Spinning back kick proves to be one of MMA's most effective and devastating techniques

Spinning back kick proves to be one of MMA's most effective and devastating techniques

The spinning back kick is one of the most effective highlight-reel weapons in mixed martial arts, and history keeps proving it. Known as ushiro geri in karate and dwit chagi in Taekwondo, the rear-facing thrust kick generates force behind the kicker, making it uniquely deceptive when disguised with a feint. Edson Barboza's spinning heel kick knockout of Terry Etim in 2012 remains one of the most technically documented finishes ever, while Mauricio Ruffy's 2025 spinning wheel kick knockout of King Green at UFC 313 won Knockout of the Year. The technique carries real risk, since the 180-degree blind spot leaves fighters exposed if the timing is off. Known for relentless creativity and ferocious blind-side power, the spinning back kick remains one of combat sports' rarest finishes.
