If the opponent doesn't catch them they are amazing to keep distance and to hurt the body.

The better the striker the harder it is to catch the front kick and trun it into a takedown.

Yeah, when I fight Muay Thai I can't stand a fighter who overuses front kicks...I just wait till I can catch their foot, then I try and hold it over my shoulder and crack them in the face till they fall over haha

HA! I love seeing them in MMA...mauy thai fighters use it like a jab

its a smart, low risk move that may put the other guy off balance...good for setting up a lot of different stuff

I think that BJJ practicioners should use front kicks more because if they get taken down, it doesn't really matter since they are comfortable there anyways. I've always liked how Royce uses his front kicks (even in the early UFC's).
