Is that a right jab, left cross, left roundhouse kick?

Yes.

When you throw the left cross, is it with power or is it a feint?

The reason that I ask is because I can’t throw a left cross with power and follow it with a left roundhouse kick. Or a right cross followed by a right roundhouse kick for that matter.

When I throw a left cross with power, my left foot has a lot of weight on it, so a left roundhouse kick doesn’t naturally follow. Of course a feint is thrown without power so my left leg doesn’t need weight on it and a left kick will follow naturally.

A minute of experience on the street is worth a year of training in the dojo.


If you can’t sprawl and brawl, you can’t street fight.

i used to switch all the time, and practice both sides equally.

then someone said that "if you do that you will end up like a switch hitter in baseball. there are some great ones, but most of the time you will just end up sucking from both sides of the plate"

i dont have time to master one side let alone two, i have a real job that i got to go too. if i had unlimited time i would learn both.

however that being said i do learn a little of soulth paw in case i am injured and must chang in the late rounds
