Technique of the Week: K-1 legend demonstrates brutal 'Can Opener' elbow strike

K-1 kickboxing legend, Sam Greco, demonstrates how to use an elbow to expose your opponent's body in Submission Radio's "Technique of the Week".

Sam Greco returns for another edition of Submission Radio's "Technique of the Week", and this time he's showing you how to open up your opponent's body and leave them susceptible to some punishment downstairs.

In the video above, Greco uses a "can opener" elbow strike that either smashes the opponent's face, or if your opponent is smart and covers up, opens up their body for you to wreck havoc on. It's a great move that can be used in combat sports like Muay Thai or MMA.
