"THE THAI BOXING ARENA."

00:00:26.958 --> 00:00:30.583
It's the one sport where
you decide to sacrifice your body.

00:00:31.333 --> 00:00:34.333
You take on boxing as a sport
to get money in return

00:00:34.833 --> 00:00:36.958
to support yourself and your family.

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:41.458
It's the one sport where you can feel
it could open doors for you.

00:00:42.333 --> 00:00:45.000
With Thai boxing… there's hope.

00:00:49.416 --> 00:00:52.000

Get closer, Wichian!

00:03:13.166 --> 00:03:14.000
Fight.

00:03:19.750 --> 00:03:20.916
Get closer!

00:03:28.166 --> 00:03:29.333
Go left. Go!

00:03:29.916 --> 00:03:30.958
Good, good, good!

00:03:48.833 --> 00:03:49.916
Kick him! Kick!

00:03:50.500 --> 00:03:53.166
-Where are you going?
-It's okay.

00:03:54.583 --> 00:03:55.583
Ooh!

00:04:04.541 --> 00:04:06.333
Come on, let's go.

00:04:06.375 --> 00:04:07.208
Go!

00:04:09.375 --> 00:04:11.541
He's a knee striker. What do you do?

00:04:11.625 --> 00:04:14.708
Push through. Push out.
Use your feet. Got it?

00:04:14.791 --> 00:04:16.125
Make sure you hit the target.

00:04:16.208 --> 00:04:17.875
Use your knee then your arms to lock him.

00:04:17.958 --> 00:04:20.291
Strike him hard, got it? Okay!

00:04:21.291 --> 00:04:22.125
Fight!

00:04:24.791 --> 00:04:26.625
Let's go! Let's go!

00:04:26.708 --> 00:04:28.541
Show him what you've got! Do it!

00:04:28.625 --> 00:04:30.333
Come on! Get in there!

00:04:31.291 --> 00:04:32.500
Move to the side! Watch out!

00:04:32.583 --> 00:04:34.041
Get in there! Hit him!

00:04:34.625 --> 00:04:36.333
Good! Kick him!

00:04:37.708 --> 00:04:38.916
Push him! Kickhim!

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:40.291
Get closer!

00:04:41.500 --> 00:04:42.708
Move to the side!

00:04:43.833 --> 00:04:47.000
-Hey! Get back!
-Watch out! Yeah!

00:04:48.250 --> 00:04:49.333
Kick him!

00:04:49.416 --> 00:04:50.750
Push him and back off!

00:04:51.416 --> 00:04:54.291
-Push him out! Use your arms!
-Move to the side.

00:04:56.291 --> 00:04:58.833
-Get in there!
-Lock your arms! Hold him!

00:04:58.916 --> 00:05:00.958
-Good. That's it.
-Back off! Back off!

00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:02.833
Push him!

00:05:03.333 --> 00:05:04.458
Push him!

00:05:04.500 --> 00:05:06.208
-That's it!!
-Now back off!

00:05:32.500 --> 00:05:33.625
Hey! You did good!

00:05:34.333 --> 00:05:36.041
Good job, Chian. Good job.

00:05:36.125 --> 00:05:37.791
You can't keep backing away.

00:05:38.833 --> 00:05:40.958
Don't do that again. Hit him.

00:05:41.041 --> 00:05:43.291
You have to hit him hard. Kick him hard!

00:05:43.875 --> 00:05:46.958
You're stronger than him.
Hey! You're stronger, you hear me?

00:05:47.041 --> 00:05:49.416
Fight him. Don't walk away or you're dead.

00:05:50.458 --> 00:05:52.083
Stay focused, okay?

00:05:52.958 --> 00:05:53.791
Go!

00:05:54.875 --> 00:05:56.500
Throw extra punches. Do it! Go! Go!

00:05:59.541 --> 00:06:01.625
-Follow him closely!
-Don't run away!

00:06:01.750 --> 00:06:03.291
To the body! To the body!

00:06:04.125 --> 00:06:06.166
Kick him! Use your right foot!

00:06:06.250 --> 00:06:08.125
-Go to the right!
-Follow him!

00:06:10.666 --> 00:06:13.250
-Go!
-Get out. Use your feet!

00:06:15.291 --> 00:06:17.708
Use your arms!
Lock him in! That's it!

00:06:18.208 --> 00:06:19.041
That's it!

00:06:19.583 --> 00:06:20.875
Go! Go!

00:06:20.958 --> 00:06:21.791
Get out!

00:06:22.291 --> 00:06:23.125
Okay, turn him.

00:06:23.208 --> 00:06:24.916
-Turn him! Turn him!
-Fight!

00:06:26.041 --> 00:06:27.000
Use your legs!

00:08:00.250 --> 00:08:02.583
THE BEGINNING

00:08:03.208 --> 00:08:05.500
How do children
get their start in the boxing?

00:08:06.208 --> 00:08:07.708
More often than not, we find

00:08:09.416 --> 00:08:11.041
those who start boxing,

00:08:12.375 --> 00:08:14.500
most of the children
were living in poverty.

00:08:15.208 --> 00:08:17.333
I was the same way.
My family was poor too.

00:08:17.416 --> 00:08:19.208
WANCHAI PONGSRI, BOXING REFEREE

00:08:19.291 --> 00:08:22.041
Father drove a taxi. My mom was a maid.

00:08:22.125 --> 00:08:23.250
We didn't have money.

00:08:24.291 --> 00:08:27.333
I was ready to do whatever I could
to help my family.

00:08:27.833 --> 00:08:28.958
It gave me pride.

00:08:29.833 --> 00:08:32.666
That... was what made me start boxing.

00:08:32.750 --> 00:08:33.833
I started at ten.

00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.750
SOMJIT JONGJOHOR, FORMER AMATEUR BOXER,
OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST, THAI NATIONAL TEAM

00:08:38.833 --> 00:08:41.916
It's a choice that was made
by people like me from a poor family

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:43.875
and everyone who started young.

00:08:44.375 --> 00:08:48.083
It's the one sport where
you decide to sacrifice your body.

00:08:48.708 --> 00:08:52.166
You take on boxing as a sport
to get money in return.

00:08:52.250 --> 00:08:54.125
to support yourself and your family.

00:08:54.958 --> 00:08:58.958
It's the one sport where you can feel
it could open doors for you.

00:08:59.041 --> 00:09:01.000
With Thai boxing there's hope.

00:09:38.791 --> 00:09:39.625
Chian.

00:09:41.416 --> 00:09:42.291
Take this.

00:09:43.416 --> 00:09:44.500
Study hard, okay?

00:09:48.041 --> 00:09:48.875
Mom,

00:09:49.833 --> 00:09:51.416
I'm going to the gym later.

00:10:42.541 --> 00:10:45.541
Today, we will learn
about Thai musical instruments.

00:10:45.666 --> 00:10:48.166
There are four different types
of Thai musical instruments.

00:10:48.250 --> 00:10:50.333
The first type is percussion,

00:10:50.375 --> 00:10:52.833
and then the second type is wind.

00:10:52.875 --> 00:10:57.208
The third type is plucked string,
and the last type is bowed string.

00:10:57.291 --> 00:10:59.083
These are the most common types.

00:10:59.708 --> 00:11:03.208
Do you know any instruments that
fall into these four categories?

00:11:03.750 --> 00:11:05.791
Anyone? Any instruments?

00:11:06.708 --> 00:11:07.625
What else is there?

00:11:09.125 --> 00:11:11.333
A two-faced drum and…

00:11:40.666 --> 00:11:44.125
Usually, what makes them different,
these poor children,

00:11:44.166 --> 00:11:46.958
they have the strong desire
to help their family.

00:11:47.041 --> 00:11:48.625
That's how children think.

00:11:49.208 --> 00:11:50.458
I work in boxing.

00:11:51.041 --> 00:11:53.750
I see poverty as a sign.
It's what forces them.

00:11:53.833 --> 00:11:57.500
I would ask these kids, "Hey!
Here's the thing, you're poor." You know?

00:11:57.541 --> 00:11:59.250
DAMRONG TASAKO, THAI BOXING COACH

00:11:59.375 --> 00:12:01.041
And, "Do you think you can box?"

00:12:01.125 --> 00:12:03.041
They would say, "Yes, I can!"

00:12:03.083 --> 00:12:05.791
"Can you fight?" "Yes."
Something like that.

00:12:23.875 --> 00:12:24.750
Hello, Coach.

00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:26.916
Go get changed.

00:12:27.416 --> 00:12:28.500
Yes.

00:12:28.583 --> 00:12:29.916
…it depends on the adults

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.458
I think they should
figure out other solutions

00:12:32.541 --> 00:12:34.291
because banning children from boxing

00:12:34.375 --> 00:12:37.250
will surely affect the income
of the children's families.

00:12:37.750 --> 00:12:41.750
As for gambling,
people say that the two are connected.

00:12:41.791 --> 00:12:44.625
For example, if you take a look
at different boxing events,

00:12:44.750 --> 00:12:46.750
there are many childrin's fights.

00:12:46.833 --> 00:12:50.166
Many people ask
why anyone would bet on children.

00:12:50.291 --> 00:12:52.791
Children give their best.
There's no faking it.

00:12:52.875 --> 00:12:54.958
Research says that in these fights

00:12:55.041 --> 00:12:58.208
the unpredictability has become a source
of enjoyment for many.

00:12:58.333 --> 00:13:01.000
It's a part of life
for many people in the countryside.

00:13:01.083 --> 00:13:04.083
Especially the people
who enjoy watching children boxing.

00:13:05.916 --> 00:13:06.750
Yes.

00:13:10.666 --> 00:13:12.791
Focus. Focus. Hey, focus!

00:13:13.416 --> 00:13:14.500
Stay focused.

00:13:19.250 --> 00:13:20.875
You have to turn your shin over!

00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:24.500
Go! Hands!

00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:26.250
Hands! On tiptoe!

00:13:27.291 --> 00:13:28.125
There you go.

00:13:35.958 --> 00:13:37.000
His neck kicks.

00:13:41.875 --> 00:13:42.708
Good!

00:13:47.333 --> 00:13:48.625
More. Again

00:13:54.583 --> 00:13:56.166
Chian, Chian. Measure it.

00:13:56.291 --> 00:13:58.375
The distance. Then use your foot.

00:13:58.458 --> 00:14:01.125
Measure the distance. Use your foot! Yes!

00:14:01.625 --> 00:14:02.500
Measure it!

00:14:02.625 --> 00:14:04.125
Measure it! Your foot!

00:14:05.666 --> 00:14:07.083
There. Do that ten times.

00:14:09.833 --> 00:14:10.708
Focus!

00:14:14.375 --> 00:14:15.375
Okay.

00:14:17.041 --> 00:14:19.875
Again, ten times. Go! Go!

00:14:23.750 --> 00:14:24.583
Good!

00:14:25.958 --> 00:14:27.041
Ten times again.

00:14:32.666 --> 00:14:35.791
I'm Khaosai Galaxy,
also known as Sura Saenkham.

00:14:35.875 --> 00:14:37.250
I'm a former world champion

00:14:37.750 --> 00:14:40.458
in junior bantamweight, 115 pounds.

00:14:42.416 --> 00:14:44.875
When I first went to live in the gym,
training was much harder…

00:14:44.958 --> 00:14:47.416
KHAOSAI GALAXY,
FORMER WBA SUPER FLYWEIGHT CHAMPION

00:14:47.500 --> 00:14:51.458
…because when I was training at home,
running was already enough work for me.

00:14:51.541 --> 00:14:53.458
In the gym, after running,

00:14:53.541 --> 00:14:56.291
I had to kick the sandbag,
practice fighting,

00:14:56.416 --> 00:14:58.250
do the sparring, everything.

00:14:58.750 --> 00:15:00.666
I felt that it was very hard for a kid.

00:15:01.625 --> 00:15:03.625
But I never wanted to give up.

00:15:04.125 --> 00:15:05.833
I never let them know I was tired.

00:15:05.958 --> 00:15:07.166
I never ever complained

00:15:07.666 --> 00:15:10.958
because I told my mother,
"If I do it, I will do my best."

00:16:00.666 --> 00:16:01.458
Higher.

00:16:04.250 --> 00:16:05.750
Tan, stop slacking off.

00:16:05.833 --> 00:16:07.416
You got a match soon!

00:16:11.125 --> 00:16:13.500
One. Two.

00:16:13.583 --> 00:16:14.791
-Louder.
-Three.

00:16:15.500 --> 00:16:16.916
-Four.
-Louder.

00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:17.875
Five.

00:16:18.416 --> 00:16:19.250
Six.

00:16:20.166 --> 00:16:22.041
Seven. Eight.

00:16:22.791 --> 00:16:23.666
Nine.

00:16:24.208 --> 00:16:25.041
Ten.

00:16:25.541 --> 00:16:26.541
Eleven.

00:16:34.625 --> 00:16:38.333
Sometimes, parents will sign
their own children up for lessons.

00:16:38.416 --> 00:16:40.208
Firstly, to learn self-defense.

00:16:40.750 --> 00:16:42.291
Sometimes they like it.

00:16:42.375 --> 00:16:44.375
And when they enjoy Muay Thai

00:16:44.875 --> 00:16:46.958
they might ask the trainer
or the head of the gym,

00:16:47.041 --> 00:16:48.291
"Do you think I can fight?"

00:16:48.375 --> 00:16:53.458
And so, when the trainer or the head of
the gym sees that a kid has potential.

00:16:53.541 --> 00:16:55.833
They will then ask the kid
and then the parents

00:16:55.916 --> 00:16:57.708
if they'll let him fight in the ring.

00:17:29.916 --> 00:17:30.833
Chian.

00:17:31.666 --> 00:17:32.500
Come here.

00:17:40.625 --> 00:17:43.291
There's a fight coming up in two days.
Do you want it?

00:17:44.083 --> 00:17:44.916
I do.

00:17:47.833 --> 00:17:49.083
You have to prepare.

00:17:49.583 --> 00:17:51.208
I'll let you fight in Put's place.

00:17:51.708 --> 00:17:53.375
-Yes.
-You're the same weight, right?

00:17:53.875 --> 00:17:55.000
Yes, I think we are.

00:17:55.583 --> 00:17:58.916
Look, I'll give you 1500 only if you win.

00:17:59.916 --> 00:18:01.750
Yes, Coach. Thank you so much.

00:18:02.625 --> 00:18:03.666
All right. You can go now.

00:18:04.166 --> 00:18:05.041
Thanks, Coach.

00:19:06.458 --> 00:19:09.708
PHUTHORN BOXING STADIUM, BANGKOK

00:19:10.208 --> 00:19:12.291
That's it, Chian. Keep your guard up!

00:19:12.375 --> 00:19:13.958
Use your feet! Come on!

00:19:14.041 --> 00:19:15.375
Use your feet! Your feet!

00:19:16.166 --> 00:19:18.625
Hit him back now! Hit him! Hit him! Yes!

00:19:19.291 --> 00:19:20.125
Hit him back!

00:19:21.625 --> 00:19:22.458
Push out!

00:19:28.791 --> 00:19:30.541
Hit him! To the body. To the body.

00:19:35.583 --> 00:19:36.666
Go up high! Hit him! Hit!

00:19:37.750 --> 00:19:38.875
Hit him!

00:19:40.041 --> 00:19:41.375
KHUNPON WICHIAN

00:19:47.166 --> 00:19:50.083
Now use your arms! Block him.
Block him! Block his legs!

00:19:55.250 --> 00:19:57.291
Chian, move! Don't let him lock you.

00:19:57.750 --> 00:19:59.208
Yes! Use your arms!

00:19:59.291 --> 00:20:01.291
Strike! Strike him!

00:20:01.375 --> 00:20:03.666
Push him out!
Push him out first! Push him!

00:20:05.916 --> 00:20:07.916
Hit! Hit him!

00:20:08.416 --> 00:20:09.500
Uppercut, come on!

00:20:10.125 --> 00:20:12.041
Hey, Chian! Hey, Chian, listen to me!

00:20:14.041 --> 00:20:16.083
I said listen to me, you little shit!

00:20:16.875 --> 00:20:18.041
Keep your guard up!

00:20:21.458 --> 00:20:22.291
Chian!

00:20:28.458 --> 00:20:29.291
Stop!

00:20:34.250 --> 00:20:35.583
Hey, Chian!

00:20:35.666 --> 00:20:37.083
You need to focus, okay?

00:20:37.541 --> 00:20:40.000
Are you listening?
Look at me! Listen!

00:20:40.041 --> 00:20:41.166
Hey! Listen!

00:20:41.208 --> 00:20:43.000
What's wrong with you? Huh, Chian?

00:20:43.041 --> 00:20:44.000
Look at me!

00:20:44.666 --> 00:20:47.166
Look at him! He's a knee striker!
Do you understand?

00:20:47.208 --> 00:20:51.375
Listen! The guy's a knee striker.
Don't let him clinch, that *!

00:20:51.416 --> 00:20:54.125
When he uses his knee,
you hook it and sweep his leg!

00:20:54.208 --> 00:20:56.125
Do you understand me? You hear me?

00:20:56.250 --> 00:20:57.125
All right!

00:20:57.250 --> 00:20:58.916
If you make the same mistakes…

00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:01.000
If you don't listen to what I tell you…

00:21:01.500 --> 00:21:03.291
I'm gonna * deal with you, huh?

00:21:03.375 --> 00:21:04.208
You hear me?

00:21:04.708 --> 00:21:06.750
All right! Get up!

00:21:07.541 --> 00:21:08.458
Go, go, go!

00:21:08.541 --> 00:21:09.916
-Get up!
-Come on!

00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:12.208
-Here. Right.
-Don't give up!

00:21:12.250 --> 00:21:13.291
Knock him out!

00:21:13.375 --> 00:21:14.958
Come on! Get out of there.

00:21:15.750 --> 00:21:18.166
Listen to me. Focus! Focus! Understand?

00:21:18.250 --> 00:21:19.208
All right! Go!

00:21:20.208 --> 00:21:21.041
Come on.

00:21:24.541 --> 00:21:25.958
-Fight!
-That's it!

00:21:26.041 --> 00:21:27.166
Keep your defense up!

00:21:30.375 --> 00:21:31.833
Remember to use your shin!

00:21:37.458 --> 00:21:39.666
Keep the distance and strike!

00:21:41.916 --> 00:21:43.041
Strike!

00:21:44.291 --> 00:21:45.416
Yes!

00:21:52.166 --> 00:21:54.708
Block his punches! Keep your arms high!

00:21:56.791 --> 00:21:58.083
Let's go!

00:22:05.333 --> 00:22:06.875
Push him. Push him out!

00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:22.166
Yes! Yes! Yes!

00:22:23.875 --> 00:22:26.000
That's good! Good job! Good job!

00:22:30.125 --> 00:22:31.166
Let's go!

00:22:31.250 --> 00:22:32.666
Go on! Go!

00:22:38.458 --> 00:22:39.583
Yeah!

00:22:39.666 --> 00:22:41.250
Go for it! Punch him now!

00:22:41.833 --> 00:22:42.916
Yeah!

00:22:57.083 --> 00:22:59.500
Strike! Now back up!

00:22:59.541 --> 00:23:02.916
Strike! Strike! Go! Go!

00:23:04.416 --> 00:23:05.666
PUT FAHMAI, BOXER

00:23:05.750 --> 00:23:08.250
If it's big arenas
like Lumpinee or Rajadamnern,

00:23:09.125 --> 00:23:11.250
I can get paid 10 to 12,000 baht.

00:23:12.083 --> 00:23:14.666
But in local arenas, 4 to 5,000 thousand.

00:23:20.125 --> 00:23:24.958
Because they could use your fee
to make their bets. They count on it.

00:23:25.041 --> 00:23:27.291
That means gambling, more often than not,

00:23:27.375 --> 00:23:30.416
goes hand in hand with
the competition of Thai boxing.

00:23:31.083 --> 00:23:34.666
If you win,
their hunting dog has caught their prey.

00:23:34.750 --> 00:23:36.625
The owner will gladly partake in the meat.

00:23:37.375 --> 00:23:39.208
But when you can't catch their prey,

00:23:39.833 --> 00:23:42.541
the owner, he'll throw you to the dogs.

00:23:43.041 --> 00:23:45.250
That's how I see gambling
and the relationship

00:23:45.333 --> 00:23:47.125
between boxers and the gym leaders.

00:23:51.625 --> 00:23:52.750
Here. Your share.

00:23:53.500 --> 00:23:54.333
Thank you.

00:24:01.208 --> 00:24:02.583
At least you won this time.

00:24:04.166 --> 00:24:06.875
But next time,
I swear if you don't listen to me,

00:24:07.791 --> 00:24:09.791
I'm not gonna have a fight for me again.

00:24:10.416 --> 00:24:11.416
You got that, Chian.

00:24:11.916 --> 00:24:12.750
Yes.

00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:21.250
All right, you can go now.

00:24:25.708 --> 00:24:27.458
Yes, Coach. Thank you.

00:24:40.333 --> 00:24:43.041
What does happen sometimes is that…

00:24:43.125 --> 00:24:45.750
the boxer's pay could actually be higher.

00:24:45.833 --> 00:24:48.416
Like, the head
of the boxing gym might tell him,

00:24:48.500 --> 00:24:52.208
he'd go "Hey! You get 5,000. Or 2,500."

00:24:52.291 --> 00:24:54.416
Sometimes it could be 10,000.

00:24:54.500 --> 00:24:57.541
It depends. But the boxer needs
to accept no matter what the amount.

00:24:57.625 --> 00:24:59.625
He eats and lives with
the head of the gym.

00:24:59.708 --> 00:25:03.125
That also means he has to follow him
and not question what he says.

00:25:04.625 --> 00:25:07.916
No boxer would say,
"Hey, you owe me one more."

00:25:09.250 --> 00:25:10.708
To the leader, no way.

00:25:11.166 --> 00:25:12.916
His conscience won't let him do that.

00:25:25.208 --> 00:25:26.041
Kid.

00:25:33.041 --> 00:25:35.000
You're Wichian, right?

00:26:55.625 --> 00:26:57.208
You don't even look at me.

00:27:02.125 --> 00:27:03.958
I've been here a while.

00:27:04.791 --> 00:27:06.875
And you haven't said a * thing.

00:27:08.375 --> 00:27:10.000
What the * is wrong with you?

00:27:14.458 --> 00:27:15.708
Do you give a shit?

00:27:18.916 --> 00:27:19.708
Come here.

00:27:20.208 --> 00:27:21.333
Come here!

00:27:21.375 --> 00:27:22.500
Come here!

00:27:22.583 --> 00:27:23.708
Let me go.

00:27:26.250 --> 00:27:27.541
You're hurting me!

00:27:30.875 --> 00:27:32.375
-Kim!
-Mom.

00:27:35.625 --> 00:27:37.083
Where the hell have you been?

00:27:49.875 --> 00:27:51.041
Mut, no!

00:27:56.333 --> 00:27:58.541
I asked you where did you go?

00:27:59.541 --> 00:28:00.750
To a boxing match.

00:28:02.250 --> 00:28:03.250
Mmm.

00:28:04.833 --> 00:28:06.291
So you have money?

00:28:08.750 --> 00:28:09.958
I don't. I lost.

00:28:12.416 --> 00:28:13.541
Don't lie to me.

00:28:14.875 --> 00:28:16.208
If you're a loser,

00:28:17.333 --> 00:28:19.166
why fight in the first place?

00:28:21.625 --> 00:28:23.083
Huh? Where is it?

00:28:23.166 --> 00:28:24.750
-The money.
-Don't hurt him.

00:28:24.833 --> 00:28:26.333
-Don't--
-Let go!

00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:28.041
Where's the money?

00:28:31.583 --> 00:28:32.541
Stop it!

00:28:35.250 --> 00:28:36.083
It's mine!

00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:43.833
Chian.

00:28:45.583 --> 00:28:46.583
Get out, Chian.

00:28:48.416 --> 00:28:49.916
Get the * out of my house!

00:28:50.416 --> 00:28:51.458
Go!

00:28:55.125 --> 00:28:56.041
Chian!

00:29:06.166 --> 00:29:08.166
THAI BOXING

00:29:59.625 --> 00:30:01.583
Slow down, Chian. Hey!

00:30:02.375 --> 00:30:04.375
You could choke to death like that, huh.

00:30:04.458 --> 00:30:05.333
Hmm?

00:30:05.416 --> 00:30:06.208
Here.

00:30:07.250 --> 00:30:08.083
Eat up.

00:30:10.500 --> 00:30:11.333
Mmm.

00:30:15.875 --> 00:30:16.708
So, what's up?

00:30:17.625 --> 00:30:19.958
You're still banged up.
You should stay home.

00:30:28.541 --> 00:30:30.458
What? Did your dad kick you out again?

00:30:41.208 --> 00:30:43.166
You want money to help your mom, right?

00:30:44.416 --> 00:30:45.333
Yes, Coach.

00:30:48.250 --> 00:30:51.208
Well, there's a big match next month.
Do you want int?

00:30:51.875 --> 00:30:52.875
I do, Coach.

00:30:55.083 --> 00:30:55.916
Now remember,

00:30:56.666 --> 00:30:58.791
the chance to fight in a match like this

00:30:59.458 --> 00:31:00.458
it's a big deal.

00:31:01.250 --> 00:31:02.875
You have to be a better fighter.

00:31:04.125 --> 00:31:05.666
You have to train harder.

00:31:05.750 --> 00:31:06.583
Yes.

00:31:07.375 --> 00:31:10.500
If you win this time,
you'll get more money than before.

00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:15.833
Eat up.

00:31:18.708 --> 00:31:20.125
Don't inhale your food.

00:31:20.625 --> 00:31:22.375
It's not going anywhere, okay?

00:31:24.333 --> 00:31:25.166
Yeah.

00:31:39.916 --> 00:31:42.041
KHUNPON WICHIAN VS. ARNOND S. WICHAITHONG

00:32:00.708 --> 00:32:02.541
That's it! Get out of it!

00:32:02.625 --> 00:32:03.625
Go!

00:32:04.375 --> 00:32:05.375
He's hitting you, Chian?

00:32:06.166 --> 00:32:07.208
Get out!

00:32:20.750 --> 00:32:22.666
Chian, what do you do?
What do you do now?

00:32:23.166 --> 00:32:25.333
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, come on!

00:32:25.416 --> 00:32:26.333
Faster! Faster!

00:32:26.416 --> 00:32:28.000
Get out! That's too slow!

00:32:28.083 --> 00:32:29.083
Faster, come on!

00:32:30.500 --> 00:32:31.750
Take him down! Yes!

00:32:46.208 --> 00:32:47.375
For every competition,

00:32:48.333 --> 00:32:51.250
I have no doubt
that every boxing gym in this country

00:32:52.125 --> 00:32:54.500
will make sure
their boxer is well-trained.

00:32:54.583 --> 00:32:57.666
No one would let their boxer
get up and fight

00:32:57.750 --> 00:32:59.500
if they are not in ideal condition.

00:32:59.583 --> 00:33:02.333
If it's a big event,
and with a big audience!

00:33:02.416 --> 00:33:03.958
That's how it is.

00:33:10.958 --> 00:33:13.083
Again! Good, good. Guard up.

00:33:13.833 --> 00:33:15.916
He's coming in. He's coming in. Now what?

00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:17.375
Up! Good!

00:33:17.458 --> 00:33:18.583
Stop!

00:33:25.375 --> 00:33:26.958
All right, let me. Go on.

00:33:34.541 --> 00:33:35.375
Go on.

00:33:36.833 --> 00:33:39.208
Is that all you've got, *?
Your fight is coming up!

00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:41.833
Again!

00:33:42.458 --> 00:33:43.458
Kick me! Harder!

00:33:45.875 --> 00:33:47.083
Is that all you've got?

00:33:48.041 --> 00:33:49.708
I thought you wanted to help your mother?

00:33:50.333 --> 00:33:52.375
What's the matter?
Can't you try harder for her?

00:33:52.875 --> 00:33:53.708
Go!

00:33:55.750 --> 00:33:57.500
Harder!

00:33:57.583 --> 00:33:59.875
One, two! Go! Five times.

00:34:01.125 --> 00:34:02.000
Yeah!

00:34:02.083 --> 00:34:04.208
Hey! This is really all you've got?

00:34:04.708 --> 00:34:05.541
Huh?

00:34:06.791 --> 00:34:08.666
Don't you mess around, you little *!

00:34:09.208 --> 00:34:10.375
Two times!

00:34:10.458 --> 00:34:12.375
Ten times!

00:34:16.541 --> 00:34:18.416
A hundred times! Go! Go!

00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:27.208
Harder! Is that it, Chian?

00:34:27.958 --> 00:34:28.958
Come on, *.

00:34:30.708 --> 00:34:31.708
More!

00:34:32.291 --> 00:34:33.125
Come on!

00:34:34.791 --> 00:34:35.750
Harder!

00:34:36.833 --> 00:34:37.666
Chian!

00:34:44.750 --> 00:34:45.583
Hey.

00:34:46.083 --> 00:34:46.916
You okay?

00:34:49.250 --> 00:34:50.791
I think you should take a break.

00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:52.833
Hey.

00:35:01.041 --> 00:35:03.125
WICHIAN

00:35:15.708 --> 00:35:16.541
Hey, Tan.

00:35:17.250 --> 00:35:18.375
Get up here now.

00:35:48.208 --> 00:35:50.541
Now, do you know what that was for?

00:35:51.166 --> 00:35:52.000
Yes.

00:35:52.791 --> 00:35:53.625
Now, sit down.

00:36:03.875 --> 00:36:05.041
The rest of you, remember.

00:36:06.041 --> 00:36:09.458
If you have a match,
and fight as poorly as Tan,

00:36:09.958 --> 00:36:11.375
getting knocked out!

00:36:12.708 --> 00:36:14.541
Get the * out of my gym.

00:36:16.583 --> 00:36:17.416
Chian.

00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:20.708
Get this through your thick skull.

00:36:21.208 --> 00:36:23.375
Do not * embarrass me.

00:36:30.750 --> 00:36:34.333
In the final days before the match,
I was exhausted.

00:36:35.958 --> 00:36:36.791
It was like…

00:36:37.708 --> 00:36:40.791
like I wanted to quit
because training took so much out of me.

00:36:42.166 --> 00:36:44.458
You might not get enough time to recover.

00:36:44.541 --> 00:36:46.416
You might simply not get enough sleep.

00:36:46.916 --> 00:36:50.750
Uh… it's hard to sleep.
There's a lot on your mind before a fight.

00:36:50.833 --> 00:36:54.291
I was like that too,
but I powered through.

00:36:55.416 --> 00:36:57.333
Sometimes, you have to power through.

00:37:06.875 --> 00:37:07.875
Yes, honey?

00:37:11.375 --> 00:37:13.375
I have a big match tomorrow.

00:37:14.208 --> 00:37:15.416
Will you come and watch?

00:37:19.750 --> 00:37:21.500
I can't go. I have to work.

00:37:23.625 --> 00:37:25.125
But take care of yourself.

00:37:28.333 --> 00:37:29.166
Okay.

00:37:31.500 --> 00:37:33.666
And if I win and get paid…

00:37:36.666 --> 00:37:38.083
can we live somewhere else?

00:37:44.125 --> 00:37:45.791
Just do your best, okay?

00:37:48.625 --> 00:37:50.500
And if you can't fight anymore,

00:37:51.375 --> 00:37:53.125
you don't really have to force it.

00:37:53.791 --> 00:37:54.625
Yes, Mom.

00:38:11.708 --> 00:38:12.541
Ready, Chian?

00:38:22.791 --> 00:38:23.625
Hey!

00:38:24.500 --> 00:38:25.625
Listen to me closely.

00:38:26.583 --> 00:38:28.000
I bet a lot of money on you.

00:38:28.791 --> 00:38:30.250
You better give it your all.

00:38:30.958 --> 00:38:32.041
If you win today,

00:38:33.208 --> 00:38:34.833
I'll add 10,000 to your pay.

00:38:37.666 --> 00:38:39.000
But if you lose…

00:38:40.416 --> 00:38:41.458
You saw Tan?

00:38:42.083 --> 00:38:43.250
What? Do you want that?

00:38:46.875 --> 00:38:48.833
All right. Get ready. It's almost time.

00:39:11.250 --> 00:39:13.208
SORASINGH BOXING GYM

00:39:45.875 --> 00:39:48.041
He's a knee striker. So what do you do?

00:39:48.125 --> 00:39:50.791
Push. Push out!
You use your feet. You got it?

00:39:50.875 --> 00:39:51.708
Now, go!

00:39:53.333 --> 00:39:54.458
Fight!

00:39:54.541 --> 00:39:56.541
Keep your distance! Use your shin!

00:40:06.750 --> 00:40:08.125
Use your foot! Come on!

00:40:13.416 --> 00:40:16.041
Push through!
Lock him in with your arms! Come on!

00:40:23.375 --> 00:40:25.250
Don't let him trap you!
You gotta use your foot!

00:40:32.416 --> 00:40:34.541
No, no! Turn him around! Turn him around!

00:40:42.583 --> 00:40:43.666
Hey, watch out!

00:40:43.750 --> 00:40:44.583
Hey!

00:40:52.500 --> 00:40:54.000
Guard up! And use your feet!

00:41:10.291 --> 00:41:12.041
Hey. Good. Good! You did good!

00:41:12.791 --> 00:41:14.541
Good work, Chian. That was good.

00:41:14.625 --> 00:41:15.750
You've got more skill.

00:41:15.833 --> 00:41:18.625
Hey! You're way better than him!
You hear me?

00:41:18.708 --> 00:41:21.125
He buckled when he got hit. He buckled!

00:41:21.625 --> 00:41:23.666
Keep hitting him!
Keep hitting him, and don't stop!

00:41:29.833 --> 00:41:31.125
Remember training.

00:41:32.166 --> 00:41:33.291
Do it just like that.

00:41:33.750 --> 00:41:35.041
Keep hitting him.

00:41:35.125 --> 00:41:36.875
Throw punches. Throw more punches! Go!

00:41:50.750 --> 00:41:52.083
Come on! Push!

00:42:23.791 --> 00:42:25.333
Throw an elbow strike!

00:42:34.041 --> 00:42:34.875
Fight!

00:42:34.958 --> 00:42:36.791
Chian, your punches!
Punch hard!

00:42:38.166 --> 00:42:39.583
Keep punching him!

00:43:18.875 --> 00:43:22.666
I got to watch the tape for that
day. I understood exaclty what happened.

00:43:23.625 --> 00:43:26.083
When gambling is involved,
it has to be sure.

00:43:27.166 --> 00:43:29.250
As soon as the referee signaled the start,

00:43:29.333 --> 00:43:31.791
his opponent ran towards him
and punched non-stop.

00:43:31.875 --> 00:43:32.708
Then the boy…

00:43:32.791 --> 00:43:34.125
He fell backwards.

00:43:34.208 --> 00:43:37.208
The back of his head hit the floor.
He was at the edge of the ring.

00:43:46.166 --> 00:43:47.416
It was like, "Boom!"

00:43:48.250 --> 00:43:50.458
No one could've done anything.
It happened fast.

00:43:51.416 --> 00:43:53.750
People have been saved before,
but not every time.

00:43:54.625 --> 00:43:55.875
His head hit the floor.

00:43:56.375 --> 00:43:58.166
And that was when the kid was unconscious.

00:45:24.500 --> 00:45:26.375
SORASINGH

00:45:30.041 --> 00:45:31.250
You did it, Chian!

00:45:31.333 --> 00:45:34.333
I enjoyed watching you fight!
You fought very well today.

00:45:34.416 --> 00:45:36.500
Hey, get your things. I'll get the money.

00:46:05.708 --> 00:46:09.250
What I will say is I don't think
that this happens to everyone.

00:46:09.291 --> 00:46:10.833
Some get it worse but survive.

00:46:37.041 --> 00:46:39.000
Our lives are predestined. Believe me.

00:46:39.583 --> 00:46:42.041
Everything is.
Including the start and end of life.

00:46:42.541 --> 00:46:44.208
When something happens to one,

00:46:44.291 --> 00:46:48.041
then it doesn't mean the outcome
will be the same for all.

00:46:48.875 --> 00:46:50.208
It's not like that at all.

00:46:50.875 --> 00:46:51.708
No.

00:47:03.500 --> 00:47:06.041
Hey, it's normal to knock someone out.

00:47:22.250 --> 00:47:23.625
You've been getting better.

00:47:24.125 --> 00:47:25.291
I'm watching you.
