Greg Nelson's Muay Thai Clinch

A small sample of Greg Nelson's Clinch DVD available from http://trainingblades.com/store/

IMHO, this is the best instructional on standup clinchwork on the market. It has nearly 2 hours of information, is very well planned, organised and explained, with little filler time unlike a lot of other instructionals. The techniques work against fully-resisting opponents that know how to do the muay thai clinch. I have seen some videos teach "defenses" to the clich that makes me wonder if those instructors have ever experienced a good Thai/wrestling clinch.

I wish it would be this easy to do :P

Just give you a warning tho. ALWAYS be careful the elbow :P because it's even faster then knee :D

Greg Is the roughest toughest muay thai boxer in MN (at least).. had the pleasure to train under him back in 2000 before the studio moved.. I may have to renroll after getting mopped in college :/

considering how poorly neck fighting is represented in the majority of thai camps outside of thailand this is an EXCELLENT REFERANCE !

there are many k1 trainers talking muay muay thai and dont know any thing about serious clench .

HERE IS THE CLENCH GUIDE .

we all agree that if you dont control the clench you dont have ability to apply power knees !

every muay thai fighter should be intimate with all the moves on this dvd lesson

44800 views and counting .

This video is pretty good, though it is mainly showing counters to open clinches, which would hopefully happen not that often against good MT fighters.

Then again, it seems part of a series on DVD(s) so he may have counters to closed/realistic ring clinches.

Good clip, thanks.

neck wrestling is so unseperable from muay thai that if you cant do the neck you shouldn`t whear thai shorts!!

kick and punch and you are a thai fighter .

learn the ram muay and you are not a thai fighter unless you master neck fighting!!.

neck fighting is an absolute must be considered a muay thai fighter.

where you get the skills dont matter just present them during your fights.

plain and simple no neck fighting skill you are not muay thai !!

its so shamefull its come to this

@ryanhoskins01 really??? What are you seeing?? Spent 5yrs training in Thailand and this shit looks pretty much like some great Thai clinching!!! Maybe you just dont know what you are looking for.

KRU GREG IS TEACHING GRECO ROMAN FIGHTING THAT DIRECTLY RELATES TO MUAY THAI PLAMM -NECK WRESTLING.

THE SKILL DEMONSTRATED ARE EXCELLENT AND OF HIGH CLAIPER EVERY ONE .

ALL INTRESTED MAKE EFFORTS TO LEARN TO PUMMEL , THREE RANGE/DISTANCES OF PUMMELING INTO NECK HOOKS ,

SINGLE AND DOUBLE COLLAR TIES .

GREG TEACHES ON THE VIDEO`S HOW TO DO THIS .. IT IS OF THE MOST IMPORTANCE TO BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN 30 MINUTES OF HEAVY PUMMILING EVERY WORK OUT..

THERE ARE OTHER UTUBE DEMONSTRATIONS AS WELL
