The benefits of learning and Muay Thai rules

Most Muay Thai fights consist of 5 3-minute rounds with 2 minutes of rest between each round. As the fight begins, both fighters will try to knock out their opponent using their fists, feet, elbows, knees, and legs to win the fight. 

 

If someone knocks out their opponent, the fight ends and the referee stops the fight due to the inability of the opponent to continue.
