11.MuayBoran: Siamese boxing, also referred to as ‘the science of nine limbs’ because its practitioners use punches, elbows, knee strikes, kicks, and head butts against their opponents (two fists, plus two feet, plus two knees, plus two elbows, plus one head equals nine). A brutal form of hand-to-hand combat, both in the boxing ring and on the battlefield, that frequently claimed the lives of its participants. In muay boran fights, unlike in western boxing, the fighters wear no gloves to cushion their blows and frequently wrap their hands in thick hemp ropes that tear at their opponent’s flesh. Muay boran also incorporates standing grappling: throwing an opponent to the floor is quite legal although grappling on the ground is not. The lack of a ground grappling dimension is due to the fighting style’s direct translation from the battlefields, battlefields strewn with spear-wielding soldiers whose presence necessitated that the only practical strategy for a fighter misfortunate enough to find himself on the ground was to stand up as quickly as possible.
