Synopsis
BORN TO FIGHT is one of the biggest and most expensive action films ever produced in the kingdom of Thailand. A hard-hitting martial arts thriller, it brings together the very best athletes Thailand has to offer on one formidable stage.
Deaw (Dan Chupong) is a Special Forces police officer who witnesses the murder of his partner and friend when a drugs bust goes terribly wrong. Disheartened by this tragedy, he decides to join his sister and a troupe of elite athletes on a government sponsored charity event set to take place on the Thai/Burmese border. Everything seems to be going well, and Deaw is once again happy and fulfilled until....
A group of guerillas armed with a nuclear missile take over the sleepy village, holding it hostage. The ransom they demand is the release of General Yang, one of the worlds most wanted drug lords. The clock is ticking. Can Deaw and the athletes rescue the village from the mercenaries? Can they save Bangkok from the imminent nuclear threat?
Watch as Deaw and the Thai National Sports Team kick, punch and flip as they fight their way through a showdown of epic proportions.
