No difference at all. The 3 arts do jabs,right cross,uppercuts,hooks(to body and head) however in Muay Thai unlike the other arts you mentioned we also use our elbows for striking.

Besides the elbow in MuayThai the only other difference is the way we do our round house kicks and the way a kickboxer does theirs and then there is boxing that has no kicks.
