Sean Wright is one of the most colorful foreign Muay Thai fighters based in Thailand. Hailing from Scotland, Sean began martial arts training at 14, trying out several forms but not liking any until he found Muay Thai, which he considers supreme in the range of striking systems.

Although his match-fighting career began at 18, it was not until he was 21 that Sean began to take competition seriously, and success followed in Britain where he became the SIMTA Welterweight British Champion and IMTC Super Welterweight Champion. Sean also chalked up notable wins in Thailand as well, including at Rajadamern and Lumpinee, and during WMC King’s and Queen’s Birthday Celebrations in Bangkok.

In March 2007, Sean defeated Kassenov Dias of Kazakhstan to claim the WMC Intercontinental title during the President’s Cup in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

A thinking fighter who takes time to work out his opponent, Sean’s Muay Thai skills has improved since moving to Thailand where he trains at Sasiprapa and Lanna Muay Thai gyms in Bangkok and Chiangmai.

Sean’s move to Thailand had been prompted by a serious fight injury and in the enforced lay-off that followed, he made a firm commitment to pursue Muay Thai to the highest degree.

He keeps up his excellent fitness level with weight training, running, swimming and climbing, generally preferring outdoor activities to staying indoors.

As of August 08, Sean Wright’s record reads 30 fights, 23 wins, 5 losses and 2 draws.
