Muay Thai Kickboxing
Muay Thai is a combat sport from Thailand that
uses stand-up striking along with various clinching
techniques. It is similar to other Indochinese
kickboxing systems, namely pradal serey from
Cambodia, tomoi from Malaysia, lethwei from
Myanmar and muay Lao from Laos. Descended from
muay boran, muay Thai is Thailand's national
sport.
Muay Thai, like boxing and various forms of
kickboxing, is recognised as a very effective
striking base within MMA, and is very widely
trained among MMA fighters. Fighters (some of
whom have won titles) such as Anderson Silva,
Wanderlei Silva, Mauricio Rua, Thiago Silva,
Alistair Overeem, Jose Aldo, Amir Sadollah,
Gina Carano, Cristiane Santos employ a broad
range of tactics born of muay Thai. Countless
other mixed martial artists have trained in
the art, and it is often taught at MMA gyms
as is BJJ and Wrestling.
