ELBOW-ELBOW-KNEE
ศอกและเข่า
A short-range clinch combination that transitions from striking to grappling. Two elbows drive the opponent's guard up, creating the space and reaction to wrap behind the neck and land a hard knee to the body or head. Used by fighters who want to capitalize on a hurt opponent at close range.
KEY POINTS
- 01First elbow commits fully to force the reaction
- 02Second elbow comes from the opposite side on the return
- 03Snap the neck down with the arm closest to the elbow side
- 04Drive the knee up with the hip, not just the leg
- 05Recover by framing or pivoting out
COMMON MISTAKES
- ✕Elbows without rotation, producing no power
- ✕Failing to secure the neck before the knee
- ✕Throwing the knee as an afterthought
- ✕Losing balance on the knee
TRAINING DRILLS
- →Clinch partner drilling at stationary distance
- →Pad work on clinch pads
- →Shadow combinations with close attention to spacing
