I'm 6'6" tall with a 36" pant inseam (long legs), but I rarely "attack" aggressively.. I prefer to let my opponent attack. One of my favorite techniques is a front leg roundhouse to the groin, stomach or lower abdomin as they step in on me. I love to hear that cup "POP!":
Your move, Montana!My favourite is to catch that roundhouse and sweep the other leg so that as my mother used to put it... 'it spilts his difference'.
Doubtful you can catch it. I use my FRONT leg, just a quick little flip using my toes or top of the foot to whack the target. I don't throw it to the torso unless I know full well it will land becausse your guard is high.Your move, Montana!

For the fists - are you referring to a u-punch, or two punches in rapid succession, or something else? I have never been able to get power successfully from a u-punch, and imagine it would be tougher when on one leg.A buddy of mine showed me a close-range attack: fists to head and mid-level, but kick to the knee/instep at same time (or delayed just a hair). It takes balance, and is only good in-close, but the opponent is focused on the upper attacks and the foot is outside the opponent's angle of view when close.

What I do like is, since I'm a fan of closing distance, throw a punch to the face with no intention of landing it, but to dostract/take up field of vision, so I can get close quickly and do a sweep while they focus on my hands/sudden instep.
Realized I never responded to this. We do something very similar then. If my strike is going to hit, I will absolutely hit rather than pull back/leave it there, it's just not the purpose of the strike.Two in quick succession, elbows in.
But what my friend doing is similar (with a kick rather than a sweep) to what you do, but I think that he intends to land the fists just in case -- a percentage play.
