Hard Sparring Muay Thai

his sparring partner is like jello, and blue is like frozen jello

Getting him ready

well you're not going to get much better by sparring someone the same level as you..

That's how you help your teammates improve!

@@Toorin69 that's actually a huge part of getting better. In reality, it is super helpful to spar guys that are worse, the same, and better than you for varying reasons. Sparring lower guys is super important and helpful because that is when you can be playful, experimental, and work on your B-game. Same is super helpful for pushing each other and keeping healthy competition between gym-mates. Going against better is either a healthy challenge or a great opportunity to learn from someone who knows how to modulate their speed and power and are intelligent in what openings they purposefully leave you to help you get better.

Blue guys ok. I wouldn't assume he's pro from this. The other guy isn't as good so it makes blue shorts shine. I'm not impressed by either of them

@@joelfigueroa1309 good for you..."pro critic".

@@TroyIndureTillTheEnd hey thanks if you're ever in the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania let me know. You can drop in for my Dutch Kickboxing class. Only been a martial artist for 14 years so I'm not sure if that's enough time for me to have an opinion but when you drop for class you can tell me what you think.

@@joelfigueroa1309 ay Dutch Kickboxing is sick 🔥

@@TroyIndureTillTheEnd damn he put you in your place 😭

Still a good training partner

Bonus exp

😂😂😂😂

Thats the point in sparring... you spar someone better than you so that you can improve

@@Toorin69 yeah i agree sir, but there s no need to go 100 % on a clearly inferior opponent

I highly doubt you know anything about this gym or the people. That "beat down" was needed to help him understand the intensity of a fight they also weren't head hunting, yea a couple of solid punches from both of them to the head though

Best way to improve is by training with people better then u

@@xxxTAPOUTxxxify A beat down is not helpful. This was disgusting.when I spar with guys less skillful than me, I go easy. I challenge them, but don’t humiliate them. When they get out of line, I humble them. But, I don’t puff myself up and beat them down. There is always someone tougher than you. I hate bullies.

I highly disagree, in the gym you should always have partners of 3 levels, bellow you, same skill set, and way better than u, is the best way to improve, that "beat down" will give him experience

@@fortunatosamuel2520 Nothing is gained by beating someone down. The beat down is an antiquated, gang method of initiation and programming. Discipline, physical training , proper sparring, and technical training will condition a man without having to abuse the man.

Yea, standard hard sparring. Can't always get someone to be perfectly matched.

Yeah I agree, but this is once every 2-4 weeks really I’d say, mixed in with more technical sparring, but overcoming fear and getting stuck in counts, heart is as much as technique

Seriously !!! I get whooped quite often from my coaches & I need that. People are bashing as if this isn't a combat sport & matchmaking will always be perfect when competing. Someone's always gonna be more skilled than you.

Just rewatching this, actually this was a good sparring session, yes blue was better, but they both have heart, and if red is serious about fighting you need these sessions, I wouldn’t say this was bullying, he showed respect and didn’t take advantage at many times he could have, that’s a bully, this was just a case that blue was better and likes to go hard, nothing wrong with that, this is Muay Thai, it’s no joke, MT is a beautiful but brutal martial art. Blue shorts put him down with a lovely left hook to the body around 2.40, it’s good to see MT fighters use these shots, I feel lots of MT boxing skills are not developed enough, MT is not just kicking and grappling, there’s a great diversity in the art, if your sparring drop these sneaky hooks to the body in, add a jumping / superman punch, mix it up, pure boxing is part of MT, often it seems boxing skills are neglected, this looks like Mexico maybe? we all know left hook to the body is a Mexican jewel, think Chavez, Barrera, love that hook to the body, catch it with correct timing it’s a KO punch, very nice, good session, but can’t spar like this all the time, good session though, fair play to both of them

Agreed

yes

The video is speeded up

No, ain't speed up

@@Amsterdam-tz8zq it's not sped up at all lmao

The Orange guy has definitely sparred more than a few times, but the blue guy is just way way more experienced

Noob, if you think Red "clearly sparred only a few times", then you obviously don't train (and I'm not talking about hitting pads with the girls).

You discount red, I wish that someone as good as him could be up to “Sparring a few times” blue is just a much more skilled fighter doesnt mean red is bad

Red shorts definitely spars a lot you don’t know what you’re looking at or taking about.

Yes sir best comment I've seen here

yea right? too bad the cameraman screwed up the footage.

That's how you get better.

@@bigassdummy46 facts

Yeah and far more experienced.

Kinda fucked up tbh

@@unknownentity8256 yea its a bit sad I wouldn't post it up especially cos the other guy half his size

What if nobody else was available? Have you trained in a real gym before? It's rarely a perfect match in size & skill levels. You spar w/whoever's there.

@@SandaBoxing Yes sure, but demolishing someone lesser than you is unnecessary and doesn't produce skill any more than going 50-70% power. There is a higher risk of injury. In matches like these there are only value that the bigger guy can train to go all out if he hurts his opponent for example. But this doesn't simulate the same level when they are still both in similar strength. In the long run you'll be eventually CTE will be developed from continuous brain trauma (assuming you spar hard that is, and are on the receiving end most of the time).

Agree

si,si hay diferencia

Y de peso

Si..

Creo q el de calzones naranja era principiante había desventaja pero no estuvo mal se ve q va a ser muy bueno como el de azul.

FR

wheres the teep????

Not seen many teeps then 😂 just because it had a run up before didn’t make it powerful

He threw it with his back leg thats a push kick

@@requiem7739 okay thanks coach 👍

noob

después termina pasando como con la boxeadora Mexicana que falleció hace unas semanas, esta gente es INCONCIENTE, no se puede poner a alguien que recién esta dando sus primeros golpes a literalmente que lo use de bolsa uno que boxea hace muchos años mas, eso es jugar a que de un golpe fuerte lo terminen lesionando grave, inconscientes

@@mkmoneymoney1459 llevan protecciones (cascos bastante mullidos, guantes de 16 onzas y tibiales), lo único que veo mal es que le haya intentado dar un rodillazo en la cara sin llevar nada en la rodilla. Por lo demás es una perfecta sesión dura de sparring, necesarias para amateurs o pros y claramente se les ve ya con bastante experiencia.

No sir, different ones

😂😂😂😂Such embarrassing.

Oh yeaaa i feel you bruv. Big guy so proud of going unnecessarily hard on a guy from a lower weight class. He's not a fighter. He's a bully.

@@theUserdudex yeah he’ll meet his match and he won’t feel so big and tough.

Siam gym, Mexico

@@sebastiangza2 horale bro what part of Mexico 🇲🇽 do you guys do pkb

It's very bad to do hard sparring often, but I think it's good to do once in a while. 95% of all sparring should be light and technical, but there are some things about real fighting that you can't learn from light sparring only.

The difference is that in Thailand they fight ALOT more often than in western countries. Therefore they don't rely on hard sparring and also hard sparring always has the risk of injuries. As just about all of the Thai fighters fight to support their families they cannot risk getting injured in training.

Not yet, 20 and 21 years old

@@sebastiangza2 que chingon, se nota la influencia del boxeo Mexicano en este estilo de Muay Thai. Me refiero a los golpes al cuerpo cobinado con leg kicks y el sparring duro como se hace en todos los ginasios de box en el norte. Saludos y respeto desde Tijuana y California.

Probably just trying to survive at that point haha

this is Muay Thai; not the 💩 that you train.

@@SandaBoxing jajajajaj great response for a martial artist 😊

@@SandaBoxing you're just a mcgregor wanna be kajajajaj

@@Reimundo31 you're obviously a little 😺 who can't fight; like most Martial Artists. hahah

@@SandaBoxing 👍

Umm you can never hit the liver with a right Hook(unless your opponent is a southpaw in karate/narrow stance) . Liver is on the right of your opponent.

@@lupus4687 I’m the south.

We were squared though and it was out off a slip and and roll.

@@LosDjango007 👍🏼

Probably because it’s not that popular in the states in general with people unfortunately

No, he said in a comment he’s training in a gym in Mexico.

What are you talking about? It's mostly Latinos in Muay Thai & MMA gyms; Boxing too.

Yeah it’s gotta be one of the top material arts in striking due to you can use all limbs an it’s mad low community. I promise you the best boxer vs the best muay thai fighter, that Muay Thai fighter gonna win easy

@@SandaBoxing hell nooo!!! I said Latinos not Hispanics, there barely an there definitely not any star latin muay thai fighters fighting in large fighting league. In boxing hell yeah mma we there but muay thai we just grazed it

You wanna cookie?

@@sophisticatedluna6503 calm down, Mexican Karen; he was just joking.
