Umm... it's wrong to think that the Thai renamed the Khmer boxing style... it is more likely that through the various wars in their past they learned and built upon one another's fighting style... it's very biased to say that the Thai stole the Khmer style or that the Khmer are trying to take credit for the Thai style.. because it is essentially the style of Indochina through the various conflicts... but I guess it's easier for us humans to look at it from a biased point.

I think it's great that Thais get all the credit for thier part in spreading Khmer Boxing and renaming it Muay Thai! Khmers for some reason are always in the backdrop and never the forefront in asian subjects and Western popularity esp. compare to Thailand. - Is it because Thai food is more favorable with Western Cultures? Or is it the women on the city streets and clubs of Bangkok thats westerners find favorable and easy? Or is it that Cambodia has been through communism, genocide, and repression for so many decades and we are back in the shadows again? I guess it can be a number of reasons. But I surely believe that Khmers should take credit (since it is true they invented it) and be equal partners in calling kickboxing Khmer boxing or to be fair lets call it Khmer Muay boxing? Eh?

Very well done, I enjoyed watching it. I have to admit though, I don't know much about Khmerboxing and how it differs with Muay Thai. But i'm looking forward to learning more.
