Default Rules

Has anyone got a link to the rules? But I mean a really intricate list going over absolutely everything. I keep hearing things like certain throwsare illegal, etc. But can't find a decent list.

The rules vary depending on the organization. You need to first determine which organization you wish to learn about...

A great explanation of the rules, the scoring and officiating is available at www.singto.co.uk and also at www.MuayThaiOnline. Just search around a little bit and you can find it. I recommend everyone interested in muay Thai read this. It will definitely clear some things up for you.

Know the Muay Thai Rules

The complete boxer must always remember that the winner of a Muay Thai bout is decided according to rules. He must know and strictly follow the rules of the Muay Thai competition.
All effective Muay Thai techniques score

To produce a good score the technique should have a visible effect on the opponent. It is not the number or variety of Muay Thai techniques, but their effectiveness that the judges are looking for, so it is possible to win using one Muay Thai technique exclusively. Judges are looking to award the fight to the strongest fighter. They are looking for evidence of the effect of Muay Thai techniques. And they are looking for mental and physical strength, and technical ability.
Muay Thai scoring rules

A panel of three judges decide at the end of each round if the round resulted in a draw (scores 10:10), a win by significant margin (score 10:9) or a win by undisputed margin (10:8). At the end of the match the score judges add up the points scored and nominate a winner to the referee. If there are three different votes (win, defeat, draw) at the end of the match the verdict is a draw.
Muay Thai rules of dress

Contestants must wear no shirt or shoes. The sacred headband (Mongkon) must be removed on completion of Ram Muay ritual dance, before the start of the bout. The application of any ointment or herb that may be repugnant to your opponent is prohibited. Hands should be wrapped with soft tape not longer than 12 yards and not wider than 2 inches. This can be taped into place.
Other Muay Thai rules

A Muay contest is divided into no more than five rounds. Each round is three minutes long, with a two minute rest period in between. Contestants must weigh in naked before the fight. Contestants must have been taught the art of Muay Thai boxing by a teacher. There must be a time keeper in every contest. Contesnats must complete the Ram Muay before the bout can begin.
Weight divisions

Fly weight up to 112 lbs
Bantam weight up to 118 lbs
Feather weight up to 126 lbs
Light weight up to 135 lbs
Welter weight up to147 lbs
Middle weight up to up to 160 lbs
Heavy weight over 175 lb
