Just a follow up to my previous post. The reason I posted the link of that particular fight was to try to show that even the underdog can pull of a devastating mawashi
Personally Shukokai guy that looks more like a Mikazukigeri ""Cresent kick"" than a round house too me.
The impact is done with the side rather than the top of the foot, the kicking leg never rolls over to be knee 90 degrees off set to the floor, and the body never turns out.
So while thats a vicious very snappy cresent, I'd say it was more cresent than roundhouse,
Of course I don't know what art that guy practises, or what kick he was trying to do.

Tri is correct. Gonzaga is a BJJ guy but has trained in Muay Thai, and that's probably where that technique came from.
That was one of my favorite KOs in the UFC. Mainly because it was so ironic. A jiu jitsu fighter knocks out a kickboxer with a head kick. Loved it.

my new favorite is the 360 aerial. finally learned how to do it today after 5 dang months and face plants. my skill level with it is only good for demos though.
for practical, spinning hook kick.
