A 24-year-old Muay Thai fighter has tragically died after being hospitalized following a bout at the AMC 13 – Fight for Hope tournament at Singapore’s National Stadium. Police confirmed no preliminary foul play is suspected, while the Singapore Muaythai Association has launched a formal review into the medical emergency.
The Tragedy at National Stadium and the Timeline of Events
The event, held at 1 Stadium Drive on September 12, served as a charity initiative organized by the Singapore Muaythai Association to support the Breast Cancer Foundation Singapore. According to police statements, a formal report was lodged at approximately 8:00 AM on September 13 after the competitor was conveyed unconscious to the hospital.
Emergency response records show that the Singapore Civil Defence Force received a call for assistance at the National Stadium venue at roughly 7:05 PM on September 12. The fighter, who trained out of Fitness Asia (also noted in reports as Inspire Fitness Asia), was promptly transported to Tan Tock Seng Hospital in critical condition after suffering a head injury during his match.
Addressing Ring Reports and Official Association Responses
However, Singapore Muaythai Association president Mike Tang firmly disputed claims that a knockout had occurred inside the squared circle. In statements provided to regional media, Tang clarified that the referee halted the bout in the third round strictly in the interest of the athlete’s safety.
