I'd keep elbows & knees 100% people don't expect them nor do they know how to defend them. If you get grabbed round the head and you are used to boxing you tend to bend with it which is the complete opposite to what you should do (ok you can slip under I know) when you bend you eat knee.

of course kickboxing & MT are not the same although some KB'ers use knees & elbows...but that's another topic.

missy why do you have focus mitts but we have gloves?
