Leigh Thompson was our MC for The Arena at Lake Lugano in 2026, our Italian Muay Thai promotion broadcast on DAZN.
Professional, affable and a pleasure to work with, Leigh had a commanding presence and knew how to engage the crowd. His energy and enthusiasm added so much to the atmosphere of the show.
We're already planning to welcome him back in 2027 and can't wait to work with him again. Highly recommended.
