Trhrows

Among the many knockout techniques implemented by Muay Kard Chieck fighters, throws to the ground don’t rate first, simply because usually they don’t knock an opponent out like, for instance, a kick to the neck can do. Nevertheless, especially fighters who like grappling and in fighting but don’t have the ability or strength to overcome an opponent with strikes in the first round, should be well aware of the potential utility of throws to weaken the opponent, thus making him susceptible to a well placed strike. Therefore it is of paramount importance training throws to the ground to complement any fighter’s arsenal of kicks, knee strikes and punches.
