How Japan ranks in Thailand
How we track fights.We record fight cards from the official posters each stadium publishes on its own social media, starting 1 January 2026. A fight on MuayThaiTime means the fighter was on one of those official cards.Cards often change on the night (late withdrawals, substitutes, cancellations), so a listed fight may not have happened exactly as printed. Stadiums also run undercard bouts that aren't on the official poster; we don't track those.Rankings count these card appearances, not wins or losses. We're building results tracking to confirm who actually fought.Its place among visiting countries
Among visiting countries: Thailand is not ranked. A fight between two fighters from the same country counts once.
