“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.

Muay Thai Boran Punches 10: Luang Dan Hera

Are you ready to learn the next Muay Thai Boran’s Punch? Muay Thai Boran’s Punches can be called “Cherng Mud” so if you have read all about Cherng Mud before, you don’t have to read this. But if you kinda forget about it already, this can be a really good review for you.

 

The punch today is called Luang Dan Hera or to throw a punch and a knee at the same time. It’s pretty much like the Pajon Chang San that we talked about earlier this month. This combination of using a fist and a knee is best used for attack, defense or escape either one you want up to the situation. Utilized when there is a short distance between you and your opponent, you throw a right swing to your opponent’s left jaw and at the same time throw your left knee to hit your opponent’s right rib. The Luang Dan Hera is best used when whoever you’re fighting with becomes careless and lets his guard down.

 

To deal with this attack: the opponent must shield himself from the boxer’s blows by sweeping the potential punch away with his left arm. He should also quickly sway towards the right while raising his elbow to guard the ribs.

 

To deal with this defense: Twist a bit to the right, set your weight on your right leg, and use your left knee to strike the boxer’s right rib. This counter-attack is similar to the one used for Pajon Chan San; only this time, the knee will be used instead of the shin or the foot. So if you know how to deal with Pajon Chang San already, this you wouldn’t have to worry about.
