Sparring Thai Fighters - Khongsittha

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ส.ค. 2019
- I am here at Khongsittha Muay Thai, one of my personal favourite gyms in Bangkok, Thailand. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to spar with two of the Thai fighters/instructors here. One of them, 42 years of age with 145 fights and the other with over 200 fights. Obviously, both of them gave me a good beating! If you ever visit Bangkok, I recommend you visit this gym!

For those of you who don’t understand the noise thai people make when sparring. I’m a thai amateur fighter who born and bred here and basically to explain it is that we make that sound as kind of a teasing and to keep it light. If we just do sparring quietly then it will build tension and we automatically start to get rougher and rougher so the noise is basically to tell the other person that “I got you with that one” and a way to friendly tease the other person.
interesting! I actually didnt know the reason behind it, and simply just though of it as a Thai style thing. thanks for sharing!
@@MMAShredded I got that they were teasing though!
Idk if it's the same, but in Vietnamese culture, oiii is a term associated when someone is hurt. So saying it in a teasing way would have the exact same mean, "Gotcha, that would've hurt."
OOOOOHHHH OOIIIIIIIIII
Makes a lot of sense.
Both were simply gorgeous. These sweeps and their calmness throughout the session. Hope you had at least as much fun sparring as I did watching, thanks a lot for the video!
I had an amazing time, thank you for watching!
@Jacob Fleming makes me wanna go back and train. It's the same with any sport... like football in the UK... we practice every day since kids so it's as easy as walking
Man they were trying the same throws that u perform with other people while sparring , were they strong enough plz share ur reviews how to fight a well trained muay thai guy
Thanks for giving me the biggest episode of fomo this year
haha!! :)
Lawrence here omg😍🔝
5:34 cant stress enough how sick and yet so simple this sweep was. Amazing!
thanks for watching!
I know right... I had to rewind a few times to see what he did there.
4:42 the head movement here is sickkk...damnnn
thanks for watching!
So beautiful to watch!!!!!
Dude is also 42, thats impressive.
4:38
Speechless. Staggering head movements. Wow
thanks for watching!
Calm down
Great vid tho 👍🏻
@@MMAShredded no thank you
Wth
I feel sorry for those upcoming mma fighters who doesn't watch Jeff. They are missing out on quality content .
hahaha thanks Anas! I really appreciate it!
my name jeff
@@bewaterlee9857 are you sure ?
@@iowa4508 sure what
Akira Kush same lol
like it so much man, i never seen your channel before, we are brazilian fighting channel too.. Good spar man
thanks brother!
what a great sparring session so technical , after this Jeff has + 5 accuracy +5 speed + 10 technic
hahahahahahahahaha! thanks bro
Trained at this gym for a month, absolutely loved it. The older guy is indeed a beast in the clinch and makes everything look so effortless it almost feels emberassing haha.
Black tiger also total beast. Remember him holding pads for me and constantly putting me on my ass with trips, sweeps etc all while padholding and me knowing it was coming sooner or later lmao
haha nice! thanks for watching!
Jeff has the amazing ability to counter every kick with a kick of his own. Wonder how many years of drilling that takes to accomplish!
you should do the kick, kick back drill! you can find it in my 6 dutch kickboxing drills video! I do that all the time it and really helps with my reaction!
Kick kick drill is so fun
My man I've been waiting for this one all week.
haha lots more coming!!
Thais fighters are so skilled. Nice video !!
yeah they are! thank you!
Love this channel! Actual sparring footage is so hard to come by in this sport. I love how you share the content freely & not edit it to make yourself look dominant. It’s very raw & REAL. Much appreciation & I wish you all the best, you are a great fighter & what you’re doing for the mma community is huge 💯 you offer a realistic & observable opportunity for us young amateurs to grow & learn from the pros. Thank you 🙏🏻
thanks man I appreciate the feedback!
Love your videos . Very humble and honest . A pleasure . Thank you .
thank you!!
These guys in Thailand are fantastic. They are so good in the clinch they grab all your kicks lol. One guy I sparred he came to canada for a seminar he would even grab peoples cut kicks lol.
hahah wow!
@@MMAShredded What exactly is the cut kick again? Is it the snapping easily retracted low kick?
I believe he's talking about the kick that is thrown at closer range than normal. It does so by coming down at a diagonal trajectory and a wider step before the kick, allowing it to "cut" into the opponent's quad.
@@ibrahimfahmi9249 Wouldn't that be easier to catch?
@@wrestler-kickboxer2524 The proximity makes it hard to catch the leg at a point where it won't slip. Plus you are more vulnerable than usual if you go for that catch because you are still in punching range
it's amazing how lean, strong and technical these fighters are. the dedication they have is unbreakable. i dont really like comparing but thailand is home to way more amazing fighters compared to the western world in my opinion. and credit to you for sticking in after the numerous trips. that's what makes a true champion. to humbly surround themselves with the best and improve even if it means to take a whooping. respect man!
thanks for watching!!!
Wow the sweeps are so good. The head movement from the first instructor is amazing!
Thanks for sharing! Really enjoyed watching the sparring sessions and learning quite a bit of strategies from them!
glad to hear man! thanks for watching!
Amazing watching these two. Reading,countering etc make it look so fluid. You can see where they picked the counter shot and flawless sweeping.
thank you for watching!
Great showing some of the take downs in slow-motion! Loved it!
Re-watching some moves over and over 😍
hahaha thanks for watching!
Enjoyed it, post more sparring sessions in Thailand! The vast knowledge the thais have about this sport is astounding.
thank you! I actually got a lot of exciting content coming soon!
Those sweeps tho ❤️, so effortless. There’s something special about learning muay thai in the motherland.
yeah ! I am going to make a video on them!
Thank you for showing humility in your sparrings that you take a beat too. Shows that you are for the art. A true martial artist that will continually improve through his career! I wish you nothing but the best in your one champ journey!!
thank you Lando!!
I have watched this video multiple times. Excellent footage.
hehe thank you!
The den of WARRIORS!!!!!! Those sparring sessions looked fun and at the same time full of kicking ads. Love it bro!!!!!
hahaha yeah!!! thank you jaycee
I miss training in Thailand so much! You think you are at a certain level in ability, then it is so humbling to realise how insignificant you are in the homeland of Muay Thai. Keep up the great content!
thank you!
Jeff, thank you for this beautiful peek into authentic Thai boxing.
This video is pure art.
thanks brother!
This shows how beautiful Muay Thai is. Music went well with the flow of your sparring and kept me smiling from all the sweeps. Thanks for sharing
thanks Tony!
Good vibes, just a beautiful Video showing the spirit of Muay Thai
thank you brother!
4:42 my man decided he wanted to box😂
hahahahaha
Great and fun video! Thanks for sharing!
thank you!!!
Dude I love your channel man it’s like exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
thank you brother!!
I love training at Khongsittha, I highly recommend anyone to drop by if they visit Bangkok!
Getting to be super reactive and confident sparring takes HARD WORK. If you are interested in the exact program I use to help develop these instincts: www.mmashredded.com/preptosparfight
Hello my friend! 😊 I have a question. Tell me please! I live in Moscow. In our training, sparring is tough and rough. Sometimes fighters get injured. In this video, I see a light sparring, but very technical. Tell me pls what sparring sessions should be? Hard or light?
If I may... sparring should mostly be light, with some occasional hard sparring. Otherwise like you said you get injured, also it is draining and tough to stay consistent and motivated (for me). Keep it light mostly that way it's fun, you look forward to it, which keeps you coming back and getting better, then throw in mutually agreed hard sparring. From what I've heard if you train in Thailand and go really hard in sparring regularly they'll think you are clueless.
✊🏾
I enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing! Great job!
Plz make the video of his sweeps and dumps!!! He a BEAST!!!
definitely will!!!
Fantastic sparring! Smooth sweeps and liquid head slips. They truly showed the art of Muay Thai. Keep these great vids coming!!
thanks brother!
Seems like you had a lot of fun ! Lot of respect from all 3 to each others ! And those sweeps were just so precise and pro ! Thanks for sharing the adventure !
thank you for watching!
I am your fan from Thailand!
Have a good day :)
thank you so much!
Great job. I was in thailand myself and trained for 4weeks and i was able to fight at asiatique with the company of my thai trainers and friends and plan to go back next year to fight again. Keep up the good work. 🙏🙏🙏
that's great man! would love to meet ya one day !
oh cool so you attended one of those vacation training camps?
MMAShredded i love too hit me up anytime.
Lopez Bunch Yes I did it was a experience that everyone should do if you train muay thai.
Such a chill video, vibe go crazy
thank you!
Those sweeps and their style are really beautiful to watch
thanks for watching!
Those trips, sweeps and throws were outstanding
yeah!! thanks for watching!
@@MMAShredded always!
It's kinda scary when a Thai guy stops shouting oouuaay while mid spar, makes you think you pissed them off now they want to hurt you 😂 most of the time they are fine though
haha!!!
This is way too relateable lol
Jeff, your sparring videos are a huge pleasure to watch. This was excellent..
thanks so much bro!
Thank you jeff. I learnt a lot by watching this. Thumbs up for this channel 👍👍
thanks for watching bro!
2:45 ultra instinct right there
haha!!
4:40 That head movement was nuts
thanks for watching!
Thanks Jeff. That looked fun, and you looked like you were enjoying it.
Dude I been watching your channel for a while. These Muay Thai guys are the real deal. I want to move to Thailand now!!!
thanks!!
Show his clinch! We need more good clinchers ! Btw I am in Kaewsamrit.
I def will make the video! thx!
@@MMAShredded Thanks for the quality content, look forward to the clinch video!
Nice sparring video, and guys remember thai fighters arent even using his elbows or knees
No shit it’s sparring
they are very skilled yes!
@@hames7497 clinching including knees as well as indicated elbow strikes aren't unusual at all in sparring.
No one is throwing elbows in sparring mate and play knees okay but nothing that can damage you.
WIKIPEDIA dude its Muay Thai sparring. He was pointing out, that they were using only a fraction of their technical capabilities, yet dominating the sparring. No big surprise, it’s the sport they’ve been training in since they were kids.
This is like someone pointing out how fascinating it is to see a sprinter beat a top triathlete at a 100m race with ease and you going like “BuT wHaT iF tHe SpRiNtEr hAd tO sWiM aNd rIdE A bIkE”
No shit, obviously he would dominate them on the ground, but that’s not the point here.
Thanks for sharing! Have an awesome day!
:)
Fun session, nice work spreading the art of Muay Thai! Bless your soul
thank you!!
The first guy you sparred, his dumps were so beautiful
yeah hes so smooth!
Is it a rule that somebody always has to shout "OOOUUUIIII" on every hit?
haha no its just their thing to do that though haha, them playing around
Just don’t be a poser by making that Thai sneeze like shout with every strike or ooooweee. That’s the equivalent of ossss in bjj. You might as well start kiaiing/hiya if you wanna pose
uchim4ta I only give an oooeeyyy if they catch me with a good kick or shot while sparring
@@uchim4ta633 osss comes from karate
It's a thai thing, they invented the art so I guess its part of it :D
Yesss! Instant like! Good luck on your journey bro! Will be following all the way!
thanks so much Johny! much appreciated!
Jeff always love these videos and your positive attitude!
thanks so much brother!
Jeff I've noticed that you hardly ever use teeps while it's a great tool. What's the reason of it? :)
I know its a good tool, I personally am no good at it and actually have been working on it since coming to thailand. im not use to it because my stance is usually wide and its hard to lead teep with a wide stance
@@MMAShredded I got it.😊 I was just curious. Keep it up.👍💪
Teeps are great for Muay Thai but crap for mma.
Awesome! How do you think they will fare in a MMA match with a wide stance and good takedown defense?
it will take some adjustments and getting use to but yes, I came from a traditional style of Muay Thai until I altered the stance and such for MMA!
Love this channel so much, it has helped inspire me to train Muay Thai like a beast 💯💯
thank you bro!!
Simply superb. Best sparring video ever. Thx
thank you!!
Suedam is brothers with Singdam "Black Lion" from Saenchai's gym

Man those clinch dumps look so effortless. I’m always amazed at how the top tier manipulate the opponent in close quarters. That first foot sweep the second guy did was super slick. The one he got while you were closing range. Love your vids man! You have earned every subscriber and deserve more.
