Hello UG! Just completed another video breakdown. Due to several requests, this time it's about a southpaw vs. orthodox matchup, which is completely different from orthodox vs. orthodox.
With an unrivalled kickboxing win-streak, Giorgio Petrosyan is just so technically sound. This breakdown introduces important southpaw vs. orthodox principles. Some draw on big MMA fights, such as the rear-kick to inside of lead-leg (Anderson Silva vs. Weidman), and punishing the switch-kick to outside of lead-leg (GSP to Johny Hendricks).
In addition, it highlights lead-hand control, rear-thigh kicks, and rear knees.
Hope you enjoy it!

forcing slips and feints off your jab is a good way to set head kicks up.
its a chess match...force their movement

This is the other thread I created
http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/thread/2308927/Namsaknoi-Jabs--Teeps-Throws-Overhand-Elbow/?&page=1 There are a few more videos that appeared on the UG, but it's probably easier to go to the channel instead

Forcing slips and attacking right after is another ; clinch exit with a push is very popular. Attacking with a hook, forcing the lean back into a long-range head-kick is also effective.

Thanks for the great feedback guys.
LawrenceKenshin - Thanks for the great feedback guys.
Do you have any background in combat or martial arts?
Thanks for the vids! I love the Ernesto Hoost low kick breakdown.
mongrel 911 - Thanks for the vids! I love the Ernesto Hoost low kick breakdown.
Thanks bud! Joe Rogan inspired me to do it. I wrote an article about Hoost's low-kick and tweeted it to Joe. He gave me incredible feedback and I decided that a video ought to be made.
The reception for that video was surprisingly good, so I kept going. Since then, countless coaches and athletes gave me props. It's been an incredible journey so far and I'm grateful =).
Great Video! Any way you can tell me what the background music of the first half of the video was?
