It’s no secret that the Jackson-Wink MMA team has some of the most elite fighters on the planet.
Ahead of Holly Holm’s UFC 196 title defense against Miesha Tate on Saturday, several members of the Jackson-Wink team took time to work on spinning back kicks.
As we’ve seen in numerous fights, spinning back kicks are some of the most lethal kicks in MMA when they land. Uriah Hall landed one to KO Adam Cella on TUF, Edson Barboza used the kick to starch Terry Etim, and many other fighters have also used the technique.
In the video above you can see Holly Holm, former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, and our very own BJ Penn working on spinning back kicks.
