3 Muay Thai Clinch Escapes and Defenses

[@pistol975]

Honestly this is one of my favorite clinch escape videos. well done!!

[@ArtGolden]

Love the 3rd method pushing up on the elbows, never seen that before.

[@nicolasleininger4257]

I feel like it's easier to dominate the clinch as the taller fighter. Any specific tips for shorter fighters escaping the clinch?

[@counterkidnapping1737]

Yes, grab his body and throw him just like wrestling then proceed to rear naked choke him

[@kaliduncanel3356]

Depends on whether or not you're a pressure fighter. If your shorter and fight an upright femue style like saenchai you'll need to utilize hand traps anst go straight for the foot sweeps. If your a pressure fight like muau khao (knee) or bok(elbow) there's plenty of shorter guys that get it done. You don't only have to go for the plume. If you utilize hand traps, hooks/body lock, with good posture or a crossface to set up your knees you'll be a terror but only if you PRESSURE fight. You need to be actively seeking the clinch strikes first then add in the throws kicks and punches. I recommend watching Muay Thai scholars Muay Khao playlist.

Love to see you guys enjoying sharing just as much as training and fighting yourselves. Best of luck Paul and Sean!

[@VladKhomutov]

#1 works great. Trying 2 and 3 tomorrow!

[@Assassins0908]

I messed up my neck by pulling it up and back trying to get it out of the clinch, this video was helpful thanks

[@seanfagan]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

4 years later and I'm pretty sure I did the same thing, had my first session with the clinch and I had no idea what to do so I think I strained my neck in the clinch doing exactly what you did and then the next day it ended up sore after some other drilling. I did eventually ask my partner what to do and he helped me out so now I know not to do that again.

[@bobbyfischer604]

0:21 Fagan vs. Fagan.

[@topgopnik]

Is this 2nd one not dangerous against a knee that might come into the stomach?

[@LukaPanik]

great video. cheers

[@boskigrzegorz]

thats what i need - TY !

[@seanfagan]

You’re very welcome!

[@Alex-yo1zg]

Someone should have showed Rich Franklin this video before he fought Silva

[@Southernbread686]

See i mean yeah, the second is what i would do naturally. When your in anyones hold whatever it may be think opposite. They want you to pull away, so do the opposite come in closer. If im caught in the clinch im slamming or breaking an arm

[@Vscustomprinting]

thanks!!!

[@MISTERPERFECT3806]

Awesome.

[@chrismcdaniel475]

How does one escape side clinch?

[@madmax4991]

hey sean, you suggest any fights to watch were these technique's have been used? Cheers!

[@seanfagan]

Not any specific that I can think of, sorry!

[@merenish]

Rich Franklin vs Anderson Silva 😁😁😁

[@SuperUltraHyperMega]

How tall are you Sean?

[@fishbonegaga]

Ok , but in clinch the guy wont catch you with all weight on his front leg , and back leg extended ...

[@headcoatee]

what weight does he fight at?

[@seanfagan]

+headcoatee I believe around 175-180lbs

[@TheRealTheonimus]

Jesus he is tall!

[@TopJoo7]

3rd technique is creative

[@justastep12menyhd25]

I feel so good about myself i lf won 37 school fights

[@crisgetcrucified6972]

This Man really fought the joker

[@bjjmmafighter5339]

How do you train your neck strong for this?

[@swagmoneyant906]

Wrestling bridges

[@60ndown]

If Rich Franklin had watched this b4 he fought Silva he'd still be pretty

[@curtisdavis193]

🤣🤣🤣

[@testtube1842]

Nice tights....lol

[@zabdypizarro5925]

that guy has to be like 6'5 man

[@kobiesboxing4956]

It's not just the fact that he's tall. It's also the fact that the other guy isn't that tall.
