How come elbows are not generally used in Muay Thai?
Before you flame me … I know they are used, and My Muay Thai, we are taught to use elbows. But it seems to major combat, are not very common. Is it simply a murderous general strike unjustified?
It depends on where the major combat is and what the rules are. Elbows are not commonly used or authorized in most Western rules of Muay Thai simply because it is too damaging a weapon. In Thailand, but yes, it is allowed … all is allowed. The elbow is a dangerous and nasty very short range weapon and you need to be in a foot of your opponent in the range of body body to slash her. Elbows can also be used defensively to block out and hurt the opponent's blows and kicks. All it touches cuts and bruise and break. Thai fighters generally have a tacit understanding that if you do not use it, I will not either. Of course, it is never far from the truth about all the countless games that you see in Thailand where elbows and ultra-bloody fighting are not uncommon. Elbow KO in Thailand also score well with judges and fighters may receive a higher bonus at the end.
