==Background==
Le was born in Saigon, South Vietnam (now Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam). In 1975, a week before the Fall of Saigon, Cung Le and his mother Anne left Vietnam by helicopter under heavy gunfire. Le's father stayed in Vietnam and was caught as a prisoner.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UFC Fight Night 48 video: Emotional Cung Le on his escape from Saigon and growing up without a father )〕 After a few months in a refugee camp in the Philippines, Le ended up in San Jose, California, where early discrimination and bullying inspired him to learn martial arts. His mother enrolled him in Tae Kwon Do classes at the age of 10. Le began wrestling competitively at age 14 after being inspired by Sylvester Stallone´s ''Rocky'' and earned All-American honors in his junior year of high school. He went on to wrestle for West Valley College in Saratoga, California, and won the California Junior College State Championship in the 158 lb weight class in 1990 also earning junior college All-American honors. Le also is practiced in a variety of martial arts such as Judo, Kuntao and Sambo. He began training in Sanshou and kickboxing around age of 19 because it complimented his Tae Kwon Do and wrestling background. Le held a professional kickboxing record of 17-0 and is a three-time world champion in kickboxing.
