Daniel McGowan (Muay Thai)

McGowan started Muay Thai training at 11 years old after trying Tae Kwon Do and Kickboxing. He was one of the youngest non thai to fight at the Rajadamnern Stadium at 15 years old promoted by Petchyindee, he spends time at their academy regularly since that fight.[1]

On January 10, 2016, at SNKA WINNERS 2016 McGowan faced Shiro for the ISKA World Muay Thai Bantamweight title.[2] He lost the fight by a unanimous decision.[3]

On August 26, 2017, McGowan faced Ryan Sheehan for the vacant ICO World 55 kg title. After a very back and forth fight McGowan was declared the winner by unanimous decision.[4]

McGowan became a force to be reckoned with when he knocked out multiple weights stadium champion Rungnarai Kiatmuu9 at YOKKAO in October 2017.[5] This win opened him for big fights in Thailand where two months later he beat Thanadej Thor.Pran49 but injured his hand in the process.

Mcgowan made his comeback in September 2018, he knocked out Saengmorakot Sakphinyo with an elbow on the televised portion of an event at Rajadamnern Stadium. Two months later he beat Ratanaphon Nor.Anuwatgym but injured his hand again and had multiple surgeries which took him out of competition for multiple years.

Mcgowan made his return to competition after 3 years of hiatus on March 26, 2022, at Combat Fight Series 7. He faced Mario Alvarez for the ISKA Muay Thai Intercontinental 67 kg title. He lost the fight by knockout in the third round.[6]
