Muay Thai Styles Explained: Muay Bouk

In the second of our “Muay Thai Styles Explained” series, we take a look at the most exciting and entertaining fighting style: Muay Bouk.

A Muay Bouk is an aggressive fighter who moves forward constantly, putting pressure on his opponent and rarely backs away. Fights involving a Muay Bouk are explosive, often brutal and always entertaining. Muay Bouks enjoy using all weapons, especially punches, elbows and low kicks to grind down on their opponents, while putting themselves under direct fire taking hits.

Muay Bouks are durable fighters with a ton of stamina and heart. They will hit and get hit and still keep moving forward. They will trade blow for blow until someone hits the canvas. It is always a war with Muay Bouks and that is what makes them fan-favorites with fight fans.
