I looked it up. What we call roundhouse where I'm from they call hook kick some other places. Or reverse hook kick, people can't make up their mind. I thought you meant that, the kick where you turn around to kick high with your heel. That will leave you bewildered.
In Thailand they simply call it thai kick, or if you're lucky, kick. Kickboxers call it round kick. No wonder about the confusion. I have never heard anyone refer to a thai kick as a roundhouse until now. The main difference is that thai fighters extend their leg completely whips it in one technique, you won't see that elsewhere.
A wheel kick is hard to defend against. If you can pull it off, it's potentially deadly.
It's hard to blend styles, but it can be done. I used to hate Mayweather because I thought he was boring, but now I can't get enough of the guy, seriously. I'm working on adjusting all his defensive tactics into muay thai.
