History

Muay Thai is a combat sport of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This physical and mental discipline which includes combat on shins is known as "the art of eight limbs" because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, shins, being associated with a good physical preparation that makes a full-contact fighter very efficient.

Muay Thai became widespread internationally in the twentieth century, when practitioners defeated notable practitioners of other martial arts. A professional league is governed by the World Muay Thai Council.

Legends of Muay Thai

Many figures become legends because of a particular skill in the Muaythai art. Like Apidej Sit-Hirun, known as ‘The Champion of Seven Titles’, the most fearful kicker that Muaythai may ever have seen, he once broke his opponent's arm with his kick strike.

His kick arsenal made him famous as he sets the record by holding, at one time, seven welterweight titles of both Muaythai and International boxing, a historic record that still stands.
