Photos of Muay Thai legend Buakaw Banchamek giving a leg massage to “Barbie,” a beautiful European boxer have sparked gossip online as fans agreed the pair would make a perfect couple.
Maybe it’s the way Barbie looks at him. Or maybe because we rarely see tough Buakaw give anyone a massage. Either way, the legend’s Banchamek Gym social media was on fire this weekend when photos of the two boxing champions spending time together were released on Buakaw’s official Facebook.
“Her legs were in pain, so Buakaw gave her a massage,” the caption said.
“Your baby will be fine and will definitely be a Muay Thai God,” user Narut Kodchompu commented.
Not just a pretty face, Ekaterina “Barbie” Vandaryeva, a 24-year-old Thai boxer from Belarus, was a 2010 champion of the International Federation of Muay Thai Amateur World Championships.
Barbie is preparing at Buakaw’s gym for her next fight at Super Muay Thai on Sunday.
Barbie will go up against Laurene de Oliveira, former WWBA champion. The match will be broadcast on Workpoint channel at 8pm.
