If you didnt already know, Muay Boran is actually a Cambodian style(many people claim that its is thai but this is incorrect, They claim that Muay Thai is actually thai but this is also incorrect, it all originates from Cambodia)
There is a guy in melbourne teaching traditional Cambodian martial arts.
He teaches Kun Khmer Boran.

Soldier,

As far as I know, Muay Thai, formerly known as Mai See Sawk, Mauy Pahuyuth, Chaiya Boxing, and finally Siamese Boxing, all originated from the Thai weapons/h2h combat Martial Art of Krabi Krabong in 1350. It had no direct link to Cambodia, and neither did Muay Boran which simply means in Thai "Old or antique boxing," which was the name for the older forms of Muay Thai....as far as I know.

-But I could be wrong.
