Former Openweight Lethwei world champion
performing his Yay 😳🙏🏽🔥
“The clapping gesture is called the and is traditionally done by Lethwei fighters to challenge their opponents with honor and courage. It comes from the birds of prey and mimics the clapping of the wings.
The is the fight dance ritual. “Yay” simply means dance in Burmese language. It is done before the fight to showcase your skills and experience. It is also performed at the end of the fight as a victory dance or by both fighters in case of a draw in traditional rules..The more fluid the Yay is, the more skilled a fighter is deemed to be. Every Yay is different.” Text via

Lethwei is the national sport of Myanmar and has been around longer than all modern combat sports.
The first recorded existence of Lethwei dates back to the Pyu Empire, which ruled from 2nd-century BCE to mid-11th century. It is known that Lethwei was successfully used by ancient Myanmar armies in wars with bordering countries.
During ancient times, matches took place in a sandpit and were for entertainment purposes only. Fighters would wrap their hands in h**p or gauze and there were no draws or point system - the fight continued until one of the participants were unconscious.
