What to do When Someone Catches Your Kick/Leg in Muay Thai

It's not the best position to be in when someone catches your kick and has a hold of your leg in a Muay Thai match or fight. But don't worry, there is a way out. Here are 3 different ways to escape once someone has caught your leg in a fight.

Shane UR such a big inspiration, when I'm older I want to teach the kids who need self defence just like you do!

Back when I took Karate, I sparred my sensei & he caught my kick. I tried to jump & throw a kick with my other leg & he had to save me from certain death.
Good times.😂

@FightTIPS I'm trying to get into that clinch position now whenever they catch my roundhouse kicks, but i still get sweeped half the time, but sometimes it does help. I was thinking, would it be useful to go for that lead hook instead of the clinch, whenever they catch my liverkick? I was thinking their right hand is holding my left leg, so their head should be open for a lead hook, on his right side. Or do you have any other suggestions? This is not in a match or something, just in sparring, but i dont like getting sweeped that much

[erictorres]

This is very useful for a taekwondo fighter like me. Thanks

What are some drills or workouts I can do to become flexible enough to pull off high kicks

[Andrewdajuicemane]

Wish I could like this over 9000. Thanks for the tip.

For the teep, can't you just do a double teep as another method to escape the leg catch. I think it would have alot of power with the lead leg for push back force

[rooroo]

Is there anything you can do if they have both hands on one foot, for the straight kick?(besides jabbing etc).

[eivindsoerum]

Good! This is really usefull. But if you get caught doing a roundhousekick u can also counter by throwing another roundhous to the face. I did it in my sanda club. It is hard but it works.

[joakimleed]

When you're doing a spin to escape, can you add a jumping back kick with the opposite foot?

[kaledov]

Shane for that last one are you flexing or curling because it seems it would make more sense flexing.

[thearrow]

couldnt i just pull them towards me when they catch my roundhouse and then headbutt them or throw a punch would that work

[BillyBob_McSanchez]

Or you could just simply do what Sasuke (from Naruto) does and do a hand stand then kick them with your other foot
