Hey Sensei, do you think the Muay Thai experience was more useful for this scenario or do you think the Karate version of you would have performed just as well?
With concealed carry, there’s the 21 foot “rule” for dealing with knife attacks. Foils, sabres, and épées are longer than knives, so you’d need even more distance. Standard fencing strips are 46 feet long, but at the starting points, you’re only about an advance lunge from each other.
I wish Seth would set the kicks up instead of just kicking solo kicks.. like 2 punch to kick or kick and then 2 punches. Maybe it would get too much, but it would be fun to see.
@@vipr1142 Yeah that's ideal, but remember he's not trying to hurt the dude, and if the guy moves his head wrong and catches a kick the wrong way it could do some damage. He's trying to make the kicks easy to see so the boxer doesn't get clocked.
@@LightGlyphRasengan true I wasn’t hating I was just stating it’s easier to counter and evade when someone isn’t throwing their strikes at full speed or power but yes he adapted/adjusted well lots of other boxers usually just fall on the floor at that point.
@@SenseiSeth I said on your last video that the hand range is the big advantage in boxing and the longer he faced kicks - the more he looked like a Karate fighter :)
I think he did really well. It’s hard enough to keep up with a guys who’s a lot bigger then you. Especially when he’s used to suck a strict rule set. Also I’m really enjoying these variation of style videos.
yeah! absolutely! I come from a Karate background and even for me, getting used to leg kicks was hell (as karate focuses waaaaay more on higher kicks)! I can only imagine how much worse it would be for a boxer.
@@vincentlee7359 maybe. But i don’t know any karate styles that has heavy focus on leg kicks. At the very least, all the most important ones like shotokan, kyokushin, goju, shito… don’t really have that many leg kicks traditionally
I tried this with a boxer once and it was his idea, I was cool to just throw hands. He was taller and had the reach so it was really interesting and a lot of fun. I think we both learned a lot.
@@dantae666 i did not, i was a tkd junkie at the time, and fully believed in the supremacy of quick, powerful kicks lol. He was just there to try out tkd. He was also about half a foot taller than me so it was like fighting a lumbering seige tower. The only adjustments i made were to stay close and hammar away with switch kicks.
@@SenseiSeth , thanks for sharing that Karate and other point fighting system could be still be trained due to its inherent effectiveness as long as the conditioning thereof tallies that of the trainings the boxers and Thai boxers have.
@@filipgibarac8283 Can check inside still though. Honestly reckon they should just kick thigh. Takes more effort and vertical movement to check that way.
@@hahadasitmane , man you could check inside leg kicks by raising your rear leg (if the inside kick will land on your rear leg) facing its shin to the kick. Aesthetically pleasing and effective at the same time.
We had a boxer train in our TKD dojang for about 3 years. The man had such good head movement that after the first 2 weeks he had figured out how to avoid kicks just as good as punches.
This video is great because Seth gives just enough space so that the boxer has the time and space to figure out how to deal with stuff. It really speaks to the experience and respect both guys have.
Honestly please do more with this guy! I love his attitude and his coaching style and I would love to see how you both evolve by sparring more together.
@adana akbar its not overhyped bro. Yes there is different styles of capoeria that aren't as good or just useless like you said but there's sides to it. the showman and the fighter most of the ones yall seen are showman.
@@thecarlitosshow7687 yes....would Tim Sylva have started boxing in a street fight with Prime Mike Tyson? Definitely not ... otherwise Silva would be very stupid!
@@TD-zs2nc How about a dude that have no background in anything but pieced together techniques from MT, TKD, Boxing, Karate/kenpo and judo? Yea, im a mess. But i spar 2/3 times a week and it works well.
@@graveyardstudio3503 yes, you only need the sparring. I bet that you are great!! And it's even better because you have internet conection so you can research about what profesional fighters do, and also learn about a lot of techmiques from many martial arts.
As a boxing fan and aspiring boxer, this was wonderful in all ways possible to watch. First time seeing your video and you just earned a subscriber. I'd share this with my friends and I'm sure they'd love it as well cos unlike me, they're kickboxers.
I think this video shows why karate can be great for self defense. Seeing how leg kicks can keep the distance away from your opponent and controlling the range. Great stuff! Also I love how both of you went out of your comfort zone and were able to learn about each others MA and while probably being unintended learning more about your own. And the best part you filmed it so that we can learn from it as well. Thanks Seth!
I would love to see a follow up video where he reacts to the spar footage and get his feedback on how he would adjust his stance, his fighting style, etc. And maybe you give back feedback from what you've learned from Karate, Muay Thai, and MMA.
Really cool of them to do this with you. Really interesting watching both of you guys adapt in real time. You both found real solutions on your own, which is fascinating to see.
Super interesting experiment! He is a great dude and it really speaks for himself to just say "let's get kicked in the head i guess lol" and just go for it and see what happens. Great attitude! And boy he is really fast!
I’m loving this series of exploring other styles - what’s next for you (generally speaking)? Do you want to stick with martial arts or will you explore weapons training as well (ie Pencak Silat, etc)?
ahh yes, the arm block, as a TKD stylist one of my bad habits is letting people side kick me in the forearm, I'm larger so it doesn't affect me momentum wise, but my arm kept getting so beat up that I stopped.
I feel like Muay Thai kicks are the best counter to a boxer because they're designed with boxing style hand strikes in mind, especially the leg kicks to the lead leg. Any reason you didn't teep much? and did you teach him some kick defense?
He didn't teep that much in my opinion because the lead side kick was achieving the same thing and also Seth fights more bladed as most Karate Fighters do. It takes a slightly longer time to teep then side kick in that stance. Also I don't think Seth taught him how to defend kicks. I just think since they were doing light sparring and the boxing coach has a smart fight IQ he was slowly able to adapt to the kicks. Things would probably be a bit different if they were going all out but this was all in good fun and a learning experience so it wasn't necessary to go all out. Also Seth fought in a way that gave him an opportunity to learn how to deal with them which shows how great of a Sensei Seth is. Since a good Sensei will be able to teach you things through sparring without telling you what you need to do (to an experienced fighter).
This is how anything should be treated. Everything should be tested, analyzed and adjust/adapt to what the situation calls for. Amazing video thanks to both of these gentlemen.
Interesting, it looks like he more or less figured out ways to deal with all of the other kicks but the low kick to the back of his calf/thigh remained a mystery through the whole thing.
Honestly, Lucas is so good at boxing, he seemed to have extreme ease dodging kicks. I feel like if boxing were to come up with a way to dodge kicks and incorporate them in their classes, while still only being punching only, boxing would succeed at that.
Depends cause he’s not really throwing hard kicks like a high level guy is gonna shut that lead leg off the boxer down in a few kicks negating the boxer’s movement obviously they where more just flow parring here not throwing anything to hurt each other
I love his problem solving. Instead of trying to do kicky stuff he's not good at, he uses what he knows best and adjusts it to deal with it. That's just cool to me.
I would be very interested to see what adjustments this gentleman would make after say a dozen or so rounds sparring against someone who could kick whilst he just boxed. How would his boxing look if it was a pure boxing style that had to account for kicks but couldn't work them back in to offense?
Really like this Lucas guy and would love to see more content with him. Also, if he compliments his boxing with some grappling or kicks, that guy is gonna be absolutely fierce all around. Love his attitude and mentality and the kick at the end said it all for what a quality person he is.
This is class. Great sports the both of you. Reminds me of a time I did Muay Thai sparring with a boxer. On boxing technique alone he was far better than me, but that changed rapidly when I was able to use kicks, knees and some very gentle elbows and sweeps in the clinch. This sort of thing is so valuable to any fighter.
I was blessed to be on the base boxing team when I was learning Taekwondo. I wasn't a great boxer and I had a lot to learn about Taekwondo, but having both was a big advantage. Add to that the fact I was at peak fitness and 6' 3", that meant I was a difficult guy to deal with. I've thought about it many times and even after studying martial arts and training for thirty more years, I don't think I would want to have to fight that young man. This video definitely highlights a lot of what I have learned and subsequently taught. Good stuff!!!
I've just started Martisl Arts 8 months ago and I am an Orange Belt. I have looked at Boxing since the Kid Dynamite Iron Mike Tyson era and have studied historic boxing all the way back to one of my favorite JACK 'THE BLACK PANTHER' JOHNSON. The boxer in this segment has very good footwork to pop in and out and he has very good endurance! The martial artist usues his kick very well in controlling distance. Great vid!
I'm a Choy Li Fut and Sanda practitioner (still just starting out) and I can't wait for my school to open sparring back up which should be in about another week 🥋🎉🥊
Pretty cool! Just explores whats fascinating about mma. Different skill sets & habits require u to adjust & try different techniques. So fun to watch. Definitely cool of him to try & especially on camera. His adjustments were great for on the fly assessments
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like the shin guards give you an unfair advantage here. You are protected when you kick but he gets no protection if he were to check. That can have an affect on what someone decides to do in the spar.
This is awesome Sensei! My coach puts on my elbow pads and let's me kick. Unfortunately he is too rangy and hits when I kick and knocks me off balance.
@@akshaykali7037 see im 6’3 260 when i was in Karate i used boxing to win most of the time. I think my size helped. I checked kicks, used some for feints and definitley got caught with side kicks coming in but for the most part i could blitz right through kicking range but we werent allowed to catch kicks or grapple. I always assumed boxing was the kryptonite for karate so this video was really cool to see.

I'm a Choy Li Fut and Sanda practitioner (still just starting out) and I can't wait for my school to open sparring back up which should be in about another week 🥋🎉🥊
Cool sanda it's a great form of fighting
I love your videos, definitely subscribing
I enjoyed that (both videos). I am most impressed by the demonstration of sparring etiquette. True human beings 😉 👍👍👍
🔥
Perfect
You're the guy Seth sparred in the video?
No lol
He can catch these hands tho 👀😂
Pretty cool! Just explores whats fascinating about mma. Different skill sets & habits require u to adjust & try different techniques. So fun to watch. Definitely cool of him to try & especially on camera. His adjustments were great for on the fly assessments
What a gentleman coach Lucas is
I wonder how much of this was instinctual or him actually thinking about his movement and strategy?
A decent bit
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like the shin guards give you an unfair advantage here. You are protected when you kick but he gets no protection if he were to check. That can have an affect on what someone decides to do in the spar.
Honestly I’d think that’s a little bit of a stretch
They protect your opponent as much as they do you
You have such great content please keep up the great work.
Would love to see more of this !!!
as my sensei says: legs are honestly just better arms
Use of the feet, or as my sensei calls them "leg hands" can be very effective
This is awesome Sensei! My coach puts on my elbow pads and let's me kick. Unfortunately he is too rangy and hits when I kick and knocks me off balance.
Yea Kicks are strong!
“This is fun “ their was a great sound too that💯
Brand new viewer to this channel. I enjoyed this vid. Great job, Sifu Seth.
How do you think it wouldve gone if the boxer was the bigger man? This was so interesting to me!
He would be using more distance kicks i assume
@@akshaykali7037 see im 6’3 260 when i was in Karate i used boxing to win most of the time. I think my size helped. I checked kicks, used some for feints and definitley got caught with side kicks coming in but for the most part i could blitz right through kicking range but we werent allowed to catch kicks or grapple. I always assumed boxing was the kryptonite for karate so this video was really cool to see.
Yes! I want that “Punch a wrestler” video
You guys did an awesome job and he actually did pretty good.
Yoooo... The biggest surprise is that the boxer's kick didn't look too bad in the outro.
