The San Soo upper cut!
Like so many techniques we think we know how to use it but so many also do not understand. Think it is like a boxer uses it, not really because the gloves usually will not allow the fist into the throat area. How many boxing matches have you seen won due to a punch to the throat? To set up your opponent, reach out toward his eyes with your left so he may lean back a little, as you faked the first move you have stepped in to get closer with your right foot to close distance. Three things have now been accomplished, his head is tilted back to expose his throat, your incoming left hides the right fist starting up at a 45 degree angle from underneath. When it strikes he feels like he is going to swallow his Adam’s apple.The reason you moved in close is because you want to limit his vision to straight forward by hiding the incoming punch. He will cough and gag for a long time.
