- Roufus wants to fight a (Thai) Muay Thai fighter, but the fight takes place under 'special' ISKA rules; Changpuek is not allowed knee, elbow or leg grab and kick supporting leg - techniques allowed in a true Muay Thai fight. Changpuek needs a bit of time getting used to the rules before sending Roufus to the hospital. The commentators/Roufus' corner... What a bitter showcase of ignorance and frustration.

The amazing part was that Changpuek has broken jaw since the 1st round.
Great great fight one of a kind. What still amazes me how Changpuek survived the first round. Both fighters have great heart.
Great piece of History, Im here because of the Rogan podcast, but Im also here because this is the best uncut video of this I could find on youtube. The other ones were either edited with crappy emotional music, removing the commentary OR with some crazy image correction/stabiliser that was whack and ruined the video. So thanks for this upload - it totally lived up to the hype.
Haha rick’s brother, duke said "it takes no talent to throw a low kick."... Later he became known as a great Muay Thai fighter and especially known for dangerous leg kicks.
+lorenz lin and after that Rick too changed his style. Many kickboxers changed their styles. Only Don Wilson saved real old kickboxing.
So you're saying it takes more talent to be proficient with a less useful martial art? So when everyone is fighting on equal terms using a highly efficient martial art (muay thai), what do you call it when someone is able to trump another fighter due to mastery of the martial art? Luck? You don't think anyone with talent in kickboxing could transfer their talent to the art of muay thai? It takes talent to be effective in muay thai, to be able to use the thai skillset to it's utmost and beat other powerful fighters, it's not something as simple as just learning how to use muay thai and then you'll be able to win any fight with ease because you're using a "dumber" type of fighting style. You're on equal fighting terms because you're fighting other people using the same martial art as you do, obviously the more talented will rise to the top.
There are a lot of different factors determining the result of a fight, how do you know that the only reason he won was because he had more talent? What if he trained harder? What if he fought fighters with more talent than him but due to their lack of experience and hard work could not best him? Most importantly, How do you even go about measuring raw talent in a fight? Rick is a talented fighter, as shown by his record, but you would have no way of measuring any opposing fighters talent, just like Rick losing to Changpuek Kiatsongrit does not mean he had less talent. Secondly, you keep talking about Rick beating "they" and "them" at their own game, but this faceless mass you're referring to consists only of a select number of fighters, obviously there are multiple people who would tear his ass apart, so no he did not beat anyone at their own game, rather he adopted a different type of game and excelled in it.
@Damon Hargrave incel white boy still salty about a fight that happened in 1988 rofl.
Imagine if this were pure Thai rules.....Whoa!!!
they banned all the trademark moves of muay thai and then blamed the rules when they lost
if they rematch in muay thai rules roufus will die
Ben Dover I agree
@Damon Hargrave nobody said to him he should take every kick I think that's the basic thing to learn. Defend yourself. He lost cause he has less experience than the Thai fighter
Damon Hargrave yawnnnn.... end day, the thai won with a broken jaw. You ever been in a fight before? What you said is a joke...
@Damon HargraveThe yanks tried every rule in the book to make this fight in favour of Rufus but failed miserably. Don't try to sugar coat his loss. You know Muay thai first round is warm up and feeling out. The funny thing is there was 1000 more muay thai fighters back in Thailand better then this guy in the 80's, Rick should have faced Sagat so he could learn he can lose by only Thai Clinch and Knees nothing else hahaha
whats ironic is Roufas ended up beating a few fighters that beat Kitsongrit and even knocking him out lol
lol at Duke's interview.... then cut to his brother leaving on a stretcher.
What's hilarious is that except for Round 1, Roufus is getting the shit kicked out of him, but listening to the commentator, you'd think that Roufus is winning the fight....and I'm not referring to all the points deducted by fouls.
dude had to leave on a stretcher but they cheered themselves up on the fact that he wasn't punched LMAO
Also Rufus kicked Changpuek in the face when he was down. Not sure if thats allowed back then or not.
@@Mark147KTM
It definitely was not legal to kick a downed opponent.
I just love how the referee keeps counting the points as it would heal the Roufus's legs.
Kiatsongrit is clearly so much better of a fighter than this guy AND is 40 pounds lighter than him. He's a more well-roudned fighter who knows more techniques, clinches, knees, and elbows, AND is better than him at his own game. Absolutely amazing display of Muay Thai's dominance here.
referee is biased....
"No Elbow, No Knee"...da fk.
the commentator's statements are so cringeworthy
utterly clueless and biased. they're praising roufus while he's falling down in front of their very eyes
at 26:15 you can actually see him crying like datum!!! kiatsongrit is a beast!!!
Changpuek said he felt there were something extraordinary hard protecting the lower legs so he switched to kick the upper legs instead and you can see it when a doctor was working with Rufus leg while he was crying.
Brutal kicks, like getting hit by a mule. Thais can cut a banana tree down with blows to the trunk.
Stomp! No, that’s just a tap. 😂
That was VERY PAINFUL to watch....JESUS Christ...
You can see in the video rick has thick pads on his shins that the other fighter did not have. long pants to hide the shin pads.
their called shinguards lmao
@@omegasquad868Yes and they are illegal.
Con esa pelea todo EEUU conoció al muay thai
Frog legs broken
From when “remastered” is just brightness increase?
I LOVE HOW THE AMERICANS USE A PG WATER DOWNED VERSION OF MUAY THAI N I LOVED KNOWING THAT THIS WATERED DOWN VERSION GOT CRUSHED, EVEN WITH ALL THE HANDICAPS GIVEN TO ROOFUS N NOT TO MENTION THE ILLIEGAL SOCCER KICK HE DID TO KIT N DIDNT GETTING CALLED ON IT .. I LOVED KNOWING THAT KITS CORNER WOULD OF JST TOLD HIM TO DESTROY HIS WEAK LEGS 😂😂😂😂
กระโดดแรกๆหลังๆไม่อยากเดินเลย5555
14:09 best moment ever
Given how many points were deducted, Roufus would have won if this fight went to the judges.
how ironic when roufus said he was going to fight under their rules.
so satisfy
11:17 тайцы немножко схитрили, растянув перерыв. Пока подмост вытирали от воды Чангпуек набрался сил
This is literally Tong Po VS Eric Sloan
Literally he did not attempt to defend from those kicks, Putting his legs out while both are south-paw.
Roufus was the cheater. He knew that Thai fighter could using low kick, so before this fight began, he wrapped his both low legs with very thick cloth and hard gaiter. You can see at time 25:39 of this video.
Changpuek, Thai fighter, said in an interview. He felt pain every time he kicked Roufus low leg.
you are so wrong thats not what he said he said he knew Roufas felt pain and Roufas didnt wrap anything he was simply wearing shinguards
@@omegasquad868 It is illegal to wear shinguard.
So one of them is wearing shinguard while the other is not and you think that there's nothing wrong with that ?
What where their weights?
They weigh the same, 163 vs. 162 pounds, in the fight presentation he announces it.
@@martinrosso6243 The Kickfighting historian Alex Tsui said that Changpuek was 163 lbs while Rick Roufus was 167 lbs.
What is the most important is that that earlier same year Changpuek fought at 150 lbs against the felloe Thai fighter named Payap Premchai in a rematch.
@@8limbedwarriornakmuay504 They were weighed for this event, it is announced in the full video as in all the fights, they weighed the same. People make up many fantastic stories, here in the comments some say that Roufus was 50 lbs heavier, others that Changpuek let him hit the first round because Thais like to receive punishment.
@@8limbedwarriornakmuay504 th-cam.com/video/AEc0V2meQdw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6_yqAg3PKRqtBc5w
@@martinrosso6243 It doesn’t matter if they weighed almost the same for this fight.
Changpuek was not a 160+ lbs fighter, he fought at 140-150 lbs against fellow Thai fighters during that time.
Roufus was not 50 lbs bigger than Changpuek but Roufus was 13 lbs to 23 lbs ( if we believe the announcer ) or 17 lbs to 27 lbs ( if we believe Alex Tsui who is a striking historian ) bigger than Changpuek.
Again being 13 lbs to 27 lbs heavier ( Rick was a 163-167 lbs fighter ) than your opponent ( who is a 140-150 lbs fighter ) and still losing to him by KO ( while wearing shinguards ) is truly a bad look.
This is funny, telling changpuek no knees, no elbows, no clinch, but you can still kick his leg,
The brother of Rick has only given me the impression that Rick is a bad loser without sportsmanship at all.
there is just so much misinformation in this comments people are just clueless 99.9% are you just clueless to what happened here
Sloans vs Tong Po right here
IF ROOFUS STAYED INSIDE THE BOX N JUST OUT BOXED HIM HE COULD OF WON
2019 y aun les duele las piernas al gringo
Los comentaristas incluso racistas viendo a su compatriota recibir una paliza jajjaja
That's why muay thai always beats boxing/kickbixing in the present days. Thai men are the warriors .... 😜😜😜
Peter Cunningham beat every Thai fighter and champion he fought including the Thai superstar legend Sagat also Benny Urquidez, Don Wilson, Dave Johnston just to name a few all beat Thai champions back then
@@omegasquad868 You didnt just say that did you? Imagine something 20 kg bigger beating someone 20 kg smaller. Just a proof why Muay thai beats Boxing/Kickboxing ....
@@omegasquad868
Sagat easily won the first fight against Peter despite it not being under Muay Thai rules.
In the rematch Sagat was forced to change weight that same year because of Peter wanting to fight at a lower weighclass.
And also Sagat retired after the fight he was way past his prime at that time.
None of two fights were under Muay Thai rules at all.
@@omegasquad868 Don Wilson lost to both Fanta Attapong and Samart Prasatmit.
@@omegasquad868Dave easily lost to Nongkhai twice, Sombat and Yarsin.
Those fights are online you can go watch them.
And also Nongkhai was way past his prime at that time.
lmao that brother so salty... USA USA USA! xD
they banned all the trademark moves of muay thai and then blamed the rules when they lost. rich
Ref is a joker.
Wenn sich dieser roufus damals nicht so überheblich benommen hätte und nicht rumgehüpft wäre wie ein clown dann könnte man mitleid empfinden. So denkt man einfach , was für ein lappen?? .....was wäre passiert wenn der thai kämpfer nach seinen gewohnten bedingungen hätte kämpfen dürfen??
roufus' head would've been split open with knees and elbows
