The Muaythai Festival at COB EXPO, Latin America’s largest Olympic sport fair, was a spectacular success! 300 children from the Gloves of Hope Project experienced the heart of Thai culture and the spirit of Muaythai, while learning Olympic values like respect, discipline, perseverance, and sportsmanship.
A special moment came with HE Mrs. Kundhinee Aksornwong, Royal Ambassador of Thailand, who personally handed out Gloves of Hope medals—celebrating the values that truly matter.
Founded 15 years ago by Master Carlos Camacho, the Gloves of Hope Project uses Muaythai to promote education, health, and personal growth, proving that sport can shape lives far beyond the ring.
Thanks to the partnership between CBMTT-IFMA Brazil and FESPMTT, and the incredible support from EA Events, COB, and Olympic champion Emanuel Rego, this festival became a vibrant celebration of youth, culture, and Olympic values.
United by Olympic values. We are Muaythai. Inspiring the next generation!
