    How do you pronounce "Cung Le?"

    I assume "Cung" isn't "Kung" or else it would be spelled "Kung." So, what is the "C" in Chinese to English Romanization?

    Or just, how do you pronounce his name?

    Cung Le is a vietnamese name not a chinese name. You would have to get a vietnamese guy to get all the tones...

    Cuz I'm curious. When I'm reading something in a magazine and I see his name I want to know how to say it in my head.

    ESPN 2 rebroadcast one of his fights after the Super Bowl last night. After watching that, I think that his name should be pronounced as "kicks @ss".
