Usage?

Muay Thai Boxing has gained increasing worldwide popularity since the late 20th to 21st Century.

In the sentence, is it correct to use the phrase "the late 20th to 21st Century" after the word "since"? Thanks in advance.

No, it is not correct. "Since" connects some point in time in the past with the current time period. If you really must include the 21st Century, try perhaps: anonymous Muay Thai b oxing has gained increasing worldwide popularity since around the late 20th to or early 21st Century.
