Burmese Boxing


BURMESE BOXING, Lethwei or Lethawae also known as Burmese Boxing and Myanma Traditional Boxing is style similar to Muay thai where knees, ... all » elbows and striking with head are allowed.Video is an entire match so it's kind of of long but the editor slowed down some of the good shots. It' more like a tough-man competition than the boxing we see in the states and nobody got knocked out. The little thick guy just got tired of getting punished and stood around for a countdown. Also the winner has apparently has to dance around with a wad of cash in his mouth
