“Ongkot Kuang Prakan” is the Thai name for the “Twirled Fists”. Don’t get too confused with the name yet. The explanation below might help you understand and get the picture of this move better.
This move is particularly useful when the opponent fights and afterwards begins to escape or withdraw after executing a technique. As he starts to step back, the boxer should take advantage of this opportunity and attack with both left and right blows, aiming for the jaw line.
Deal with this attack: Use both your hands to guard against blows coming from both sides. Never relax your arms as blows to the jaw can be damaging. Keep your head down and continue to move back as you prepare for a counter-attack.
Deal with this defense: Since there is a very slim chance for you to defend the blows being thrown by the attacker, given that both your arms are locked into a defensive position as the boxer throws left and right punches, your only resort would be to make use of your lower body. You can throw your right or left foot to strike the attacker’s midsection.
