Well... To be honest, that is a very broad question/topic to address. The reason being is this:
Muay Thai is the national sport of Siam/Thailand, and has existed for almost a full millenia. It is so engrained into Thai culture that over 90% of all males who've grown up in Thailand have practiced/trained in Muay Thai at some point in their lives. It is more Thai, than Baseball is "American."
So if you are looking into Legends or Symbols that are based in Muay Thai, you would actually be looking for identifiable symbols that are inherint in Thai culture over all. Many of which are Dharmic in nature and come from Hindu/Bhuddist sources. Many of the names given to techniques found in Muay Boran (the predecessor art of Muay Thai) refer to either religious or historic sources.
On that note, it might be easier to look into historical, religious, or folklore information from Thailand to find out what you might want to get a Tat from. I know that elephants, and tigers are popularly revered animals. You also have many mythological figures like Vishnu, Krishna, Hanuman and the like to choose from also. There's a plethora of things that you could probably look into.
I hope that helps.
