“My partners and I were interested in the cultural aspect of Muay Thai and we are practitioners ourselves, and that was one of our biggest motives. That’s how Clinch came to life. We wanted to represent a brand, and we found, Yokkao, who are of the biggest promoters of Muay Thai in the world. We are the official representatives of Yokkao in Lebanon.

The idea had an emotional drive, we wanted to come up with an initiative, where us as clients would enjoy the service, and CLINCH is exactly that. A client centered martial arts facility, for everyone looking to shape up. The sport we fell in love with, we want to spread its benefits for everyone searching for a multi beneficial sport to enroll in.”

When asked, why was Mohammad Karaki picked to represent the gym, Ralph added:

“When you first encounter fighters, you form a personal rapport, that you relate to yourself and to your brand.

Mohamed Karaki has both charisma and talent, and of course he is a two division champion in Desert Force.

We known him personally, and the combination of all that helped us choose him”
