@@eye_man_danda_best_man4311 it’s hard to say who invented it first as martial arts date back quiet awhile, but it really is just a front kick into a roundhouse so it would exist anywhere those two kicks do. It’s really nothing special to be honest, you sorta just do it naturally when adjusting mid kick if you’re quick enough. The opposite works just as well, faking a round house into a clean front kick.
I think it's actually refreshing they're stand up utilizes way more combo cause of the weapons they have to master, so him saying maybe while teaching how to move and don't tell someone what going to happen like sight reading in most sports possible but harder to do so instead fight with the major possibilities of maybe and don't second guess, cause maybe it'll work but defense will always get you another fight 😂 but I do appreciate this comment
@@agip1787yea but the guys at ATT can take the basics and add it to their game to make them better. It doesn’t HAVE to be done from a young age because these guys aren’t trying to be masters like the legend they’re learning from.
Yeah that's why. It's also the same with khabib's "smesh". I would have probably never known the difference between smash and smesh if I didn't learn pronunciation in American or British way
I’m a big fan of his teaching, his version of knowledge isn’t all about perfect technique, it’s about the little pieces of moves that make you a better fighter, his knowledge feels like it comes directly out of training and no one’s mouth
bro i love this guy. seriously a great warrior. i've learned so much from him through his videos. I can't imagine what pure concentrated, in person advice were imparted on these students.
SencHai so fast with it. Can also after being grabbed, rotate the knee of the grabbed leg upwards and jump towards the opponent putting all your weight on the grabbed leg, maybe with a vertical down elbow to the head or just entering clinch.
@@airsoftsniper9191one of the taller guys at my gym is really good at this, except he's usually coming in with a right cross. Only took me one time to learn that I better keep the opposite hand up and ready if I'm catching a kick. I personally prefer to try and clinch right away if my kick is caught.
That is very important, and it requires speed and that balance to get your feet back together and going for a further attack. Only here Saenchai re-chambering or "returning" his leg, but moreso pulling it back by snaking it. You can see when he kicks, his knee points towards the guy in front, and as the guy goes to grab the leg, Saenchai turns his knee 90⁰ the opposite way, which allows him to snake his leg out quick and get on the attack.
@hungleba3996 wont that be a risk for dislocation if the hold gets any sort of traction? (I dont do fighting and have a interest in body mechanics so i dont know what can happen)
@@PerciusLive A good question. The risk is diminished because when you re-chamber you bend the knee. And if your leg is caught you won't be able to generate enough force with your leg extended to cause harm. Most when their leg is caught have their knee bent to regain balance and to close the distance.
Hip dexterity on saenchai is other worldly. Seeing him in person in a seminar is priceless. He did something similar when he, Kru Jack, Spencer and Singdam came to my home gym.
Pay attention to his foot when landed. A small rotation on the ankle to slip out of catch. Amazing thing is Muay Thai has a lot of such little tricks to learn. 🫡
he just show how to pull the leg back my friend so just a little hip move like whip just for an example because when you pull the leg back it's all about twisting the leg not about hip my friend. that's mean if your kick used a lot of hip you still also have to use the same technique to pull your leg back. hello from Thailand🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
I noticed that saenchai has exceptional hip flexibility, which allows him to execute moves like question mark kicks and this maneuver outstandingly well
He's circling away to mitigate the impact power of Saenchai's kick. You can also mitigate the power of impact by circling into the direction of the kick. It's much easier to catch as the attacker will have slightly more weight on the back foot during the earlier arc of the kick.
I was always taught not to dodge and that you should use head movement and slips to lunge your head towards the incoming strike to mitigate the damage to my face and brain
@matthewairey3200 Mwahahaha. If you can effectively escape the impact zone of the strike, that'll work, too. Approx. 6in³ for punches and 10in³ for kicks. So, for a teep, you'd have to zip forward 5 inches in the time it takes you to notice the teep coming and 5 inches before it hits you. I'm top heavy and can flick a front leg teep without telegraphing in about 5/6 of a second. That's why a high check is effective against rib cracking side kicks. But it's only really effective if you're fighting in a square close-leg stance. When you spring your leg up for the check, the impact point will be more than 5in away from where your ribs are, and the kick will lose more than 80% of its power. Wide stance takes longer to lift and makes it difficult to balance on any one given leg because they're spread apart in a triangle against the floor. It works for low kicks, too. But only for close-leg stances. If, on the other hand, you adopt a wide square stance and you did a low-kick check, the check will be in the same strike zone as your planted foot, and you'll receive the full impact. Albeit on your upper shin, which still should be stronger than your opponents mid shin...unless they're Saenchai's shins. Oos!
Real talk, if i ever had a choice of who i want to teach me to fight its saenchai, they r living my dream, he is absolute world class, my favourite fighter of all time
Step by step:
(1) Throw Kick
(2) Noodle foot
Is it correct that saenchai invented the question mark? I heard this somewhere

This martial art need to be train from a younger age...

It's a seminar, I hope so

what's the difference between maybe and meybe? how do you tell he's saying "meybe"

Turning your feet up on the retract helps tremendously. Thanks Kru Saenchai.
This makes so much more sense, reading then then watching the video again
Great for getting back into stance, or even creating an opening depending how you step
Sangchai he has been ALWAY TOP OF 5 IN MUANTHAI.
Insane hip flexibility needed for this
I wouldn’t say insane , pretty good balance and general flexibility but to say insane is a bit of a stretch
@@ordinaryname8567 I would because you need to flexibility to maintain your strength and stability.

I'm so glad people are being taught to re-chamber or return your kick. This gives you so many more options.

God bless this man
That’s incredible. Never saw that technique before.🙏
Saenchai is the GOAT!!!
Buakaw says, “hold my beer!”
You can see how respectful the student is being unsure of how hard to kick
Take this in, this is valuable knowledge shared!!!!
That student is a gentleman. He is strong but did not hurt the teacher.
생활의 지혜~~😊😊
Saengai the best Thai Boxer of his time, super Fighter respect sir🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊
You can tell one of the dudes behind the camera from the hood he was so geeked learning that technique😂😂
This man is a legend
This guys is a genius.. very lucky to be training in the same room as him..
I love this guy man, what a legend
respect
This guy is legendary ...
Love it. Truly a master. Tells you what he’s going to do, tells you what to do…and still can’t catch/lock his leg…deamnnn
Technique, the way he brings his leg back after hitting the target. Legendary.
Saenchai is a living legend. It's good to see him active with full of love into sports.
Very unorthodox thinking outside of the box which works. Not everything has to be so pure and technical. Hes amazing for sure
Love this Man, you students are so lucky to be there first hand to learn from the The Man and the Legend himself! 🙏💪 🇹🇭 ❤️👏
Saenchai 😍 always makes me happy
After each kick he says : 🤷♂️ so budy ?
A living Muay Thai legend.
Meybe is the ultimate answer of life
Seanchai still the legends
I tend to bring my foot back like that too.
To regain a good stance.
But turns out it works well to lessen the chance of people grabbing your foot
Sparring today. Yesterday kept getting my kicks grabbed, thanks Sanchaei.
It's like a reverse questionmark kick! Watch when he retracts his leg: he turns his knee down and slips out.
Beautiful 👌
What an honor it must be to stand next to this man
You will definitely feel that boxing workout tomorrow morning 😹
He’s so slick. Tremendous skills.
When you figure out American Top Team is actually Brazilian 🇧🇷
It was originally BTT and has many great brazilian fighters, but the owner of ATT is super super American ;)

The flexibility is god-tier.
Is this why he doesn’t twist his body all the way when kicking like others?
Nice observation, I think so!
the hip is still being twisted, this is where the power is from
He is but it's very subtle, like a boxer throwing a jab. The more you move the more your opponent can react.
