This movie was shot by the Lumières Brothers in July 1896 in London at the Sydenham Crystal Palace park. It is originally described as "Javanese wrestlers", but based on the dress of the two persons involved, it is improbable. Most likely, this video shows two Burmese boxers. They were possibly part of the 1896 India and Ceylon Exhibition, an infamous human zoo.
Some things to keep in mind about this video:
-We do not know the nature of the fight being presented. Is it friendly sparring, some sort of practice or demonstration?
-We do not know the skill of the boxers. Are they experimented, novices?
-While this is quite probably Burmese boxing, it is only one form of it. It is unlikely that only one style or one set of rule existed at this point in time.
