Muay Thai Shows
Even if you witnes the incredible spectacle
of Phuket Thai boxing just once, you will never
forget it. Muay Thai in Phuket is a big crowd-puller, but
the sport attracts interest all over Thailand, as it has done for
over 2,000 years.
Traditionally known as the 'science of eight limbs' Muay
Thai, internationally known as Thai boxing, is actually only one
component of an entire system of Thai warcraft which encompasses
weapon training. However it is the unarmed combat facet which has
gained worldwide fame.
The Thai nation has evolved as a tribal people who have
been compelled to defend their country from invaders for countless
centuries. Accordingly this vital combat system has been passed
down from teacher to student for innumerable generations. Muay Thai
involves not only kicking and punching techniques but also knee and
elbow strikes.
Muay Thai contests are held throughout Thailand, at venues
ranging from air-conditioned modern arenas to crude rings set up at
village fairs. The higher profile fights attract a wide fan
following.
