Unbalance your opponent, not wrestle with him, when applying your felling technique

An effective tactic against Kick-Boxers is to fell them as soon as or before they place their legs on the ground after their kicks. But there are a few important points to bear in mind when you use this tactic.

Firstly, you must not rush in hurriedly. Doing so would expose you to their strikes. Secondly, avoid their kicks, especially sweeping kicks, which are usually powerful. You may strike their kicking legs if you can, but make sure that your striking does not go against their kicking momentum. Then move in swiftly, taking care to cover yourself adequately, to fell him. You may also make the first move and fell him.
