What happens

Born to Fight (Thai: เกิดมาลุย, Gerd ma lui) is a 2004 Thai action film directed by Panna Rittikrai. It followed Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior, on which Rittikrai served as martial arts choreographer, and featured more of his "no strings attached" stuntwork. Many of the actors in Born to Fight were Thai national athletes. The film is a remake of Rittikrai's 1984 film of the same title. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
