Amazing Muay Thai Counters

1. Amazing kick catch counter!
Catching a high thigh low kick and returning with a KO attack is one of the best counters. But a slick technician is able to pull the leg back from the catch angle, and re-teep off of it.
The key to the re-teep is to externally rotate so that a bigger surface area of the foot is used. This is Muay Fimeu (Muay Thai technician) technique
What are your thoughts on this?
2. Highest Level of Spin Elbow Defence
This is Dany Bill fighting against a golden era legend.
Dany is the slickest foreign fighter of all time, many give him the GOAT crown as a non-Thai. He trained with the Jocky gym (Saenchai, Somrak, Lerdsila, Kaoklai etc.)
Here he uses a Dracula long guard to fully protect himself from a spin elbow while clinging onto the opponent to side step and spin with him. He then follows up with a high kick, which the opponent dodges.
Lesser fighters would’ve been hit with the high kick return for sure. This is one of the most beautiful sequences I’ve ever seen.
3. Epic spin through elbow!
Catching a kick is very important in Muay Thai. It opens you up to all sorts of possibilities.
This step through elbow is one of them. Jareonthong, a legendary fighter, catches the kick, blinds the opponent, and spins through for the KO!
Let me know your thoughts on this technique 🙏.
