On Saturday 18 July 2026, Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA hosts one of the most respected minds in world boxing. Malik Scott, the American trainer behind former heavyweight world champion Deontay Wilder, brings his boxing seminar to Phuket for a focused two-hour session built around the fundamentals, fight IQ, and tactical detail that have made him one of the sport’s most sought-after coaches.
This is a rare chance to learn directly from a coach who has operated at the very top of professional boxing, whether you box, train for MMA, or coach fighters yourself.
Who is Malik Scott
Malik Scott is a former amateur national champion, a professional heavyweight top ten world title contender, and today one of the most respected trainers in the sport.
His experience runs through the highest levels of boxing. After an elite 77-3 amateur career and a place as a 2000 Olympic team alternate, he climbed the professional ranks to fight for a world title, finishing his career at 38-3-1. As a fighter he shared camps with Lennox Lewis, the Klitschkos, Oleksandr Usyk, Tyson Fury, and Deontay Wilder, and learned under the sport’s legendary teachers Emmanuel Steward, Harold Knight, and Joe Goossen.
As a coach he has worked with former world champions Deontay Wilder and Zurdo Ramirez, and rising contender Ezra Taylor. He guided Wilder through the third fight of his celebrated trilogy with Tyson Fury, a performance widely regarded as a clear step up on the rematch and proof of what Scott’s tactical work can do at the elite level.
Scott has built his reputation on highly refined fight IQ, elite fundamentals, and tactical vision. From mastering the basics and sharpening technique to building explosive power and learning to control opponents, his meticulous approach to the craft is what sets him apart. He can also be seen calling the biggest fights in the world for DAZN, working as both an analyst and commentator.
Above all, Scott loves developing people. His passion is turning good fighters and trainers into great ones, whether they come from boxing, MMA, or the coaching side of the sport.
What you will learn
The seminar covers the tools Scott has spent a career refining and teaching at the highest level:
- Physical boxing
- Creating your offense with respect
- Defensive responsibility
- Directional work
- Dominating the inside
- The benefits of missing punches
- Lead hand dominance
- Winning fights with the 1-2
- Mastering feints
These are the details that separate good boxers from great ones. Whether you want to sharpen your jab, control range and angles, or understand how high level fighters set traps and create openings, this session puts that knowledge directly in your hands.
Who this is for
The seminar is open to all levels. Boxers looking to refine technique, MMA athletes wanting to add genuine boxing detail to their striking, and coaches who want to learn from one of the best teachers in the game will all take something away. Working across all three of those groups is exactly what Scott does best.
