practically the same thing with different rules but pradal serey fighters compete in muay thai tournaments in the asian games muay thai doesn't have any grappling though
i sorta think that muay thai is a little bit more effective with the kicking cuz you snap back faster instead of goiing straight through in muay thai and the grappling doesnt seem to be effective unless you know ju jitsu or some wrestling after
@AL3T0 read up boy before u type! although, the style are similar Padel Sarey is not Muy Thai and 4 reference visit Angkor temple... little shit head bitch!
@countryboyloko Oh come on shut the fuck up you little smart ass. I said it looks like muay thai. I didnt say anything about the history. I guess you are the one who should think. Saying shit that ain't true.
@adn1337 Lol , whoa there big guy . Muay Thai was this , before Vietnam, Loas and Thai , it was the Khmer Empire . This is where your "muay thai" originated. All the Bokator masters were murdered during the war against Khmer Rouge.
Not all Bokator masters were murdered, there are still a few living and today they write book, open school teaching Khmer children and promote Bokator around the world. Just last week Bokator wons a second place among 35 countries in Korea while Muay Thai won nothing.
@KhmerWarrior7 nono , i am saying that Bokator is not a knockoff of Muay Thai, if anything Muay Thai is a knockoff of Bokator. I know that there are some alive left there is a training camp at a temple in seim reap i believe.
Not only in Siem Reap, Bokator lives around the world. The movie of Bokator will come out soon and Cambodia is preparing Bokator to list as the world heritage as well.
@KhmerWarrior7 I don't know how big it can get, We are losing generations as years pass by. Remember a master will never teach his student all of his skill.
roughest part of training, at the camp i went to outside phnom penh, was actually getting food poisoning twice. i love thai food.....laos food....but camping with khmers and eating the local food..man, more lethal than the roundhouse! be warned haha.
@wmd44110 they are. my muay thai gmy on my lane here, is home to jitti from buriram, he's a gentle soft spoken guy and a height of 5'5'!! but fast and tough as nails!
It was mentioned in our Muay Thai class that part of Muay Boran originated from Cambodia carried over to Thailand. Muay Boran as we all know it is the root of Muay Thai. Only it's a lot bloodier and a bit more centered on the "eight limbs". If you know Muay Thai then all of it gets carried over in this.
MY BROTHER LIKES 2 PICK ON ME ALOT HE LITERALLY JUS CHOCKED ME TILL I BLACKED OUT HE COULVE KILLED ME THA ONLY REASON HE STOP IS BECUZ HE ACCIDENTALLY LOSS HES GRIP IM 16 HES 18 HES MUCH STRONGER AN IM MUCH TALLER HE HAS ANGER PROBLEMS AN IM PRETTY MUCH USELESS AGAINST HIS STRENGHT I WAS JUST WONDERING WHATS THE BEST MARTIAL ARTS 2 USE TO DISMANTLE SUM 1 WITH OUT EVEN TRYING.... AN DEFEND MYSELF AGAINST OTHER BULLIES HE LIKES 2 CALL ME NAMES BUT WHEN I CALL HIM BAC A NAME HE PHYSICALLY HURTS ME.
Don't ignore my video response above. Thai always took Khmer creation and claimed as Thai. Thai Muay Boran has Khmer magic spelling that Thai today can't understand but Khmer can.
The US never lied like Thailand. The US always give credit to the Judo creator but Thailand never give credit to Khmer Pradal Serei and that's why you got false claim from Muay Thai here.
kun Khmer vs muay thai, kun khmer wins almost all of the time, search it up on youtube and you'll see a dirty ass siamese get his ass knocked the fuck out
@TheRuckanucka man shut the fuck up, if your not a thai national doing muay thai or a khmer doing pradal serey, fucking foerign trash trying to copy our shit. IF YOU WERENT SO RETARTED YOU WOULD KNOW THAT PRADAL SEREY WAS THE CAME FIRST AND MUAY THAI IS JUST FAILED JOCK OF PRADAL SEREY DUMBASS
Yea. Muay thai was just one of the Martial Art form orginiated from Khmer. Wikipedia it up, KHMER EMPIRE. most westerners are not firmiliar with the history but Khmer and Thai knows the truth behind it.
@sonohkong To me Muay Thai and Pradal Serey do not have the same moves. The moves are done differently with different results. Pradal Serey's round kick is not the same as Muay Thai's round kick. Some of Pradal Serey's techniques and Muay thai techniques may be the same but the way they are done is completely different
@FlashmanJW it not done differently, it depend on the teacher. and it is the same moves because thai stole it from khmer. if u gonna say its different then tell me one.
@sonohkong From a spectator's view PS is similar to MT however PS uses more elbows and knees and is faster than MT reminiscent to Muay Boran. Moves are different PS's Roundkick and MT's Tae Tud are done differently. I noticed that PS's kick is almost similar to MT's kick but it has sort of a TKD approach when delivered since it's snapped. PS's kick delivered 550 lbs and MT's delivers 1000 lbs, I could be wrong about the technique it just looks like they snap it.
@FlashmanJW the use of elbow is depens on the fighter not the art it self. and the round house is also depens on the fighter. the way the moves is being use is depens on the teacher. where do u think muay boran comes from? u know waht bokator is right?
@sonohkong Yeah Bokator is the predecessor of Pradal Serey, right? Actually the usage of elbows and knees do depend somewhat on the art, Pradal Serey uses elbows and knees in combinations which Muay Thai doesn't rarely do that. And I wasn't talking about how the moves were being used I was talking about how they were done.
@sonohkong The roundkick in Pradal serey snaps its kick somewhat like in Karate or Taekwon Do before delivering while in Muay Thai there is no snap. Plus I think the main differences between these 2 styles are
1. Muay Thai is Thai, Pradal Serey is Cambodian
2. Muay Thai is international
3. Pradal Serey/Bokator is a system
I'm trying not to get into a debate, since you probably know more about this.
@FlashmanJW im not saying that muay thai is not thai, im just saying its originated from khmer. both of the kicks snap before hiting the target. its twist your hip, knee up then u kick. i dont know what to say, it either u belive it or not. i can't just tell u what to belive, if u think different so be it. it does'nt matter.
@siamtiger99 cambodia was better than thai in the 19 century, so waht u talking about? we are sucks right now casue there was a genicide in khmer 30 years ago. u thai people made to today casue khmer let you stay in our land when the mongo people was kicking yo ass.
They are traveling around the world, they have tryed almost everything in martial arts and they still dont know how to kick... omg thats pathetic. Jason is PRO/ P-R-O mma fighter and his "kick" sucks . I wont talk about Bills kick, because that would be the same like order dance to a person without legs...
I'm Cambodian and i don't know how to speak much of it(im born in the us)but i do want to go back to learn this fighting style (and maybe for the 14 year old prostitutes)
Today, both the Pradal Serey and Muay Thai are still very similar with only minor differences in certain technics that are developed separately later on.
The oldest kickboxing in Southeast Asia is the Pradal Serey. The Pradal Serey, itself, orignates from the Ancient Khmer Martial Art called Bokator.
Regarding the relationship between Pradal Serey and Muay Thai, they are essential the same. During the past, the Thais adopted Pradal Serey and gave it a different name to call it their own. So basically, Muay Thai is a derivative of Pradal Serey, although the Thais will never admit it because that would a loss of face as both are still in conflict
thai ppl are a bunch of faggots all they do is copy other countries and claim it to be their own fuck thai ppl thats why human weapon came to srok khmai and not thailand man thailand is rated number 1 country for fag bags lol
All southeast-asian martial arts base off of the same ancient style of which is Muay Boran. Muay Thai and Pradal Serey along with Tomoi, Muay Lao all originated from Muay Boran which originated with the Thais.
So there is little difference on the competitive art of each country, other than that it is much more developed in Thailand because of the money involved and thereby the level of the fighters.
That's why all the people here saying that Pradal Serey-fighters would kick any Muay Thai fighter's ass shows that they have no idea what they're talking about, because the "style" is essentially the same whereas it is much more developed in Thailand simply because of the level of competition has been built up way more and is therefore much higher than it is in Cambodia.
@IngarMaximus i think u wrong. this martial arts came from Khmer empires and from modern Thai or past siem., we Khmer had this martial arts before Siem( today Thailand) came from south of current china to live and create their empire. sorry for my bad english....
@IngarMaximus i dont think so. bokator goes back since 600 a.d. thailand became a country after 1500 a.b. muay means one, boran means ancient or old. the terms came from bali or ancient hindu scripts but was originated by khmers since the 7th a.d.
the history is that bokator is the name of the martial art and muay thai is like a simpler way of kickboxing , and for ya dumb as thai guys that dont know shit everything was all originated from Cambodia so go search into it an know your dam history. Even Tony Jaa the muay thai martial art guy is part Cambodian, if you ever have a chance to even talk to that guy he'll tell you.
@chantrakree who cares, people are fighting all over the world, even now. There will always be new stuff, and knowing that someone was the first to come up with something over 500 yeras ago just doesnt have any value
fuck you motherfucker fat ass///this is the muay thai tehy copy it thats all..thailand have 100 champion fighter cambodia has nothing some shit like you
It's a variation of muay-thai, In 9th cantury Thailand was conquered by thee Khmer people.Pradal Serey is just the name that muay-thai is famous with ,in Cambodia.
@Nerkimusaka dude, Thailand wasnt even around in the 9th century...the Thai's were still tribes living in southern china till they migrated to modern day thailand in the 1300s when the mongols invaded. The thai conquered the Khmer/Mon's land not the other way around...And its accepted fact by historians the thais borrowed the culture and kickboxing thats native to all mainland south east asians countrys. Burma and Cambodia have the oldest styles thats documented in stone and writing lol
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i fucking hate this 2 idiots, and this show is crap, in every episode they want to show that 2 american faggots can fight in any martial art and beat any fighter
well this show is american dumbass if it was from russia those guys would be russians of course theres so fucking hate against americans and we have to take it
@crackerHero It is not so much differences. You should know that MaiThai and Brodal Serey came from the same origin, but Brodal Serey is the real deal. For example, if you put MaiThai fighter and Brodal Serey fighter in the same ring, Brodal Serey will beat the crap out of maiThai. That's all I can explain you man.
...i refused to train ,the level is very low there and at the time i trained and fought already in Thailand , the train was cost 2500 bath a month and was excellent, why i should pay 50 us 4 a shitty training in a country that was 5 times cheapper than Thailand ? well..here they found those to pussies that will provide to leave a good amount of us dollars for film this commercial program 4 idiot !
hey khemer spirit who promote muaythai ? the american? i went to Pnom Phen long time before those guys..around 10 years ago..the "ajarn" asked me 50 us dollars for train me 1 month...
Tai was changed to Siam and Siam was changed to Thailand like European England. Have you ever heard Muay Tai or Muay Siam before? The Thai King is American and the Thai PM is British using Khmer alphabets, Khmer vowels and Khmer numerals to write on all Thai national today so where do you think Muay Thai is coming from?
I do not argue where muay thai come from...muay thai is not promote from americans..not here in Thailand ! The level of muay thai in Cambogia is very low ...like the way of driving car or motorbike in Pnom Phen !
Many words in Thai are borrowed from Pali, Sanskrit and Old Khmer. It is a tonal and analytic language. The Tai-Kadai languages are thought to have originated in what is now southern China....where do you live ? Khemer was a great culture...Cambodian suffer a lot in the past and still suffering now....i loved the people once i was there,simply,poor but always smiling...
Poor is not only in Cambodia, poor is in Thailand as well, but poor in Cambodia doesn't steal anyone creation like poor in Thailand and claimed belonging to Thai.
Cambodia doesn't have bomb blast in south like Thailand and just yesterday, the bombs blast in Bangkok killing a few Thai.
It seems to me that the state of muay thai and pradal serey are very different. In cambodia the training camps are run by tv networks so they're only willing to train fighters that will fight for their shows. It's just another commodity. In thailand however, they embrace the sport as part of their culture and so there's plenty of camps that train for the love of the art. I hope support and interest for pradal serey will grow so the art can flourish.
Thailand was Khmer land and Khmer still live in Thailand today, they love their Khmer arts and Khmer culture, but they were forced to become Thai.
In Cambodia, Khmer arts and Khmer culture are sacred and Khmer don't go showing their Khmer arts and Khmer culture on the streets like Thailand, they must be trained and recognized by school and master before go showing on TV.
What about traditional festivals? Anyways, kickboxing and religious tattoo's are practiced by both khmers and thais. Whether or not these originated in srok khmai, the thais are notorious for them. They're doing it right man. We need to provide more incentives for khmers to pick up those gloves. Churning out better fighters will win more respect than trying to convince them this is ours... i'm not saying we shouldn't though.
Khmer and Thai practice kickboxing and tattoos, but Thai must not wearing Khmer Yantra written in Khmer sacred letter and claimed belonging to Thai and that is exactly the point that Khmer always having an argument with Thai about Khmer Pradal Serei and Muay Thai.
Khmer tradition must offer such as Baisei or at least flowers, banana fruits and incense sticks to Khmer spirit, Khmer ancestors, Khmer masters asking permission before celebrate any festival.
Before Tombs Raider movie shot at Angkor, the produce must offer Basei to Khmer spirit at Angkor asking permission to shoot the movie.
The Thai King is American and the Thai PM is British and they both run Thailand, they dont even know who Ramkamhaing, the father of Thai nation today.
Muay Thai is living on the street in Thailand and Khmer from Cambodia can tell because it's written on Khmer Yantra wearing by the Muay Thai fighter.
Nat Geo just makes another episode of Khmer Bokator that carved on the stone wall of Khmer temples and I'm sure there are a lot more from the French GEO as well.
Khmer are from Southeast Asia and Thai are from China. Khmer already created Khmer arts in Southeast Asia when Thai still lived in China. Tai was the origin race of Siam and Thai from China where the Thai tonal speaking language coming from China.
No one heard about Muay Siam before, only when Khmer was busy at war that American installed its army in Thailand so American promoted Muay Thai which is stolen from Khmer Pradal Serei.
The art of boxing is indigenious to the whole of S.E Asia, has no connection with India!!! It might be practised in Buddhist monastories now, but was part of S.E Asia culture before Budhism!!! Just like in China the martial dance of the Monkey is recorded in 2000 B.C which predates Budhism, it has a loosely taoist origin. Earlier virgins of the wusu form can be fopund high on cliffs in caves through out China!!! Historical facts!!!
Relax, I am just putting out a theory. There is an Indian MA that looks surprisingly like Muay Thai and this is a common theory( Indian grandfather style) Other theorys state that is may have come from China or it may be INDIGINOUS. No one knows for sure! If you have fact pointing to SEA Kick boxing predating Buddhism (5th cent BC), PLEASE let me see it or direct me to it. I would love to see this!!!!!! This would push the creation back a few hundred years from what I suspect.

Regarding the relationship between Pradal Serey and Muay Thai, they are essential the same. During the past, the Thais adopted Pradal Serey and gave it a different name to call it their own. So basically, Muay Thai is a derivative of Pradal Serey, although the Thais will never admit it because that would a loss of face as both are still in conflict

All southeast-asian martial arts base off of the same ancient style of which is Muay Boran. Muay Thai and Pradal Serey along with Tomoi, Muay Lao all originated from Muay Boran which originated with the Thais.
So there is little difference on the competitive art of each country, other than that it is much more developed in Thailand because of the money involved and thereby the level of the fighters.
IngarMaximus 1 year ago
That's why all the people here saying that Pradal Serey-fighters would kick any Muay Thai fighter's ass shows that they have no idea what they're talking about, because the "style" is essentially the same whereas it is much more developed in Thailand simply because of the level of competition has been built up way more and is therefore much higher than it is in Cambodia.

@IngarMaximus i think u wrong. this martial arts came from Khmer empires and from modern Thai or past siem., we Khmer had this martial arts before Siem( today Thailand) came from south of current china to live and create their empire. sorry for my bad english....
heng1981tang 1 year ago
@IngarMaximus i dont think so. bokator goes back since 600 a.d. thailand became a country after 1500 a.b. muay means one, boran means ancient or old. the terms came from bali or ancient hindu scripts but was originated by khmers since the 7th a.d.

the history is that bokator is the name of the martial art and muay thai is like a simpler way of kickboxing , and for ya dumb as thai guys that dont know shit everything was all originated from Cambodia so go search into it an know your dam history. Even Tony Jaa the muay thai martial art guy is part Cambodian, if you ever have a chance to even talk to that guy he'll tell you.

@Nerkimusaka dude, Thailand wasnt even around in the 9th century...the Thai's were still tribes living in southern china till they migrated to modern day thailand in the 1300s when the mongols invaded. The thai conquered the Khmer/Mon's land not the other way around...And its accepted fact by historians the thais borrowed the culture and kickboxing thats native to all mainland south east asians countrys. Burma and Cambodia have the oldest styles thats documented in stone and writing lol

@crackerHero It is not so much differences. You should know that MaiThai and Brodal Serey came from the same origin, but Brodal Serey is the real deal. For example, if you put MaiThai fighter and Brodal Serey fighter in the same ring, Brodal Serey will beat the crap out of maiThai. That's all I can explain you man.

Tai was changed to Siam and Siam was changed to Thailand like European England. Have you ever heard Muay Tai or Muay Siam before? The Thai King is American and the Thai PM is British using Khmer alphabets, Khmer vowels and Khmer numerals to write on all Thai national today so where do you think Muay Thai is coming from?

I do not argue where muay thai come from...muay thai is not promote from americans..not here in Thailand ! The level of muay thai in Cambogia is very low ...like the way of driving car or motorbike in Pnom Phen !

Many words in Thai are borrowed from Pali, Sanskrit and Old Khmer. It is a tonal and analytic language. The Tai-Kadai languages are thought to have originated in what is now southern China....where do you live ?

It seems to me that the state of muay thai and pradal serey are very different. In cambodia the training camps are run by tv networks so they're only willing to train fighters that will fight for their shows. It's just another commodity. In thailand however, they embrace the sport as part of their culture and so there's plenty of camps that train for the love of the art. I hope support and interest for pradal serey will grow so the art can flourish.

Thailand was Khmer land and Khmer still live in Thailand today, they love their Khmer arts and Khmer culture, but they were forced to become Thai.
In Cambodia, Khmer arts and Khmer culture are sacred and Khmer don't go showing their Khmer arts and Khmer culture on the streets like Thailand, they must be trained and recognized by school and master before go showing on TV.

What about traditional festivals? Anyways, kickboxing and religious tattoo's are practiced by both khmers and thais. Whether or not these originated in srok khmai, the thais are notorious for them. They're doing it right man. We need to provide more incentives for khmers to pick up those gloves. Churning out better fighters will win more respect than trying to convince them this is ours... i'm not saying we shouldn't though.

Khmer tradition must offer such as Baisei or at least flowers, banana fruits and incense sticks to Khmer spirit, Khmer ancestors, Khmer masters asking permission before celebrate any festival.

Khmer are from Southeast Asia and Thai are from China. Khmer already created Khmer arts in Southeast Asia when Thai still lived in China. Tai was the origin race of Siam and Thai from China where the Thai tonal speaking language coming from China.
No one heard about Muay Siam before, only when Khmer was busy at war that American installed its army in Thailand so American promoted Muay Thai which is stolen from Khmer Pradal Serei.

The art of boxing is indigenious to the whole of S.E Asia, has no connection with India!!! It might be practised in Buddhist monastories now, but was part of S.E Asia culture before Budhism!!! Just like in China the martial dance of the Monkey is recorded in 2000 B.C which predates Budhism, it has a loosely taoist origin. Earlier virgins of the wusu form can be fopund high on cliffs in caves through out China!!! Historical facts!!!

Relax, I am just putting out a theory. There is an Indian MA that looks surprisingly like Muay Thai and this is a common theory( Indian grandfather style) Other theorys state that is may have come from China or it may be INDIGINOUS. No one knows for sure! If you have fact pointing to SEA Kick boxing predating Buddhism (5th cent BC), PLEASE let me see it or direct me to it. I would love to see this!!!!!! This would push the creation back a few hundred years from what I suspect.
