It took a while but they finally figured out that they could make some loot. Trolling around the site I’ve noticed their going after the Japanese first, good call. If you haven’t been yet, check it out its Buakaw.net. Yes .net some dude in Idaho has registered Buakaw.com What I find interesting is that he only just registered it about 5 months ago.
They’ve chosen the obvious things to start off with, and some which I guessed aimed at young Japanese girls. They’ve got a autographed key fob thingy for about $40. The strangest product offered is the pillow thing? Are the girls supposed to cuddle this thing? Damn thing is $50! Does Buakaw use it first or something?
You can get a pair of his shorts… I had this idea a long time ago. The idea was I would pay him to wear and sign shorts… and just send them off to me. You kidding Japanese girls could sniff them to their hearts content. Looks like you can get a pair of his shorts for about $130… can you put a price on nuthugging? Yes apparently you can. I noticed they put Buakaw.com on the shorts, I wonder if their sending some Yakuza over to the Idaho guy to “claim” their domain?
I think the shirt is pretty dope though… I don’t know if it’s $40 without shipping dope but, I’m sure he’ll sell thousands of them.

I agree don’t “faggotize” the Buakaw! He’s all about no frills hardcore Muay Thai. The first time Buakaw came to K-1, I really liked that he was from a gym by the river (Por Pramuk) with no high tech equipment and definitely no homo metro shit around.

I’m just surprised this hasn’t been capitalized on yet. They could make millions if they do it right.

He’s fighting to make money for him (and probably his family), so he chosen the right way. Everyone who’s smart would take the opportunity. Not only he grabbed the opportunity, he god damn deserves it. He’s top of the top, training 8 hours per day, 6 days per week. Btw, he’s not selling some cheap crap or cheating people. No, he is selling what he himself… what he deserves!
