1988: Wai Po Tang (Wing Chun) vs. Muay Thai

http://www.martialartinstitute.com/t...n_thailand.htm

sounds basically like a Wing Chun guy went to learn Muay Thai and did good on his first match doesnt really sound like he used Wing Chun at all

1960's: Wong Yam Chun(Wing Chun) vs. Muay Thai
winner Wong Yam Chun

cant find anything on this at all.
