Timeline

1969

Ramon Dekkers (4 September 1969 – 27 February 2013) was a Dutch professional kickboxer and an eight-time Muay Thai world champion.

Dekkers was a favourite with fight fans due to his fast-paced, aggressive fighting style.

Dekkers was also renowned for his willingness to go abroad to fight the Thai champions in their own country.

Dekkers was born on 4 September 1969 in Breda, Netherlands.

He began learning martial arts at age 12, studying judo for half a year.

He then switched to boxing.

After a couple of years Dekkers started practicing Muay Thai under Cor Hemmers.

After finishing his baker education Dekkers joined Maeng Ho Breda Gym.

During Dekkers' early days of training his mother was at the gym every day and eventually she and Hemmers fell in love and got married.

In the beginning of his career Dekkers' manager was Clovis Depretz, the manager of legendary Rob Kaman.

This was the reason why Kaman was at ringside during many of Dekkers' matches, including his farewell fight.

They often trained together and became good friends.

Dekkers and Kaman were dubbed by fight fans in Thailand as "The Double Dutch duo".

In his first fight at 16 years of age, Dekkers won in a spectacular knockout against a well-established older boxer.

Although, only weighing about 55 kg, his opponents found out sooner rather than later he was much stronger than he looked.

As Dekkers kept on winning his matches by knockout, his reputation of an up-and-coming fighter spread in the Muay Thai community.

1987

He was awarded his first title at age 18, when he won the MTBN Dutch Championship on 15 November 1987.

Dekkers defeated Kenneth Ramkisoen by knockout with a high kick.

Previous to this fight the Dutchman had his first international contest against the reigning European champion, Richard Nam of France.

Dekkers lost the fight on points.

They would rematch each other a year later for the EMTA European Championship.

This time Dekkers won the fight by knockout with a left hook, cross to body combination in the fourth round.

1988

Dekkers challenged for the NKBB European Super featherweight Championship against Kevin Morris on 14 April 1988.

He defeated his overmatched English opponent by unanimous decision.

Over the next year the Dutchman would win a number of fights before defeating Mungkordum Sitchang for the IMTA World Lightweight title.

Towards the end of 1988 he faced Gilbert Ballantine from the respected Chakuriki Gym in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Dekkers lost by decision after being outworked by Ballantine over five rounds.

This match would spark the beginning of a fierce rivalry between the two men—they would fight two more times with both of them splitting wins.

1990

On 18 February 1990, Dekkers truly moved onto the world stage.

In Amsterdam, he faced the reigning Lumpinee champion Namphon Nongkeepahuyuth.

He inflicted a rare defeat on Namphon after five rounds, taking the IMF World Light Welterweight title.

The two fighters would meet again two months later in a rematch in Bangkok, Thailand.

This time the Dutchman, who just had knocked out the number 1 ranked Lumpinee fighter Cherry S. Wanich in Amsterdam, was unable to defeat Namphon and lost a close decision.

He returned to Thailand the same year to meet Issara Sakkreerin in a losing bid for Sakkreerin's Lumpinee Stadium Lightweight title.

The most notable rival of Dekkers was multiple Lumpinee champion and living legend Coban Lookchaomaesaitong.

1991

In their first encounter on 21 April 1991, Dekkers was knocked out with a left hook.

This would be the first of four meetings between the men from 1991 to 1993, in what became one of the biggest rivalries in Muay Thai history.

In the rematch, Dekkers won in highlight worthy fashion via devastating knockout.

In the third outing of their rivalry, Dekkers was defeated by decision after five gruelling rounds, but he won the fourth and final fight, evening his score against Coban.

The Coban vs. Dekkers fights have been rated as the best by any standards, by Muay Thai fans worldwide.
