Muay Thai CLINCH in a Street Fight: Does it ACTUALLY Work?

25 Comments

1. ❤ @fighttips Can you do some collaborations with Coach Donovan Britt at Las Vegas Combat Academy please? Thank you.

2. Just elbow jaw…instead of clinch

3. Hey Shane, one question: What do you think would be the best way to learn clinch striking? I'm a boxer and a wrestler and I also like to engage in the clinch when I box but I'd like to learn the Muay Thai clinch without having to learn the entirety of Muay Thai, like low kicks, teeps, etc. I'm really only interested in the clinch. Is there an alternative to just doing traditional Muay Thai and hoping the coach will eventually start a clinch class?

   Or is this something that can be trained on your own with a right partner, if you already have proper understanding of the clinch?

4. winner in the prison , loser in the hospital , so be it .

5. Appreciate the tips. I imagine single leg, double leg, inside trip and outside trip takedowns would be great counters but this is very informative and underrated. Also helps to build confidence fighting at an extremely close range.

6. Ever since I saw Anderson Silva destroy Rich Franklin I've feared the Clinch.

7. Watching this while I have a kettlebell hanging from my waist and I'm breaking a log over a fire and I'm on the ground doing crunches.

8. How to defend against it ?

9. Problem with thai clinch is it doesnt work that well if a man is significantly stronger and taller than you. Drilling in clinch class I had a tall guy in a plum and had both hands behind his neck and still couldn’t pull it down 😂

10. Free takedowns. 🎉

11. Damn… I am in NY next week :((

12. Cheers coach

13. The danger of facing a grappler is hitting the clinch in the first place. That's an awfully vertical position and they're trained to avoid head control.

14. Being fond of various hip throws, I was wondering if you would address it while hyping up the clinch 😂

15. Hurty hugs hurt though

16. Everyone has a plan until they get kneed in the face.

17. Would've loved to see Shane on the Ultimate Self Defense Championship.

18. and why would the guy getting clinched not just hit me in my groin? just hold that nuts

19. heheh my lil bro will never see these coming thank you

20. old school shane ahh video 😭

21. I feel like Dustin Poirier did a goodish job of using his hips defensively in the clinch against Islam and Olivera. Getting under them and all.

22. If they are trying to get their hips close, just leave the clinch because they are about to land you on your head. 😅

23. 100% true used to do this to kids in my boarding school for no reason lol.

24. Man the intro brings so many memories of the old days

25. I used to be bullied in school when I was in 8th, but I finally fought back, thanks to my Mom’s prayer.
