• “Mongkhon wearing”
• Wearing Prachiat (armband) as a talisman to protect the boxer.
• Khat Chueak or wrap the fists with ropes
“In addition to Muay Thai’s great
weapons like fists, feet, knees and
elbows, the use of hemp rope or
solid unbleached cloth soaked
with flour to wrap boxers’ hands
and arms, called “Khat Chueak”
can maximize the harmful effects
of the tactics because just a few
fists near the opponent can cause
bleeding.”
