The key to executing a good sweep…..

The key to executing a good sweep is to attack the leg that has most of the weight on it.
If you have a good eye then you’ll be able to read this and attack quickly when needed....or instead of waiting for that situation, you can create it and make them put the weight on the leg you want.
This fight was in 2004 against French champion Jonathan Muyal....and in the last round I was determined to land a jumping elbow 😂 which you can see in this snippet.
Jonathan is a great guy and was my mom’s favourite opponent of mine. Even though I won he still went over to see my mom and apologised for fighting me.
We actually ended spending some time together in Thailand as we were both out there doing long stints....I think he wanted revenge as he filled me in a few times in sparring 😂.
This actually aired on channel 5 on the Now is the Time Night of Combat program which was around the early 2000s. The promotors Jacko Ali (south), Steve Logan (Midlands) and Master Sken (North) had a deal with channel 5 to air their events.
Even though these shows didn’t come on till the early hours of the morning, you’d be surprised on how many people used to tune in. I was shocked that even when I was in Thailand they aired them on their Satellite tv too.
It’s a shame they aren’t on UK TV any more as it would be great to get the future generation more exposure.
