The whole "I can take leg kicks all day" argument always confused me. The people who train at getting hit in the legs a lot still try to check, block, stuff and avoid leg kicks, but someone who doesn't usually get hit in the legs at all thinks they'll just TAKE the leg kicks and keep on going? Like, where does that even come from?
ego, I had a friend of mine who's 6'1 and 210 lbs, I'm 5'10 and at the time we tried this I was 135 lbs. He did body building and some wrestling and said he could take leg kicks all day.

@@Jandro1083 I know why , he thought it was the same as soccer kicks , yeah you could get hit with those all day but a decent leg kick from Kickbox/ M.T is gonna cripple anyone , most untrained people cant take more then 2 kicks at best
I started off in Karate . Then learned boxing (soviet style) then got into kickboxing so i just use karate style kicks and round kicks with soviet style boxing which works with my outside fighting and bladed stance.
I been doing Boxing and Muay Thai for 17 years now, recently enrolled into Karate with my kid. The whole "bladed stance" thing is a myth, Karate stance is even more bladed than boxing and they check/block low kicks perfectly fine. I've been doing it for almost 20 years from the boxing stance. If you learn good boxing, meaning shifting your weight properly while keeping you footwork balanced and grounded, it's real easy to shift your weight to the back leg and raise your front one to block faster than the opponent's kick gets to you.
True i find in most of my sparring, with proper weight shiftingand balance i am still able to properly check kicks even in a bladed stance, i find that most partners tend to throw them fast and not very high on the tigh which allows me to most of the time block it high on the shin and sometimes with my knee. I beleive i learned this dtyle of checking from icy🧊mike🤏
What's there to know. One has punches. One has punches and kicks. There you go lol. And if you are transitioning, wouldn't that mean you are going to a kickboxing gym and wouldn't need youtubers to teach you through a screen?
@@Jandro1083he wouldn't know. he claims to be some kickboxing champ yet someone with actual skills called him out on his videos and was able to tell he is not very well trained. also the fact that, as you can see, his comments make no sense, shows how big of a Dunning Kruger effect he has
If he throws a low kick when u step in with a jab the low kick wont land clean. Having a tighter stance does not help the boxer in any way and it damn sure doesnt help the boxer when dealing with leg kicks. Keep the traditional boxing stance.
“Unfortunately”? So.… That's it? You are giving up? Because you are…”poor”?? God might have given you EXTRA insight OR a “Chin” OR a “KO power” Being from “lesser means” is what EVERY great fighter has in common with each other. Bro, DO NOT be your own worst enemy by “throwing in the towel” That's how your journey begins!
This 👆 the Best advice anyone could give you is right here, please listen to this man 💪✊ NEVER give up if you have a dream brother, fight for it with everything you've got 🫡✌️
I never plan on fighting a muay thai fighter, in the ring or in the street. But does checking their kicks with your knees and elbows work too? I believe that this would be a excellent deterrence
@@ArtistDaynz90 it's very smart actually, especially for high kicks. My Muay Thai instructor showed me how to properly block high kicks with my elbows. You have to use the area right at the end of you forearm before your elbow. It's one of the hardest parts of the body, so it won't break, and you don't have any nerves there, so it won't hurt you. I actually stopped 2 fights like that, my opponent couldn't continue after kicking me there because of their pain.
Do people know that there is a weak spot on the hamstring like above the top of the knee from behind? Cause Tawanchai landed a leg kick and his opponent's leg cramped up, ending the fight.
My english not the Best ….. but dont go near and after you jab hold your leg up for 3 second and dont go forward when you set foot again and hold distance. Right ???
Actually, he says when you jab, dont be in a bladed stance (side stance) for power. Sacrifice some power because it will put your whole body weight on the lead leg which makes it difficult to lift (and block kicks)
My experience says the opposite Its easier to get in and out with a bladed stance thats why the karatekas use it and they're the fastest But like Shane said a scare one is easier to defend from kicks
@@edstringer1138why would you throw a check hook after a parried jab all he has to do is bring his right hand up. He just parried your jab does that not register?
Than you are too slow at kicking and shouldn't try it lol. Also maybe just don't throw leg kicks in street fights anyways. Probably will just get you jumped.
@@averysimmons2478 we aren't talking jabs , When he throws a kick you side step and check hook like it was a punch . I've been boxing since the 70s as a child and still box , even do a little training of the new generation
Why would boxers need to worry about leg kicks in street fights lol? It's not a movie, not about to have a kungfu fight in the streets. All I've ever seen in the streets is, the person who throws a leg kick is the person who gets beat up lol, everytime.
@@ArtistDaynz90 are you seriously saying the guy who has more weapons in his arsenal is at a disadvantage vs a boxer? 😂 "why worry about leg kicks" we found the person who never took a leg kick irl😂
@@EwMuva no I'm saying people don't throw leg kicks in the US in a street fight. And the people who do, don't even know what they are doing. But that being said, "more weapons"? The best muay thai champion in the world, is still getting mopped by the best highschool wrestler in a street fight lol. One take down, that's it. Realistically you only need good hands and good wreslting. And you will win most street fights. Kicks are silly to throw in a street fight. So you don't need more weapons, you need the right weapons.
Well I'm a boxer and I can eat leg kicks. Sure I kickboxed for a long time too, but I'm still a boxer that can take leg kicks lol. But who is this directed too and for what purpose? Sounds like a self defense thing, but do you see many proper low kicks in a street fight in the US lol? Or even kicks at all? They would probably clown on you and then jump you in philly if you did that. But seriously, kicking in a street fight is silly. Hands and wreslting, that's all you need for non competition fighting. So if you get in a fight with someone out in society, (which you shouldn't anyways) hands and good old wraslin will beat everything. Even a simple two years of wreslting in highschool does it for the average person. But of course you ended with the sells pitch, and then I understood. So where is your gym at anyways?
With the growth of MMA, the "general person" knows a lot more about fighting. I teach out of Beacon MMA in Cherry Hill, NJ and we have a lot of members who come in with more of a bladed stance, so this drill has been really helpful for them.
@fighttips yeah but how many times has that been successful? How many videos can you point to showing MMA wannabes in the US successfully landing kicks in street fights? Kicks that have a great effect, that is? I can think of maybe 3 off top. No need to check a leg kick if you can catch a single or double as a counter. Kicking for the streets is not where it's at. Hands and wreslting, no mas. I like kicking, but you won't catch me kicking or checking a kick in the streets lol. I'd be embarrassed after I'm done winning the fight. I'll use my hands, and if they do anything else but use their hands, I'll use wreslting. But to each their own.
@@ArtistDaynz90I've seen enough street fights ending with a kick the opponent has no idea how to deal with to know not to take your comments seriously if u rlly think an MMA fighter will more often than not lost to a boxer in the street instead of a ring just because they threw kicks, you're hilarious
It’s not hard I was sparring in an open gym that was boxing and Muay Thai and I’ve had had some jerks see me without shin pads and still kick me😂😂 It only took a few seconds to adjust and I was able to pick up checking on the fly😂😂 and kicked their ass😂😂 It was easy to pick up checking as long as you are coordinated… Likewise they had no answer for a boxers jab the speed and power shocked them they were not used to it😂😂
You know leg kicks are very very rare in s street fight and even if tried crowded conditions like a bar will make it unlikely ,,, 30 years boxing, WC, and judo and former bouncer Ps You ever hear of a counter hook , Well it works for kicks
@@fighttipscome on bro, you "study street fight footage"? Yeah we all can youtube street fights lol. Literally just came off a bing of watching "skatepark fights" for no good reason except that I was bored. Funny for sure, but didn't see any kicks. Maybe in other countries (soccer coutries), they throw kicks a lot. But in the US, it's still very rare. And usually the footage where someone throws a kick in the US, they are the ones losing the fight. Because they watched the UFC too much and thought they could just kick someone and the fight would be over. But instead they throw that silly untrained kick, and then get mopped with wild untrained people punches lol. But still lose none the less.
@@ArtistDaynz90almost like you have to be good at kicking for it to work, no? you made an absolutely garbage point lol. "people in the US don't kick" oh so I guess that means kicking is bad even though they're more powerful and have a farther range than punches when u set them up right. makes sense to me buddy
Yep , there only one punch in boxing , a jab ....)) And of course there no combination punches in boxing . And the best , simply best defence against jab is pary and low kick ....)) And who the hell needs power , screw you keokushin karate world . And it a good explanation to all this , boxing is a last in your list of skills . It shows ....))
That sht was hard to read bud. I can't tell if you are clowning on him or trying to glaze. But F learn how to put the English language together please. Don't worry Shane, my old time friend, I got your back pal lol.
keep crying when boxers in the UFC themselves suffer from leg kicks until they adjust their stance, proving Shane's point. you would think they know boxing combinations, no? plus if you do this stance, it doesn't matter what combo u do lmao ur stance will be consistent
@@patootie3529 Simple fact , jabs are faster then leg kicks...)) Distance to go is shorter.You parry one, low kicking guys leg and suddenly eating second jab to nose .And hell with jabs, it could be a left-right combination, simply that.Right cross to a temple is a good price for low kick ...?))Parry and low kick means you perry and be standing on one leg for a split second .For good boxer, some one standing on one leg is a non moving target .And there lots of knockouts in UFC in that fashion, check your basics .Low kicks are not recepy for everything...))
