These two boxers, Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson represent two different techniques of boxing and the society. Ali displayed his natural gift of the game, articulate and an enthusiast boxer, a champion in and out of the boxing arena, whereas Tyson portray, again and again, a blurred, street thug who won in the boxing game but lost in the eyes of the public. Muhammad Ali came into the boxing scene by winning a gold medal during the 1960 Olympics in Rome, Italy. Boxing critics and the public were not in favour of his boxing skills, nor were they of his behaviour. They believe Ali was self-promoting himself with this phrase “I am the greatest” and disliked the dramatically portraying himself to his opponent and the public for an upcoming fight “Float like a butterfly sting like a bee.” They view him with disbelief on his connection with the Nation of Islam and changing his slave name from Cassius Clay to his current name Muhammad Ali, who strongly against the segregation and the injustice to African-Americans.

A native of the Ayeyarwady Delta - the area which was struck by Cyclone Nargis in May 2008 - he first took interest in lethwei after witnessing a fight in a village.
Respect “Respect”, respect has always been always a big thing in my city, respect for those who were better, stronger, for those whom you feared. In my case Cass the Broken was who I feared, he was bigger, stronger and sometimes even smarter. But I had one thing he didn’t, humility. Humility from getting beaten in a fight when my enemy towered over me victorious and from that came fear of losing again and from that fear came anger. That anger drove me to where I am now and will fuel me to my victory, but now let me tell you the story of how I got back to the top to defeat my enemy.
