VIDEO: This is why kickboxers shouldn’t try to get all fancy when entering the ring

It's simple. Bent at the waist and go between the ropes or, for the bigger lads, step over the ropes.

Don't try to frontflip over the top rope like you're Rey bloody Mysterio. Why not? Just look at Jose Palacio's botched entrance and see that it's just too risky a manoeuvre when trying to instil fear in the heart of your opponent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=5&v=Xz35wvFq1VM Palacio tried to act the dog's bollocks by somersaulting into the ring ahead of his GLORY kickboxing match with TJ Arcengal on Saturday night and ended up looking like a proper little douche. Somehow the cumbersome featherweight managed to pull out the split decision so his confidence wasn't too rocked but still, this is never a good look.
