    I did Best of the Best last week and now I’m just in a martial arts mood so you’re getting Kickboxer now. I’ve planned out the next years worth of videos and Kickboxer was not on it at all and someone suggested it a couple weeks ago and here we are. So never stop requesting movies for me to do because I could just change everything and do that one. I'm crazy like that.
    So sound off! What are some of the movies that you need to see featured?

      In honor of Raul Julia please review Streetfighter. Sad that it was Mr. Julia's final film....but then again, he was also in Overdrawn At The Memory Bank.
      Or Hard Target, JCVD rocks a mullet.

    I have yet to see any confirmation on this, but I am pretty certain that this film is very loosely based on the fight between kickboxer Rick Roufus and Muay Thai boxer Changpuek Kiatsongrit. It's an amazing fight to watch, and was one of the first fights Westerners saw Muay Thai in. Roufus lost, and his younger brother Duke had a lot to say about the integrity of Changpuek (who won the 5th round after an extended series of leg and shin kicks, which Duke thought were really dirty). Duke then went on to learn Muay Thai, and for awhile was considered one of the top instructors and proponents of the same kicks that beat his brother.
    The parallels between this movie and that match and it's background are pretty close, is all I'm saying.

    They're fighting in Lumpini Stadium in Bankok Thailand. Throwing in the towel doesn't work in these fights. Aggression is absolutely encouraged. I think you're only allowed to fight in Lumpini Stadium if you have at least 300 professional Muay Thai fights...which is common for Thai residents who start at age 4 and fight once a week.
