The biggest mistake the MMA guy made was not being the movie’s main character.
He never stood a chance

No kidding. Does a back story included wife beating, drug dealing, and racism?
He's a White guy.
@R Baker look at the butthurt from you bud. Preparation H should take care of that.
@R Baker your parents really did a number on you
You mean his mistake is not being the director of the movie? 😂
I tried using this technique but I lost badly because the other dude couldn’t wait for me to get my flash backs in. This movie lied.
*LMAO*

maybe the technique doesnt suit you maybeeeee
Fight against the wind is good for the mind, but you have to train real fight as well, otherwise will not work in real life!

The "unrealistic" thing here is that a lot of fighters are MMA nerds who enjoy new technique. It's a lot more likely that fighters in the gym would be like, "Oh, wait, you know traditional karate? Cool! I never got into it." And the whole thing breaks down into a training session for the guys who aren't actively training for a pro fight.
Yeah most experience I have seen in the gym is more curiosity than anything else when seeing something new
And you’d get smacked in most gyms calling someone “blackychan”.
But there _have_ to be at least _some_ toxic douches in a sport that revolves around being physically stronger and more able to beat up your opponent, especially when steroids are thrown into the mix, lol.
@@thelittlestgiant Yeah, but those guys get tossed out on their ear real quick. It’s not easy to make money running an MMA studio. You need to have a rep for welcoming all skill levels and types of you want to make money. Toxic people get tossed out quick.
I’ll be super duper generous and suggest that our antagonist is dehydrated as hell from trying to cut weight for a fight. Hard to be polite when your brain is a raisin. Give him a pack of Gummi Bears and 7 gallons of Gatorade. He’s probably a lot more mellow then. :)
@@thelittlestgiant Douchebags do exist but they don't stick around for long or they get kicked out. This is a twats stereotypical view of what whites act like to other people is what it really is.
When I was a young man, I studied traditional Karate, then followed it with Judo and Taekwondo. After I learnt all I could I studied Krav Maga, Ninjutsu and then Sambo. Finally, I moved onto Thai Kickboxing, and finished with Kung Fu.
Then I put down the magazine and went outside.

I remember one time I was at IHOP late at night. A group of people were being seated at a table near us. One guy asked if he could switch seats with another guy. That guy asked why, in which the other guy responded, "I like to keep my back facing the wall, it's a karate thing." Karate is about discipline, respect, honor... and taking every opportunity to let someone know you take Karate.
My dad was a police officer. He always sat where he could observe the largest portions of a crowded restaurant as possible. He never explained why until I was much older, and his only explanation was "if there's a problem, I want to see it coming"
Had nothing to do with karate, and he never announced it. People who flash their black belts around, or their six months of mixed martial arts, they rarely perform in actual real life scenarios.
I'd bet on a fresh army recruit just out of basic training over a standard five year karate student any day, particularly how training for both goes in the US.

You can think what you will of cops. I really don't care.
The big lesson here, as a fighter, is to note your opponent's strengths, mannerisms, and patterns...and prepare your training accordingly. MJW is sooo underated as a fighter, and as an actor. I really wish he were in more films.
You never fought in your life😅
I have no martial arts training but I think I would fare pretty well against anyone throwing slow-motion roundhouses over and over.
With respect from Bruce Lee “I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” Never ever underestimate people that do over and over. Again, with respect.
they slowed down for the film sake, if they use the proper speed of the technique you can't enjoy the feels dude so be careful saying that in front of people who train

Whatever discipline you come from, fundamentals and ability to adapt when shit goes wrong can never fail you…
I have studied Okinawan Uechi Ryu and several other styles of karate. Uechi Ryu incorporates a wide variety of karate, judo, strikes, blows, blocks, kicks, holds, Aikido-like throws, joint locks and take down techniques. It is a very versatile and strong style that came from China to Japan. Still, the best way to "win" a fight is to not be IN a fight. Everybody gets hurt in a fight, including the winner. It's not like the movies.
"...style that came from China to Japan" ... I did not know that.
As a rule, Okinawan Karate came from Southern Chinese Boxing, namely Fujian White Crane style.
@@otisbeck5327 Right. Actually, if I remember correctly Okinawan Uechi Ryu originally came from India to China and then from China to Okinawa.
@@1notgilty by way of the Indian Buddhist priest and Ch'an (Zen) patriarch Bodhidharma, known to the Chinese as Ta Mo (Dah-moh) and Daruma to the Japanese. He is our great grandfather as far as Karate goes.
@@otisbeck5327 That sounds exactly correct. Thank you for the clarification of the various names by which the Indian Buddhist priest was known.

Having seen the moves being practiced it's hard to imagine how they're viable. It's actually very interesting seeing a person present and how the moves are meant to work
I took a karate class for a few months from an older traditional martial artist. I can't remember his nationality.
The one main lesson I learned is that freestyle karate is vastly different then training. The purpose of training, and practicing those moves over and over is not to use those moves in those orders, it is to train the muscles to quickly respond in specific ways.
During freestyle karate, for example, you don't crouch. You dance, keep moving, keep your opponent where you want them in relation to you. In training, you crouch and lunge and dip down. The purpose of training is to build muscle, and muscle memory.
In freestyle, strikes are quick, and rarely land. You never want to get into a brawl like you do with judo or ju jitsu. You take advantage of openings when you can, and avoid your opponent doing the same.
That's why other fighting styles are often superior. Jujitsu trains in grappling and close quarters combat. All a jujitsu master has to do is grab a jab or strike from a karate master, and the fight is basically over.
Karate is a good introductory fighting style, learning the basics. But branching out, particularly to fighting styles that promote pressure training (ring fighting and actual controlled combat) is going to provide a much greater chance of actually making it through a real life fight. Even with the training I've done (not just in karate), in an actual street fight there is no predicting the enemy. Highly trained officers are killed because the person they were trying to take down threw a punch in a way the officer didn't see coming.
@@matthewbrown5228, yep. In my youth I was small compared to now. Started hand-to-hand and then Tang Soo-Do in high school. Continued Tang Soo-Do on first tour in South Korea along with Yudo and did some Hapkido training on my second tour. Outside of class I only had to use my training two times. Since I left the Army in 1981 I have not had to use it but I also never go looking for a fight. As an over-the-road driver for 27 years I went to some rough parts of our country and never really had a problem except once in Maryland. No blows exchanged but I think he got the idea I wasn't the one.
@@donotneed2250
Been a trucker myself! Not nearly as long, two years over the road (one hauling tankers) and then my wife had our first baby and we both decided that I needed to be closer to home, but I loved the road!
My son trained at American Top Team in Creek for about 4 years. And I can tell you that there were no assholes in that gym. All the fighters were really nice and polite, very friendly and humble too.
As should be. i took martial arts (Taekwondo, Judo and BJJ) back in my college days. And the first rule we were told was to leave our ego by the door.
That's how it should be, the ones who are humble and respectful especially to new people are the ones who are successful in their craft and don't need to show off, losers like the fella in the video never last long in any actual decent fighting gym and are thrown out like the garbage they are very quickly.
I've been studying shotokan karate for 10 years and I can absolutely confirm that the technique being depicted here, called being the main character, is 100% effective. Unfortunately I've never mastered it because I keep getting beaten up when I try to use it.
Then maybe you have not used it effective enough keep training.
You forgot to be the main character 🤦
The only bad part about his technuiqe was that he kept his arm fully extended when blocking his opponents punch at the end. The video Tai chi vs mma has a good example of why you shouldnt do that.
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie
Lmfao
This is what every weeb imagines themselves to be like when they take up martial arts.

Good job! Your impression was perfect! 😊😊
@@rodrigosierpe5995 The only thing maximized here is you how pathetic you sound. LMAO.
Anyone that only uses one traditional technique will get their asses handed to them in MMA. Opponents don't just give openings like they do in this highly choreographed fluff piece.
Lmao
@@rodrigosierpe5995 found the weeb
The point here is to show that training with Katas prepare you for the actual application of the moves. There are many Katas in any given form of Karate, and each move in a Kata is against an invisible opponent you need to "see" in your mind. You imagine that you are actually blocking and striking, with dedicated and forceful moves, against a real opponent. The movie had the Karateka flashing back to the specific Katas that he had studied, in order to show you the application of those moves in a real fight. Once those moves are memorized, they don't need to be thought about; but rather they are automatically generated by the threat presented in that moment. An opponent usually "telegraphs" their intentions, and a studied pro will respond without thought, using a feint or block--mixed with a counterstrike when applicable.
I thoroughly enjoyed this segment, and I showed it to my son who is studying the same basic form of Karate I studied back in the 70's. He now has a better understanding of why Katas are so vitally important to Karate.
It's no coincidence this video now has 45 million views. It's a realistic interpretation of a professional Karateka's reaction to threats. I just wish the sound track was better....
Thats great to hear.I wish you and your son the best when it comes to karate and kata training.
The science behind karate is fascinating. Its essentially learning predetermined moves such that you can avoid the delay of reaction time that you would need when fighting conventionally and making decisions about what your next move is.
Yeah, but the problem with that is it assumes that your choreographed moves will match with the opponent. Once the opponent deviates from your predetermined choreography, you won’t have any natural way of responding
Thats why Karatekas train against every sort of attack there is. Every Punch, every kick. A scenario like that wont happen with full fledged Karatekas. They trained against every move, and even against many weapons, like knives and sticks. They learn to escape and counter locks and chokes. They learn to keep calm and focus through meditation and intensed focused muscle training. I seriously dont get why people call Karate less effective than other Martial Arts. Its primary use is for self-defence. It gets the job done.
@@TheZenhalilboy Karatekas usually don't even do sparring, just practice over-complicated and useless techniques in slow motion. See any professional karate tournament: you will hardly ever see any proper punches or blocks they practiced during trainings, just punching each other senselessly from 20 inches.
@@MrSaiyan333 Karate Tournaments are not meant to knock out your opponent. The Point of these tournaments is to win via points from clean strikes. Ever watched Karate Kid or Cobra Kai? They dont go punching and kicking till the opponent cant stand no more.
@@TheZenhalilboy I'm talking about Kyokushin, where it's usually not point based. But even if they want to win by points, why don't they use what they practiced before? Because those techniques are useless in a real fight, that's why.

They don't use any "classic" karate blocks, just randomly punching each other. And this is a world cup.
Of course in the real world if anybody acts like a middle school bully in any gym. They're normally kicked out immediately.
Yh lool ego left out the door
That's one of the things I like the most about most martial arts/MMA gyms. That sort if behavior isn't tolerated. (Usually)

@Jacob Monier Okay? Fuck his belt, show me his fight record.
When Jai has the desire to do any of his Martial Arts professionally (which it's far too late for btw.) that's when I won't doubt his skill.
Half the shit he says is bullshit, just go watch him talk about Kimbo Slice(AFTER he passed mind you), and all the bullshit he actually just made up about the Shaolin Temple.
Hey...i know what its like in the ring
Kumite is hard...harder than kata
This is why Kata is so important... To people who think it's just made up movements with no purpose.
With the practice of Kata the movement becomes part of you , it becomes a automatic response.
My Sensi taught us the first self defense move is not to be where you shouldn't be - second is to walk away whenever possible. third is to fight back so you can walk away.
Keep the fancy moves in the ring and for tournaments. Street karate is a lot different.
Os!!!

@@eriklarson9137 But you see, he was using that special karate move where you can temporarily slow down time (a side effect of this technique is that the world becomes black and white) and make your opponent disappear for a moment so that you can practice your counter attack. This was developed in the 12th century and is still very effective to this day.

@Mandalorian Patriot yeh but its depiction of effectiveness aint it. Karate master vs mma fighter is a matchup wr all know the result of
@Mandalorian Patriot thats just mma fighters who also trained in karate using aspects of karate, not a tradional karate fighter using only traditional karate. The guys you linked are mma fighters who are simply using karate to throw people off with the unconventional hard to predict attacks from creative angles not thought of in the traditional kickboxing/wrestling and grappling mix you tend to see in mma. And naturally when these flashy moves catch people off guard, they are highlights. What you fail to show is that their entire core game plan is not set in traditional karate stance and movements but rather around keeping true to the mma fundamentals and playing pick and mix with their karate skillset to catch people off guard like i said earlier. If you wanna prove your point, stick a traditional karate master or practitioner that isn't already an mma fighter into the octagon like the and see how it plays out. That's what i was talking about, not seasoned mma fighters getting creative lmao.
@Mandalorian Patriot karate here in the uk's dojos is quite different to whatever those guys you linked me were using. Although yeah i did think jiu jitsu was 99 percent grappling as that's all i've ever seen of it in the gracie foundation's training vids, and no i haven't heard of the samurai shit, sounds cool as hell wanna look into it later.

Karate is not my favorite martial art, or the only one I have studied, but that occasion, half a lifetime ago, was a moment you cannot teach. You must see it for yourself.
Just because this story is dramatized, does not mean it is not true. It was true for me.

Happend to me too in a real situation: doing a move from kata. I don't know how that happened as it was spontaneous, but it worked and saved someone else from being violently bitten by multiple attackers.
(It was the almost last move of Heian Sundan kata, the one where you do a fast turn)
It’s a blessing he happened to be practicing the very same moves he used before the fight
He practiced ALL the moves
that's the point
Really kind of the whole point of martial arts.
That's how practicing martial arts works. You practice the moves in repetition with no opponent, then try those same moves in the ring in order to calculate their effectiveness and your own efficiency with them. It's the difference between visualization and execution. Read a book.

I studied Shotokan in my 20s and it saved me alot of times when working at the local 7-11 on the graveyard shift. Shotokan has alot of throws and locks that were explained to me wrongly ( because alot of the instructors didn't know because they were never told) and when I went to other styles I would see the moves done correctly . I then went to Panantukan ( Filipino kickboxing) and Anis ( an offshoot of Fillipino Kali) .Shotokan came in habdy there too. and I learned even more about Shotokan doing empty hand Arnis techniques. and you can really end up with something real nice if you marry Karate and Kickboxing together. it worked for Lyoto Machida. so don't dicount traditional Karate. all martial arts have something to offer. otherwise I wouldn't still be around and I am now 60 and people say I look like I am 48 or 50. so experiment and keep kicking

OK THIS ONE IS GOOD LOL
That move was banned a few years ago, on the grounds that its name was far too long!

He did traumatize the solar plexus though. :D
That's so fake... Everyone knows that on real life the flashbacks are about a sad past.

@@miyu_myu21 That's how people get robbed or shot in the US.
It’s a good thing that the MMA guy telegraphed all his moves and didn’t take any angles or fakes, and also that when the dude caught the kick to his middle the kick didn’t hurt him
It must be easy to look this badass when your opponent telegraphs all his strikes from a mile away.
You know this is Hollywood when an MMA fighter takes on a traditionalist karate fighter and attempts zero takedowns...
And the way he atacks is not like a pro fighter, it's more like someone who got all his knowledge from an action movie, wait a sec ...
Yea an average mma fighter would probably shit on any karate master. In China there’s this random mma fighter that’s going around and absolutely destroying Chinese martial arts masters in seconds
@@verybored2416 Yeah that guy is a badass, beat up some gangsters to I'm pretty sure. He's hated badly in China, makes their fighting style seem to weak.

@@kyle18934 Haha, it's a cliché, but one that makes little sense. Sure there might be a few bullies in some places. But in most cases, fighters are way too occupied with their own training to focus on someone they don't even deem worthy.

@@BlondieTH-cam it is a weird cliche, I thought people would be dicks when I went to the gym for the first time. I'm glad I was mistaken
@@kyle18934 Haha, it's mostly a hollywood trope. An excuse for the protagonist to kick some ass.
That fight was so clean it almost looked choreographed
Yes I did 9 katas in gradings ,and at first I wondered what the moves meant ,but they make sense after hours and hours of practise.Even now at age 82 and 8 years of regular training from 72 to 1980. If someone makes a unexpected hand towards my face I auto block without even thinking about it.
It's made official that if someone use Karate, you must wait for his animation to complete first.
Japan invented the turn based rpgs, so it's only natural their marital arts follow the same rules.
Blacky Chan, Jet LeRoy he won with the comments alone.
Don't forget Tae Bro!
I was thinking the same thing. lol
How about Bruce Leroy 👍🏼
All fight training is useful. A true warrior trains for a fight but aims for peace. Be a warrior. Don't be a jerk.
I was in a fight once, it was 3 on 11, _but we knew Karate._ Ultimately it didn't matter, because those three guys beat the shit out of us.
Lmao
Damn i guess your dojo is not cobra kai
MMA never wins against martial arts in movies, its a fact. They can only ever win in real life.
that you think
MMA literally stands for mixed martial arts. As in they are both of martial arts in fact mma does actually consist of karate in itself.
It's the same thing.

If only karate and traditional martial arts were that effective in reality.
Every single punch and kick telegraphed for that movie magic!

Al Simons ain't nobody to fuck with.
@@decepticonmecha a little sun tan oil and his grappling is useless.
As someone who put too many years into karate I can honestly say it’s designed to teach people the importance of carrying groceries
Why?
So I shouldn’t continue karate?
I second this. Black belt test failed, because 70 year old dudes from Japan thought that my toes were once in a wrong position. Repeating the same moves over and over countless times felt pointless.
Also didn't get in shape with Karate. Got in shape by working out when I wasn't doing Karate.
It did teach me to throw a punch and reach with diffetent kicks without ever going out of balance, but no matter how good your tech is you can't do shit without muscles
@@kirogo1969 karate is OK as a sport, but useless in self defense, same as 99.9% traditional martial arts

No but physics disagrees very much
Fighters from the UFC see the same. As they also when interviewed says it's really legendary when they train with him. Even Jon Jones.

“The effectiveness of being cast as the hero in a movie about karate”
@Kaustav Chakraborty ?
Kaustav Chakraborty What a fucking retarded response...
It is true the movie does not show that karate is better or not everything depends on the person who uses it
"The effectiveness of be an MMA script hero" (FightVille) (Warrior) (Never Back Down)
I think we are even
Yep
Someone seems to have got confused... This is not real and doesn't show the effectiveness of anything.
David Kent yeah true and everyone should know by now that pretty much any martial art can be legit if trained with aliveness karate has done well in mma but it all depends on how they train and if they spar a lot
@@lukeg452 so true it doesn't matter what style you train in as long as you train full contact
brolly 247 yep see Stephen Thompson lyoto machida and gsp
someone who doesn't understand this calm and meditate style of fighting more like Kung Fu watch karate kid 1,2,3 and cobra Kai
And yes every style is good if u practice it correctly
but in my opinion the calm style ones are better than aggressive
but in street fights u gotta be aggressive if u want to win

All the guys making fun of traditional karate have never studied the martial arts.
I like when they swim in the ring. Nice butterfly style there
Ugh.. No one in gyms act this way. Everyone would boot that dude out the moment he started disrespecting others like that.
Agreed, been to atleast 5 martial art gyms and no one acts like this
Not if they are co-owners ;)
Then you have a little Morgan Freeman action, in the movie Million dollar baby.
Funny you say that, gyms might not have that but the white house surely has one who acts this way
You are wrong, search charlie zelenoff he is an asshole, just like that character
This man might of well just played Kung fu panda clips to us and said it's a accurate depiction of karate.

@@burgosmatthew I recommend the one against Shogun
@@burgosmatthew while he might have a background in Karate it’s still MMA
I used to train in karate. You will never use it in a street fight.
There’s a 40 something ammeter MMA fighter in China who went on a tour fighting the best practitioners of traditional martial arts in all of China. 95% of the time he beat them unconscious within 10 seconds, the other 5% was within the first minute. Most martial arts are exclusively practiced against other partitioners of the same art in only sparing match’s so they have 0 actual battle testing even in controlled environments. Workout regularly and due some boxing and your likely have more combat potential then most martial artist. The only real benefit to martial arts has is it teaches discipline and hopefully keeps you to a active work out routine
It looks like he's ready to do some serious earthbending lol
@Asian fiery air*
Spine bending
Yeah the movements he used were very similar to earthbending.
Considering that they based earthbending moves on traditional martial arts, you're not necessarily wrong.
Earthbending is "Hungar KungFu". Toph uses "Southern Praying Mantis Style Kungfu"
Firebending is "Saolin KungFu"
Waterbending in "TaiChi"
Airbending Is "Buguazhang" known for its Circular motions.
We saw how effective traditional karate was when the UFC first came into existence.
Cobra got what he deserves no more bully or showing off learned the lesson well done Walker.

@@Bigdaddyluv68 everyone knows that boxing focuses on head movement and foot work much more than other fighting sports/martial arts
@TekkenVirus Virus I think the real reason is because they teach you that in boxing classes. Of course sparring plays an important part but you wouldn't come up with that on your own.
Super effective!
Especially when it says so in the script!
Yup! That's exactly how it goes. All the moves you just practiced will be relevant in the fight. Karate wins!
