Although I couldn't find an entry for this in a dictionary, I know that it exists. A term for
athletes who
compete in a sport simliar to
boxing but which permits the use of the
legs for fighting as well.
Also a movie staring
Jean-Claude Van Damme about two brothers who are kickboxers. They travel to
Taiwan, where the older brother is defeated and partially
paralyzed by a
vicious and
evil fighter named "
Tiger"
Tong Po. The younger brother, Jean-Claude, seeks revenge on Tong Po and, with the help of an
eccentric trainer, he learns the art of
Muiy Tai fighting and defeats Tong Po in an exciting final match. If you like
slow motion karate, you should see this movie.
