Kick boxing was started in Burma thousand of years. Every boy has to learn Let-Wei when he reached age of 12 years old. It's basic military training that time. They will conscript when the king wants then to fight enemy or to invade neighbor country. Burmese king invaded Thai and the Burmese military officers train Thai Soldiers from the Thai King who become loyal to Burmese King. In the old days, Burmese boxers have to fight until one can not continue to fight and no limit of rounds.
this is an amazing video, hollywood movie could not come up with something better. everything is absolutely perfect, the fighters, the ring, the dark seating area. absolutely pure fighting nothing more!
Yup, but since Muay Thai is original and it goes around the world. They cant allow people to fight like this anymore. That's why Muay Thai fighters wear gloves, however, some Muay Thai fighters in Thailand still fight like this because it's their traditional ways back in the days :)
Ima have to disagree with you . It started as the Cambodian tradition with bokar the Cambodian empire once ruled most of south east Asia before king jiyvarraman era with this martial art.
Siam in era were living in The Khmer empire. The Khmer king gave some land to the Siamese and later learned bokator and used it against the empire. They gained more land ever since and the fued between Khmer and Siam continue till this day. So I disagree that it's not the siamS tradition it's more like Khmer tradition
Yea blue was never the same after the knee that read did. Red was off on his game in the beginning. Blue at the end threw his lead straight punch from too far out which is why he got countered. That's a no no under Leth wei principle.
Right hook I mean my bad.

Thats complete bull shit. They are more aggressive because it ends the fight quicker.
Type in Wan Chai vs Mg Mg Gyi or Wan Chai lethwei fight #1. Or type in and search any of the Tway McShawn fights.

trust me, lethwei fighters are far from cautious. A ko only wins the fight so they go all out and throw everything with maximum power
