2. if you're not supposed to high kick because of the off balaencing/take down issues in mma, then why risk someone grabing your kee (when doing knees to the body) and doing a nice intentional slam to injure??????
WHAT?!
dude....I would dearly love to demonstrate how wrong that argument is, but I think you'll find out in time. (not too many MMA guys know how to throw good knees, though. look to the few that do, pele landi, vanderlei, people from a muay thai background...can easily split somebodies dome with a knee. To the top of the head...eh...you don't even do the same damage (unless you generate enough force to cause axial loading, or hit the brain box or some shit at the back of the occipital lope), in the clinche you try for their face.)
