I sparred one time a very good Guy who is on the edge being a professional and I think he landed 2 or 3 hard Leg Kicks. I was absolutely done. My Leg was Blue, Purple and Green for Weeks.

พวกคุณก็ชกแบบมวยไทยนั่นแหละมันใช่มวยไทยที่เตะขาไม่ใช่อย่างอื่น

ถ้าคุณอยากชนะแบบเตะขาคุณก็ไปหัดเป็นมวยไทยให้เป็นพวกคุณจะไม่ชนะกลัวศอกตัวเตะแบบมวยไทย

I've never seen anyone say it isn't a big deal lol

@@Cilent__it’s common amongst people who aren’t familiar with combat sports/martial arts. It isn’t intuitive/obvious to the uninitiated that one good kick to the thigh can be the end of a fight altogether.

not defending it is more insanely mad stupid strat

No it isn't! Read my other comment. I'm not a BADASS my no means but training like these guys do,and then once you're in the cage with your opponent that you've talked 💩 to them and talked 💩 about them, you realisenyour mistake so you just throw low kicks? POSSIBLY ENDING A CAREER? WHERE'S YOUR HONOR SIR? WHERENIS THE HONOR IN THAT?

But the right way. That's how it's learned.😊

Это тактика😅 тем-более говорить такие вещи в отношении бойцов выходящить на бой смешанных единоборств, это с вашей стороны дикость😅 надеюсь вы не думаете, что при очередном ударе, боец должен сообщать о своем намерении нанести удар в ту или иную часть тела.... 😮‍💨

I know, it hurts.😊

Have you ever heard of these newfangled things called personal pronouns?

@2:46. Haven't gotten any further in video yet

Awesome thanks so much,@@jamesbiering2589 !

ใช่ครับอันตราย ถึงกับพิการได้ง่าย

I can only think that it's that many fighters just don't train that kick enough- it's not as eye-catching or appealing to use as, say, a roundhouse kick, and I think that it takes more self-discipline to train and to use in the ring.

Also timing and technique come from practice and repetition, which also improves shin conditioning. A fighter who focuses more on kicking will have more dense shin bones for example. There are so many ways to approach a fight that it leaves several skills to practice (or neglect). Thats the beauty of it, you never know what weapons someone brings to the fight until you feel them. I hope i clarified more than confuse, thanks for reading, just an opinion from experience

If you are less experienced in the offense of lowkicks i can guarantee youre less experienced in the defense of them just the way grappling is an equalizer lowkicks are too

I can't speak for that but in boxing when someone hits you with a good body shot, trying to get them back in the body is basically showing them that it hurt you or you were effected by it so they'll continue to go for your body. Maybe it's the same concept? Could be wrong though.

You step into it, and unload the weight off the target leg, Stepping into it, you still get hit, but the kick will not have developed its full power when it hits you, if you unload the leg that is being kicked, the hip, knee and ankle can flex and absorb some of the power taking some of the "snap" out of it. or, the other defense is to step out of range if you can. If you stand on the target leg and stay at the range it was thrown to? It hurts more/does more damage to you. Watch how the Thais check their openent's leg kicks that's how you do it.

ฝึกได้ครับ เตะมาก้าวขาถอยแล้วสวนหรือเตะตัดรวบให้ล้มได้ ไม่ก็ยกขาบังลูกเตะเอา ไม่ก็คอยถีบยันไม่ให้เข้ามา อย่ายันขาแบบเล่นฟุตบอลล่ะคนเตะขาจะหักเอาครับ

you will understand when you fight in the ring

Easier said than done. In an ideal scenario you can check a lot of leg kicks by lifting the leg, but in the real world it's not that easy when both fighters are perpetually moving at odd angles, also it's not easy to check a fast hard kick. These guys have conditioned their legs to some extent to take a lot of strikes but when hit in the same spot over and over even conditioning is only going to go so far against another professional fighter who can deliver a mule-level kick. The one big disadvantage is that it can leave you open for a head strike so it's a gamble but,leg attacks are so painful - if you can't even stand, you're out of a fight, period.

If you were a student you have to study hard all times I don’t understand how you were a student and did not go to Harvard it is a simple task 😅

Haha, these are words from a typical keyboard-superman

And staying perfectly in prime kick range

ปญอ

If opponent has no idea about how to properly block it. And most of the westerner don’t 😂

It takes many blows of the axe to chop down a tree.

A win’s a win….

Same with wrestling and boxing homie..

Obviously, you don't respect the sport. Which is fine cause it's also for entertainment. I just gotta ask, why not watch boxing instead? Or a different focused sport. If you can't defend something, your opponent will use it to their advantage to win.
