I've been having debates about traditional Kung Fu and it's effectiveness. Essentially, my position is that a Kung Fu style is about it's core approach to balance, transitions, and power. These are the core Daoist styles of Tai Chi=balance, Bagua=transitions, Hsing Yi=power. (Of course there's overlap, but I'm looking at the fundamental, first principle of each style). I like applying this to boxing because it limits the "tools" enough to see each of the styles in the focus of the performance of the athletes. For example, in the great Foreman, Ali, Frasier battles I see each style represented: Foreman=Tai Chi, stay on balance and put the opponent of balance "silk reeling" and fire Canon punches. Ali=Bagua, continuous transitions making the opponent imbalance himself and "fall" into the strikes as he "walks the circle". Frazier=Hsing Yi, straight charging and pressure using the "5 elements" power generation. Another way of saying this is that I'm in real time how these styles were developed and how they should be used, and were used before they became commercial rather than combative and competitive. I remember one discussion about Ali I had with someone who practiced Bagua who told me what Ali does is nothing like Bagua and I said "Ali circles, switches directions and palms his opponents to set up shots, how is that not Bagua?".
I failed first time too, because I touched the curb while parking lol I thought it was just that you couldn't run over it, I touch the curb with my tires now all the time as an adult haha
@@TheModernMartialArtistWhen parallel parking I thought I had to touch the curb for a guide, but I learned that was wrong lol. Thankfully, the lady was nice and gave me my license, I did everything else well. And tbh, where I'm from I won't be parallel parking any time soon. I Haven't parallel parked for 4 years
@@yesman7675 I have a friend who is really into it. I've watched it through, it's like pro wrestling in that it's just ridiculous and fun. Not my favorite anime but I liked it, super entertaining.
@@TheModernMartialArtist well versed in anime ey? Which one are you currently following? And which one has the most accurate representation of martial arts?

What you were on about? 😂😂 His mum encouraged him to start muay thai as she's also do muay Thai in her younger days 😂😂 don't capping people online pal 😂😂 @@zbuilder4664
Hey I saw his first fight and one a while ago and came away with mixed feelings. I love seeing young talent. My only issue is how much are damage are you willing to take before you even reach your prime? I would love to see him develop crisp boxing and fast hands. Almost every one of his punches involve the full kinetic chain with no fakes or feints. I don’t even think he has to change his aggressive style to adopt a much safer and equally exciting style.
His first fight was over in 15 seconds, I don't think he took that much damage lol Pressure fighters will get hit, but I think his counters and the other defense I highlighted is enough to carry him through. He will keep improving, he just needs to move up at a good speed and he's capable of great things. If he gets a loss then he has all the time in the world to make adjustments.
There is also a trade off in being too much of a “safe” fighter. If you never sit down on your punches and fight in the pocket and have no ability to end a fight, you’re in combat for a longer duration. Which may or may not lead to more damage overall (say I’m on the back foot the whole fight and start gassing in the later rounds). It’s really a balancing act of having killer instinct while also not getting slept while trading blows
An example is volkanavski vs Topuria. Backing up the entire fight volkanavski could hit without getting hit but at the same time he couldn’t land any meaningful enough shots to get the respect of Topuria until Topuria made all the reads to land the finishing combinations
@@ctestare2625 This is actually a great point. In a fight as in life, being too safe can eventually become dangerous. People point to Mayweather as too safe a fighter but the first 3 rounds or so of each fight he was taking insane risks. One he had the opponent figured out only then would he limit his risks and punish them over time, and he had the stamina to do that. If he had just started out that safe his opponents would have had a lot more chances to pressure without any consequences. Either way, JoJo is a prodigy on his way up right now. So I'm way more impressed with how much he's doing right. And I'm sure his coaches will correct anything that needs correcting.
First thought was a Rodtang copy, very good, maybe worlds class but not quite the real deal. A bit like Kobe never was Mike. Hearing the kid is 16 changes everything.. he might be Jordan
Great analisis! I honestly was wondering how you would analize his fight against Edgar Tabares, due to it being so short. And talking about Edgar Tabares, what do you think of him as a fighter? I know he hasn't had the best start at ONE, but he's still a two times world champion. Even with the most inhuman of lucks, you don't get to say that about yourself without having some real technique by your side
Prime Buakaw would destroy Johan, the man we are talking about is the champion who fought in his first K1 max tournament and dominated. Heck, they literally changed the rules to nerf Buakaw and he STILL won belts despite them doing that to him
@@SuperKendoman ya k1 robbed him from I believe 4 championship where he should of got the win..... Buakaw is truly amazing and just a pleasure to watch bc he makes it look beautiful and deadly, and how he can adapt to the rules was amazing
Hmm, his skills and fight IQ are impressive. But pressure fighting against Rodtang is a fools game. I hope for he has got other skills and can change gears. Unless you're a grizzly bear you don't beat Rodtang in a brawl.
If he continues to frame off the lead shoulder like that, and they actually do fight, that kid will be tasting Rodtang's rear hand uppercut for a couple of weeks... After he wakes up.
Don't think I didn't hear the Jojo op1 scream at that fourth fight liver shot KO! You were sitting on that Jojo reference weren't you? Fantastic breakdown of the fights and all the moment-to-moment techniques that were used. The ring IQ really does seem off the charts, and he swings with the tremendous power needed to force opponents to respect you enough to make that pressure work. Very promising, I hope he can pull off his goal!
I think he would be a star in boxing and make ways more money! He's obviously gifted with his hands esp that left. He's got a decent frame. I think he would transition easily.
Wow really talented fighter. You don't learn the things he does at 17. He has a natural inborn fighting instinct. I can't wait to see his inevitable clash with Rodtang.
Ghazali is a total fraud. He's actually the spirit of a highly experienced champion, who took over a young man's body. It's blatantly obvious, really. ;-)
I’m a boxing guy. I love this stuff and I’m definitely getting more into it. Just a question if someone could answer- are the “knockdowns” scored? Like is boxing a knockdown makes it a 10-8 round (with 1 knockdown). Do these count differently if it’s a sweep or a punch or a kick? Thank you. These guys are unbelievable. Like made of steal, lol.
I'm glad you're getting more into Muay Thai! An easy way to think of it is how solid the strike landed to force them down vs if their opponent just did something to disrupt their balance. So a lot of the time a leg kick doesn't count as a knockdown because the person was up on one leg so of course they couldn't stay balanced. But if there's a solid thud and they collapse and it's clear the leg isn't working that would be one. There are always those who disagree with the ref of course.
@@TheModernMartialArtist gotcha. The officiating is a little different than boxing and mma. I have been watching and trying to figure it out, lol. What an amazing sport. I have always seen highlights but I’m really getting into it. These guys are warriors. The kicks and elbow strikes are thrown with such “bad intentions”. It’s a great sport. Thank you for introducing me to these and for all your content. Boxing will always be my first love, lol, but I have a big crush on Muay Thai! Thank you!!!
Why the funking Clickbaits,? That's a sure way to lose staple followers. If you just aim at instant click and viral clips, nobody will stick around for the real stuff.
Honestly I don't like his style. He takes way too many shots, he's basically speed running CTE. Yes he's good, powerful and an entertainer, but I fear his career will be very short lived if he doesn't sharp his defense
Oh boy, a teenage prodigy at One! I sure hope he doesn't succumb to the massive pressures of having his family rely on him and the organisation pushing him to the championship at an incredibly young age! I'm sure there won't be any terrible consequences!
1:50 having the skills to accomplish something can still be reckless... even more so because you have the skills and understand the consequences of what can go wrong.
Who would you like to see me break down their style/fights next?

Let’s hope he has good coaches that protect him and do not expose him to unnecessary damage
His coaches are his mom and dad. Both were pretty much lifelong practitioners that met at a gym

Well he seems like a nice young man... 😵
Hahaha All smiles and then boom!
this kid is terrifying.
Really nice to see the attention to ONE Championship fighters recently 💪..
Gotta do Superlek 😁
I think Buakaw can definitely take him , or superbon, but I'm just seeing him start so I'm very interested in him now

Reminds me of Mike Tyson.
although he lost to tran he is still very good especially for his age (17 yr)

That’s my GOAT now!
Now I am a fan

You better be doing your homework or fighting Muay Thai young man!
Actually I am in exam season , while training . Love the vids man
Then no longer after an undefeated streak, an 35 years old Vietnamese fighter taught him a lesson, guy must have learned a lot from his loss.
Run . Run.. run... Vietnam guy like shemale.. 😅
I guess he is not cocky and does not need to be humbled then! The irony.
Good luck kid.

i wonder how he fights against taller opponents

Not jumping on the hype train yet....
Amazing fighter zero class😢
Elite genetics or elite drugs?
poor abused child
thats why human become weak years after years.and become lgbt.coz too many people like you
Overrated. Looked like nothing special at One Championship last night.
Well - he lost. Maybe this is good for his development.
Rodtang lose too. Even buakaw.its normal
Lose and come back stronger. This is what call real fighter spirit.

I think he would transition easily.
As a Malaysian and a boxing practitioner myself, im proud to see this young man my own age excel in fighting. He is an inspiration!
What kind of boxing do you practice?
@@MobaCry what type of question is that?
Im already 20 and still fighting at amateur level while this dude 17 knocking out pro muay thai fighters 😮
