Thai Boxing Comes to Macau

East Asia Dome Hosts Fight Bout

Dear readers, accept my unconditional apologies for not “sounding the trumpet” the past days. I’m away from the office on a little R&R, thus I’ve been slightly neglectful of my obligations to you. We drew winners in the blog contest last week. Check them out on the contest entry page. While away, I had my mate AH go check out the Thai boxing duel. Here’s what he had to say.

Managed to get some complementary tickets to see the ‘Fury in Macau’ Kick boxing event held at the Macau East Asian Games Dome in Taipa last weekend (2nd June).

Excellent event!

Several kick boxing bouts where spread out over the evening with plenty of supporting entertainment to keep eyes and ears occupied. The boxers originating from Thailand, Australia, China, etc were generally evenly matched providing an entertaining display of kick boxing skills and aggression with plenty of knock downs and the occasional KO! (No pantomime antics here, this was the real thing!). A knowledgeable crowed ensured the atmosphere reflected the nature of the event and kept everybody on the edge of their seats.

A slick production, well worth seeing if it happens again.

Word of warning: Make sure you arrange transportation home before you go; there isn’t a great deal of public transport around the East Asian Games Dome last thing at night.

It’s me again… AH sure describes a good event. I was surfing on YouTube in the arvo and came across a few videos posted by fight fans who also attended the event. This one has a few good moments…
