ATTACKING THE WEAKNESSES OF KICK-BOXERS
This is interesting. Kick-Boxing evolved because many people, inspired by Muay Thai, added kicks to their fighting, which was mainly Boxing. But for us well trained to handle kicks, this makes it easy for us to defeat them. In other words, if you can handle kicks efficiently, defeating a Kick-Boxer is easier than defeating a Boxer because of the kicks.
