From what I’ve seen, Volk built his championship reign on using these lil shortcuts to leg kick. He makes you play an eternal game of footsie between his inside leg kick and his outside calf kick that freezes your footwork. And in those moments he blitzes you with boxing combinations. It’s very advanced MMA kickboxing.
the best time to kick the leg is when the opponent is coming forward is not exactly groundbreaking. When they're stepping forward, they can't check the kick. The key is just hiding it with feints or hiding it behind a jab and you don't want to become predictable to the point where they know if they take a step, a kick is coming so they fake coming forward and check.
So like lure him backwards and then go for the leg kick after faking another step back?
