@@nathanvazquez99 wrestling is a sport not street oriented self defence. His tips are more street oriented. Coming from someone who served in the military and taken special combat training for life and death situations, I would say his instructions are right on the money. My real question is why do you feel the need to knock others down. To each his own.
Great video. I love the way you break everything down and explain as you go along. I have always been a fan of the science aspect of fighting and try to incorporate that logic in my self defense skill set. Thanks so much!
Great stuff, mate! I watch these vids with my kid. I emphasize, as do you, to use these methods and moves for self defense only. I've been teaching him not to be a bully and be the good guy. I tell him to avoid violence and conflict, and to try to deescalate situations. We talk about using these moves to protect himself and in certain situations protect someone who can't. Keep up the great work! Love your channel!!
Obviously! That's why boxers clinch when they are in trouble, and why wrestlers clinch and grapple against strikers. Punches are far less dangerous from clinch range. Even if they land on you, the likelihood of being KO'd is MUCH less. Still gotta be wary of explosive guys though, who can generate lots of power from minimal distance. As long as your clinch game is stronger than theirs, you should be fine.
Especially if the fighters don't really know what they are doing I got into a fight at a basketball court and we just kept going add it until the guy went for my legs and pick me over his shoulder after that it was pretty much over for me because he wouldn't let me get up with all the punches he was raining on me. He eventually push me down and mounted me and after that I couldn't move. Some dude told him not to kill me so the guy stop punching me
@@FlatPlaneReality hope you are ok... that was the funniest story I've read. Lol...it happens all the time where I've seen fights go on longer and both parties get tired. An easy way to get that cut short is a couple hard punches to the gut and liver.... most inexperienced cats don't expect that and it cuts the stamina down by much
I´d say that most don´t look for a fair fight and thus it´s over in seconds, or the other person turns out to be aware and more of a threat than the other thought and it´s a short fight. However, when both are equally matched and both are aware of the impending fight then it can take a while especially if both are cautious fighters...
Love your videos. So well explained and the humor thrown in. Everything broken down into steps really makes it easy to understand and follow for practice. Excellent work!!!
Very informative, the science behind it. It's important to combine this science to be more of an aware fighter. This stuff really works. Great video sir. 👍always stay calm...
@@fightscience I always enjoy your videos. I use to do wing chun in the early 2000's. I'd like to learn BJJ too but I'm a bust family man these days. The closest I get back is watching your videos. 👍
If you get a chance... definitely do some Bjj. You will have so much fun. Especially if you find a place that does the self defence syllabus as well. Good luck.
@@Alex-the-Great81 agreed. If you are ever tempted and have the time. Wood Green is only 30 minutes from the central London. We're oen 7 days a week with BJJ and Wing Chun every day. If not, no worries I see the problem of getting from South to North London with our public transport system. 1st world country we are.
The good old gum sau... or fast hands exercise. Pak-tan-gum... these are good ways to learn to control and spoil. I like mid way gum sau and the opportunities it can create... what are your thoughts Mark?
I think these are good ways to control the space and learn to bridge the gap, from that point you need to stick to the arms or clinch. Of course sticking is preferable because we can strike and elbow more freely.
To me clinching is just Basically CHI SAO sept having complete and not temporary control over your opponent when counter attacking🤚🤜. But I think energy conservation and efficiency is important thus I’d emphasize attacking at every instance a better strategy ,after all pain is sort of a control.
the best skill to have when somebody swarms you with punches is a bit of wrestling, while you might encounter people who can punch on the streets, most of them have no wrestling defense. and then you can totally spoil their punches. But the advice in the video is sound.
Isn´t it a faster way to e.g. elbow incoming punches and chop at forearms or punch the biceps? I don´t have much real experience with this, but I did once stop a knee strike with my elbow and the other person couldn´t stand on his leg thereafter due to the pain...
The chaos and speed of a real fight are usually nothing like how most folks train. And the rush of adrenaline can make precise motor skills difficult. Trying to catch a punch with an elbow could work if you devote your life to training that technique in a myriad of scenarios, but anything short of professional fighting level skills will likely fail you when the real test comes.
It’s hard to make these decisions when you get a rush of adrenaline and your mind goes into fight or flight. Remember it’s a street fight.Cardio is king 👑!
Shaun These techniques are meant to be simple enough so that you can use them even in a stressful situation (with adrenaline). It really is not hard at all, literally coming in to your opponent and taking control of his arms while trying to keep a low stance. And since most fights don’t last for even a minute, doing cardio is not really as relevant for a self-defense situation.
Should be called "How to get grabbed, pushed/pulled down and gang stomped or stabbed". With this irrational love of the BJJ octopus cult I question his street experience. This grappling is all very nice if you can pull it off against 1 attacker but in the real world multiple attackers are very common and don't always announce themselves before you decide you get into a grapple. Trying to outlast someone and tire them out [in 5 seconds?] by getting tied up with them is a losing strategy.

I like how polite you are.!!!
This is one of the most underrated self defence channels!
Thank you very much.
This guy is teaching you how to tie up, go to a middle school wresting practice and you’ll get better practice in “punch defense” than this guy.

Found pur about this Channel yesterday, very humble, honest content. Like it! Greetings from Bavaria, Germany
Thank you very much my friend. Welcome to our community. Greetings from London.
Bruh. I like you. So clinch is the most effective way to avoid those punches.

@@SkemeKOS,
True that mate.
Real fights arent ALWAYS over in seconds. But most of them are though.
Especially if the fighters don't really know what they are doing I got into a fight at a basketball court and we just kept going add it until the guy went for my legs and pick me over his shoulder after that it was pretty much over for me because he wouldn't let me get up with all the punches he was raining on me.

@@FlatPlaneReality Hope you got some training in a grappling art, after that.

Nice mix of knowledge, action and humour, very enjoyable to watch.
We do this in wing chun and in mma-bjj class !!!Thx sifu!!! Awesome!!!!
Excellent... simple way to control space and arms. Thanks for watching.
Love your videos. So well explained and the humor thrown in. Everything broken down into steps really makes it easy to understand and follow for practice. Excellent work!!!
Essential viewing, every time.
Can you make a video showing transitions from clinch to throws (judo, wrestling and/or aikido throws)?
Yes, can do. For the street or on the mats?
@@fightscience both would be great
@@xaquko9718 actually... I just remembered I made one already. See this video th-cam.com/video/_im7ZSjC6aY/w-d-xo.html
Any good for you?
Control the clinch and control the tempo. Control the tempo and control the fight. Control the fight....and there's nothing left.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
@@fightscience Thank you. Your knowledge and skills are INCREDIBLY AWESOME. Much respect. ✊🏼

Do you have a martial school. You truly seem legit. You know what you're talking about.
Your partner looks like he's gotta poop and is ready to go.
Oldschool Cyborg lmao I thought the same thing. I was like did he fart and is making weird faces cause he knows he messed up? 😂
I watch till the end...

Chi Sao doesn't really work. Clinching does. So they not the same at all really.
We have the same strategy in Choy Li Fut, going for the mid point between the forearm and upper arm
Thank you sir, for another informative video. Out of curiosity, is your school located in a rough part of the city you live in?
I love your videos sir
Thank you, Sir!

Most of them are bomb
I feel sorry for Nick 😄👊🏼
But I am!
This works great...... in movies.
On inside with a grappler, BJJ and etc could be dangerous
Isn´t it a faster way to e.g. elbow incoming punches and chop at forearms or punch the biceps?

Avoid getting punched.
Or stabbed.
Or shot.
Got it.
Seconds? In school, sure.

Then he bites your ear off
Wait, so in the UK they consider stabbing someone "giving them a hard time"? Man, that must mean something different over there than over here.
Oh and I did watch to the end.
We want George back...
Yes... we miss him as well. ☹
Thanks for the video and all the information. I'm ready to spoil your punches anytime you want to spar lol jk jk
Of course, always happy to oblige. Thanks for watching my friend.
@@fightscience of course... I have to watch them at least two or three times a day lol so keep up the good work!

Engage brain first before fists
Meaning talk or trick your way out of a pointless fight. You let your ego rule over you then you’ve already lost
ypur guys are never actually trying to hit you
I get a hoot out of you doing these videos in slacks and a collared shirt.
I know right? Better than silky kung fu outfit. Wait until the suit comes out. 😉
