Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA: Phuket, Thailand
Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA is proud to announce that Nico “King of the North” Carrillo, the newly crowned ONE Interim Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion, will be hosting a high-level seminar at its Phuket facility on March 28, 2026, alongside his coach JP Gallacher. This seminar represents a rare opportunity for practitioners to train directly with one of the most explosive striking talents in global Muay Thai today.
Carrillo, a 27-year-old Scottish knockout specialist, recently captured the ONE Interim Featherweight Muay Thai World Title at ONE Fight Night 40 in Bangkok, Thailand. In a hard-fought battle against Thai standout Shadow Singha Mawynn, Carrillo rallied to secure a unanimous decision victory, adding a world title to his distinguished record and reinforcing his status as one of the premier featherweight strikers in the sport.
What to Expect at the Seminar
The seminar will take place on Saturday, March 28, 2026, at Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA and is designed for fighters and enthusiasts at all levels. Attendees will receive instruction in core skills including counter-attacks, defensive positioning, and live sparring drills. A Q&A segment will allow participants to gain insight into Carrillo’s elite preparation methods and competitive mindset.
Carrillo’s ascent in ONE Championship has been marked by a potent combination of technical proficiency, punching power, and competitive resilience. Before his recent title success, he built his reputation with standout performances and multiple finishes, including knockouts of established names inside ONE’s global platforms.

Joining Carrillo will be JP Gallacher, his long-time coach and strategist. Together, they will share their advanced approach to fight preparation and performance fundamentals, offering a unique perspective rooted in world-class competition experience.
“We’re honoured to host Nico and JP at Bangtao,” said Will Elliott, Managing Director at Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA. “This seminar is not just about technique, it’s about understanding the mindset and discipline required to compete at the highest levels of Muay Thai.”
