Farid Villaume (born February 10, 1975), is a French Muay Thai kickboxer, having won world titles in different boxes fists feet. [1]
Farid Villaume is a boxer who has adapted remarkably well to the style Muaythai which is not the case for many European nakmuay who often have a style of boxing for the fists. His boxing is fine and precise, it is well known for placing his shots rather than being a puncher. It can be considered as one of the best French stylists, an example in terms of technics. He is particularly fond of boxing with elbows.
He is the most talented Muaythai fighter the country has produced since the legendary Dany Bill.
Farid had the privilege to train as a child with Thai instructors such as Lom Isarn, Lamkong or Soudareth. This is probably why Villaume is one of the few foreigners to fight exactly like a Thai.
Villaume stands at 1m80 for 72 kg. Father of Corsican and Moroccan mother, he has been training Muaythai since the age of 16. [2]
It counts more than 50 fights, 10 defeats and 2 draws. Farid Villaume fought in Muaythai and Kickboxing.
