It seems  like all of Koh Tao showed up to see the super-charged fights. All of  our professional Muay Thai trainers were successful in their fights with  people from throughout Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>For those who aren&#8217;t familiar,  Muay Thai is virtual rite of passage for many young Thai men who train  from an early age to gain not only fighting skills and conditioning, but  responsibility, discipline and respect for their opponents. We usually  highlight two local island boys who train hard and want a chance to  practice their art in front of\u00a0 the rest of the island&#8217;s residents. The  lucky two kicked off the card with a great fight which saw them both  perform admirably and with honor. They took it very seriously and were  rewarded with a rousing ovation from an appreciative audience.
