fuck that im kicking his leg out.

[StealthKill01]

Totally think that a kick to the standing leg knee would be best!

[TheMightymoxx]

@llli1illllll - i agree with this. Kicking to the leg is part of a variety but why keep on kicking the leg if you are a better fighter and knock your opponent down with a high kick to the neck/jaw? you save yourself from your opponent blocking-countering and possibly you hitting bones rather than going for the kill! that is why this is the clip being shown, to add moves to your aresena. IT DOESNT MEAN YOU JUST DO ONE THING in a fight.

@llli1illllll muay thai practice and I tell you so does not stop a middle kick (sorry google translator)

[llli1illllll]

LOL sounds like youtube commenters know everything about muay thai. First of all... you are not stopping the kick with your ribs, if you payed attention you'd see that he sidestepped with the kick which when done correctly takes a substantial amount of force away from the kick. 2nd of all... yeah I understand that kicking out the standing leg is a great move. BUT YOU DONT HAVE TO DO IT EVERY FUCKING TIME. its called Variety. kinda sucks if you are limited to have the knowledge of only 1 takedown

[cedlevesque2000]

Grab the leg and shin-kick the shit of his fully extended standing leg.Straight on the side of the knee. Kick again if he don't start crying.

[dirtywazza]

if he rotated his hips and kicked correctly he could quite easily give him a combo to the face and grab his neck! hence not allowing the takedown !

[Willybjj]

lethal defense?? serious???Going to stop a middle kick to the ribs!! if you get in the ribs with the shin may end up in ER with a broken rib or a pneumothorax, the middle kick stands with his arm back out to the kick of your arm does not stop rib, - (sarcasm on) or I will give a high kick mmm I'll stop with the head and then catch him his leg to sweep, like a great idea! (sarcasm off) I am a muay Thai fighter.

@19Milooszek20

I agree with you, anyone who has the slightly bit of training will know not to lean forwards

Best thing to do is keep reverse elbowing them just above the knee cap while pushing them backwards, Not sure if you can do that in muay thai but in MMA you can and trust me it fucks up your leg big time!

[19Milooszek20]

"reach behind the neck", yes, your opponent will incline to make this available for you to catch his neck.

[99XM]

@master9320 LOL. YES YOU NEED TO BE AN ASSHOLE TO TRY TO CATH A KICK.

[VincentDesomviele]

this move is actually pretty stupid and I would never use it. I train at vosgym in Amsterdam. The dutch are common winners with muay thai. If someon would try this move on me, the moment i'm as close as 1:30 i would grap on to his head, bend my leg wich he is holding, and use it to have support to jump up, lift my left leg, and give him a knee in the face. If you end in a situation in which you have his leg, just kick his other leg on his enkel, achilles heel. That's way quicker and lethal.
