Preserve The Legacy Sirimongkol Luksiripat was Fighter of the Year in 1972. Today we attended his cremation; he was awarded a ceremony reserved for military and government officials, even though he was neither. Muay Thai was strongly present in the event, from the attendees (the military authority of Lumpinee, the Petchyindee family, Muay Thai authorities, legends, fighters, et al), to Sagat Petchyindee (inspiration for the Street Fighter character "Sagat") and Pudpadnoi (1975 Fighter of the Year) performing a special Ram Muay and demo, and Sirimongkol's biography and accomplishments were read aloud. This book is a gift each attendee received for taking part in the ceremony. Sagat and Samson Isaan (1991 Fighter of the Year) wrestled outside before the event began. It's a day to honor Sirimongkol, but it's honoring his life, so it was full of joyful moments and, of course, full of Muay Thai. I'm grateful I met him. His absence is a loss, but his legacy benefits all.
