This is the best documentary I've seen in martial arts. I'm proud to present to you a film by Victor Zackrisson & Erik Loong about Nicholas Matthew Bryant. Sometimes, I struggle to find meaning in fighting. There are a great number of fighters who lack character. The virtues that are required to excel in fighting don't always transfer over to their daily lives. But just as many stories like this one make me believe in martial arts. For every one bad story, there is also a great one. You see, without martial arts, most martial artists would never find peace. The peace and resilience they find in fighting becomes the reason that they're alive. That is the beauty in fighting. This video shows the paradox of finding peace through fighting-the meaning behind my logo 靜.
Beautifully made. The lifestyle that a fighter goes through is an anti- depressant in and of itself. No drinking, clean food, hard exercise 6 times a week. Ironically, by fighting, you have secured peace.
Growing up hard can really screw you up, if you let it. You are either going to drown in your own misery and despair. Or you are going to break the chains that bind you and rise, knocking life the F out. I chose the latter. Good vid man 👍
Thanks a lot for sharing this bro! I myself come from a disfuncional family...My father was an alcoholic...my mother separated from my father when I was five years old...and she beated me often, blaming me for my father's sins...I grew up being afraid...of my mother...of other kids...on top of that, I got very sick...a pneumonia almost took my life when I was seven...the neighbourhood I grew up in Mexico City was violent...with alcohol and drugs available...but I found peace, refuge, beauty and strength in martial arts... martial arts kept me off the streets...away from drugs and alcohol...away from violence and crime...martial arts kept me in the gym...and in the school...martial arts kept and still keep me healthy, and were and are the backbone of the man I am...thanks again, and my very best wishes to you and yours for this new year!
Once you stand in any ring you are achieving something which I can dream of and I have admiration for all the fighters in the world. They are the one I want to look up no matter win or lose. Thank you for your video.
Really enjoyed this video. The purity and honesty in video was well done. Marital arts, no matter background, is a way for lot people who need to find themselves. For myself, had major breakdown in 15 and finding muay thai gym has helped cope with my anxiety just by making commitment to get myself better and my team mates better.
That was very well produced and the meaning of the fighters life growing up through all sorts of problems along the way is the same thing as in the fighting your doing there's problems in every so to work them out is how they solve themselves within !!! So thank you you did an awesome job on this video it's e real peice about real people and real life!!! Amazing job 👍👌🍁🇨🇦🍁🏆✝️✝️😇
WOW GREAT video. Fighting has changed so many lives,from childhood poverty to becoming champions. Fighting is an avenue to focus on an escape so to speak. Oddly there is peace in it.
This was really good hit home for a alot of stuff for me. I'm moving to Brazil to train for a year this year chasing dreams I gave up on two years ago. I definitely let people put their negative and fears on me for far to long. Remember you all ways have a choice to take control of your life it really is all up to you. This channel has helped me through alot of bad stuff. Thank you Lawrence kenshin.
That was so sick! So inspirational. Loved the story and also the quality of the filmmaking needs mentioning as well. Well done all in front and behind the camera.
Trained with Nicholas at GBG MT and he's the nicest guy at the gym, always willing to help out and sparr guys like me that are less skilled and have less experience.
Wow mate, Great video. This resonates with me a lot. A unsettled up bringing with violence steaming from all directions. I believe this was the catalyst for my anxious and fear ridden character. I will have my first Muay Thai fight later this year and this video has helped me understand what I am fighting for. Its not for me, its for freedom and freedom will be achieved.
First time I've ever commented on a TH-cam video, powerful stuff! Will be keeping an on Nicholas, who should definitely explore poetry after fighting. 🙏
Most of the good fighters in the world have had some kind of problems in their environment. If that is not poverty then it is some family problems, some abuses, some own sickness, disabilities and so on. I've never seen/heard inspirational stories which come from the other side: coming from a "normal", peacefull environment, good family relations, functional bodies etc. I'm such example. I have a healthy and wealthy childhood, no big problems at all, a peaceful man. But the fact is, I do fight (Kyokushin karate), and yes, many times I wonder why I do fight. At this moment I can only come up with 1 reason: to be brave when it comes to my own fear in anything in this life including faillures and death. It would be nice to tell us your own motivation, not just listen/look and cheers how beautiful this movie is.
Happy New Year Lawrence Kenshin . Thank you for sharing this video. Watching this video and listening what he is saying totally reminds me when I was growing up not much of having family. In the end it's how you make it be. There is no ending just the beginning. Thank you.💪
I quit kickboxing for like a month and I felt like I belonged no where, i feel like most fighters feel the same way that’s why they be old and still fighting They just can’t let go, it’s HARD
What am AMAZING documentary!!🙏💯🥊🙌 Regardless of how fucked up I grew up, the fact that I'm alive today, shows that God loves me and I have a purpose in life🙏✝️🕊️❤️🙌💯🥊🥋
man iv been stuck in the mud 7-0 as an amateur all finishes 0-1 as a pro stop training but coming back to this video helped me get out the mud. back to training. taking a fight in march and goal is to fight 3 times this year. i'll comment back in 1 year with a 3-1 comment
Lawrence, could you please make more videos/breakdowns on female fighters? I'm trying to search some but besides MMA I don't have a clue on were to search for the best in kickboxing, itf tkd, etc. Would be beautiful If you made a video with some that you think are worth paying attention to
@@dantel4170 thanks bruh, I watched her a little and she's a Beast! After all this time i've been searching and found allycia Hellen and Stamp fairtex too, they're good. (Plus, Just found out they fucking fought on one this week, Holy shit)

Mr. Kenshin. As I can see you publish a lot about MT. Very interesting things. However, you probably never sacrificed Kun Khmer, Muay Lao or Lethwei material. Why ?
Very true Bruce lee knew about this as well he was talking about how life is just hard work but your mind will obstruct you you ha e to find ways and thoughts to control it visualize the good things use the law of attraction I’ve seen this in tons of great fighters

@@joa.thunder114 il problema è che sotto video del genere ce ne sono troppo pochi :(
Mr. Kenshin. As I can see you publish a lot about MT. Very interesting things. However, you probably never sacrificed Kun Khmer, Muay Lao or Lethwei material. Why ?
Don't get stuck in the mud lads. 💪👊
👍🏻
Wow !!!! *stands up and slow claps
phenomenal
Very true Bruce lee knew about this as well he was talking about how life is just hard work but your mind will obstruct you you ha e to find ways and thoughts to control it visualize the good things use the law of attraction I’ve seen this in tons of great fighters
I’m not the only one who cried with the last min, am I?
its okay let it out!
Lawrence Kenshin this is so god damn inspiring. Thank you for uploading this and to those who made it
stoicism is beautiful state of mind
Never fear illusions and make this feeling work for you
yes!
RESPEKT
Massa bem legal muito bom 😂👍
Cheers
Damn
Joey Garcia I know right
Ayoooo it’s my coach
great coach
Music plz!!!
Atta girl.
????
✌️
thanks for watching!
Why do they fight with elbow/shinguards and headgear? I'm presuming fight wasn't in Thailand.
Oos! 🤘😇🙏
See you in the ring one day Nicholas.osu
Do you know Judo?
a bit!
Thought this was about the 155 lightweight division 🤔 stuck in the mud division
What lol
😴
??
@@LawrenceKenshin Music and context is just depressing the whole time. It should transition into something motivating and show his technique.
Beautiful!
truly beautiful.
