If Aljo doesnt do his backpack impression again, his head is coming off his body
He will transmute himself into TJ´s lunchables for 25 minutes.
Tj should do his needle impression so he can win a fight finally. Lost that sandhagen fight. You know nothing of this sport if you think tj won that
@@Dean_stoonts pretty sure he was still on something mans is getting older
TJ is almost fully grappling now an against aljo i think we see sum nice grappling
@@isaacbmx7821 he only fully grappled against sandhagen because he was losing on the feet badly. Sterling doesnt have that level of striking to really threaten dillashaw like cory did
Dillashaw's Headkick-to-slipping-on-his-ass ratio is pretty high too lmao
@@agentcodybanx8909 more like a lack of balance
He's got them Romero feet
Lineker eating that shot at 2:11, then still getting the TD is absolutely absurd. Listen to the sound it makes, that dude has an underrated chin.
Such a tremendous improvement in his game. TJ's performances under Duanes's coaching are phenomenal.
There’s the little snake in the grass
@@mayhemmedia623 you've never had an original thought in your life.
You ment his performances while juiced to the fucking max on epo is phenomenal.
@@birdness and you love a cheater. Lol Barry bonds is ur hero
you mean hes losses? dudes started losing and blasting epo under duane.
Absolutely love TJ's setup for the head kick it's so simple yet so effective. And look back at Marlon's KO of Aljo, same set up, look low kick high! Could see a head kick KO this weekend 👀
Same setup that Leon used... Really show that the lower weight classes are so much more skilled lol
@@weeeek1933 they have to be more skilled cause they can't rely on power as much
@@weeeek1933 I would say Leon's was a bit different, he looked low but really I think the 1-2 w/ head kick immediately behind the 2 (the 2 hides the kick) was more how it went. But his eyes were low too! Definitely helps sell the whole fake even more.
@@jaingarvit2621 agree with that. Also sparring guys who are constantly bigger than you makes you hone in on technique, you're not gonna sweep someone 50+ lbs bigger unless you got proper technique!
@@weeeek1933 nah Leon faked a straight and went for a head kick from the same side he faked. Tj changes levels to make it look like he’s going for a takedown, then when they get their hands down, he goes for the kick. I’d say his setup looks more like how Jon Jones sets up his spinning elbow
I remember having trouble throwing left high-kicks and I only started having success after emulating the way TJ threw his high-kicks. I always wanted to be a switch-hitter but had trouble fighting in the southpaw stance but after imitating the way TJ fights I started having more success. Conclusion: TJ literally helped me improve the way I trained by just watching him lol. I also find his fighting style very aesthetically pleasing, it might not be the most powerful or even the most efficient way of fighting but damn does his fighting style look stylish ! To me it’s not just about scoring the most points or even knocking out or submitting your opponents but you should also look good while you’re doing all of these things, you know kind of like in Devil May Cry where it’s not just about killing demons but also doing it in the most stylish way.
The virginity is strong with this one.
That’s really cool, if I can remember correctly Robert Whittaker sets up his kicks and throws them the same way. He has insane head kicks also that are hard to read.
@@joshreid1006 rob landed on everyone except izzy
@@memikrija3894 he hit him once I think, didn’t knock him down though
I literally had the same. Started kickboxing at 12. Couldn't imagine how to throw a left headkick. A few years later getting big into watching UFC, I started copying TJ's stance switches and lateral movement to set them up and got amazing at them. It also feels incredibly freeing to emulate his style. Maybe it was because I was young and light, but almost nobody could catch me anymore. I'm 21 now planning on going pro and still use it.
EPO or not he is top 10 strikers of all time. Just an unique style
Epo or not he is still one of the goat.
Top 5 technical strikers tbf
Renan’s head was literally a kick away from falling off 😭
Pillshaw has some of the best feints in the game
I understand the joke, but he was done for injectables hahaha
@@aarondavidson4093 ik it just pillshaw sounds so much funnier then injectionshaw😂
1:36 dude did the Johny Walker impresion
You can really see that Cruz's style plays right into head kicks
How about ... "3+ minutes of Ubereem being Superman & Overeem being Clark Kent"?
Cruz ate those
Bruh how tf you get dc crying emoji’s 😭
@@hankm16 😂😂itp member
@@datmaneallah ooo yea imma need that 💳 😂
Its like he never got tired back in the day...
I knew for years that he had a high succes rate with the kick. But i just now noticed that he is always doing it from his opponents open side. Doesn't matter if TJ is standing southpaw or orthodox he always looks for the open side
& those are even harder to land
@@merkins87 not really. Your much more vulnerable when attacked from the open side because you have less defenses
@@hulkman245 but it’s physically harder to land for the attacker too
It is a much better and tricky option because typically in boxing, fighters tend to slip and dip to that side. With the separate boxing training these guys do it can be hard to translate and separate those habits. E.g. watch Floyd fight and how he defends and than imagine if head kicks were thrown into the mix 💀
@@Babyhippo13 I agree the boxing element makes this a particularly dangerous kick, and you will have a stronger kick coming from the rear power leg, but when people are mirror-stanced, you have a greater distance to cover and when you have 2 seasoned athletes fighting, that means even more time to put up a defence/move- hence why head kicks off the front leg to the lead head side became so prominent.
TJ’s breakdown of how he sets up his kicks and combos was very insightful and cool to listen to. Definitely always been a top tier striker
If Dustin Poirer incorporated this into his fighting he would be so good.
"Hands of Stone"Lineker is now the champion in ONEFC, he will be defending his friday. Lots of good fights this weekend!!!
This name should be reserved for Poatan and only😂
@@borklaser7291 For sure, he has a deadly hook. If you ever get bored go and watch Lineker tenderize his opponents body like a new york sirloin. The sounds of both guys punches are scary.
Wild that Barao took 5 headkicks in one fight
2:02 what a great combo
well done. i love how his rear kick follows his rear straight. it flows one after the other. it is like he is throwing a punch and a kick at the same time.
It's crazy how there's a naturally implied feint JUST before he throws it high. It's so fluid.
No matter what you think of TJ you can’t deny that it is a joy to watch him fight.
ITP MMA. Into the protuberance MMA.
Lineker such a beast, just catches the kick and smiles. I wish he never left the ufc
He's on a 4 ko streak in One FC now and will fight for the title. What a stud.
@@lessthanpinochet he already won the title I think
@@kautsarmw9526 ah then he's defending it then, my bad
@@lessthanpinochet just lost it because of missing weight for his title defense, same way as Oliveira did
It was so satisfying watching him beat Cody
The start of his kick looks like a takedown attempt, causing the opponent to lower his hands and head to defend the shot. Also noticed that because he doesn’t kick as high he can better recover if the kick glances off (seems to frequently happen in this clip) or misses completely. Most of his kicks would land on the opponents upper arms if it wasn’t for that entry to the kick causing the opponent to drop down to defend the shot they think is coming.
Nice hit after the ref stopped him. Super dirty.
Wow he really likes that left high kick disguised as a low. If you look almost always they flinch and put their hands down to block good fight iq and set up
What a twerp, I really hope he gets leveled this weekend.
First clip, that’s the same combo/head kick that Leon used against Usman. Don’t know if anyone caught that
The ceo of epo baby idc I love the way tj moves w such fluidity its amazing to watch . Let’s go tj
lmao
I dont know why i didnt think about this hey - good vid
John linaker (maybe spelled name wrong) looks like he was game planning to catch TJs kick. He was so upset from that foul up kick lol
TJ “The Snake Roberts” Demamp
the real CEO of EPO, one of the most entertaining title reigns tho
Beautiful technique... 💥💥💥
I remember an old saying that basically says that sh#t gravitates to sh#t and that's why TJ and Dwane Ludwig love each other
The epo headkick
One of the most awkward and telegraphed looking kicks, in the lower weight classes. I'm surprised he's ever caught anyone with it. But it seems to work.
Only seems telegraphed in compilations like this. In practice, the ‘telegraph’ is actually a feint. TJ dipping low could either be for a takedown or a body shot which would cause you to back up or drop your hands. Last thing you’d expect from an opponent dipping low is a head kick which would catch you if you drop your hands and the reach of a leg could catch you if you don’t life back far enough
I’m going for a TJ 4th round head kick tko
Really opened my eyes watching that t.j youtube documentry thats blown up. Guy got fucked over by so many people for no reason and he's clearly a good bloke and an amazing fighter. Hope he usmans t.j on saturday. (Or 4am sunday for me)
Dude's about to be champ again.
Nobody talking about the slips or leg getting caught dont want either to happen with aljo. I am a tj fan and hope he wins tho
Love the One against Cejudo
May not like the guy, but he's a beast.
I’m pumped for tjs return. He’s unbelievable. Exciting as hell
Best kick set up in the game
Crazy.
Last chance in TJ's life
He could definitely teach Michelle Waterson a thing or two about landing kicks.
Right at the end he said “Dillashaws a good guy” 😂 yeah right 🐍
anyway you look at it that whole team alpha male gym drama was just petty and rediculous on all sides.
TAM brings in a new coach in Duane Ludwig, that coach says TJ trains harder and wants it more than the rest (proven true), Urijah takes offense, they cast Duane out, TJ trains with both TAM and Duane, then Urijah gives him the ultimatum of either TAM or Ludwig where TJ chose Duane. That's the story in short. Now you point out what TJ did that was so wrong? Here's a good tip in life: When someone gives you an ultimatum between them or someone/something else, always pick the someone/something else. Why? Because it means they've already made up their minds. They give you that ultimatum, meaning they are prepared that you will not pick them. They are already done with you. TJ did the right thing. He got better with Duane. It's a shame that Urijah could never stop seeing TJ as his personal prodigy. Yes he coached him into MMA, but TJ was his own man and had his own family already at that point. It was his career. Faber should've wished him all the best and let him be.
@@TheStraightestWhitest nice
He spammed that shit on barao the whole night
Cruz showed how a high IQ fighter won't succumb to such 1 trick on repeat mode fighter
I don’t have anything against him or anyone else, but i think that those that gets caught using PEDs should be banned for life.
I've never seen suck a low KO rate per headkick
This is a great idea for a series maybe Khabib's takedown success rate (at least in the ufc) next or something like that
That's what this guy does
those first onse didn't even look like they landed
TJ is Bas rutten's protégé
Dont like the guy, but being able to trick that many people with hand fakes and a shuffle step is impressive
3 out.of the Cruz head kicks you included didnt land
Soo good damnnnn 🔥🙌👊👊
I've disliked TJ a lot in the past including recently but this changed my perspective on him in a positive way I didn't know that he was such a head-kick artist and you can't help but admire a good head-kick artist . That being said I hope he takes Aljo out. We know what happens after that
TRT-J is good at kickin
Always loved his striking style. Just bummed me the hell out when he got caught cheating. Really made me not like him anymore.
do you see a natural athlete or do you see epo just curious not trying to deride
My favorite vegan natty athlete
EPOs can only do so much for you, so everyone saying that thats why hes a great fighter is a damn fool.
Yep, still takes a lot of hard work, also some have said probably 80% of the UFC roster is on something. To be fair I wouldn’t doubt it.
TJ is easy money sadley, i see a round 1 tko coming
Tj will win the third undisputed title of his career when he beats Aljo by split or unanimous decision
TJ's gyno is bad surprised I never noticed them steroids
PE Dillashaw
0:08 this why I’ve always had a problem w/him. Even from the sparring footage he never knows when to stop and tries to take it to far
Hitting Jordi El Nino TWICE in the same fight is an achievement in of itself
DC saying Dillashaw is a good guy 💀💀
1 trick pony who requires roids to pass the test
TJ is certainly a great fighter. With his suspension he lost 2 years of him being close to his prime. It will be interesting to see how much he’s fallen off with age. Considering he’s in a lighter weight class this will likely be his last shot at the title. I guess only time will tell.
I mean he looked good against sandhagen,can see him potentially beating aljo will be a close fight tho...not necessarily his last shot at the title tho,if he comes up short he could win two or three in a row n to get back to contention,it was a big mistake for him to go down to 125 then n he pops for epo n loses 2years but with how he looked against sandhagen he hadn't lost a step,tough fight to take after a long lay off. 135 is perfect weight class for him n rehydrates to 150 ish n work's around no heavier than 160,he was cutting 35 pounds to make 125 n he's really lean so no wonder he was on epo
He got robbed in the first Assuncao fight
Cowboys head kick is better
Reminds me so much of Whittaker.
TJ is a good example of a phenomenal fighter who ruins his legacy bc of his personal behavior
More than 90% of them are on some kind of illegal performance enhancers. Yeah he's a cheater, but so is everyone else. Those drug test are a joke
@@tttoms4763 Hm yes maybe, but his douchery towards training partners is also adding to it
@@ancientcall7737 you're right, I almost forgot about Holdsworth. I wasn't thinking about that
@@tttoms4763 really unnecessary of TJ.. I don't understand it
STOP THE FIGHHHT
EPO
TJ is so old for a bantamweight. Sterling is gonna destroy him. Still a legendary fighter though
High hit ratio, very low success rate
Cheater says what ?
I swear Whittaker copied this movie
Tj vs yan is a dream matchup
That´s great and all but what´s his Rainbow Six KD huh? I bet it´s less than 1. What a rookie.
Cheatershaw
Killashaw wins saturday
how many of these was he on the injectable EPO? team alpha male is cringe as fuck but TJ is a cheater
Hope TJ gets retired
That injectable epo is some shit for cheatishaw
Epo is a helluva drug.
I said the same thing 😂😂😂😂😂
