What is Dump in Muay Thai?

Throwing the opponent to the canvas from the clinch or off a caught kick using legal off-balancing — twisting them past their base or removing a support leg — rather than a hip throw. Scores strongly as a statement of control and balance.

Example: She caught the kick, ran him backwards, and dumped him at the ropes.
