Seth, it must have been a lot of work to bleep out everything Mike was saying in the foul language scene! It was a lot of fun making this video with you guys.
I guess, Seth just took a 2-minute bleeb und cut a piece out here and there and hoped, to just get one of the few moments. I was nearly in tears laughing. You guys have such a great chemistry. It started with the fishing hooks, then the snusiv language and finally Seth using Ramsey as a shield: one giant laugh. And still informative
i think now days it'd just lead to more slams which they want to get away from as well. But i do see the safety issue with trying to throw them out, its like an 6 foot drop to a 3 foot wide grated metal platform which is also about 3 feet off of concrete or gymnasium floor.
Icy Mike needs to do a video on the self defense value of always being covered in Vaseline and hurling abuse at your attacker. Hell, there's another class he could offer: phrases to make your attacker feel terrible while you fish hook their mouth apart.
Missed a great opportunity to talk about knees to the head on a grounded opponent (similar to soccer kicks but more versatile and less "scary" looking). Jeff fights under One rules which allow them so it would have been nice to hear his perspective on that. Love these collabs though!
The first MMA competitions I saw here in Germany back then when the sport started to move away from illegal tournaments to something more professional, the fighters were allowed to knee someone to the head. The result was pretty lame though. A lot of cuts and a lot of bleeding. Which led the fights to end pretty early.
7:17 was fucking hilarious. TH-camrs usually try this, but the timing is off and so, but this was just done perfectly :D had a great fucking laugh! Seth talking for ages without looking sus until the very end, Ramsey who's just standing there with a giant WTF expression, and Jeff with just an instant "eh I'll pass" notion - gold, man. Gold.
Icy Mike enjoyed the fish hooking and "abusive language" segments WAY too much, haha. And I loved it! Great stuff, Sensei Seth. Very entertaining and informative as always.
There's a lot of argument that football pads might do the same thing. Decleating a guy is a lot less appealing prospect than just getting a hold of him and pulling him to the ground when you're not in padded plastic body armor.
@@christowers7307 Think about it. You don't actively practice fish hooking people. So in a crazy street fight or self-defense situation where your adrenaline is pumping and your nerves are shot, you're probably not going to be perfectly accurate with your finger placement on something you've never actually trained before. They could also turn into you to get a better angle to bite.
Definitely like glove grabbing, and also the knee and kicking of a grounded appointment, which I think should both be legal and always behind head the punch and elbows which would very useful and important in realife
He does have a video from a few years ago where he imitates him lol Mike has a long history of imitating Ramsey and Ramsey finally did one. I don't remember the title of the video but I do remember seeing it 😂
The Soccer kick on the floor rule also helps avoid the opportunity of kicking someone in the head when they might already knocked out or close to it saving them from potentially major damage
And typically when on the ground and a soccer kick is utilized is when someone is on all 4's preventing the person on the ground from protecting their head. Hands are busy holding themselves up or pushing themselves to their feet, not worrying about blocking your head.
Something Mike hinted at towards the end I think is a part as well, the general audience probably doesn't really want to see, or at least its probably better not to expose a general audience to, some of the less sportsmanlike maneuvers. If you fishhook someone and they tap from it, that's not a satisfying way to end the fight, if they fight the fishhook and end up tearing into the cheek that's probably on the "oh I did not want to see that" side of things. Similar for head stomping / soccer kicks, it goes from a fight to sadistic violence which is a bit unnerving.
I feel like they also underestimate how much more damaging soccer kicks are, laying on the ground means the body is planted, so a lot more of the force goes to the head and neck. It might have the same power as a standing head kick, but with a higher point of gravity(and less friction with ground) spread the force more across your body. Plus, if they’re on the ground, chances are they aren’t able to defend themselves well, and may already by half out
@@DaTimmeh yeah your head can't go anywhere, so it has to absorb more force then a standing head kick. I guess it also takes way less skill and not as risky as a head kick
@@kaspershaupt the kick is absorbed by a MUCH shorter fulcrum whereas if you're both standing the recipient of the kick can roll with it, stumble around, or fall down all of which dissipates the force over more time. It also looks better.
First, Mike's impersonation of Ramsey is awesome. B, I think a downed opponent should be revised to on back or belly. If you are on your hands and knees, or sitting vertically, you are still holding yourself up. You are able to move in a variety of ways. You can use one arm to block. You can defend yourself from these positions. It won't be the most effective defense ever, but you can still protect yourself more than not. Finally, I loved the soccer-kick fake-out. The looks on everyone's faces before the head-swap was terrific.
As Rokus pointed out, you have almost no ability to roll with a strike when you're on the ground. That includes if you're on your hands and knees or sitting. I would allow kicks to the body, but not the head. I don't think it adds anything to the sporting competition, and I do believe it's unnecessarily more risky than kicks to the head of a standing opponent in most cases.
@@JCPRuckus i dunno, I think the ability to save yourself from head kicks when you go down let's a lot of people skate from essentially fight losing positions
@@badwerds - You're missing the point. It's a safety issue. If I punch you in the back of the head and detach your brain stem, then I'd win the fight too. But you're not allowed to hit to the back of the head because it's a sport, not an actual life and death battle... Perspective... Get some.
@@JCPRuckus Seth said that a soccer kick is comparably powerful to a head kick...But let's he honest. It isn't. Stamping down on someone head with all your weight or winding up a full powered kick across someone's head is way worse. A traditional soccer kick is fairly likely to break someone's neck too. There's nowhere for the head to move and thus no cushioning of the blow. All that force is going into the skull, to the floor, and back through the skull.
@@grahamhill676 - I'm not even arguing he's wrong. The standing soccer kick and a standing kick to a standing opponent might hit just about as hard, but the difference is, as you said, in how far you can move your head to absorb the blow. It's the difference between using your brakes to make an emergency stop from 50 mph and using a brick wall. One might toss you around uncomfortably, the other has a pretty good chance to kill you... I'm just assuming he wasn't talking about a running soccer kick.
Y’know Ramsey has such an odd and soft spoken vibe and Mike’s impression of him is fun and all of that makes it easy to forget he’s a VERY LEGIT BAD DUDE until you see him start getting excited in the cage and gleefully demonstrating how he’d eat Seth for dinner if he wanted lol.
The best part of this Self-Defense Olympics is the dynamic between all of you together. I hope there are more get togethers in the future! It seems to be an educational experience for all of you too.
These are good self defense tips too, next time I have to walk through a a rough neighbourhood I'm doing it fully greased up and with my mouth taped shut.
Soccer Kicks do change the game a little bit. They discourage BJJ players from scooting around on their butts the entire fight. If you watch Topuria vs. Hall, there were many times where Topuria could have stomped/ soccer kicked Ryan Hall into oblivion. Sakuraba also soccer kicked Royler Gracie really hard in their fight and it forced Royler to think twice about butt scooting on the ground the whole time.
scooting happened a lot in pride tho, and they allowed soccer kicks, and people used them very often and very well. modern mma has way less butt scooting than early on, in my point of view, rules for passivity and scoring discourage it much more than soccers kicks do, without upping the risk for the athletes.
Seth, love your content by the way! The Vaseline rule reminded me of Turkish Oil Wrestling! Would love to see you try it or something like it and see how you'll need to adapt your techniques and strategies to win in a match!
Ramsey grabbing Seth's gloves was pure domination but specially because what's behind that there's a mighty Ramsey knee that would send you to Mars so fast Elon Musk would pay half his fortune to be next in line.
The collaborative content with all of you has been pretty incredible. Haven’t seen hobby youtubers come together like this before - feels like maybe a new golden age of martial arts youtube! Also: holy crap Ramsey is strong.
I was hoping to see you guys cover a brutal finish in the UFC that forced a move to become illegal: the chin to the eye. Mark Kerr was in the head and arm choke position, put his chin on Dan Bobish's eye and put all his weight on it. Instant tap.
It's not the soccer kicks it's the roundhouse kick. Even amongst pro fighters a roundhouse to the head of a standing opponent is difficult and it loses power as a result. When an opponent has three points of contact so crouching/kneeling, they are perfectly positioned for a kick that can cause lasting damage.
I am crying/laughing watiching this gem of a video. Will definitely always watch this when I am sad and wanted cheering up. Good job Sensei Seth. Keep it up. 🙏👊🏾
I am generally okay with rules that are intended to improve the public perception of a sport, as long as they do not significantly alter the way the game is played. However, I believe that some rules can have the opposite effect, such as the rule against knees to a downed opponent. This rule has led to some fighters intentionally dropping to the ground as a strategy and made many positions that would be unsafe safe.
On one hand, we see why we need these rules in combat sports, especially after Dana White tried to do slap boxing and ignored all the necessary steps. But on the other hand... Gladiator fights would be the biggest thing on television if it still existed...
Seth got "Greased up Jeff Chan" out of the TH-cam video idea hat draw. Nice win there, Seth. Jokes aside, I love all your content, all the collab stuff is just even better. Keep it up as long as you find it fulfilling! 🤙
There's a lot of rules that are directly the result of Tank Abbott in the mid 90's. No fish hooking and no using the fence as a weapon are because of him.
Also lets say someone gets knocked down or out, usually a stumble before the fall adding distance I feel like a run up into a soccer kick sounds devastating
It’s hard to kick in the head someone (even on the ground) that’s trying to defend themselves, unless the person isn’t defending themselves anymore, so to me it makes sense, it’s a way to increase protection for fighters without really changing the dynamic all that much. Knees to the head of grounded opponents on the other hand would be a different story, because you can throw those while grappling from a variety of positions you end up in normally throughout a fight, even while the opponent is actively trying to defend themselves
watching sean o'malley land full body weight punching to a grounded opponent and hearing the casters pause in shock made me realise that its probably a good thing that we don't regularly see that with soccer kicks and curb stomps
I think an interesting way to test the standing head kick vs soccer kick power would be to put the cube on a cobra bag and then put the cube on the ground attached to a heavy bag. In one instance a KO results in the head transferring that force to a pivot point (your feet/ the base of the cobra bag) in the other there is no pivot point so all the force is transferred.
The speedo thing came about when Dennis Hallman wore one during his fight at UFC 133. Dana White was pissed and vowed to make sure it never happened again.
Mike doing a spot on Ramsey Dewey impression right in front of the man is gold.
I can’t believe IcyMike has not shown that perfect impression before!
Mwahahahaha! So it is... so it is!
I thought I missed it somehow until it killed me.
@@Pikepaw he has
@@Pikepaw th-cam.com/video/v3x_TC0bmr8/w-d-xo.html Here you go!
Seth, it must have been a lot of work to bleep out everything Mike was saying in the foul language scene! It was a lot of fun making this video with you guys.
Lots of editing lol
Ramsey your face when seth explained that rule was hillarious :D
This collab as amazing, hope all of you do a mega team up with Sean and Gabriel Varga someday.
I guess, Seth just took a 2-minute bleeb und cut a piece out here and there and hoped, to just get one of the few moments.
I was nearly in tears laughing. You guys have such a great chemistry. It started with the fishing hooks, then the snusiv language and finally Seth using Ramsey as a shield: one giant laugh. And still informative
Seth: see if grabbing my gloves gives you more control over me
Ramsey: i don't need that but ok
Spot on Ramsey impression
Who like the best Street fighting video vote icy mike😂
Adding a rule where throwing your opponent over the fence results in victory would actually make the fence game a lot more interesting.
i think now days it'd just lead to more slams which they want to get away from as well. But i do see the safety issue with trying to throw them out, its like an 6 foot drop to a 3 foot wide grated metal platform which is also about 3 feet off of concrete or gymnasium floor.
That's just sumo with extra steps.
Regardless, it looks like a great full body workout. Seth looked tuckered out heaving Mike out of there.
The height of the cage would have to be adapted for each category, since the fighters in fetherlight are shorter than super heavy
I'd say it's a liability issue. You don't want a fighter going over and hurting a fan by accident.
Icy Mike needs to do a video on the self defense value of always being covered in Vaseline and hurling abuse at your attacker. Hell, there's another class he could offer: phrases to make your attacker feel terrible while you fish hook their mouth apart.

Ramsey over here showing why he was a pro MMA fighter
Ik. He was practically handling seth even without the glove grabbing.
Yeah, incredible grappling fluidity
Every single one of them says that his take defense and strength are incredible.
Mike said "It's not unpleasant. It reminds me of home.". 😂😂😂
Editing to add: "STOCKTON MOTHERF*****!!!"
Mike is just on another level in this one. 😄
Still can't believe Ramsey, Mike, and Seth are in the same room.
Watch the ultimate self defense championship of Rokas (Martial Art Journey) you'll see them all + others
I can't believe Jeff Chan agreed to get covered with vaseline. I gotta wonder how long it took him to get that off of him.
freakin hilarious upload
They were in Australia together for the USDC.

And helmets, they are kind of a wash. They reduce surface trauma but increase likely hood of a concussion or KO.
@@JCPRuckus yeah

It's all back to the fact that "ground fighting" is gay because if you're on the ground the fight is already over.
Tank Abbott is the reason for 90% of the rules.😂
I agree with Mike that throwing someone out of the cage should be a win, but I'm a big fan of Sumo.
Thanks for the shout out brother! The feeling is mutual!
More than colleagues, they all seem like friends, but Mike and Seth seem like brothers. Love it.
I love Jeff's expression at 7:18. It's not anger or shock. It's basically just concern. Like "...why??"
not even 30 seconds in and I am uncomfortable. Outstanding work boys

Happy to hear it. Hope tomorrows better!
Ramsay with some really solid demonstration of fighting dirty with those glove holding.

Mark is the reason by which elbow and head blows became illegal in Pride.
Man I love all you guys, I'ma say it again and again. I could watch these collabs forever.
Aw, you guys spoil us with content!
Loved it.
the only rule i hate is when someone is touching the ground with 1 hand on purpose so they can have terrible posture and not get kneed in the head.
Knees to a grounded opponent and 12-6 elbows are the only rule changes I want in the UFC.
Love seeing you guys putting out this group content since the competition. Keep it up!
I love that everyone jumped on the bandwagon to make collab videos while you were all in Australia.
It's not the soccer kicks it's the roundhouse kick. Even amongst pro fighters a roundhouse to the head of a standing opponent is difficult and it loses power as a result.

Why is this video so short?? I was having too much fun!! 😂
The fish hooking segment was great. Fish hooking the nose to open up neck is also fun.
The grabbing gloves chapter is just ramsey dewey flexing his grip, clinch and chain wrestle skills.
I think soccer kicks are illegal to allow more grappling and ground game rather than just kicking someone lying down.
Also lets say someone gets knocked down or out, usually a stumble before the fall adding distance
I feel like a run up into a soccer kick sounds devastating
It’s hard to kick in the head someone (even on the ground) that’s trying to defend themselves, unless the person isn’t defending themselves anymore, so to me it makes sense, it’s a way to increase protection for fighters without really changing the dynamic all that much. Knees to the head of grounded opponents on the other hand would be a different story, because you can throw those while grappling from a variety of positions you end up in normally throughout a fight, even while the opponent is actively trying to defend themselves

Mike and Seth doing the fish hooks is without a doubt the weirdest thing I have ever seen in martial arts 🫤🫥…

the "do it" at the end caught me off guard. Subscription earned
The transitions in this video are incredible!
Oh hi Coach! Fancy seeing you here!
Little more respect to Poirier not getting tapped from the chandler fishhooks after watching this.

Yall! I don't normally comment on videos, but I'll make an exception this time. Mike is friggin HILARIOUS!
