PETALING JAYA: Fancy watching Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Moktar Radin and Puncak Borneo MP Willie Mongin slug it out in a sanctioned fight? Malaysians may get a chance to do so, if a martial arts and fitness centre owner has his way.

Team Karabaw Sabah owner Rayner Kinsiong says he is willing to open his gym in Sabah to allow the two East Malaysian parliamentarians, who clashed verbally in the Dewan Rakyat on Tuesday (Aug 7), to settle their differences.

“When I heard that Mongin challenged Bung to a fight, I was excited.

“I want to provide a proper sanctioned fight event for them,” said the former SEA Games karate gold medallist and state muay thai coach, whose gym is located in the International Technology & Commercial Centre Panampang.

Rayner, who is currently in Bangkok for the Muay Thai Youth World Championship, told The Star in an interview that he would schedule the fight to be held in October to allow both Bung and Mongin time to prepare for the fight.

“I want to give them time to train like real fighters,” he said, adding that he would dub the fight 'Ultimate Beatdown Borneo: Bung vs Willie'.

“And for this event, there would be a proper reference, fighting ring and rules just like a boxing match,” said Rayer.

He said that the tickets would be sold for to the public, with 50% of the sales donated to charity.

It was reported that Bung had challenged Mongin to a fight during a ruckus in Parliament on Tuesday (Aug 7).

Mongin then asked Bung on Twitter later the same day to name a time and place for a showdown.
