It may seem that Muay Thai Boxing is a very brutal and dangerous sport but if you approach it with the right training and discipline it can actually teach you how to control your rage in a better way than before.
A long time ago when Muay Thai Boxing first started in ancient Thailand, fights were to the death or near death and back then it was not considered a sport and therefore did not have any rules, protective gear or rounds as such. It has been like this for for a very long time up until only around half a century ago when muay thai boxing gained popularity and became know worldwide and rules were added including fighters having to wear muay thai shorts and muay thai gloves.
