Bangkok (dpa) – Muay Thai superstar Buakaw Por Pramuk has gone missing since early March, forcing his manager to cancel exhibition fights in Japan, France and Britain, news reports said Saturday. Buakaw, who won the K1 Max World Championships in 2004 and 2006, was last seen leaving his home on March 1, and has not been heard of since, The Nation newspaper reported. Manager Pramuk Rochanatan said he suspected the boxer may have disappeared because of personal problems. “This might have something to do with women,” he told the Bangkok Post. Buakaw, whose real name is Sombat Banchamek, was supposed to travel with Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra this week for an exhibition fight, and had fights lined up next week in France and Britain. “It's a pity because he stood to get about 2 million baht (66,000 dollars) from the two fights,” Pramuk said.
