The promotional model clearly states she never had an intimate relationship and never gave any romantic encouragement, considering Brazil merely as a younger brother.
On 20 February 2026, the Thai boxing scene became widely discussed on social media when a Facebook user named Darin Da Ri Nin posted that a Thai boxer who previously fought in ONE Championship borrowed money from her and never repaid it, leaving her uncertain about his future success.
"A ONE Championship boxer borrowed money from a woman and never paid it back, messaging me with insults every day. It's amusing—let's see if he'll rise or fall."
Subsequently, the Thai boxer involved admitted he was the person in question. This was Brazil Ek Muangnonth, who had recently fought at Lumpinee Stadium in January. He additionally claimed to have had an intimate relationship with the promotional model.
Brazil responded, saying, "The social media buzz is about me. I want to apologize to the Phet Num Noi team, Uncle Ek Muangnonth, and everyone who has supported me for causing this issue."
"I want to explain from my personal perspective that I have known her (Dxxxx) for quite some time."
"Our relationship began around February last year (see image 1). We were close and spent time together until we broke up or stopped communicating. We last met this past Tuesday (see images 2-4)."
"Regarding our chat messages, it's not unusual for people who had an intimate relationship to communicate like that. I admit there may have been some inappropriate messages on my part, and I apologize for that. I regret that the chats were revealed in a negative light."
"Regarding money, this was not borrowing in the usual sense. For example, when we bought snacks at 7-Eleven, she paid, but after we broke up, she requested repayment. I had already transferred the money back before she posted anything."
"In the messages she posted, I said ‘It's just a small amount, others would understand.’ The amount was only 311 baht (see image 5). I believe people who had a good relationship wouldn't have an issue over this small sum. Before she contacted my father to ask for 500 baht (see image 6), an argument arose between us. To end the dispute and the relationship, I transferred the money back. She later edited the messages she had posted (see image 7)."
"I do not blame anyone as I am also at fault. Regardless of any misunderstandings, I hope people understand my side. I sincerely apologize again."
However, the matter did not end there, as the promotional model clarified she was never his girlfriend, never engaged in a romantic relationship, viewed him simply as a younger brother, and never gave any hope. She also stated she paid all the expenses.
“May I clarify,
1. We were never in a relationship nor did we have romantic conversations. He knew well that I considered him a younger brother and never gave him any hope.
Also, Brazil already has a girlfriend (this was just revealed to everyone).
He had planned with his girlfriend to tell the media they broke up long ago to lessen the backlash about infidelity (the accompanying photo is this one).
2. I did travel to Krabi a second time, yes, because I was on vacation.
3. Since we met, I have been the one paying for all living expenses. He never paid for anything — whether meals, drinks, clothes, or shoes he wanted, I covered everything. Regarding money borrowing, yes, that did happen, but I changed phones and lost the old chats. If needed, I can provide bank statements. It's shameful that when with a woman, he never paid for anything. I bought everything he and his friends wanted. For example, the photos he posted at the Ao Nang Krabi bar — I paid for all five of his friends including myself.
4. The 311 baht transfer was only for repaying what I paid for his friends’ food and drinks. For me, I only had drinks and a sandwich. Since meeting this man, he has never paid for anything.”
Brazil Ek Muangnonth posted afterward: “Believe whoever you want. I just want to explain and do not want to argue further. I just want to apologize. Thank you to everyone who understands. #LeftAhWang”
