Boxing Kicks
Posted by Nick
Sorry for the delay in posting. I was in Bangkok, Thailand, attending a conference for about 10 days. While there, I was fortunate enough to have ringside seats for Thai kickboxing, a real treat. Speed, courage, blood, you name it, it was on display. I also went high up in the rafters into the area where fight fans are gambling on the bouts like they're trading cattle futures. It was nuts. There's not much of a tech angle, but it was cool nonetheless.
