Gustavo Navarrete - Striking coach

Hello, I am Coach Gustavo. I’m from Ecuador. I have lived in the US since 2004. I discovered Muay Thai at 16  years old at a small gym called Revolution Self Defense (North Carolina). I fell in love with Muay Thai and even had my first fight in 2010. In 2017 I turned pro in Thailand. I was sponsored by Sumalee Boxing Gym in Phuket during that time as well. Living & training in Thailand made an amazing fighter but I could not see a future fighting only Muay Thai. I decided to then pursue MMA. I moved to AZ shortly after signing with SKILLSET Management under the guidance of Javier Torres. I’m very happy here at UKF Gym, and eager to showcase my skills & teach the art of Muay Thai!
