On the evening of November 4th, Boqiu fought again in the naked boxing event BKFC and had a showdown with his friend "King of Tricks" Shanchai. The bout was held in Thailand and was played under gloveless Muay Thai rules, with a two-minute round and a total of five rounds. In order to ensure the enjoyment of the game, the hugging time is limited, and only 3 seconds are allowed for both sides to hug.

Boqiu has two professional kickboxing bouts this year, a draw with Ruki Anan at RIZIN in May, and an abandonment against Yasuhiro Shiroto in September, when an accidental headbutt was abandoned. Shanchai has been fighting in the battle of Thailand in recent years, and this year he has achieved 2 wins and 1 draw, and since November 2014, Shanchai has been unbeaten in major competitions for 9 consecutive years, and has refreshed his unbeaten streak to 70 games, which is staggering.
Now the 41-year-old Boqiu and the 43-year-old Shanchai are no longer in peak form, and both of them, who are friends, have said that they will go all out in this game. And the rules of the game stipulate that if there is no winner between the two sides in the five rounds, an extra leg will be played. Since Boqiu has been fighting at 70 kg for many years, and Shanchai is fighting at 65 kg, this match will also use the protocol weight of 68.5 kg, which is a test for Boqiu's recovery after weight loss.
At the beginning of the game, Shanchai played very actively, and showed no mercy to his old friend Bo Woo. As the game progressed, Boqiu gradually got into the groove, and the offense became more and more fierce. Boqiu, who has an advantage in strength, relies on sharp leg sweeps to kick many times and is tired of coping. Due to the time limit for the hugging and grappling in this match, there is not much time for the two to fight inside skills.
Although Shanchai is 43 years old, he still showed cool techniques such as flying knees and sacrificial kicks in the ring, but they were all struck to defuse. In the end, the two sides fought for five rounds, and Boqiu successfully won the game, and also let his good friend suffer the only defeat in 9 years.
In January 2024, Boqiu will also have a boxing match with former world boxing champion Pacquiao, which can be described as a very tight schedule. For many heroes who have been paying attention to Boqiu since the old K-1, they have undoubtedly witnessed the growth of a legendary superstar. Ladies and gentlemen, do you think Boqiu can become the first person in Thai martial arts history?
