Is there any historical written evidence that support what Master Sam Kim Seng said about Bokator ?

[brooklynmonk1]

@zin2zin There are no historical or written records of Bokator.

@samuraipsycho According to your activity history on youtube, you spent the better part of Saturday writing negative comments on Bokator videos, in favor of muay Thai. But you don't have any Muay Thai videos on your channel. If you love Muay Thai, why aren't you training and fighting? If you want to promote Muay Thai, why don't you publish videos about Muay Thai? Apparently, you don't love Muay Thai even to practice it, research its history, or promote it on the web.

We just want to enjoy Bokator. Stop the history and politics drama on the comments section. Nobody cares, ok? Leave us to enjoy this martial arts.

@DangersMines U r talking with no sense. Just like What English people or American people stole from Roman and Greek? No, u got confused. U r showing ur stupid brain again. Ur grand palace in cambodia designed by Thai architectures. Even the National Library. What should u be proud of? Now tell me the ugly concrete buildings in ur country are the innovation of Greek-Roman or not? Damn, U r stealing those people. they were more than 2000 yrs , older than ur history.

Thailand was Khmer Empire land for more 1000 years before Thai invading. Khmer built their great culture in SEA and called it Great Khmer Civilization. Thai just came and stole it from Khmer. No matter Thai changed their ID they still got caught stealing Khmer culture and got caught stealing Khmer temples on landmines.

Both these guys commenting are idiots.

Khmers are master in Music, Art of fighting, Sak Yernt, Apsara dancing, rock builder, art carving, relationship with Gods, water irregation, many styles of architecture, from wood, rock, brick, sand stone. Styles of present daly dacing: Romvong, Rom Kbach, Saravan, Kantreum, Temples styles everywhere in the Country. It was older than Thai grand palace. What you talking about Mr DangerMines.

[Chetah01]

@DangersMines After that Cambodia were invaded by Thai and definitely got all influences by Thai ppl for more than 800 yrs after. Counting from the time u were a thai slave and kept sending tax to thai until france came and took it away.Believe me the style of Temple and ur Grand palace were built after Thai. Ur Temple style as i see from Ankor wat is totally different from now.Cuz thai influenced ur style of temple.even more obvious nowaday.Ur ppl r stealing Thai music by not adapting anything.

[brooklynmonk1]

@DangersMines So, you don't have a video clip of Khmer boxing which is older than the 1920's clip of Muay Thai. why can't you just use logic and reason and reality for your arguments? also agkor wat doesnt have videos, and angkor wat was built between 10th and 13th centuries, not first.

@Chetah01

That's how you thief talking. Who created the word Pyramid? Every nation has its own word for Pyramid, Khmer have Pyramid temples but we don't call Pyramid temples, we call Prasat Phnom and we don't copy Egypt because our Pyramid is different from Egypt. Cambodia is a country named after an Indian Prince Kambu, only Thai thieves see Indian stealing Indian. The world tall building today, who copied who? Thai thieves always got caught stealing Khmer temples on landmines.

@Chetah01

You thief asshole said European ppl borrowed Roman alphabets, do Thai ever say borrow numbers from Khmer? First starting to check who ruled the land of Thailand and created a great civilization before Thai ever born. Many books are written by the world scholars calling Khmer Empire and go reading the age of your thief country. You keep changing your ID because you are thief stealing Khmer culture and stealing Khmer temples and got caught stealing on landmines.
