Biography
Dani is a Swiss-Dominican Muay Thai fighter born and raised in Zurich, Switzerland. His current record as of July 2023, is 40-0 (18 KO). He is the current reigning Rajadamnern Stadium Light Middleweight champion.
On September 2022, he defeated top Thai fighter Yodwicha during the Rajadamnern World Series (RWS) and is widely regarded as the best 'farang' fighter in Thailand. He is currently ranked as the #1 Muay Thai fighter in the world at 154 lbs by both the World Muaythai Organisation and the WBC Muay Thai.
During his childhood he played football and basketball with his friends for fun. But it was not until his school friend had convinced him to try out a Muay Thai class when they were 14-15 years old, that he found his true calling in life.
By 15 years old, he already had his first Muay Thai fight, training out of Dado Gym. But it was not until he was 20 years old (2019), when he had his first stint of training in Thailand. In Bangkok, he fought out of Sid Chef Boontam Gym and also trained at Petchyindee camp.
Dani now fights out of Sinbi Muay Thai in Phuket, Thailand and has aspirations to fight for a belt in Lumpinee and ONE Championship.
