Naruepol Fairtex (Thai: นฤพนธ์ แฟร์เท็กซ์; born July 1, 1984) is a Thai welterweight kickboxer fighting out of Evolve MMA in Singapore. He is a former Lumpinee Stadium champion and current No.1 contender to challenge Nopadetch Chuwattana for the WBC title.

In 2007 Naruepol was featured on the reality show The Contender Asia, where he was stopped in Episode 9 by Yodsaenklai Fairtex.

Naruepol was born near Bangkok in Central Thailand. He started practicing Muaythai when he was 7 years old at the Sakomsing Gym and had his first fight a year later. Naruepol joined Fairtex Gym in 2005.

In 1999, Naruepol won the Lumpinee belt from Chokdee Por.Pramuk.

He was scheduled to face Andy Souwer at Fighterzone Kickboxing World Series MAX in Singapore on February 25, 2012. However, they were not paid by the promoter and the fight did not happen.

In 2015, Naruepol Fairtex (aka "Mr. GQ" ) moved to the United States to teach, train, and groom Muay Thai fighters in Northern California. He is currently affiliated with KOA Fitness in Newark, CA as the head instructor of the Muay Thai program.
