Muay Thai is a popular combat sport that originated in Thailand. It is also known as Thai boxing or the science of eight limbs because it uses not only fists and feet but also elbows, knees, and shins. The history of Muay Thai dates back to the 16th century when it was used by Thai soldiers during warfare.

Over time, Muay Thai fight evolved into a competitive sport with organized fights taking place in stadiums across Thailand. One of the most famous fighters from this period was Nai Khanom Tom, who fought his way to freedom after being captured by the Burmese army. His victories earned him respect from both his captors and fellow Thais, making him a national hero.

Another legendary fighter who contributed to the development of Muay Thai was Samart Payakaroon.
