Kaitlin Young

I like watching these 3 Kaitlin Young fights. She ko'd all 3 of her opponents in this tournament.

I have to be honest, I wasn't really inclined to watch at first. I felt like it was probably going to be a bunch of grabbing and bad clinching and apefisted punching. But Kaitlin Young is a real Muay Thai technician. You'll notice that none of these 3 matches goes to the ground.

She throws some really nice knees in the first bout.

Awesome head kicks, and she beats a girl who has substantially more experience.

I like how Kaitlin doesn't try to look all tough and dude-like, and she's not all covered with tattoos. Neither does she slather herself with makeup and try to look cute. She just looks like a regular girl. The girl next door, perhaps. The girl next door who kicks you in the head.
