Muay Thai’s REAL History (From Ancient Battlefield to Modern Sport)

Описание: #MuayThai #MuayBoran #MartialArtsHistory

Where did Muay Thai really come from? How is it different from Muay Boran?
If you’ve ever tried to understand the true history of Muay Thai, the difference between Muay Boran and modern Muay Thai, or whether the legends of ancient Siamese warriors are real, this video breaks it all down.
Most people know Muay Thai as the Art of Eight Limbs, but the real story — from early battlefield traditions to the Ayutthaya kingdom, to Thailand’s global rise in kickboxing and MMA — is far more fascinating than the myths.

In this deep dive, we look at what Muay Thai actually looked like centuries ago, how it evolved, and why it became one of the only Asian martial arts to successfully transition from battlefield to modern combat sport.
