters, cultural significance, or special international events within Muay Thai.

These titles are typically sanctioned on a case-by-case basis and generally do not require mandatory title defences after being won.

Alongside the Nai Khanom Tom Championship, WBC Muay Thai has also introduced other commemorative titles including the Muay Ying for female fighters and the Diamond Championship for elite current and former WBC Muay Thai World Title holders.

This list is generated using fight records stored in the Muay Thai Records database. It includes every officially sanctioned WBC Muay Thai Nai Khanom Tom Championship bout currently recorded within the database.

The data is reviewed and updated daily. New title bouts are added as soon as verified results are published, helping ensure the list remains current and accurate.

Only WBC Muay Thai Nai Khanom Tom Championship bouts are included. Standard WBC Muay Thai World Title fights, interim championships, regional titles, exhibitions, and unsanctioned contests are excluded.
