i thought the tall guy was pretty unimpressive until that kick. his other kicks had pretty bad form. the other guy did well to get right in through the tall guys reach.

The guys head kind of rocks back and fourth on impact, spinal damage?

Great kick, although he telegraphed the kick to the point where I'm surprised his opponent didn't even try to block or duck it, must have had his mind somewhere else. Films are decieving, the kick might have been faster than the clip showed. Bet he had a head ache

Take a look at this one and have a look at the
clock

Really he set it up with the jab and the lower spin side kick, after that, the guy was trying to block a low kick. But he got faked out and got caught with the high kick.
Watch his hands just before getting hit, he pat block/weaved the jab that didn't come and he tried to down block a low kick. Sometimes if you ain't sure its best to step back. Arm chair quarterbacking, hindsight is sure safe.
Good kick bc it worked.

He totally set that kick up with that jab. Even though the kick was sloppy, it landed on the right spot. If he would have caught the guy with his heel the guy may would have been picking up his jaw off the floor. It kinda look like he was throwing a backfist also but then BAM a hook kick.

Matt, must have replayed that clip 20 times. Your right... it looks as if the guy thought it was going to be a spinning back kick and he dropped his hands to parry the kick but instead he was clocked with the hook kick.
