[van559]

ill whoop ass you ass.

[gebgroup]

thai stoled khmer fight style and they name it muiy thai.thats sucks to let them get away wit it.

[SarahSunwalker]

That's not true, you wanker.

Learn your fucking history. You could just as well say the Japanese stole Karate from China... but that's not how it went.

[GGSBY]

Do the chinese have a martial art resembling karate?

[SarahSunwalker]

No.

But Muay Thai was not formed in a few days, either, was it?

Regardless of where any style started, in SE Asia, the borders, lands, traditions, have all changed hands several times. Back and forth, each one has added to it.

Karate originated from China, Kung Fu originated from India. No one stole anything.

If Cambodians made a style, Thais would have fought back in a similar way, exchanging techniques.

No one stole.

Stupid people.

[GGSBY]

Hey, it was merely a question, no need to give me a thumbs down. Did I insult you? I just failed to see your reasoning. Karate originated from china. Okay, so do the chinese have something which resembles karate? This isnt a question of adaptation. Muay thai and pradal serey are almost identical, from the fighting styles to the traditional rituals.

[SarahSunwalker]

Someone gaves me the thumbs down. I thought it was you.

The styles are almost identical because they evolved together, exchanging techniques as they grew.

It does not mean Muay Thai is stolen. That kind of remark is stupid.

[GGSBY]

Yeh and hence the misunderstanding. Thailand does not acknowledge this.

[SarahSunwalker]

That's because Thai people are stupid. You didn't know?

[khmerboi253]

muay thai is thailand's fighting style

bokator is cambodian o-o
