The Nationals, 2007

I just added some photos to the new photo gallery. They are from “The Nationals,” the annual tournament for Cambodian fighters and by far the biggest fight event of the year. In November 2007 some 1,200 fighters participated over 10 days of fighting. While most competed in pradal serey about 50 guys competed in Western boxing, maybe more. In the early days, the fights started about 3 p.m. and went until 11 or later — it’s an incredible volume. From Paddy’s gym, Siem Reap Sunin got a gold medal in Western boxing at 60kg, and Bunthoeun won a bronze medal in pradal serey at 57kg.

  3. I am from Philippines and will travel to Cambodia this coming April 12-25. I have been to Cambodia last year (November) for some work but due to lack of time, I failed to watch Pradal Serey live game. This time I will return to Cambodia just for holiday. Is there any live games that I can watch? its not necessary a big game, even small game can do.

    Appreciate for your kind reply.
