Ah, Thailand. The land of Thai. The land of flashy neon lights, discothèques, go-go dancers, and of course, Mauy Thai boxing. Some of Thailand's most popular destinations are like the dirtier, meaner, uglier long-distant cousins of Las Vegas. In fact, they can make Vegas seem like Disneyland in comparison. They've got the games, the girls, the fights, the crime, and all the charm of the third-world... they are true sin cities. Travel to one of these places and you'll find narrow streets lined with open-spaced bars packed with women, tourists, and with every so few of them, two dudes fighting it out in a boxing ring. Being the birthplace of Muay Thai and the inspiration of mixed martial arts you couldn't expect anything less. But it seems Thailand has turned it up a notch. Watch as these fighters beat the living shit out of each other where they stand. It's a little WWE for my taste, but badass nonetheless. If it were me, it would be knuckles dipped in glue and glass. Now that would be a fight.
