I met Zab in the 8th grade at Southview Jr High in 1992. I didn’t know he was dating the girl I had a crush on (Renee). On the way to my locker one day and I seen Zab fighting this bigger dude. I’ve never seen anyone ever throw a uppercut in a street fight so perfect. I said to myself at that moment “he could be a boxer one day”. Fast forward to 1997. I’m in the Navy watching TV on my ship and somebody mentioned a dude name Zab Judah. I only knew one dude ever name Zab. Once I saw his face I said gtfoh!!! The same dude I said that could be a boxer is actually a boxer now. And he was current champ at this time. Thanks for letting me share 😎
How does that apply here? Both are trained fighters. One on just boxing. The other in boxing as well as other mixed and structured martial arts. So one skill and size strength power and Zab takes the L.
@@Johnson11130 Michael Jai White has sought out people like Billy Blanks, Bill "Superfoot" Wallace, former pro fighters, to spar with and develop his skill! Plus this clip does not give MJW full statement and his explanation of what he was saying! White said "he is used to being hit by people his size and bigger!" He's speaking of physics, Michael is 235 and also said how "5 pounds makes a difference," part of force is weight! It is why boxing and wrestling has those weight limits and classifications! Also, strength is not necessarily weight related, there are smaller people and fighters with enormous strength! But a larger trained, experienced fighter in an actual controlled match should be able to beat a smaller fighter because the more weight you have the greater the force you are punching with! MJW was talking about the physics of him being 235 pounds and his body being conditioned to being hit by someone over 200 pounds, fighting someone only about 135 pounds like Bruce Lee! Most people dont fight nor are conditioned at that level so its only their opinion! The little guy is talking about street fighting which is different than an actual sanctioned match, where you are limited to what you can do! Most smart trained fighters dont street fight! Because they can still be arrested and go to jail for fighting someone that attacked or started a fight with them due to their training and most laws say they should be able to avoid hurting or killing someone due to the advantage they have.
That's what they forget to mention in the conversation...jai is legit trained...zab could drop a untrained big man but gonna be harder to drop a trained legit big man...
@@Goku_Kiyosaki at a point it becomes difficult to fight if the bigger guy can simply maneuver your whole body at will. I mean what are you going to do against a guy who can legitimately lift you up and move you around like a baby, AND he knows how to counter fast punches and kicks? You gonna grab him? Tackle him so he can fall on you? The amount of skill and luck needed to fight someone like that as a tiny, small dude is immeasurable. I would almost say Skill is out of the equation at that point. I'm 6'3 and I remember literally picking up a 5ft guy off the floor and throwing him around into walls. It was so one sided on the weight side that the fight needed to be stopped before anything could really happen past that point.
Everyone who gets knocked out gets knocked out by a punch they didn't expect (unless they wanted to get knocked out on purpose by a specific punch... Which I doubt)

@@stevenwilliams7041 better get a gun cuz you assume cuz we’re bigger you’re faster huh? Pfft that knife ain’t gonna work like you think it is buddy, been there done that
The reason why so many people take issue with that statement because saying that envelop said that’s the only thing that matters. Now many of us know that’s not the only thing that matters. But that’s like people who see someone who’s 7 feet tall and automatically assume hey they’d be a great athlete. No because they don’t know how to play basketball and their athletic skills are piss poor trash. It’s the same difference don’t go off of what you can see because you can easily lose sight of what’s most important. Could Michael J White beat Mike Tyson? No way in hell. Could Bruce lee beat Mike Tyson? Definitely. But it wouldn’t be easy. Many people fail to realize Bruce Lee dropped people who were literally football player sizes. These are athletes they train every single day. They couldn’t touch him they couldn’t hurt him they could do nothing to him. He manipulated life-size athletes like that on a daily humiliating them. Some of these athletes became his students because they saw how good he was. Men known for their strength and their speed whatever skill they had in the form of combat or athletic ability humble themselves in the presence of Bruce Lee because none of them could defeat him. And these men are the size you are the size Michael Jai White is taller stronger just as athletic if not close to or near that level. And none of them could beat him. Jim Kelly I’m for sure spar with Bruce Lee but before he sparred with Bruce Lee he saw Bruce Lee did to people around his skill level. And they couldn’t touch him. The most dangerous man on the planet. But by the constant sparking debate because the American mindset is oh sports sports if you don’t have these trophies yes boxing is a definitely a dangerous sport. But it has rules. Is it more dangerous to fight in a ring or is it more dangerous to fight somebody anywhere in this world outside? Bruce Lee fought people without rules that’s more dangerous. Because anything goes in the street fight. If for whatever reason all of his friends never talk about who he fight. So that must mean when he was alive he told him hey you don’t tell anybody about who I fight or you don’t reveal what happened in the matches. We know Bruce Lee was successful in undefeated because while he was alive not one master came out and said they beat them. They have that much respect for him even if they did like him because they knew his skill level was unmatched.

In movies, yes. Not in actual fighting though. He is like bruce lee, but atleast bruce lee was humble enough to understand that actual fighting experienced matters and he doesn't have it.
Weight only matters when there’s rules to the fight. Other then that in the streets with no rules weight is just a factor but doesn’t dictate the outcome.
I believe Zab on this. A young Zab in his prime was nothing to be played with. He was super flash and strong. Very quick footwork, reflexes and hand speed.
that only applies if the skill level is even you really think michael jai white would beat somebody like conor mcgregor? 🤣🤣. little mcgregor would turn white into fried chicken in less than 1 round.
Id argue with a 60 day training camp, considering the shape White is in during the initial agreement. He's probably fuck up most UFC fighters, garnering a few exceptions. He gets invited to train with some of best athletes in the world regularly...
@@michaelmnnHe’s never competed in any form of professional combat and you think he would beat a UFC fighter? You don’t understand the difference between just knowing techniques , vs being under bright lights against an opponent that is highly experienced in inflicting/taking damage.

True story: a guy I knew very well who was 5’2 at best and weighed around 119lbs once got in a fight with a guy who was easily 6’2. There was alcohol involved so the 6’2 guy’s Ego got inflated. Now my 5’2 friend had a history of fighting growing up, being a mischievous kid. The 6’2 guy threw the first punch and missed and the 5’2 guy hit him with one punch and knocked him out. Dropped him like a sack of potatoes. Size can help you but it’s not a guarantee. All it takes is 5lbs pounds of pressure to knock someone out. I still to this day don’t understand how my friend being as small as he was, was so strong.
Jai is an expert in several martial arts and kickboxing. His spinning back kick is considered one of the most techically perfect and powerfull kicks anyone has ever had. In a street fight i would never bet against Jai against anyone, although everyone has someone who can get them.
Under normal conditions, size is a factor in an outcome. However, Bruce Lee amplified his inherent power essence which enabled him to overpower an opponent greater than his weight range.
@@imoeazy your skill is a power multiplier, determining how efficient you are with your strength. Nothing more, nothing less. And size ≈ power. Just for the sake of argument, let's say you have 100 strength and 0.9 efficiency due to your splended technique and experience. And say, I have 150 strength and 0.3 efficiency, since I'm a meathead. I would outbench you any day, but you'd still beat me in a figth without breaking too much sweat. But if I have 400 strength, like Hafthor Bjornson or Eddie Hall, I just fold you in a pretzel. A coach once told me, that no matter how good you are, if the other guy has 130% your body weight, puncher's luck is your only hope. And I felt it myself. When I was around 91kg (did kickboxing) we had a friendly sparring/demo with a guy at 73kg (bjj practitioner). I admit, he's much more technical and overall a better athlete, but it doesn't change the fact I could resist his armbar with a simple curl. I was a bit of an ass there, true, and he punished me transitioning to another lock, also true. But could he get to that position, if I wasn't compliant up until that point? I don't know. And before you call BS, no, I couldn't break free that way, but I didn't feel any discomfort before he repositioned either. Power-wise, we had a tie there. So 130% your own weight and below is your general "wiggle room". The bigger you are, the wider it gets in absolute units. And the better you are, the wider it gets in relative units. I mean, big guys can also train, hence the super heavyweight division. Seriously, try sparring a couple weight classes up or down. It's really sobering.
A qualified fighter who's 2 times your size, will win the fight, 97% of the time. That's why all boxing, MMA and wrestling competitions, have Exact Weight, Categories! It's a huge difference. 👊🏾💪🏾💯

Yeah, somebody decided they were a good idea. But there have been lots of cases where the lighter guys beat the heavier guys.. Royce Gracie. Also Sakuraba allegedly got round the system of weight categories.. Fact is if they didn't have weight categories then you'd see far more cases like that.

I always hate when ppl say size means nothing. It’s not a substitute for skill but if you have two equally skilled fighters and ones bigger and stronger he’s going to have an advantage
3 things determine a fight Physicality - their size and body shape Conditioning - strength and stamina, physical and mental Skills - their training and technique To win, you have to out class your opponent in 2/3
@@Scott-fy7fm So if you in a Street fight,you saying you don't need conditioning To win you need to survive damage and dish it back...that's conditioning
True...but also White is specifically saying a leg kick. Trained with hands all his life but neither Mayweather or Zab had taken leg kicks before. They don't know how to defend and even if they block the kick perfectly it would likely drop them even if their leg wasn't broken. Pro kickboxers get their arms and legs broken blocking kicks. Could they beat a kick boxer in a boxing match? Of course. In an MMA fight or a street fight? Unlikely.
You can study a jump shot all you want… if you don’t actually play vs high level competition it won’t translate. MJW isn’t fight high level guys. He could’ve made more money as a fighter than acting if he was that good

I'd mostly agree but every strength comes with weaknesses. Mike Tyson for example found a lot of success with his style because a lot of those heavyweight guys he'd fight would be 6 feet or taller but because Tyson was 5 10 and generally shorter than then he was able to employ certain tactics against them that they wouldn't be able to use against him so height can be double edged. Same with weight for a few reasons but most commonly because most "big guys" are actually just overweight and are mostly fat rather than muscle. Those bigger guys, whether it's muscle or fat, also tend to get tired faster and also struggle to move as fast. Still though you won't have a guy at 120 beating guys who are over 200 generally since the 120 guy will struggle to hurt the bigger guy even if he hits him
No it doesn't and I've sanctioned fights at 170 and at 225 and at 225 smaller guys were harder to deal with but at 170 I knocked out 210 sparring partner and we both were dog fighting, so no it doesn't matter if you know how to fight!

When the dude with size also knows how to fight….it absolutely matters
Right, especially if the big guy has a strong neck and can take blows from small guy.
not if u have luck and know karate
It matters even when they don’t. It’s not gonna make them win the fight against someone who does know how to fight, but it’s definitely gonna give them an advantage compared to someone smaller and can’t fight, fighting someone who can fight. Size isn’t always gonna matter a lot, but it’s always gonna matter at least a little
If you can keep your distance and keep landing shots that big guy will walk away hurting

Heavy-weight what? Certainly not boxers‼️
I met Zab in the 8th grade at Southview Jr High in 1992. I didn’t know he was dating the girl I had a crush on (Renee). On the way to my locker one day and I seen Zab fighting this bigger dude. I’ve never seen anyone ever throw a uppercut in a street fight so perfect. I said to myself at that moment “he could be a boxer one day”. Fast forward to 1997. I’m in the Navy watching TV on my ship and somebody mentioned a dude name Zab Judah. I only knew one dude ever name Zab. Once I saw his face I said gtfoh!!! The same dude I said that could be a boxer is actually a boxer now. And he was current champ at this time. Thanks for letting me share 😎
That’s a fire 🔥 ass story
Thanks for sharing, it’s cool he wasn’t talking out his ass when he said he’s beat up guys 3x his size
Thank you for your service.
He was already a boxer by 8th grade, he started boxing at age 6. He went pro at 18.
That’s dope! Thanks for sharing
“Height don’t fight…. Unless they actually KNOW how to fight”
I agree 90% with you
And he sure knew but was very humble something bout the quiet ones man you can feel the energy When theyre around very dangerous people
Lol height and weight are two different things
Yup
How does that apply here? Both are trained fighters. One on just boxing. The other in boxing as well as other mixed and structured martial arts. So one skill and size strength power and Zab takes the L.

Simple as that.
Other than movie stuff and a form karate match what actual fights have you seen from him?
@@Johnson11130 Michael Jai White has sought out people like Billy Blanks, Bill "Superfoot" Wallace, former pro fighters, to spar with and develop his skill! Plus this clip does not give MJW full statement and his explanation of what he was saying! White said "he is used to being hit by people his size and bigger!" He's speaking of physics, Michael is 235 and also said how "5 pounds makes a difference," part of force is weight! It is why boxing and wrestling has those weight limits and classifications! Also, strength is not necessarily weight related, there are smaller people and fighters with enormous strength! But a larger trained, experienced fighter in an actual controlled match should be able to beat a smaller fighter because the more weight you have the greater the force you are punching with! MJW was talking about the physics of him being 235 pounds and his body being conditioned to being hit by someone over 200 pounds, fighting someone only about 135 pounds like Bruce Lee! Most people dont fight nor are conditioned at that level so its only their opinion! The little guy is talking about street fighting which is different than an actual sanctioned match, where you are limited to what you can do! Most smart trained fighters dont street fight! Because they can still be arrested and go to jail for fighting someone that attacked or started a fight with them due to their training and most laws say they should be able to avoid hurting or killing someone due to the advantage they have.
Jai ain’t just some weight lifter he’s actually trained in combat for most of his life

I mean what are you going to do against a guy who can legitimately lift you up and move you around like a baby, AND he knows how to counter fast punches and kicks? You gonna grab him? Tackle him so he can fall on you? The amount of skill and luck needed to fight someone like that as a tiny, small dude is immeasurable. I would almost say Skill is out of the equation at that point. I'm 6'3 and I remember literally picking up a 5ft guy off the floor and throwing him around into walls. It was so one sided on the weight side that the fight needed to be stopped before anything could really happen past that point.

It might matter because nobody knows what's going to happen in a fight
I believe Zab. He probably knocked out 6'5 6'6 dudes. They were probably untrained or got knocked out by a punch they didn't expect.
Everyone who gets knocked out gets knocked out by a punch they didn't expect (unless they wanted to get knocked out on purpose by a specific punch... Which I doubt)

Size absolutely matters. We have weight classes for a reason. Can a small guy knock a big guy out? Sure. But size definitely matters.
Size matters when both are world class trained. If not it doesn't matter in real life circumstances
The reason why so many people take issue with that statement because saying that envelop said that’s the only thing that matters. Now many of us know that’s not the only thing that matters. But that’s like people who see someone who’s 7 feet tall and automatically assume hey they’d be a great athlete. No because they don’t know how to play basketball and their athletic skills are piss poor trash. It’s the same difference don’t go off of what you can see because you can easily lose sight of what’s most important.
Could Michael J White beat Mike Tyson? No way in hell. Could Bruce lee beat Mike Tyson? Definitely. But it wouldn’t be easy. Many people fail to realize Bruce Lee dropped people who were literally football player sizes. These are athletes they train every single day. They couldn’t touch him they couldn’t hurt him they could do nothing to him. He manipulated life-size athletes like that on a daily humiliating them. Some of these athletes became his students because they saw how good he was. Men known for their strength and their speed whatever skill they had in the form of combat or athletic ability humble themselves in the presence of Bruce Lee because none of them could defeat him. And these men are the size you are the size Michael Jai White is taller stronger just as athletic if not close to or near that level. And none of them could beat him. Jim Kelly I’m for sure spar with Bruce Lee but before he sparred with Bruce Lee he saw Bruce Lee did to people around his skill level. And they couldn’t touch him. The most dangerous man on the planet. But by the constant sparking debate because the American mindset is oh sports sports if you don’t have these trophies yes boxing is a definitely a dangerous sport. But it has rules. Is it more dangerous to fight in a ring or is it more dangerous to fight somebody anywhere in this world outside? Bruce Lee fought people without rules that’s more dangerous. Because anything goes in the street fight. If for whatever reason all of his friends never talk about who he fight. So that must mean when he was alive he told him hey you don’t tell anybody about who I fight or you don’t reveal what happened in the matches. We know Bruce Lee was successful in undefeated because while he was alive not one master came out and said they beat them. They have that much respect for him even if they did like him because they knew his skill level was unmatched.

@@igorchistyakov8876 I can also say the bigger they are the harder they fall. But that's not completely true
@@imoeazy your skill is a power multiplier, determining how efficient you are with your strength. Nothing more, nothing less. And size ≈ power.
Just for the sake of argument, let's say you have 100 strength and 0.9 efficiency due to your splended technique and experience. And say, I have 150 strength and 0.3 efficiency, since I'm a meathead. I would outbench you any day, but you'd still beat me in a figth without breaking too much sweat. But if I have 400 strength, like Hafthor Bjornson or Eddie Hall, I just fold you in a pretzel.
A coach once told me, that no matter how good you are, if the other guy has 130% your body weight, puncher's luck is your only hope. And I felt it myself.
When I was around 91kg (did kickboxing) we had a friendly sparring/demo with a guy at 73kg (bjj practitioner). I admit, he's much more technical and overall a better athlete, but it doesn't change the fact I could resist his armbar with a simple curl. I was a bit of an ass there, true, and he punished me transitioning to another lock, also true. But could he get to that position, if I wasn't compliant up until that point? I don't know.
And before you call BS, no, I couldn't break free that way, but I didn't feel any discomfort before he repositioned either. Power-wise, we had a tie there.
So 130% your own weight and below is your general "wiggle room". The bigger you are, the wider it gets in absolute units. And the better you are, the wider it gets in relative units. I mean, big guys can also train, hence the super heavyweight division.
Seriously, try sparring a couple weight classes up or down. It's really sobering.
It's at a point where now, the appropriate advice is to not underestimate a larger man who knows what he is doing.
A big dude who’s in shape & trained in martial arts is not somebody you want to see Zab

Skills - their training and technique

You right. If we are only using our hands
Same true for a fighter thats been using their legs. 1 kick anywhere
You said hands, u forgot homie is utilizing hands And Feet. Not to mention grappling
True...but also White is specifically saying a leg kick. Trained with hands all his life but neither Mayweather or Zab had taken leg kicks before. They don't know how to defend and even if they block the kick perfectly it would likely drop them even if their leg wasn't broken.
Pro kickboxers get their arms and legs broken blocking kicks. Could they beat a kick boxer in a boxing match? Of course. In an MMA fight or a street fight? Unlikely.

I understood that reference.
It doesn't matter what we're talking about, size *Always* matters, as long as you know what you're doing
I'd mostly agree but every strength comes with weaknesses. Mike Tyson for example found a lot of success with his style because a lot of those heavyweight guys he'd fight would be 6 feet or taller but because Tyson was 5 10 and generally shorter than then he was able to employ certain tactics against them that they wouldn't be able to use against him so height can be double edged. Same with weight for a few reasons but most commonly because most "big guys" are actually just overweight and are mostly fat rather than muscle. Those bigger guys, whether it's muscle or fat, also tend to get tired faster and also struggle to move as fast. Still though you won't have a guy at 120 beating guys who are over 200 generally since the 120 guy will struggle to hurt the bigger guy even if he hits him
If a bigger guy drops a smaller guy
It means nothing.
Big guys r used to being top dogs
The truth is smaller guys knock-out bigger guys all the time
No it doesn't and I've sanctioned fights at 170 and at 225 and at 225 smaller guys were harder to deal with but at 170 I knocked out 210 sparring partner and we both were dog fighting, so no it doesn't matter if you know how to fight!

@Jayson Boyd Who ever said that? U internet trolls are some goofy,ignorant MF'S. I said my dad always told me that. Sorry u have a bad understanding.
@@jaysonboyd4103 he didn’t say he made it up. Reread the comment Fam. Reading is fundamental.
I love Mike last response like "cmon,do i really even have to entertain this question?" 🤣🤣
The common denominator for the little guys out there fighting big ass dudes- Brass Knuckles
David and Goliath
Size never matters.
Spoken like a true little man, and it has nothing to do with how tall you are… they have weight classes for a reason.
😂 And some of us prefer to be in different weight classes! Underestimating your opponent will always get you into bad positions. Yeh size does matter, it matters when you fall.
And Zab has fought in 3 different weight classes
White is just a actor
@@eugenereeves418 I think acting is a side gig for him. I think fighting is his thing.
@@NotKilgamesh White is a black belt actor who has been acting since the 90s. He has never fought professionally
@@eugenereeves418 I was saying that how he pays his bills is by acting. But fighting is what he works to improve at. I am pretty sure he has black belts in a few different things.
He probably doesn’t want to do it as a profession more or less for personal reasons.
Zab knows DAMN WELL that he ain't fightin no heavyweight in the ring 😂
Between train guys with skills sizes does matter
He would
@@MrDiMES123 get his ass beat lol zab talk to much
Zab is the real fighter of the two
@@thekratosmeatrider not if get them legs kick from under him y'all think MJW don't know how to scrap
If two guys are equally skilled the bigger guy will win
And all the little shaolins Laughed 😂
Bruh this is no ordinary big dude....bruh can fight like fr.
he could still get hurt bad by Zab
We have never seen him in an actual fight!! A real fight... sparing isn't fighting
You can’t be serious 😂
A boxers punch is different from any other martial artist as it is their main weapon. Zab could knock MJW out
@@kaushitwakafidi you think mjw would let zab just punch him nah he moving around fhen taking them legs out
Never let your ego get the better of you.
