This kick is very dangerous: if it lands on the thigh or slightly higher than the knee, it can paralyze the opponent. Many fighters who begin to practice Thai boxing are afraid of these kicks, as well as elbow and knee strikes.


2013-11-19. RUS. Dagir Yangaliev (RUS) vs Ivan “Koshey” Busarov (RUS).

Right low kick to the leg is done after left foot turns to the left (with a step or without it) and bodyweight moves to the left leg, slightly bent at the knee. The kick is made with lower calf and targets the leg of the opponent.

Execution. The left foot turns to the left, bodyweight is transferred to the left leg (bent). Then, hip and right shoulder rapidly turn to the left, followed by right thigh being drawn forward along a circle trajectory.


The moment right side of the torso gets close to the central axis, the leg unbends at the knee and travels to the target along a circle trajectory. The kick is made with a calf and targets the inner and external part of the opponent’s thigh, as well as calf muscles and Achilles tendon. The kick can be done with both right and left foot, from the basic position or with the step forward, or while changing the position through step back or jump.


2015-06-26. Moscow City (RUS). “RAMTL FIGHT-IV”. Rustam “Thong-Po” Ataev (UZB) vs Alexey “Spear” Kostikov (RUS).

Important note. Torso, right shoulder and left arm cover moves are similar to slipping to the left. The right hand is freely dropped to the right (opposite to the kick direction). This way, while making the kick the boxer slips to the left and protects himself from counter-punches – and makes the kick stronger through bending the left leg.

Depending on the tactical goals and the fight situation, low kick can be used in the attack, preventive attack or counter-attack. In the attack, it can be used as a stand-alone kick or as part of the series.

In a preventive attack, it is used against the opponent that attacks with punches (especially with straight punches) or the opponent who prepares to attack with the hand or leg, moving entire bodyweight to the leg (this leg will be targeted by counter low-kick).


2015-02-27. Moscow City (RUS). “Federation East” Tower. 31 floor, “RAMTL FIGHT-I”. Abdulvadut “Hammer” Eldarkhanov (RUS) vs Nikita “Lyon” Bushuev (RUS).


In a counter-attack, it is used after the boxer defended himself from the opponent’s punch.
