Seni Tempur, sometimes refered to as Pelangi Boxing, is a combat sport that used striking, Throws, submissions, and is unique for its inclusion of headbutts. Originially a group of loosely related martial arts practiced throughtout the Pelangi-speaking world, it under went substantial changes and drew from global influences during the colonial period in Southeast Coius. The modern rule set was formulated by the All-Pelangi Sports and Athletics Conference in 1962, based on a form of the sport originating in Surubon. Seni Tempur has its origins in jacket wrestling practiced in the region. Pelangi warriors would traditionally wear a thickly padded jacket made of Abacá fibers, and Leather. this became the basis for the traditional uniform, the baju perang a thick abaca fiber jacket, and the kaki percuma a pair of loose abaca fiber shorts, tied down with a thick rope belt called a Tali. In recent years these traditional outfits have been suplamennted by modern alternatives, typically in most sactioned bouts, a competitor will wear a Uwagi based jacket, as well as an Obi, and a pair of western style boxing shorts.

Modern Seni Tempur can trace its origins to Surubon, where a variant of the sport was practiced since the pre-Agudan period. During the Guallican colonial period Seni Tempur was influenced by western boxing and Savate, and Taekwondo which was introduced by Ansene workers. During the Mandatdom period, other forms of popular combats sports were introduced, Judo, and Jiu-Jitsu would become popular forms of sport, the Grande Asterians would introduce Vale Tudo, and Luta Livre which had a significant impact on the development of the sport. The sports rules were formalized by Jako Katamso, Sudhar Bowo, and Adhemar Magalhães-Teixeira between 1949 and 1962 while the three men ran an illegal sports betting racket through their ownership of the Southeast Coian Personal Combat Federation.

Today Seni Tempur has gained worldwide popularity, events are held globally in multiple venues each year, with several amatuer and semi-pro leagues forming in Coius, Eculea, and both Asteria Superior and Inferior. Professional Seni Tempur is a nearly $870 Million a year industry, Concentrated primarily in the Brown Sea where it both originated and is most popular. The Brown Sea Seni Tempur Athletic Association (BSSTAA) is the largest of the international leagues.
