tangcoral Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Not sure if there are rules against posting link but I just came across this video from LiveLeak. The fight is hilariously but for those expert on the sport chime in as I am seriously curious. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7f7_1359713152 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve down under Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I had to laugh at the way the referee kept getting floored and getting up as though nothing had happened as for whether it was a genuine match I couldnt tell ya ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuhnPaen Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) The sad part is that they were probably real former fighters who retired with nothing. Even Buakaw--Thailand's superstar, was getting only a few hundred a fight during his prime--until he left his camp and became his own man. I've been training in Thailand for over a decade, and I've met so many cab drivers, moto-taxi drivers, etc. that were former fighters who had upwards of 100 fights and have nothing to show for it. This spectacle in the video is the "fighter graveyard."....btw...you can always spot the former fighters and trainers by how fat they are. All of my coaches had pot belly's like the guy in this vid.

Stokakrishna Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 it is staged. in the past when i stayed in a boxing camp in ayuthaya we had to give shows like that during various thai festivals. quite funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
