The Professional Boxing Association (PBA) regulates Muay Thai fighter safety to the same high standards it upholds in other PBA-sanctioned combat sports, ensuring that fighters are medically fit to compete in PBA-sanctioned Muay Thai events. All PBA-sanctioned Muay Thai events must adhere to the PBA Rules of Muay Thai. By applying for a PBA license, all applicants acknowledge the inherent risks associated with Muay Thai, including the potential for serious injury or, in rare cases, fatalities.
