But then, when it comes down to it, all fighters want to been known as the best, or when it  appears to be a life or death situation,  then they all want to be known as the baddest dude around,  with the don't mess with me approach.

 Thailand was once part of a vast empire incorporating parts of Indonesia and the Philippines. It is speculated by many martial artist that Thai boxing came from a mixture of Chinese empty hand fighting and  Indonesian Silat.  However, the fierce Thais developed it into an art of unparalleled power and brutal efficiency. The primary arts of Thailand are Muay Thai,  Chaiya Boxing (southern Thailand),  Muay Chao Khuerk,  Lerd Rit (Military style) and Krabi Krabong,  the Thai weapons system.
