All The Fighter Are Afraid Of This Crazy Muay Thai Champion, But The Skinny Guy Challenges Him

[@AstroMan-pb1yo]

This one and Bloodsport are my favorite JCVD movies

[@Zurround]

A constant debate over the years is who would win between Chong Li and Tong Po. Frank Dux vs Kurt Sloane would also be interesting. I posted on another thread that my money would be on Kurt if it was SPECIFICALLY a Muay Thai fight as that was his "specialty" and he would have "home court advantage" but that Frank was the more well rounded martial artist and would have won a Kumite fight which is basically a street fight due to his extensive knowledge of wrestling and grappling technique and other attacks that would not have been allowed in a Muay Thai fight.

[@jossiwales]

"this one" what's this movie called? Why are these recap videos never including the names of the movie??

[@artisticsolarninja]

Bloodsport may be good film but the story of Frank Dux are BS and its all on his imagination. He never accomplished his mission by the end of the vietnam war nor never competed in the kumite. He made it up and his so called ninjutsu master. Doesn't exist. He never train any form of martial arts that the movie depicted. It was inaccurately wrong and doesn't make sense

I'm so confused? i watched this film over ten times as a kid and I'm sure there wasn't HD in 1989?

[@keithd2284]

Actual film, which most movies were shot on, has inherent HD quality. As long as they have the original analog film they can create digital HD copies. TV shows are hit or miss. A lot of them were shot on film, but often all that remains are SD recordings of the original broadcast.

[@MarckHagos]

Erick is a real kickboxing champion a legend in his one right.not only in movie.

[@Pokerface-tr1ds]

Seen that one when it came out back in the 90s. Oh man.. look at him.. how young Jean Claude van Damme and Dennis Alexio were. Ah! Good times!

[@johnsheetz6639]

Van damme's movies had a pretty specific formula. I'm there for every bit of it. Most of it. Hell I'm watching a recap on a movie I saw 200 times when I was a kid.

[@paulgorohovsky8215]

Modern Kickboxing did not in fact originate in the US, it was born in Japan in the 1960’s, and gained traction in the US in the next following years. Kickboxing is ancient in history, with records from Greece and India practicing the art. Muay Thai is an Thai art of combat, which has it’s own history, but does have some similarities with kickboxing, but it is in fact distinct from it. Anyway, nice video! 👏🏼

[@michaelfarar4232]

They ripped off Muay Thai .....boxing and karate and called it kickboxing

[@wiruncha3395]

japanese created it from muaythai and a little karate after their fighters came to thailand in the 50-60, where is your version of history from?

[@paulgorohovsky8215]

@@wiruncha3395Look up the origins of kickboxing, I never said the Japanese didn’t take inspiration from Muay Thai in their creation of modern Kickboxing. Emphasis on the ‘modern’ part. What I did say was that Kickboxing was practiced for a long time beforehand, and has existed as a art of fighting since ancient times, sure the evidence of it is drawings and whatnot, but still, Kickboxing is just that, kicking and boxing, and that; again, was practiced for a long ass time.

[@MrRecapFromYouTube]

TBH his speed was really impressive

[@Zurround]

I feel that the movie script writers were over reaching when the villain assaulted his girlfriend (the real word for that, the fruit used to make wine minus the first letter would be censored out) and his brother was kidnapped and threatened. I think the movie would have been better if those things had not happened and he had simply been an underdog fighting an uphill battle at the end. Would Rocky 4 have been a better movie if the Russians had kidnapped his son or had Adrian assaulted before his fight against Ivan Drago? NOPE. Also, I found it a tad odd that the handlers of Tong Po would have gotten so worried by Kurt winning ONE professional fight. Back when Mike Tyson was champ if someone claimed they were going to beat him and then won ONE fight nobody would bat an eye. I think he should have won a SERIES of SEVERAL fights and with each victory Tong Po's handlers should have gotten gradually more nervous as it would show CONSISTENCY. To keep the movie from being 3 hours long it could have been a "montage" of sorts the way Clubber Lang beat several opponents in Rocky 3 in only a few minutes of screen time.

[@satouhikou1103]

Yeah, that happens in Thailand. It was realistic.

[@klabkebash]

5:47 - Fuck Now!!! Tonight We Going Drinking... 🤪🤣

[@doclee8755]

“This actor should have tried kickboxing in real life…” please tell me that was just a bad joke? Maybe you don’t know Dennis Alexio, he had a long kickboxing career and was one of the best ever. He had 72 sanctioned fights with 68 wins. 63 of them by knockout. One loss recorded, that’s it. I spent 29 years in martial arts from the early 80s and on…anyhow, we trained and had a circle of some of the most well-known in our world…anyhow, despite his current “situation”, he was an amazing fighter…you can’t learn to throw kicks like the ones in the park from actor training. I can spot the fake fighters and those who learned “for a movie.” I’ve trained many of them…my small circle was inside the Parker Kenpo world…still is. Anyhow, poor joke or ignorance, I’ll hope for the former.

It's nearby the Grand Palace and taxi drivers tell foreigners the palace is closed for a few hours due to over crowding and they suggest taking a boat ride in the meantime. They drive you to a dock area where they negotiate a ridiculous high price for a 30 min boat tours. I fought it from near 1200 Bhat ($40) down to 300Bhat ($10) and they were still happy I agreed to do it and they drove us through the canals where people lived just like in the movie Kickboxer.

Muay thai is still is kickboxing style. It focuses clinch and elbows and knees. Kickboxing is a hybrid style combines of karate, taekwondo and kung fu(sanda), with boxing. and it was an umbrella term that was invented in japan during after ww2 and during the korean war and during the start of vietnam war
