At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a boxer in the north who had a short temper and was arrested for killing a thug. At that time, the verdict for homicide was either death or life imprisonment. Fortunately, he had good friends and some influence, so he was sentenced to 8 years in pure burial imprisonment.

The prison where the boxer is being held is located in a forest on the outskirts of the town, and his window is right in front of a number of large trees on which monkeys often hop around and play. He was amazed by the strange antics of the monkeys, so he focused on observing the animals every day. He carefully studied the movements of the monkeys in various situations, and after a few years, he was able to quickly distinguish between the different characteristics of each monkey.

After classifying and studying the monkeys' fighting skills, dexterity, and foot movements, he found that these movements had similarities with the martial arts boxing techniques he had practiced since childhood. So he decided to combine the monkey's movements with the boxing he was practicing.

The end of incarceration marked a turning point in the development of monkey boxing. Out of his love for the Monkey King in the classical ** "Journey to the West", the boxer named this unique set of boxing techniques after the character of Monkey King.
