Legal Strikes
1. All Kicks and Punches are allowed.
2. Knees are allowed only below the shoulder line (No strikes are allowed to the groin or joints -Knees- of the leg)
3. In TRUE Muay Thai as with these rules, FLASH KNOCKDOWNS where the knocked down fighter rises up immediately after being knocked down are NOT COUNTED AS A KNOCKDOWN OR STANDING 8 COUNTS.
4. ELBOW STRIKES (except as specified as above)
5. Clinching is allowed as long as 1 fighter is ACTIVE WITHIN the clinch. If there is inactivity for a period of 3 seconds, the referee will break the fighters.
6. NECK WRESTLING: If in a clinch with arms around each others shoulder, as to deliver or defend from an elbow strike, twisting the opponent using the upper body in such a way that you will fall to the ground is allowed. By using neck and shoulder manipulation, you can spin and throw/dump an opponent to the canvas without using any part of your body as a barrier. This is fully legal.
7. PLOWING: Fighters are allowed to catch their opponent’s leg and take 1 step forward. After 1 step, the fighter holding the leg must STRIKE before taking a second step or more or let go! You can "dump" a person if you catch their leg and throw it back towards them causing them to fall backwards but must do so within 2 steps. You can also catch under their knee while they are doing a swing knee and topple them over backwards but must do so within 2 steps.
8. LEGAL TRIP: If you position your foot next to your opponent and twist them over your foot you must clear the leg as your opponent falls or it is an illegal trip. An athlete CAN spin or pull an opponent over the inside or outside of the leg and dump him on the ground. However the leg being used to manipulate and dump the opponent to the ground can NOT stay in that position as the opponent goes to the floor. If it is set and stays in that position, that too is an illegal throw (tripping). In other words, the leg must clear immediately after the opponent is pulled or tripped over the knee. Clear means that the leg must be moved out of the way BEFORE the opponent hits the canvas. This means skipping the leg or slightly jumping to the side (as long as it is moved from the original position). Strangely, this means an athlete can trip over a leg but must move the tripping leg while the opponent falls to the ground, or it will be deemed illegal and called a trip.
Additional illegal strikes and moves for kick boxing
1. No throws
2. No Spiking downward elbows as well as rising elbows.
3. Taking an opponent around the waist with both arms and twisting them off balance so they will fall.

5. It is considered an Intentional foul when a fighter plans, with the sole intention, of falling on top of their opponent to either strike with their knee or to intentionally hurt their opponent, by making it look like an accident
6. ILLEGAL TRIP: If you position your foot next to your opponent and twist them over your foot it is a illegal trip.
