Hey Shane, just wanted to say I've been watching your videos since all the way back, back when you had dreadlocks (how long was that, like 8 years ?) and you still continue to produce top-notch videos, week after week for more than a decade. I have probably watched 95% of the videos you put out over all this time and every time a new one comes out I'm happy to watch it. I think you helped me so much expend my knowledge and skills in muay thai and martial arts over my martial arts journey. There are so many other great channels on martial arts and fight sports (Lawrence Kenshin, MMAshredded, Karate Nerd, Modern Martial Artist, etc) but you've always been my favorite because you have this combination of great advice, great production, simple and to the point videos and a very likeable personality. Thanks for everything Shane, you're the best.
Some good options here, the only one I’d be a bit concerned with is the posting arm at 1:30 in case he tries to lock up the arm and the hand somehow, or use it to throw/takedown, but for Muay Thai it should be ok (I haven’t commented in ages btw! That’s why I was thinking about everything else and I’m probably overthinking it)
Posting arms like this is used a lot in mma (examples are Jon jones and Connor mcgregor) to prevent opponents from crashing the range into a clinch or takedowns. Strikes can pressure them out of range, but they don’t physically stop the opponent like this stiff arm does.
Hey Shane any tip for the rolling elbow off wrist control(in a collar tie by the shirt or behind the head) Besides obviously dont try to collar a guy when standing?
@@fighttips no worries pal. I rarely go to collar tie an opponent myself and you can't train elbows realistically so I always appreciate any input you have.
@@drunkpaulocosta McGregor rattled Cerrone with shoulder strikes in UFC 246...and both McGregor and Poirier used them to really good effect in UFC 264. So I'd argue that they can be effective.
In lethwei id argue it’s the he headbutt since you don’t have your shoulder span to add reach just the mobility and reach you can muster from your neck
Say bro what advice you got for trading blow for blow what high level chess move advice you got for getting in the blend ? Love your channel btw you got some of the best game in combat culture
I wanna coach someday, right now I work a minimum wage job and I’m curious what do you guys recommend someone who wants to coach do for work while pursuing such a career. I need a job that pays decent enough to allow me to afford training aswell as a cheap apartment. What is a step up from a minimum wage job that will allow me to do so? I’d say I’m intermediate when it comes to fighting, I know the basics, I could for sure teach a beginner to intermediate class if I was asked to do so. My coaches tell just keep training and eventually you’ll have enough knowledge and experience to coach, which I understand but the other side I wanna know is, what do you do for work? Can someone share some advice?

I'm writing a lengthy response, realizing this would make for a great video! Excellent question 👍
@@fighttips no worries pal. I rarely go to collar tie an opponent myself and you can't train elbows realistically so I always appreciate any input you have.
❤ going to share it on LinkedIn! 😊
Great content as always! Thank you for the tips!
not the drake meme!! great to see the anomaly in a new FT video 👊 great stuff, as always
Correction, the elbow isn't the shortest-range strike...the shoulder strike is.
He meant effective strike lol
@@drunkpaulocosta McGregor rattled Cerrone with shoulder strikes in UFC 246...and both McGregor and Poirier used them to really good effect in UFC 264. So I'd argue that they can be effective.
@@miltonbates6425I guess if you’re a professional or if you know what you’re doing they can be, heck even forearm strikes can be aswell
In lethwei id argue it’s the he headbutt since you don’t have your shoulder span to add reach just the mobility and reach you can muster from your neck
@@Nergal123 True, you're probably right. But a damaging headbutt is more like a rhino thrust, and it requires a decent range of motion.
Good technique thanks bro
I needed that ! thx
You can use the dracula guard to block elbows
Thanks!
Say bro what advice you got for trading blow for blow what high level chess move advice you got for getting in the blend ? Love your channel btw you got some of the best game in combat culture
This is a great tips
Man, FOMOing hard not being able to be there with you both - miss you guys! 💙
Miss you too, man! Next time for sure! Huge congrats on 10 years -- that's incredible 👏
A dodge and simple blocks thats genius who would have thought of that
Shade, do a review of the Ultimate Self Defense Championship in Rokas channel
Hey bro can you do a video on footwork but the running footwork ?? Like Dricus du plessis was runing towards whittaker for the finish tjanks
Hey Shane, big love from rural Australia. Is there any books you recommend for studying muay thai fundamentals outside of the gym?
I don't fight. Im not even in training, and i love these videos. I want to learn muay thai but time and money are the issue.
Can you go over jack dempseys book
Hey shane i was wondering if i could send you a vid of me shadow boxing and if you could give me some pointers cheers brother ❤

how to spin hook kick
👍
I use karate techniques in muay thai
Thats good. Karate is underrated, some techniques can catch them off guard. I like to move around more than standing still
Does this work for MMA also?
Yes
@@fighttips awesome, thanks!
Where do I find someone to fight? I've never been in a fight in my life and everyone is afraid of me naturally because I'm really handsome and tall.
Haha how about joining a kick/boxing/mma gym, and training until your coach says you're ready for a match?
Hey have you heard of the Bruce Lee challenge on the internet
I swear i saw you at WKA today but i didn’t say anything 😭
Hey Shane.. Teach some easy martial arts kicks which anyone can learn.
isnt like half of winning the fight just being unpredictable?
Yep, and the other half is conditioning. The 3rd half is mental warfare and grit. Fighting is 100% physical and 50% mental 🙂
Be somewhere else
Just pull out a gun
Stay away from Muay Thai fighters!
Thank you Shane. I am submission grappler. But I enjoy watching your channel very much.
