It started of as Pranjibara (which means thunder clasped hand) and was brought to Thailand by Brhamans in the first place.

The discipline of Muay thai is as much spirtual as it is physical that is why both opponents bow to one another and also do the cereominal dance. The movements practiced in Muay thai resemble what of Kali and Veshnu as well as the other Arahats whom strike yogic poses as well.

By the way Thai yoga has been around for 3,000 years as well. The reason for this was because India and Thailand had a very strong connection of trade not only influence of religion and indigenous factors as well. How you people come up with the history of these things is almost unbearable! Pick up a book do some research and use your god given common sense.
