I'm from Western Europe and I fought in Thailand for fun, even if I was training 6/7 like a pro during a couple of years. I never felt so free, I felt like I had a purpose. I miss that so much. May sounds crazy and I never got invloved in a street fight I hate free violence. But I think some people are just made to fight and we enjoy the pain.
I also trained in thailand and truly was the one time in my life I felt like I had a purpose. but as a westerner you know damn well this was a choice, a fun thing to do. The people all around the world who get into fight sports because they have no other opportunity are the ones who make it to the top. Francis Ngannu perfect example. Westerners playing in the fight game for fun is cultural appropriation. I hope you didn't get many CTE from you fun "fight" tourism, just like sex tourism you need to realize your place. Rolling steel rebar on my shins between training sessions has made my legs stronger than any other part of my body to this day. Kapunkaaaa
@@kayleighohler9999 fighting for fun is cultural appropriation...? Haha. Maybe go tell that to hispanic boxers. Or Francis Ngannou for that matter. Hey, we can't all be rocket scientists right? I'm sure you meant well.
@@mysterioanonymous3206 Do you not understand what a westerner means in this context? Someone from USA or WESTERN Europe who travels to thailand because they want to take part in the CULTRAL TRADITION of thai boxing. You know of many mexicans who do this? no, they stay in mexico and box. You know of many nigerians who do this? no, they fight in their regional scene until, like francis, they get the opportunity to travel to EUROPE AKA FRANCE to train. get rekt kiddo
@@kayleighohler9999 but modern boxing isn't from Mexico, it's from "the west", yet you wouldn't call those mexican boxers out for appropriating western culture, would you? Or does Ngannou appropriate US/Brazilian style MMA, given he is Ghanaian? You even mention that he traveled to FRANCE... FRANCE. That isn't in Africa. And Mexican Boxers sure as hell don't stay in Mexico either you potato. You should go tell your nonsense to rich white american women doing Yoga retreats all over Asia sometime. I'd be curious how they feel about your opinion. You hypocrite. And frankly, you don't strike me as particularly sharp or educated so perhaps leave the thinking, and talking, to people better suited for it. You embarrass yourself, kiddo. Maybe you got a little too much Muay Thai'd in your head as it sounds.
I've trained Muay Thai for 15 years, in the US under legendary Thai fighters. I've also trained in Thailand, and love it today as much I did 15 years ago. Respect to all Thai fighters and nak muay!
Yeah? When I was in Bangkok I always used to go past that guy right outside my MRT stop. Street food vendor. Had this little deep fry type bicycle like cart. Looked close to 50yo or so. Sometimes his wife helped too. He had those pictures up on his stall of him fighting in Lumpini stadion. I wonder how much it paid him? And if he has any physical constraints and ailments from years of fighting? Im sure he does. They all do. My hands are messed up too and I was barely an amateur. I wonder if he has his retirement sorted? But I doubt it. You'd be surprised how many guys this happens to. When the lights go out... it's a lot less glamorous than you might think.
Nothing like Muay Thai. True warrior spirits who come from nothing, and fight for everything. You could do an entire series with all the different provinces, and still only see a fraction of the fighters Thailand has to offer. Some of the hardest, yet most humble people in the world.
My dad would tell us stories of Irish men whipping their shirts off in NYC alleys ,men yelling and betting,no 🧤,nothing fancy,and beating the crap out of each other in Depression years...that's street fighting he would say....I don't know.seems like poor guys just trying to make some $$ any way they can...
You need a 2 years later following up video of thier journeys. Right after Naeem got out of military, and Peter after 2 years of professional fight. It would be such a drama.
Brilliant video Vice. Love Muay thai, been training for 2 years now, been to Thailand and trained over there for a month. Beauitul country, beautiful sport 🙏
Martial Arts is my life!! I have been training for 18 months now... kickboxing, wrestling, and no gi BJJ. I will be having my first smoker event soon, and then start my amateur career. God Bless. It gave me purpose, focus, and discipline above all else.
To everyone aspiring to be great, young and old, just know there is no starting to late. You don’t need to start young to be great nor is it a given that you will be if you start young. Take it from me, a person that started really young in their passion and never made it pro, with the amount of information accessible today, people can be outworked in a matter of years
After watching a bunch of mma and muy thai vids this is is a nice way to round out the evening while eating some off brand cherrios straight from the box. I am but a simple man.
i tell you this, you combined a tradition martial arts with strict monk like religion virtues and discipline, you have the super weapon. i mean look at Muay Thai, they respect the arts to the highest level, monk discipline, the warrior's humble, that is dangerous for those who challenges them. You never see your own fall dueling with them. And when you are fallen, they bow to you in respect of their God.
this is a Very Positive understanding of what real Men are like. The Devil and angel fight of control. Everyone faces this battle.... I like this documentary Very much.
This underground fighting looks very different from what you see in movies where people usually bash each other's heads in without rules or gloves or any other protection and even if someone gets injured or killed no one but their friends and family gives a damn. This looks more like a smaller scale legal fight with protective gear, referees and proper rules.
Street fighting is better than dogfighting any day💯

That’s weird, boy was enlisted to the military almost around his mid 20’s. Isn’t it common to be when boys are at the age of 18 worldwide, or this is just a Thailand tradition???

Yess
True this is well made
Agreed
Vice needs to put the underground fighters in the same room with the gender / feminist debaters

When I hear Muay Thai I instantly think of Rodtang,who already had 250 wins by the time he was 21. Thais are born fighters.

I was literally thinking about how he's similar to Rodtang as well
อนาคตนักมวยไทยจากยุโรปและอเมริกาจะแข็งแกร่งขึ้น เพราะพวกเขาเริ่มฝึกจริงจังตั้งแต่เด็ก ยิ่งเก็บประสบการณืมากๆจะแกร่งขึ้นแน่นอน ด้วยร่างกายของคนตะวันตกมีขนาดที่ใหญ่กว่า กล้ามเนื้อดีกว่า และวินัยของการฝึก
nah that head-butt knock down was crazyyy
Muay Thai is the original bloodsport
Nah that’s pankration

Not gonna lie, I really needed to hear this brother. Thank you.
True you can’t be too old. But with age and injuries, your options become much more limited.
The cinematography was fantastic
I never knew underground fighting could be this wholesome.
Some tough doods. Heart of giants. It’s never the size of a man but do u have heart. This guys def got heart.
Teasing this video as "can a street fighter beat a pro" and then ending on "whoopsy, turns out we'll never know!" is reprehensible.
Street fighter: Because we are gentlemen, we stand up to fight

I decided to look at vice’s most popular videos and regret it, people are so down bad man 🤣

18:13 that elbow 💀
More of these plz… guys killed it
Finally some more real stories from Vice and not nonsense.
I know these guys and trained with a few of them. They are a good bunch.
And the fight was “put on hold indefinitely”. Aww man ☹️ I was really looking forward to seeing that
21:35 --> Damn this hit me!
Vice got some dope ass mini documentary’s better then the garbage on Tv
We're STREET FIGHT THAILAND 👊🏻

Great job with the language presentation
You think that VICE reporter recognizes this guy from the War Room? 😂😂
16:33 bro crushed his whole spirit I bet he never gets in a fight again after this😂😂😂
These guys are gangstas until i pull out my rocket launcher and proton cannon with infinite ammo.
PEW PEW 🔫
And you are gangsta untill they are standing infront of you 💀
Quit playing computer games.

Thanks to vice for making something people want to watch again. Can we keep it that way ffs?
VICE has stepped their game up lately!! Keep it up!
What an absolute badass! People like this just amaze me. God Bless you.
First rule of fight club is... you don't talk about fight club lol
If anybody yells street fight party at the function I'm headed home
The street fights have better reffing then most sanctioned events LOL
Not tryna take anything away from the people in the video but, The "King of the streets" fights make those streets fights look tame
Muay Thai is the king of martial arts
I had to quit smoking: proceeds to smoke through the video.
Lets get it my Thai brothers💪🏽

Shout out to Naeem for fighting for his country.
This fight needs to happen though....🙌
This is Vice. Not sponsored war reportage.

can we all appreciate the cigarettes after sex and sonic youth tattoos of the lady in the beginning, thats super cool to see
How convenient that the military comes along. I kid, but I bet it will be a great fight when they do meet up.
In Lethwei you can use headbutts they call it the 9 limbs
Why yo 1080p look like 480p bruh
Great doc
homie showed up in a clown costume ☠
Excellent!
Interesting that they call them by their nickname plus neighborhood.
Interesting topic
Yo why did the coach put on a headgear to hold pads?
Be safe to all fighters, from all forms or martial arts & combat sports.....
...... hope leave everything in the ring & maintain sportsmanship throughout, before & after fights.....
Peace be to all my fellow humans..... 🙂
Do a documentary on KOTS in Sweden.
Love this video
Kind of scary how causal he is about murdering people, thailand is different glad he's changed.
Fascinating !
Why you turn the comments off on the andrew tate documentary? Because you made a bs documentary and know people dont agree with what you portrayed!!
Enjoyed it. But let me know there's not gonna be a payoff sooner.
That's where they come from Sagat and Bison.
a documentary on forex and forex trading. next. Please and thank you.
🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥Thailand looks amazing!
I genuinely hate the little dude who went to interview the tates
Would love to see these fights in Bangkok
Street Beefs vibez.
Vice any chance you make a video about kick boxing but keep the comments on this time
is kick boxing the same as s3x offending? ;)
It's so awesome to see such respect between fighers and on community level
real gentlemen kick the balls 3 times, but any more than that makes you a heathen.
Great doc. Does Peter have Instagram?
