Bout Classification & Unified Record Standards
Last updated: 28th December, 2025
Muay Thai Records tracks Muay Thai, Kickboxing, and K-1 fights and combines them into a single unified career record for each fighter, reflecting how fighters regularly move between these disciplines and rule sets throughout their careers.
Classifications such as “A Class” can vary significantly between countries based on local laws, making strict separation by discipline or level impractical.
In practice, fighters are commonly introduced with a “combined record” or simply a “fight record” that includes bouts across all of these rule sets.
For this reason, Muay Thai Records includes N Class, C Class, B Class, A Class, Pro, and Pro-Am bouts. These are full-contact, pre-matched contests fought at an agreed weight and decided by a clear win or loss on the night.
Muay Thai Records does not count interclubs, smokers, sparring matches, exhibitions, points or semi-contact events, or junior bouts.
Why We Do This
Classes exist for athlete safety, not to decide whether a fight is “real”.
In Thailand, fighters compete under full rules from a young age and those fights are counted. In many other countries, fighters begin under modified rules due to health and safety standards.
Muay Thai Records applies one consistent standard worldwide.
