In Thailand, many young kids start training and competing in Muay Thai from a very early age.

Some young children who are raised by their family are put into training early on in their life in hopes that they can fight and become a winning competitor that can provide income for the family.

Here, we take a look at one of the Muay Thai fights that ends with a nasty head kick KO. The two young fighters go at it and show some impressive techniques and it all ends with a head kick.

Following the finish, the winner shows a lot of respect. He walks back to his corner and then walks back to the downed opponent and drops down to a bow to the side of his opponent. The downed Muay Thai fighter is eventually brought to his feet and the winner bows to all corners of the audience in attendance.
