Muay Thai Knockout: Straight Right Punch Counter to Left Kick

This fighter showcases how effective a straight right punch can be when your opponent throws a left kick. This Muay Thai knockout happened a little over a month ago at Rawai Boxing stadium. Notice how the red fighter (Mungkornpet) waits for the kick to land and then throws the punch. There is a brief opening in his opponents guard that allows the punch to land flush on the chin. The fighter in red's name is Mungkornpet from dragon Muay Thai. He is a fighter who is known for his hard hitting punches and often wins his fights by knockout. If you ever wondered what it's look to watch a fight up close, this is a good angle. If you listen closely, you can hear the referee counting down in Thai when the blue fighter (don't know his name) get's knocked down. He stops at "hok" (6) before he waves off the fight.
