Two of Muay Thai’s famed eight limbs. Banned in Japan. A short, devastating bone club used to smash faces. Bemoaned by paper-skinned folks with nonexistent takedown defense. It is time to honor The Elbow.

Nick Denis vs Joseph Sandoval



Miss u, Ninja of Love. Too often, folks say elbows just cut, they don't do real damage (As if tearing skin isn't damage, but whatever). Well, Nick Denis blasted a bunch of rapid fire elbows into Joseph Sandoval's head and knocked him the hell out in 22 seconds.

Anderson Silva vs Tony Fryklund



The great combo of Silva's rad striking and Fryklund's penchant for losing in weird ways join forces to give us the Ong Bak Elbow, which Silva says he practiced at home, with his wife, Mrs The Spider, holding a pillow because his coaches said it wasn't a viable strategy.

Chris Weidman vs Mark Munoz



What happens when you run face first into an elbow? You get your head smashed all gross.

Let's talk about other cool elbows, whether in MMA, kickboxing, Muay Thai, or Bernard Hopkins being a sneaky cheater and clonking people in boxing.

(I plan on doing a new move/technique each month, but that doesn't mean elbow chat has to stop on April 30th!)

good thread for best strike

Jon Jones vs Brandon Vera

Before his assness was fully exposed to the world, Jon Jones basically ended Brandon Vera's time as an in any way relevant dude in the UFC by breaking his entire skull with one elbow and it ruled.
