China's MMA Club for Poor and Orphaned Boys

In Chengdu, China, Enbo MMA Club has become a home for orphans and kids from impoverished homes who come to train as mixed martial arts experts. The club's founder, Mr. Enbo, has trained hundreds of young fighters free of charge, like Banma Duoji, an 18-year-old who grew up poor in a single-parent home in Tibet.
On this episode of 'VICE INTL,' Banma explains how he ended up at the club, and how Enbo has become a father figure who's helped him turn into one of the group's fiercest fighters. Then we follow Banma as he trains for a big pro match, where the "Prince of Fighters" looks to maintain his impressive five-fight winning streak.

Enbo MMA Club has trained hundreds of children from impoverished Tibetan communities, giving kids like Banma Duoji-a rising professional competitor-a chance to thrive. WATCH NEXT: Thai Prison Fights - vice.video/2iPKLwC

[@tenzinlhakpa1672]

VICE it’s Penpa Dorji, there is no such name as Banda Duoji in our culture. If you are against Chinese oppression in Tibet, then please make the corrections.

[@josephhui1986]

It's Banma Duoji, not Banda Duoji. And also Tibet is a part of China.

[@aurorapassenger00fu40]

VICE This is actually REALLY Cool because anybody can simply watch some MMA fights or choose favorites based on simply the Persons Fighting Skills or even the amount of Fame, (or Infamy), a Name has such as McGregor or Anderson Silva for example. But unless your a avid Fan of MMA and specifically look up backgrounds or Histories of Fighters, not alot of people actually get to see how different Fighters really are ethnically and Mentally and what led them to MMA and the reason they chose the Blood Sport amongst all the other things out there to choose from. Really Great Video and you definitely earned my "Thumbs Up" for the Video. 👍

I remember watching this 2 years ago but when I watch this now, it seems as though they added an introduction, shortened the video and changed the music.

[@shoxty]

The poor and disenfranchised always make the best fighters. They’re not fighting for the sport, they’re fighting to survive. It’s the stereotype of every great boxing film/story.

[@SaltVinegar2010]

Shoxty That's what I always say too. A large percentage of good boxers & fighters are Irish because it used to be a poor country. Poorer countries definitely develop better fighters in sport.

[@mrhow22]

True they are not fighting for glory they are fighting to eat,so he has to knock you out to feed his family ...

[@Desertdolphin43]

Mexican Boxers too

[@Mario-sy4nw]

Everybody gravitates towards the path that is best suited to their skills, intelligence, and work ethic. If you like math maybe you go into accounting or physics. If your good at fixing or building things maybe you become a mechanic or architect. If you can tolerate blood and like helping the sick you become a doctor. Whatever it takes to survive, just like these Chinese kids. I hope the UFC will visit their fight club.

[@kaguth]

Yeah, it's true. Whether it's in the US, Mexico, the Philippines. The fighters who start out with the least always fight the hardest.

[@rea8585]

I was constantly thinking about the reason behind these boys' power and will to fight, to keep going. They are not just doing it because they have nothing better to do, they are actually trying to provide for themselves, their family and escape the sad life they would otherwise have. So many of us can't imagine living the way these people do and I feel nothing but deep respect for all of them!

[@artdisciple]

good for you

[@MouseCIick]

meanwhile in American spoil little brats crying because they lost their ipad.

[@SirPhillyLeong]

Poor kids make the best fighters. Example: Pacman, GGG, most of the South American fighters. In general poor immigrants work harder because they remember being hungry and going to bed without food.

[@takyrdai2432]

yes, no implied politics in this film, if your deaf and blind.

[@dropbox8166]

Takyr Dai oh really I didn't see it. Will you explain your reasoning pls

[@takyrdai2432]

For starters this kid is from tibet which china took over, destroying the culture and family life. Then you have the issue that these children are poor and or orphans were the only way out is to fight other poor orphans? Now you have children fighting in the fields of sorrow, either from being impoverished or without parents among other things, learning to fight in a cage until their body is broken... there is plenty more to go on...

[@SuperMrfafa]

Takyr Dai i think Dean meant that the director of this documentary filmed it without a political opinion in mind, in contrast to many of Vices films; he filmed only to show us of the successes and failures of the school and the fighter.

[@theotryhard8651]

the politics wasn't implied, he's right, they showed it as it was.

[@robertderry5069]

habalula15 why? Does an opinion bother you?

[@sasham6960]

Yeah. I agree. I really enjoyed this video because it’s so realistic. I don’t travel a lot so I don’t have the opportunity to meet people from different countries, cities, towns.. different family backgrounds even. It’s really amazing to be able to see a tiny snippet of someone’s life. You really start to look at your life after this. I just find it fascinating how every single person is brought up differently in different situations. These are the things that shape a person’s mind and character, after all.

kizaru melon btw he’s just complimenting the guy Why are you being so salty?

[@dzevada1992]

I think what the other person is saying yes he’s getting them out... but in reality he’s trying to train some kids to fight n hoping they will make him money, it’s not that he opened a missionary or a ministry safe haven like we have in the states and is helping and raising money for children, he’s teaching them to fight lol because of the standards in the us you will really never have a situation like this, while it’s cool in me vies, if someone was raising kids to fight and giving them all they needed to survive Americans would probably protest it. It’s kind of like when we hear if child labor in China, them were like oh no that’s not good! Lol but I’m from Europe I worked hard as a kid so for me it’s w.e I was able to stay home alone at an early age like 5 lol 😂 I was able to buy cigs and alcohol for my parents too at that age but in America that’s crazy. So I understand what the Chinese commenter meant

[@theunprofessionalleon2470]

Good news, kids can go back and train now. The government suspended the gym previously due to suspecting kids might be here against their wills and suspecting the gym is making profit off of them and all. Now it appears that the gym can be classified as charity organization, kids from poor background can make a living out of it.

[@jennehmckenza9817]

For people who are concerned - 1. the club has reopened since the social media drama and with the government support it is now a fully qualified Sport School with better facilities. 2. I understand that some people's opinion on that everyone should go through the full education system, but for these kids it's not about being put into a box and get a degree to be a socially accepted white collar, MMA is a sport and for someone who truly wants to pursue a career in this, it is best for them to be trained professionally and forcus on their goals. Some people never even find their true goal in life or what they actually want to achieve so don't just look at them with pity. sorry for the rant.

If Dana White want to sell tickets he is surely going but if Dana White didn't feel the "thing" from him. He won't be there

[@thomasmei3443]

Desperation = panic = fear of failure which in the end creates a weaker mentality. For example Cus D amato created a monster of a champion Mike Tyson, he did this through a very complicated and strong mentality which broke his opponents before they even fought. Fighting is 90% mentality 10% physical- GSP. At the top level it is all about the mental capacity and strength, any drop of fear will create hesitation which means weakness. Also the UFC have far better training facilities. Street fights? The best martial artists/ fighters knows how to avoid fights out of the arena/sport.
