ATT Ricardo Liborio BJJ Black Belt Adam Shahir Kayoom shows a few techinques at Tiger Muay Thai

Adam Kayoom, a long time friend of Tiger Muay Thai and head instructor at the Bangkok Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy has headed to Tiger Muay Thai to finish the last three weeks of his training camp in preparation for a bout against Sengoku veteran fighter Bae Myung Ho of Korea for the Legends FC event in Hong Kong.

Kayoom, a BJJ Black Belt under American Top Team Instructor Ricardo Liborio, is an accomplished Muay Thai fighter who is hoping to successfully crossover into the sport of MMA.

Running Bangkok's most popular academy full-time, Adam decided removing himself from his familiar elements and training routine were the best thing for the final weeks of training camp.

With a win against Bae, Professor Kayoom will earn a title shot against the winner of Justin Murray (Also a TMT alumni) Vs. Kim Hoon on the next Legends fight card.

@billysue2, you need to read what I typed again. I was talking about "learning". Not what you use in MMA or grappling.

[billysue2]

@fcuk4220 not at all,just learn the concepts and a good wrestler would cop on real quick,lots have done it and are up with the best within a year,shane roler,matt weidman,ben askren ,sarah mcmann,etc the list is growing.Yull never get a lifelong wrestler to abandon their very valuable skills of top domination for butt flopping but theyll need a decent defensive guard for mma just in case.

@61third, you "can".... But there in lies the fundamental problem with learning jiujitsu, especially those with a wrestling background. You must learn pure jiujitsu to use it as a base art, to gain full effectiveness.

or you can just incorporate wrestling and force your submission on your opponent;)
