This shit is pretty brutal. They still fight with the hand wraps, no gloves, virtually no rules in most of the regions. Some of the more remote areas go by a "three knockout" rule or just keep going until somebody is completely out. A few of the guys have had success in Thailand and Cambodia.



There actually was a guy in my college town that trained this stuff and fought over there, i'm still kicking myself for not training at his place (his was a more Western approach...gloves, safety equip. etc.)
