The kicker. One leg, over and over, until something gives.

What it is

Built on the round kick, thrown at the arm, the ribs and the thigh until one of them stops working.

The long version

The most Thai of the four and the one that wins most rounds: a kick is the highest-scoring thing you can throw from outside the clinch, and a kicker who is not being checked can bank a round in ninety seconds.

Apidej Sit Hirun is the name attached to it — a left kick that is still talked about in the way other sports talk about a fastball.
