Liam Harrison is truly a master when it comes to the striking arts. The British Muay Thai legend is one of the most cerebral fighters in history, and he's willing to share his knowledge with anyone interested in hitting people with limbs, fists, and joints.
In a short Instagram video, Harrison carefully dissected the technique of using a lead side body kick to create an opening for a blinding multi-hit flurry.
Liam Harrison said in his demonstration:

"The first time I throw the left kick Andy [Howson] blocks. Now in a fight situation, it's going to be absolutely pointless for me trying to beat him to that because you've got someone who's got a good IQ, who got a good defense, and is good at blocking kicks."
He added:
"Every time I skip my feet, he's going to be ready, he's going to get there before me, you'll end up smashing your shins to bits. First one he blocks, you throw it maybe 40, 50 percent just to see his reaction. He blocks, the second time we're going to skip and uppercut. Now when you do the skip and the uppercut, when I kick I put my left hand across my face and I pull, that's where your power is coming from. As I skip, uppercut. We're not gonna stop there, because if I just skip and uppercut, and that doesn't land cleanly, if I stay in the position, something's gonna go straight back at me."
Harrison then showed how to create angles off the lead body kick to put more pressure on his opponents.
