WATCH: Thai megastar Superbon demonstrates how to land his signature close-range roundhouse kick
Fighters often have signature moves tucked safely in their arsenal, and Superbon is no different. The ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world champion is best known for his iconic roundhouse kick, which is sometimes impossible to comprehend.
While some fighters would throw their roundhouse kicks from a distance, Superbon uses a variation that he can unleash from close range.
Superbon has knocked out many a fighter with his mind-numbing technique, and he gladly shared his secret on how to land his devastating finisher.
Watch the Thai megastar's quick demonstration below:
"How to kick in close range ☝️"
The move does require a fair bit of flexibility from the fighter, but Superbon showed a nifty trick on how he used his entire body to whip his roundhouse kick.
Superbon leaned his upper body downwards to his left, used his waist as the fulcrum, and quickly launched his roundhouse kick as high and with as much force as possible.
The former undisputed ONE featherweight kickboxing world champion seemed to have trained his signature technique throughout his entire career, and he unleashed it to perfection when he faced the legendary Giorgio Petrosyan.
Superbon battled the Italian icon for the inaugural ONE featherweight kickboxing world title at ONE: First Strike in October 2021.
After baiting Petrosyan to guard the midsection, Superbon threw his trademark finisher with barely any set-up to send 'The Doctor' to the nether realm in their world title showdown.
Superbon did an almost complete redux of his iconic head kick knockout when he faced Tayfun Ozcan at ONE Fight Night 11.
Working behind his counter, Superbon used his left leg to send Ozcan to oblivion during their June 2023 matchup.
