Myanmar Traditional Boxing
(MTB) competitions. MTB is one of the ancient martial arts systems of
Myanmar. MTB just started to become popular starting at 1990s, but it
has been in Myanmar for thousands of years. MTB is used to be
known as
Burmese Boxing.
To spell out the Burmese tongue in English: "Myanmar Yoya
Letwhayte."
These are the rules in MTB competitions:
Gloveless fights: no boxing gloves, but hand wrapping (optional).
Anything is allowed while standing up, including head butts, elbow,
knees, kicks and slams.
No judges.
No striking while the opponent is down
One three-minutes break allowed during the fight
You have to knock out your opponent to win. Knock downs don't matter. No
point fighting like western boxing, no one is keeping scores.
You can run around, but you can't hide!
Ninety Five percent of the fights end with someone KO.

Your martial arts collection is not
complete without MTB fights from Arts of Ancient Wisdom!
MTB warriors use all kinds of
bone-breaking strikes, dashing, flying attacks, clinching techniques,
and unique slam down methods not present in other martial arts
systems—not even Muay Thai. Myanmar Traditional Boxing is most similar
to Muay Thai, but there are huge differences in techniques, mentality,
and principles. MTB is more realistic and better. Thai business
industries have been falsely but successfully promoting their Muay Thai
competitions as if they were big deals before the 1990s. The truth came
out to the world afterward. Thai warriors have been on an endless losing
streak to Myanmar warriors in these publicly documented martial arts
competitions.
Letwhayte (MTB) Strikes
MTB warriors are unique with their natural body weapons, such as fists,
shins, head, elbows, knees, insteps, heels, and forearms. All these body
parts of the warrior are lethally hardened like metal hammers. When they
strike, they strike to break bones.
Unique Letwhayte Dashing and Flying Attacks
MTB competitions are the only martial arts competition packed with
non-stop high-energy movements. These unique movements along with MTB
strikes make MTB what it is—the best and most realistic martial arts
system in present.
Technical MTB Clinches
MTB warriors use unknown clinching methods and principles that are not
known in today’s Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) world.
MTB
Slam Downs
MTB warriors use unique spectacular slam downs only present in MTB
competitions in the world.
