  1. A. I studied martial arts years ago (through highschool, little here and there while I was in the military.) 99% of the time a jump spinning kick like that is suicide in the ring. It broadcasts itself too well, and you trade too much speed for power. B. The 1% when that kick is actually appropriate IS NOT in a full on frontal attack where you opponent can see you coming and easily dodge, OR step forward to close the distance. C. Just as a spectator, it looks as if the kick was started far too close and simply overshot. I've done that kick, years ago when I was in better shape and more limber. It's fairly devastating if landed, but it's like a wild haymaker. They only have a reasonable chance of succes in certain situations, and toe to toe isn't one of them.
