What Happens When Muai Thai Fighters Try Lethwei?

Fancy story but what about how Thailand remains the only country in Southeast Asia that never been under colonization? Also, that period of Tuangoo era was like few years if i remember collectly.. And the worst part is that Dave (self-claim king of Lethwei) even learned Muay Thai before he dominated in Lethwei but now he is all about dis-credit on Muay Thai 😂

Dave Leduc is well spoken as well, he seems like the guy who would just chill with anyone and not judge unless someone popped off. Doesn't look it but hes a fighting animal........like as someone else said maybe with a tiny splash of psychopath. Check out his highlights real I have watched it three times in a row and its pretty amazing. The fighter he beat to get the world title Too Too was killed by Myanmar army. The whole country, culture and sport I just learned about its fascinating!😃

I think this was Rogans best guest in just how into his art with heart he is and his story is crazeee too. Basically became Myanmar but he was first Canadian like me🙂🙂🙂

Stupid question.

This guy couldn’t cut it in Muay Thai, couldn’t cut it in MMA, found a sport were he outweighs everyone dude is a glorified weight bully

Fuck that muay thai is a lot better to watch imo, headbutts are nasty

And he is vegan... So Rogan are you now going to say vegans are weak?

Bullshit Khmer empire

Stylistically muaythai was only created 200-300 years ago by modifying boxing rules and equipments, and the style was adopted by myanmar and cambodia. It's simple to understand really, Thailand was never colonised and to avoid it had to westernise themselves

Joe should talk to Billy Moore on a podcast

I just saw a add ab Luke skywalker in a new movie called "the machine"

Seeing shorts from these clips again..

He’s only 27!!!! Damnnn

BOKATOR is the father of muay thai and Lethwei

Reminder that Muay Thai originally from Khmer Empire. Kun Khmer is identical to Muay Thai because it came from Cambodia. Ask Thailand to show "ancient" tangible proof of their martial art. They don't have any, only the Khmer people do and it's on their ancient temples. You see Thai people imitate Khmer culture and everything. Even the ancient Thai ayutthaya temples imitate khmer architect for the stupa. If Muay Thai was from Thailand, the ancient(Boran) people would have at least kept record of it on ancient temples. They only started showcasing the khmer art to europeans when cambodia just recovered from the "dark ages". Bokator and Kun Khmer are the true ancestors of these art. Lethwei and Muay Thai is not on UNESCO, only Bokator, an art which resembles these style is. It was been verified through extensive research, hence why UNESCO registered this martial art of Bokator.

what about the khmer empire? Kun Khmer is the original MuaiThai

Vegan

Absolute legend this guy 100% and I think he could do well in any combat sports

To remind that Khmer Empire is the biggest mainland Empire in southeast asean

Im offended because, as a muay thai enthousiast....i just started training lethwei 😂❤

I will claps the hands for Burmese boxing if this guy is a master of Lethweir. But he's not this guy learn Muay Thai in Thailand at the first place and he flopped then he switch to Lethweir and get famous by calling Old Buakaw and he can sell his NFT and promoting his shirts in Myanmar.

I don't know much - maybe this guy is good, but his arrogance & inability to take blame or accept shortcomings seem childish to me. This art hasn't taught him spirit, maybe?

Lethwei is Burma's (Myanmar)martial art .that's really brutal.

I hear from Pro Muay Thai fighters and promoters LeDuc is just bad at Muay Thai that's why he went to do Lethwei. He only fought smaller opponents and every challenge by an actual pro muaythai fighter he declined.

He's also been banned from Muaythai for his stupid comments about the sport

Cambodia enters the chat.

Kun Khmer is the best, Joe Rogan

I think it's funny that this guy's talking about this lift weigh and how he's all this and that and if you look at him he's only had like four or five fights and I mean hasn't proved anything to anybody anybody can get lucky a couple times he fought the second and then the and then the the champ yammy and he's a Muay Thai Fighter he is a liar and a fraud and all aspects of everything

This guy got beat up in other combat sports, and went to fight where theres a bunch of nobodies. You can find videos of him getting KO'd in no name organizations. This is what we call "wolf tickets".

not true... its the Angkor people that ruled SEA and the martial arts is bokator or Kbach Kun Pradal Khmer...

Heard many Myanmar people are starting to dislike this guy for always fighting smaller people. Soon he might go fight Kun Kmer, a Muay thai knock off. Even a grade D Muay thai fighter can become the god of Kun Khmer in Cambodia. Noe he can make $10 a fight 😂😂😂

Sucks. He is still a nobody, the king of what again?

Buakaw would fuck Leduc up badly

Started watching lethwei when i was in high school. Used to grab the fight VCDs at this little Burmese shop in toronto. INSANE Martial arts style 🤯🤯😱😀😀😃

ทุกวันนี้ห้ามเข้าประเทศไทยตลอดชีวิต ปลาหมอตายเพราะปาก

Let's talk abouot Kun Khmer, the origin of Mouy Thai

He ended his own career with his big mouth 🤷‍♂️

I don't see any ear biting

wheres he at now?

This guy is lethal

I always knew lethwei is the completion of Muay and Indochinese boxing overall.

Anyone who thinks this guy can hang with the elite thai fighters are dumb, this guy could break every bone in my body don't get me wrong but muy thai has a much bigger pool of elite fighters

Shit's way too brutal

I wanna learn Latwai or Sanda for stand up.

Mushti Yuddha from India is the parent art for all South East Asian arts like lethwei, muay boran and muay thai.

Is lethwei kinda open weight? Because Dave looks sometimes a lot bigger tha nhis burmese or thai rivals.

Funny, last I checked, Burma couldn’t conquer Thailand 😂😂😂

If only he fought people his size LOL
