       Fight Strategies: An Interview with
                 Trainer Khru Pit

    This interview took place in Bangkok in 2012.

    Christoph  Delp:  Which   ght  strategies  do  you
    recommend  against  di erent  types  of   ghters?
    What  strategy  do  you  recommend  against  a
    clincher?
    Khru  Pit:  You  have  to  keep  your  opponent  at  bay
    with  a  lot  of  punches  and  front  push  kicks  to  the
    stomach and legs. You also have to deliver powerful
    round kicks so that your opponent isn’t able to use
    knee  kicks.  It’s  important  to  stay  calm  and  to
    concentrate  on  the   ght.  A  clincher  will  become
    more  and  more  careless  while  pushing  forward  to
    apply a grip. You have to wait for the right moment
    to deliver an uppercut elbow to the chin, which will
    often result in a knockout.


    What  strategy  do  you  recommend  against  a
    distance fighter?
