Kickboxing has a long history in Thailand and is the country’s national sport. An evening ringside at a Muay Thai event is a must for any sporting enthusiast traveling to Thailand.
Traditional Muay Thai practiced today, varies slightly from the ancient art, and the only similarity to western boxing is that the fighters wear gloves. Muay Thai is also known as the ‘science of the eight limbs’ as master Muay Thai fighters are able to strike using eight different points of contact including the hands, shins, elbows and knees.
