Our friends at Total Muay Thai are reporting that 45 year old heavyweight boxing legend Riddick Bowe is set to make his Muay Thai debut in Thailand this May. According to Total Muay Thai, Bowe signed a contract with Thai Promotions Kokiet and Golden Glove.
Bowe has not fought in boxing since 2008 and will be training for his upcoming debut in Las Vegas, NV with Kru Airr Phanthip and Kru Chan. A press conference is expected to be held on March 30th, 2013 at the Palms Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

This wouldn't be the first time rumors about a boxer making his Muay Thai debut surface. Last year rumors of a bout between Manny Pacquiao and Buakaw ran rampant, but in the end nothing happened. Only time will tell us if Bowe is really attempting to fight Muay Thai.
