Sure you can. Just don’t move towards him and slowly circle him until he gets tired of hopping in a circle on one leg.

Ah but could you do that if kick done right?

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 3 years ago

The crane kicker is basically stationary on one leg. If you don’t go near him, he can’t do the kick.

If you don't go near him you can't hit him either

Um...Daniel messed it up in Part 2 I think plus Chozen was just a lot tougher to beat. He kinda reminded me of a evil Bruce Lee.

Nope, the move is indefensible if done correctly. I've used it several times successfully in a few bar fights over the years. Of course it helped that the guy I was about to fight would break out in laughter after I assumed the crane position

I didn't mind you trying that move on me, but snorting Tanqueray through my nose was more painful than if you actually landed the kick.
