Went to Lumpinee Boxing Stadium to check out the Muay Thai fights (thanks JM for hooking it up). It's a super old school arena, which adds to the whole atmosphere. On the 2nd level, gambling is allowed, so it's just as entertaining between rounds, watching the bets being placed using a flurry of hand signals. The energy of the crowd really picks up in the later rounds, as there's more money on the line. I felt like I was in the arena in Bloodsport, expecting Bolo Yeung to come walking out at any moment.
