What's the difference between Muay Thai and kickboxing?

Ever wonder why Muay Thai fighters seem to use their whole body as a weapon? Muay Thai lets you strike with fists, elbows, knees, and shins - plus you can clinch and throw from close range - making it way more versatile. Kickboxing sticks mainly to punches and kicks, keeping more distance between fighters. So Muay Thai's basically the "art of eight limbs" while kickboxing is more focused and technical with just four.
