Im goin to assume, by cocky you mean very confident in his abilities even though hes not that good, heres what id do its a boxing trick but it should work, if hes cocky then hell probably be the aggresser, heres what you do, back up to where your abot 7 ffeet away from a corner, keep in punching range rather than kicking range, if he is smart hell try to bully rush you into the corner, when he does, instead of backing up spin on your front foot and hit the side of his head and jaw wich will be open, its called a check hook, see ricky hatton vs floyd mayweather as a refrence, this punch knocked out hatton and floyd set the trap perfect. Hope this help you.
What is the best or most prefered way to pull a cocky person into a trap in stand up Muay Thai fighting
