Muay Thai Hackney
Yellow Belt
Ok, so at about 6,2, i'm one of the taller members of my club. Been doing Muay Thai again for just under a year and have really been enjoying my develop. However, i'm still finding it hard to counter with certain things.
Counters to punches seem really slow. It's like i've yet to develop the muscle memory needed for that. But what are some good counters for a southpaw??? I know that my left mid kick is my main weapon. But since i'm tall, people try to rush me with a barrage of swinging punches and the like - what are the best counters?
I think i've got the hang of disruptive techniques more - my go to disruptive weapon is the teep (an overlooked technique that's becoming more and more useful as I spar) but what about others?
Any advice is appreciative, thanks lads.
