Muay Boran EXPERT Debunks 10 Biggest Myths

[@wan8239]

i am from thailand and i love that you do video like this, to dispel any myth about muay boran and chaiya. the guys that like or train chaiya been yapping " oh it too dangerous to use in combat bah bah bah" bullshit and " oh chiya got ground fighting" my answer is all the same, the fighting the the feet muay thai do it wayyyy better and if i want ground fighting not some half effort attempt to defence my self i would go to bjj. i really don't the it too dangerous to use in combat talk and the bullshido knife defence that they start trying to do.

@@wan8239 Thank you for your comment and support, seeing that Thai people still care about their heritage being mistreated is comforting. Unfortunately still too few people care or actually do something. I hope it will change in the future 🙏

[@ภัทรกรสีภูธร]

I feel you bro. And they will say something like "muay boran is ancient martial art, it had been exist for 10,000 years" while thailand predecessor kingdom don't even exist yet. Some still think that muay thai is mother of all martial arts

Western Boxing is always disrespected in traditional Asian martial arts circles, but when history is examined, it seems it is respected in nearly every culture it has been seen in. It appears that many Asian arts have adopted some of its' techniques while those practitioners downplay Boxing and its' effectiveness, even though it is clearly seen to be effective despite its' rules limitations.

What was the unarmed techniques of Krabi Krabong? What techniques or style of muay boran would the unarmed techniques look like?

[@sethawutyoodee8030]

Krabi Krabong is a weapon techniques Krabi (กระบี่) is a double edge sword we calls Krabi and for Krabong (กระบอง) is a club, a mace. It's a blunt weapon techniques including quarter staff as well. We calls them Krabong. Muay boran is an unarmed technique use it when we lost our weapon. It have many techniques more than modern Muay Thai that only have punching, kicking, kneeing, elbowing and clinching techniques. But Muay boran would have throwing, grapping, breaking limbs techniques too and etc. It's like Muay Thai is a nerf version of our fighting style to make it become sport as you see today and Muay boran is the old version of our fighting style that we use in acutally war.

[@GaawutProductions]

I'm making a video on that, I'll let you know when it's ready

[@leonardobleda6699]

Could you make a video about Pahuyuth's supposed Primordial Muay/ Ling Lom/ Muai?(While punctuating their faults, scams or whatever random shit they got their hands dirty on)

[@GaawutProductions]

​@@leonardobleda6699 Around a decade ago there has been a sort of Muay Thai crusade against Pahuyuth. There are still gigantic posts on reddit and SEA martial arts groups explaining the situation and exposing their lies. Their influence nowadays is little, Muay Boran has bigger problems, so there is no need to make that video. Besides lies and historically altered facts, at least the Pahuyuth guys kinda raised some critical thinking on some Muay Boran myths, compared to other qualified masters who still blindly believe without questioning.

[@johntellipier118]

Pahuyuth had a good library which he drew from. He was not the master of anything especially in Muay and Muay Thai. He frabricated and recreated based on his book collection. it was people like Alex Tsui, Leung Ting and many others who bolstered Pahuyuths claims. Pahuyuth was mostly involved in weapons(Krabi Krabong) and he was trying to expose what he thought was misrepresentation to cover his own lies. Its a gross misunderstanding between physical education and modern forms vs the old forms. Thats what is still missing. Their school never produced any instructors, fighters or anyone of note despite teaching for like decades.

[@ahmedpsnb]

Like silat a lot of weapons defense bullshido, I m silat instractor... knife, machete defense is very dangerous and a 99% of styles are fake and useless in real situation.

[@kiritsugu5763]

Agreed but we use all of knife and weapons defense only for demo though in my country

[@วิชชากรสุขวัฒน์]

Real Muay Boran was formless like water (Bruce Lee)

[@GaawutProductions]

That's actually true, masters encouraged fighters to develop their own techniques. Styles were not enclosed in rigid systems like nowadays.

[@วิชชากรสุขวัฒน์]

@@GaawutProductions That mean.... Muay Boran was the first JKD before bruce lee even born

[@43sh240]

Where i can read these books? I mean how can i get the sources you are relying on.

[@GaawutProductions]

In my book "Muay Boran: Historically Accurate" there is a bibliography with all the sources. Most of them are in Thai and at least half a century old, so getting your hands on them would be extremely difficult. I will share the list on my website so that everyone can research independently. Baeprien Muay Thai is the only one I've translated and made easily available as it is probably the most important work in Muay Boran literature, I recommend to start from it.

[@43sh240]

@GaawutProductions ok i will try to get the document. How can I buy your book? Is it available on Amazon in India?

[@43sh240]

@GaawutProductions got it.. Got the book in Amazon.

Can u do a video on similarities between karate and muay boran

Unfortunately I don't have enough knowledge about Karate to do that video.

[@blacktortoise84]

just to put your info into context, what makes you the expert of muay boran?

[@GaawutProductions]

I've been practicing the art for about a decade, published the first translation of the first Muay Boran book ever published, researched the martial arts literature in Thailand from the 19th century to the 20th century, collaborated with various Thai masters and researchers which shared their info with me, and when possible I include the source of my statements so that you can check by yourself, as I'm not distorting history like others do. I'm not a master because I never did the cerimony, I'm not interested in representing the art, I just share historically accurate information. Still, it's not like I know everything about the matter.

[@thunderkatz4219]

I use okinawan karate when i started Muay Thai and it worked in sparring and i realized because a lot of okinawan karate techniques are illegal in muay thai and i knew okinawan karate inspired muay thai
