Thai Boxing

By William Patton

Thai Kick Boxing or Muay Thai Fighting

Muay Thai, Thai kick boxing is known as the “Art of Eight Limbs” because of the number body parts that can be used as weapons while fighting.  Thai Boxing is also known throughout the world for its ferocity, athleticism and potentially devastating maneuvers.  Muay Thai is Thailand’s national form of martial art that has become increasingly popular worldwide as seen in West in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).  Kickboxing fights consist of five, 3 minute rounds separated by a short 2 minute break between rounds. The fighters use gloves and brightly decorated shorts and often have symbolic decorated armbands.  Fighters may kick, elbow, knee or punch their opponent and are scored through these methods.  Fighters protect themselves and the other fighter using boxing gloves and taping ankles although severe bodily injury does occur.  Matches take place in a ring, with rope held up by four padded corners similar to a boxing ring.  There is also one referee to ensure safety and fair play.  Prior to the initial fight, the fighters perform a dance were they dance to loud, rhythmic music usually coming from a live band.

 

 

Brief History

Historically, Mauy Thai was traditionaly used in the military setting.  However, the first great upsurge of interest in Muay Thai as a sport, as well as a battlefield skill, was under King Naresuan in 1584 (muaythaifighting.com).  Soldiers, generals and even kings trained in Mauy Thai.   As the story goes, he there was a war between Siam (historical Thailand) and Burma and he was captured.  Given the opportunity to fight one on one for his freedom (losing meant death) with Burma’s best fighter he prevailed and returned back to Siam a hero.  The army used the martial arts technique and it has since been used by subsequent generations as it is the national sport.
Muay Thai and Tourism

Many tourists are interested in seeing the spectacle of the fight nights.  There is however a much more personal way to experience Muay Thai.  It has become increasingly popular to study the sport at academies set up for tourists to learn kickboxing, dive into a physically demanding environment and explore a unique avenue to view a culture. 

 

Many different areas offer training centers to compete at beginner to highest professional level.  Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket and Chang Mai all have academies were it is possible to train for a weekend or a year.  Different gyms offer places to stay, tourist sightseeing and outside activities. 

 

Stadiums in Bangkok
Muay Thai stadiums in Bangkok are the best places to see fights.  There is alcohol served, the prices are fairly inexpensive, betting is encouraged and the scene is very unique.  There are different prices for locals and tourist.  Betting is intense and the fight nights are a spectacle to behold.  Although, the best seats are ringside ($50 USD) the most authentic experience is in the stands with all the Thai people (mostly men) standing, shouting and betting.  The people are quite friendly and respect the foreigner that will join them in the madness in the nosebleed section.

• Lumphini Stadium–Tuesday and Friday nights  (some of my classmates and I went to this one. Very fun)
• Ratchadamnoen Stadium-Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday nights

  16. I’m still in shock and can’t believe I was able to recover my lost Bitcoin. I had invested a significant amount of money in BTC back in 2017. but unfortunately, I lost access to my wallet due to a combination of factors, including a forgotten password and a corrupted wallet file.

    I had tried everything to recover my BTC, from using password recovery tools to seeking help from online forums and communities. However, nothing seemed to work, and I had almost given up hope.

    That was when I stumbled upon a professional BTC recovery service called TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY. I was skeptical at first. but after reading reviews and testimonials from other satisfied customers. I decided to give it a try.

    The recovery process was surprisingly smooth and efficient. The team at the recovery service was highly professional and communicative, keeping me updated every step of the way. They used advanced techniques and tools to recover my wallet and private keys, and within a few days, I had access to my BTC again.

    I was able to recover approximately 90% of my lost BTC, which was a huge relief. I had thought that my investment was gone forever, but thanks to the recovery service, I was able to recover a significant portion of it.

    I would highly recommend TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY to anyone who has lost access to their BTC. Their expertise and professionalism are unparalleled, and they truly care about their customers. I’m grateful for their help and would not hesitate to use their services again if needed.

  25. For years, I have read and seen the advertisements in the mass media about all of the penis enhancement pills and thought that they were all scams or gimmicks. All of the medical sites that I have visited stated that none of the herbal supplements would ever help increase the size of a penis. I got very depressed when I read this, because unfortunately I was not naturally blessed with a penis that was big enough to arouse my sexual partner or past partners. I am a man that is past my sexual prime time and my sexual performance has a lot to be desired. I decided to try Doctor HARRY herbal medicine after all the reading and researching that I have done.I saw a testimony ” Joe” about doctor HARRY Herbal Medicine Since there is a Money Back Guarantee, I gave him a trial. What did I have to lose? I couldn’t believe the results I was seeing after drinking the Natural  Herbal Medicine  and Herbal Soap to rub on  my penis! He sent it to me through UPS courier delivery service . Within about 2 weeks I had a noticeable increase in the girth of my penis. Then after a couple of additional weeks it started to grow in length and I was amazed and very excited.before I finished the drink and the soap my penis had grown an additional two inches. I’ve had a considerable improvement with my sex life and these pills are certainly worth every penny I spent on them! I want to thank Dr HARRY  for the time and effort they have spent on helping people in my situation.I know many are out there who are suffering this problem and they need help, email him.    drharrysolution@gmail.com.    He also cures other diseases like: Painful or Irregular Menstruation.

  30. How do emotions affect your sports betting decisions?
    Emotions play a big role in betting, especially when trying to recover losses or when we are excited about a game. I have made the mistake of betting when I was angry or excited, which ended up making me lose. The secret is to try to make more rational decisions. For example, I use plinko-games1.com to check last-minute odds and make decisions more calmly, without the pressure of the moment. The practice of controlling emotions is essential to avoid hasty bets and more unnecessary risks.
