Valeri Gusarov — NAIZA Bantamweight Champion
NAIZA FC · Bantamweight Champion

Valeri
Gusarov

Weight Class 61 kg
Title Champion

Valeri Gasurov is the current NAIZA Bantamweight Champion (61kg), known for his dominant wrestling and high-level Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Inside the cage, he controls the fight — powerful takedowns, relentless pressure, and precise ground control. Once the fight hits the mat, he takes over. At Lions MMA, Valeri represents discipline, consistency, and dominance. A true grappler, a proven champion, and a constant threat in his division.

Dzhabir Dzhabrailov — ONE Championship
ONE Championship · Welterweight

Dzhabir
Dzhabrailov

Record 7–0
Finishes 7 / 7

At 21 years old, Dzhabir Dzhabrailov is one of the most exciting undefeated prospects in ONE Championship — and he trains right here at Lions MMA Club in Phuket. Born in Chechnya, raised in Moscow, Dzhabir started wrestling at 8 and never stopped. In ONE Championship, he has yet to see a second round. Every opponent, finished. Every fight, stopped inside the first. He headlined ONE Fight Night 42 — his first main event — and delivered exactly what the room expected: another first-round finish. He is calm, focused, and utterly dangerous. Watch this space.

Lions is Family! First I must say this is not just a Muay Thai Gym. I got there as a total beginner, no experience at all, and the moment you walk in you get treated as family. The whole team is down to earth but at the same time very professional and skilled — we're talking about guys who are fighting in the UFC. I checked out all the gyms in the area and Lions has the most BJJ classes. Highly recommend.
Korbinian H. · March 2024
Lions Muay Thai is a powerhouse. The trainers are elite, the energy is unreal, and every session leaves you stronger mind and body. Whether you're a fighter or a beginner, this gym brings out your best. Train hard, grow fast, and feel like family.
Dr. A. · June 2025
Dropped in as a beginner for a Muay Thai class. Absolutely recommend it. Excellent coaches. Clean and modern club. Great facility. There was about 10 of us in the class, different levels and about 6 coaches — it was 1 to 1 when skills training. Great fitness workout but also great learning this art.
ABC L. · May 2025
My experience with Muay Thai classes in Thailand was amazing. The gym was fantastic, with dedicated instructors and a welcoming atmosphere. I learned a lot about the sport and Thai culture, and I'm incredibly grateful for this unique opportunity. I can't wait to return someday and continue my Muay Thai journey.
