your favorite muay thai technique

jumping single knee

time it as they go for a hook and if done correctly the hook hits you in the arm and your knee hits them in the jaw

i also love climbing up people and kneeing them in the face.i have no idea what it is called but it goes something like this.

left leg on opponents left knee
right leg on opponents shoulder
then bring left knee upto the face

whether or not id ever pull it off in a match is a different matter though

 

killer, my mate has a slam man in his front room, i cant resist kneeing it in the face, im sure the people who live downstairs love me....

 

lol i know the feeling! nothing beats a good knee to the face

 

yeah nothing like it, first thing in the morning, i wake up and knee myself in the face just to get the day off to a good start....

 

Seconded man. Awesome kick.

 

spot on! thats what you do!

 

ah, i can see the gazelle comparison now....

 

it jumps. thats it. the minute i see a gazelle punhc someone in the facr il agre with you

 

Seeeeeeeriously??????

 

"Monkey Climbs the Tree" is a move similar to this, although not with the foot on the shoulder! The hands grab the back of the neck to help with the momentum of stepping up off the opponents knee, and to help get the height and speed for the knee strike to the face.

 

elbows...

..from close up following in from punches or from the clinch.

nothing else has that "crunch" factor in quite the same way.. fast, invisible until it's too late, and show stoppers every time they land properly.

i'm off to elbow my dog now... he loves it.

 

Fav move must be flying knee and spinning elbow (Giant rumbles the earth or something weird like that ).
Otherwise faking low-kick and sweeping the non-parrying leg is also one of the favs.
