HOLY SHIT! Firas Zahabi ?! bro your getting some seriously world class people on your channel these days (Bass Rutten included !) Congrats on all the success bro!
Indeed. As a more of a "traditionalist" martial artist, I don't like a lot of these MMA martial artists and coaches shooting off their mouths when they do not always know what they are talking about. Zahabi is a refreshing exception. He does not do Gracie-like ridiculous - often false - self promotions, slandering of other martial artists/martial arts, etc and just teaches.
John Locke actually he exsplains the advantages and disadvantaged every martial art you know nothing about him if you think he hates jujitsu he's actually what most MMA choaches are like your just projecting your own biases on people you never met.
Victor Mace Hey dumbass Just Take The "L" For Even attempting Too Pull odd That "rhetorical" Statement You tried 2 Explained to These Viewers but At the same Time You Made Yourself Look Like A DAMN FOOL..!!! YOU THOUGHT 💭You were Just Sooo Smart trying to Throw Knowledge That Didnt Make any Sense No Matter How You put it or What you Say At The END iRON BEAR Did To You what You Tried Soo Desperately Do To This Person Who Started this Thread l...!
Hey Shane, i want to thank you on behalf of the fight community for all these videos you put out. You have definitely helped me out in past tournaments with mental prep, technique, etc. to help me earn some new gold medals to hang on the wall. Keep up the great work and happy new year brotha!
Best thing for "freezing up" for me was isolation sparring with limited power - I froze up too my first few sparring sessions, but then we were instructed to do bodywork with only light jabs to the head, than we added crosses, hooks and so on... it really helped, felt like each transition was smooth and I always had fun. once you've done bodywork and know it's not a big deal, having to defend against a jab here and there is rather fun an you have room for fuck ups and experimentation.
Conrats, Shane. What an honor to have Coach Zahabi on your show. And what a chill, genuine guy. I'm a big fan of his team and his TH-cam channel, and I'm not surprised. Love this variation on the sprawl, and his laughing at the spar/freeze dilemma was the best defuser I can imagine. Who hasn't been terrified or exhausted or frozen with thinking in sparring? Laughing and going again is the best advice. Great start to the new year. Thanks!
Nice to see Shane with some of the real Guru's of the sport I've always been curious if Shane was near that level or just kind of meant for the everyday average person who might need one of these videos if they ended up in a situation like this.
Massive props and thanks to you for this video! Up until now, I've only ever watched Firas in the background of UFC/GSP specials (leading up to each of his fights) and never fully comprehended/appreciated his personal level of knowledge and training. After watching this, I see he really seems to know his stuff. Both of you are class A acts and great guys! Thank you for sharing!
You should definitely make more videos with Firas Zahabi he seems to have a really high fighting IQ that pivot manoeuvre he showed in the beginning was something so simple but effective, we can definitely learn from the guy and so can you.
I know, as he explained that I felt my body instantly lose balance and be put into a bad position. That's nothing I had ever heard or been taught before.
I'd love to see that vid. What an experience for you Shane. For us as well. I love coaching. This show will have it all. Everyone wins. Win or lose your tourney. Awesomeness!!!
Hi Shane i recently started watching in the last couple months and on the last day of school a bully came and started hitting me and i used your self-defense tips and i actually knocked the kid out for a couple of minutes. So thank u Shane u helped me a lot with my confidence
Great insight. Two dudes jus compliment each other nicely, no egos. Quality info. Common sense (repetition, hours, hard on soft, deliberate practice) but very well articulated. Cheers!
I watch all you videos but this answered sooo many things I've been coming across In my training about forgetting things when it's needed most and because I learn kickboxing defending takedowns is something we never come across but for real world situations I've been thinking about how to deal with take downs a lot and this has been great info for me thank you!
Shin kicking technique bit was well educational. Hadn't thought about anatomy, which I do know and of course the lower part is weaker. Great video and great reference video for animation so thanks
dude you gotta be doing jiujitsu bro, ive been watching ever since that video you put up '1 tip to win any street fight ( the mouthguard) ' and when you spoke about your school friend who passed.. jiujitsu is the best martial art ive found and as someone who has followed you and supported you for so longnit would mean so much to me to see you join me on this amazing journey, id love to see if I beat you to the black belt haha..been a while since ive last commented so just in case youre actually reading this.. youve done so well man.. go back to thay video and just look at how far youve come.. keep up the amazing work and please please please try jiujitsu, salam alekum brother stay well
I did one taekwondo tournament and froze up. It was a learning experience. I have debilitating anxiety and learned that fighting isn’t for me. I can’t handle the crowds everything that comes with the sport. These guys got my respect.
Serious question: how did you keep such a straight face and remain so calm? I feel like If I had such an opportunity to train with someone incredible such as shane, firas, etc, I would be giggling and smiling and jittery--too much so to record a video. I would laugh after everything he showed because it's so AWESOME.
Great video Shane! keep bringing in new people like Bas and Firaz. That's great! And yes, go to Tristar. It's a great gym, and it would be interesting to see you train there.
Great video and excellent advice as always from coach Zahabi. Shane you should absolutely spend some time at the Tristar gym, it would be nothing but beneficial for you. Great work you guys. Oss!
This was awesome! He's what you would call a good coach! Awesome stuff! I think you would be great and with good coaching you'll be in the big time no time flat. You have the skills, the fan base, and now with good coaching I'll be putting some money on you!
Really great, detailed points. I always enjoy Shane's videos because they are always useful, thanks for doing this. And it's really cool to hear from a legendary coach, would like to see Shane in TriStar
Very good video,like always Shane.And about going training with Firas,please do it man it will be the best thing ever,if you make it like a series.I would love watching it. I wish you all the best Shane, and thank you for everything !
Shane! You do a great work! Im a Muay Thai instructor and a BJJ practioner, someday I would like to go training with you! You are really good! Keep up the Good Work!
I watch Firas channel all the time. I find it so helpful for my JJ training. Yes, I would be super interested to watch Shane go up to TriStar and train and then compete. :)
Love your videos. The only thing I'd ask is to have the camera pan out a bit more so we can better see the movements. Thanks & keep up the awesome job!
Dude, you should totally go do it! First, and foremost it would be an amazing chance to train with one of the best trainers in the world, and have a chance to test what you learn from him in a Jj match. Not to mention it would expand your own knowledge that you could pass to your students, and implement into your own training.
It looks really realistic! I love this thing !!! Please! Build more video, protection from the passage to the feet, as many different ways as possible!
I agree bringing him again, he made me unterstand all in a very simple way!. Shane, could you please make another video about Kung Fu in street fight? (as you did with Ando Mierzwa). I'm really curious about knowing the basics and a couple of combos of this great martial art. I think it would be really interesting and awesome, as usual :). Keep it up!
Yes it was Kung fu but ando didn't really specify what group it is. Kung fu isn't a martial art, it is a name used to join together the different styles. The styles are completely different tho
This was a great and informative video! I'd now like to try an MMA gym to learn more! thanks for sharing and I look forward to part 2 as I think we all do!
Aw, this was a really nice post. In thought I would like to put in writing like this additionally - taking time and precise effort to make a very good video however what can I say I procrastinate alot and under no circumstances appear to get something done.

Awesome working with you Shane!!! Hope you al enjoy the video!

The pleasure was all mine, coach! Thank you again for coming on and sharing your knowledge with us all.
+fightTIPS what belt are you Shane?
what tips do you have for teaching beginners?
+Tristar Gym Awesome video Firas! Thank You!
HOLY SHIT! Firas Zahabi ?! bro your getting some seriously world class people on your channel these days (Bass Rutten included !) Congrats on all the success bro!
+03blaird Thank you!
how can you stop a double leg takedown
+King Last sprawl and land on theyre back with ur forearms.
+King Last You really asked this, on a video where they specifically talk about double leg takedown defense?
Firas is a fighting wizard.
A fucking genie
+TG15 he's a genie that fucks? sick
Seriously.
Neon Bones why limit him?
He's definitely a smart fighter and a better coach.
This guy is a great teacher... damn!
+mr. .Flaw He is.

He Trains Rory MC Donald and GSP grate martial artists.
The greatest teachers are the ones who remain students
Firas is truly one of the best coaches in the world. Incredible.
Firas zahabi is a pool of knowledge. I would love to move to canada for a few years and learn from him
same
that moment when your training partner is cousins with him lol
@Victor Mace what if I told you he doesn't know exactly where he's located in Canada?
Victor Mace no, that's like saying he'd love to visit the US and see the statue of liberty. it's totally correct
Victor Mace Hey dumbass Just Take The "L" For Even attempting Too Pull odd That "rhetorical" Statement You tried 2 Explained to These Viewers but At the same Time You Made Yourself Look Like A DAMN FOOL..!!!

I really liked the last question! Great answers. Bring him on again if it's reasonable!
Great to hear! Will do, for sure :)
Wow Shane you lucky man. You really should train at Tristar. Great opportunity.
It's incredible; I'm absolutely honored.
The knowledge you two possess is just mind blowing.I hope you keep on posting vids like this.👍
Hey Shane, i want to thank you on behalf of the fight community for all these videos you put out. You have definitely helped me out in past tournaments with mental prep, technique, etc. to help me earn some new gold medals to hang on the wall. Keep up the great work and happy new year brotha!
Thank you so much for the comment, Braedon. I'm more than happy to be able to help out. Congratulations on your wins -- here's to many more!

Such an amazing opportunity to train with Firas, love the tristar crew.
I effin love Coach Firas. Such a cerebral, intelligent guy. Would love to train with him for a month or so.
firas is a god damn magician one of if not the best mma coach on the planet, when guys like GSP come from your gym, you know hes next level
The legendary firas... Man this dude is a world class teacher and gives content for free
I know this is 3 years late, but I’d love to see you train with Firas.
That is dope you got Firas in a video
+Langit Amen!
@@fighttips can you do a video on top 5 judo throws.
The quality of this video is unbelievable!
The quality of this video is on point. Keep it up.
Firas is the man! much respect. Do it Shane, opportunity of a lifetime.
Zehabi- you wanna wrestle on wet grass in the park, shane?
Shane- yeah, i'll get my white pants
Amazing coach! Firas is the man, a true mma legend!!
+Kevin Morley Truly!
Nice to see Shane with some of the real Guru's of the sport I've always been curious if Shane was near that level or just kind of meant for the everyday average person who might need one of these videos if they ended up in a situation like this.
I always thought the same exact thing
jo shane ive achived things because of you and i really want to thank you for that you are my hero
Firas is the best youtube instructor there is. I'm loving the crossover interviews Shane. Great idea.
These two should definitely train together and the fusion of Shane's knowledge and Firas' experience would benefit everyone. Great video.
These guys are both such great teachers.
please do it !! Best gym and coach in the world as if today
Massive props and thanks to you for this video! Up until now, I've only ever watched Firas in the background of UFC/GSP specials (leading up to each of his fights) and never fully comprehended/appreciated his personal level of knowledge and training. After watching this, I see he really seems to know his stuff.

I know, as he explained that I felt my body instantly lose balance and be put into a bad position. That's nothing I had ever heard or been taught before.
Ye all takedowns are usually in a circular motion so the defense must be the same
I'd love to see that vid. What an experience for you Shane. For us as well. I love coaching. This show will have it all. Everyone wins. Win or lose your tourney. Awesomeness!!!
Holy fuck, you're getting some pretty big people on your channel! I remember the old days! Good to see you climbing up man.
Hi Shane i recently started watching in the last couple months and on the last day of school a bully came and started hitting me and i used your self-defense tips and i actually knocked the kid out for a couple of minutes. So thank u Shane u helped me a lot with my confidence
Great insight. Two dudes jus compliment each other nicely, no egos. Quality info. Common sense (repetition, hours, hard on soft, deliberate practice) but very well articulated. Cheers!

3:48... wow amazing. The whole video is full of great knowledge but that has to be my favorite lectures ive heard in awhile.
Shin kicking technique bit was well educational. Hadn't thought about anatomy, which I do know and of course the lower part is weaker. Great video and great reference video for animation so thanks
Fight tips is the SHIT, I see you Shane moving up my man nothing but love for you bro and all others here !!

Firas Zahabi just recruited you bro so damn cool
Absolutely honored.
Serious question: how did you keep such a straight face and remain so calm?

I would laugh after everything he showed because it's so AWESOME.

Superb fight tip: deflect with hip/judo anology. Thank you
Awesome video guys as always! Great quality and awesome information! I would like to see more videos with you and Firas!
8 minutes is not enough time when in the presence of a master like Firas. Are any more with him coming?
+Steven Sikora Yes! Next week I'll be uploading part 2. Some mind-blowing stuff in that one.
+fightTIPS Alright, thanks!
Steven Sikora it will take you 6 months, at minimum, to master these 8 minutes
I agree bringing him again, he made me unterstand all in a very simple way!.
Shane, could you please make another video about Kung Fu in street fight? (as you did with Ando Mierzwa). I'm really curious about knowing the basics and a couple of combos of this great martial art. I think it would be really interesting and awesome, as usual :). Keep it up!
Yes it was Kung fu but ando didn't really specify what group it is. Kung fu isn't a martial art, it is a name used to join together the different styles. The styles are completely different tho
This was one of your most useful videos, thank you very much.
You always have such useful information on your uploads. Thanks for this.
