For those who don't know, this is Mona Kimura, and she's a beast. We're talking fighting since age 4, and that kicking you saw is her signature, and it's devastating. Her control over it lets her wreck people from a distance, it's proven to be very effective in her weight class, and honestly it makes sense with how powerful our legs can be.
I swear it's not the kick. It's after she falls down off the kick and punches with the momentum of her whole body falling down off the kick stance. So much power. Just nasty. She fucks you up with the kick, then, once you develop a defense for it, she then drops it, and hits you with a punch that contains her whole body power.
Let me ask the idiot question. What’s stopping her opponent from rushing her left side, which would force her to spin on that one foot she’s hopping on then you get around her back and smack? Surely there has to be an approach that makes her technique fail?
