His striking is just insane. The way he can fake you with a thigh kick that then goes straight to your head so fast you can't even see it on camera. Fearsome warrior
His striking is trash let’s not lie here
@@Trapo-q8w i kinda felt that too
Garbage ass striking 😂
@@Trapo-q8w Who would you say is a good striker then? Genuinely asking
And just if this wasn't badass enough, in Lethwei you're the winner only by KO, if no KO that is a draw.
Don't forget the revival rule, lol.
@@patriciajin6206 Yeah so in some cases not even by K.O xD
Pretty easy to KO them when he's 7 inches tall and weighs 3 stone more
He mostly fought smaller guys, what's badass about that, my little brothers can't beat me either.lol
The lack of talent in Lethwie is the only reason he's successful. High level Thai boxers would destroy him, even under Lethwie rules
Imagine this guy makes friends with Tony Ferguson and they start training together.
"Bro, after we finish our shin conditioning on the concrete pillar I want to teach you how to crack coconuts open using your forehead!"
"FUCK YEAH BRO!!"
I feel ya buddy 🤣
Hahahahhaha and then they eat a bowl of nails... Without milk !!!
Tony Ferguson is one of the best fighters in the world!
Dave Leduc fought never a world class fighter. There's plenty of fighters at his own weight that a willing to fight him, but obviously he don't want that since he know he will get exposed. He fights at open weight and chooses smaller opponents.
@@jmsero7658 Dave would get smoked against a world class muay Thai fighter, no hate.
They're both mediocre fighters. Shin conditioning with concrete and headbutting coconuts means nothing
This is the only dude that can say "My moves are too deadly for mma".
😂😂😂😂
The headbutt in the air before the fight tho lmao
It would be perfect for the early MMA days. Except when he would get taken down and get the same head butt treatment
@@surfingtothestars he's a great fighter with a big heart. but you are right. if you watch his mma fights (that he lost) his ground game isnt very strong. edit: his mma fight are a few years old though
@@surfingtothestars What if he takes five BJJ classes a week for the next few years? I think he has a solid base to transition into the octogon.
And I though Tony Ferguson was crazy...
Mr.nick is that u i am fan diaz brother.i from malaysia
@@xpplay5368 😂😂😂😂😂
Much respect to the bros from Stockton...
Dave Leduc is the type of guy to steal Tony's jokes
Much respect to the Bro's from Stockton...js
Given that there were many elbows, knees and headbutts landing on opponents heads I saw surprisingly few cuts. These guys must be made of steel.
I know right. These guys have tough skin and are just tough overall. Not the best for brain health though I think
@@FijiMuayThai Still better for you (Though nothing good) than gloves...
These guys are conditioned like no others, it's insane how durable they are.
Hard mofos for sure, they have very short careers tho, personally I wouldn't want to have a fighting career in Lethwei/Muay Boran/Bokator Khmer (all three martial arts are very very similar because come from same area), but they are extremelly effective :D
@@ninetyninex19 probably. The more important bit is the hand wraps. Gloves suck, bareknuckle might be the worst for cuts. Wraps seems to be the happy medium
Surgical, I'm loving the deliberation in his attacks, especially when he steps back to let them fall when they're still on their feet. The ref shouting corner at his back
This is the most vicious martial arts competition I’ve ever seen! This is not for the weak of heart! What an absolute beast! 👍
It's exactly the same as muay thai with headbutts. You're acting like they are in a Hell In The Cell.
@@subzero07094 its WAY more brutal than muay thai fym exactly the same
its amaizng to me that you can train this hard, everyday, and still have that normal looking physique.
Training to look dangerous is different to training to be dangerous.
Yup. Some of the most dangerous fighters who ever lived look like average Joes.
Most huge people you see are on steroids lol. It's not normal or useful to be very heavily muscled.
Lifting gives you the looks and these guys dont lift much because thats fatigue that could have been used in other workouts that help you more as a fighter. Ive been doing gym my whole life and got into muay thai 1 year ago, i kinda wish that i could just stop doing gym and use that fatigue to train muay thai instead but i love my appearance too much, dont want to lose it.
@@Andrew-hk8qi lanklet cope
I would never had ended here if it wasn't for Joe Rogan podcast with Dave Leduc. Thanks to you both.
Yesss
This guy is one of the hardest hard knocks about. Really glad I've discovered his work.
No he's a hype job fighting bums
@@thomaskendell8146 is that right keyboard warrior
@@RM-gs6jh keyboard warrior? I'm not the one who's 6 foot 1 fighting guys that are 5 foot 5 he's a bully and you're idolizing him what does that say about you??
@@thomaskendell8146 I wouldn't say idolising just having practiced muay thai and trained in the khmer region, I can say he's a hard knock. It says I'm in a pretty reasonable place to comment.
You in the other hand taking a month to respond to a comment, previously making comments about a recognised fighter . What does that say about you?
Now fuck off.
@@RM-gs6jh lol you think I spend all my time on RUclips 😂😂🤦♂️ no need to get nasty because I don't rate your boy. If you really do Muay Thai why would you like Leduc after the amount of times he's insulted Muay Thai??
04:51 - 05:30 Admiration for the guy taking the hits, some of those would kill many people and he keeps getting up. wow
6:56 the fighter Too too who was in blue fighting dave in red was one of the best in the sport. The Myanmar government took him and killed him unfortunately, very sad I was actually really affected when I read the story about how he was fighting for the peaceful democratic leaders and they found him and most likely its speculated they tortured and killed him. REST IN PEACE TOO TOO I never knew you but watching you inspired me in my own battle of sorts
Rip
Trees start sweating sap when dave steps in the forest
Looool! Banana trees and coconuts the world over are shaking in fear after watching Dave train 😂😄😅
@@FijiMuayThai lol banana trees but definitely not coconut
this guy uses a knee for an uppercut, noice
The sportsmanship of these Thai guys is impeccable. Very honorable people
Fun fact: The combat sport lethwei comes from the neighboring conurry of Thailand called Burma (Myanmar) but yes Thai fighter are very honorable and humble can’t agree more
@@tonytonywhopper819their fanboys aren't lmao
It's from Burma
I just discovered this martial art through Kengan Ashura, anime also makes us discover things we never heard of.
Jonas :D that’s cool. I discovered LoFi and Nujabes thru anime
Like hentai
Yessirrr me too fam shits fire bro i wonder when part 3 is gonna come out
same man! saw paing's a favourite, so i had to look into lethwei some more lol
Same here man. Lethwei is the real deal. Saw Paing 🔥
This is a ruthless sport. You can definitely see the similarities with Muay Thai here, love it. I wish it had more exposure overseas, keep doing ya thing Leduc!
Lethwei is pretty awesome and brutal. Leduc for sure has helped raise the profile of the sport globally
All those dudes are tough as nails.
Totally agree
they are pretty light tho, if they were heavier those hits wouldn't be taken so well
Have u fought one ?
Holy shit bruh, this is next level
Thanks for the comment. Dave Leduc makes great highlights in his fights
0:58 when she says she only dates guys who play minecraft
Slayyyyerrrrrr.
No one has ever said that in the history of mankind
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@arjyamanbasu4037 what are you talking about bro a sicc minecraft world gets all the bitches wet
Can’t stop laughing he’s head butting coconuts to death
And banana trees 😂
@@FijiMuayThai fake head butt
Leduc isnt the king of lethwei, hes the king of violence
Id like to see him and tony ferguson go at it.
@@kidddogbites lol any decent level UFC fighter would Kill him
@@bobbob-xn2sq im not saying he would win. I more just wanna see how tony does in lethwei
@@bobbob-xn2sq depends on the rules - he probably has a good shot if they use lethwei or muay thai rules. Maybe not so good if they use mma rules, I don't think lethwei has much ground game.
King of violence? What do you think combat sports are about. If you want non-violence fight, go watch karate touching match where they touch to score, not hit.
He should be included in the next Street Fighter game
As Sagat's and Adon's love child?
Now that would be cool to see. With his signature move the headbutt
Yeah. As the boss.
... And a new challenger appears!
1:08 me when i start my minecraft survival and see the first tree
ledgey Plays lol
@@FijiMuayThai hahah
hahahahaha wow this actually made me laugh this is the top comment
@@attroenergizer8115 me too 😁
@@attroenergizer8115 ahahah thanks dude
Intimidating energy. This guy is the treasure chest monster from dark souls
😂 I hated getting one shotted by those guys.
funny how he likes to call himself king with only 5 wins against people half his size in open weight.
Gold. Inc he’s tall and has a fixed weight, the smaller guys have to give up their optimal fighting weight to meet his, in order to fight. That’s the basis of the whole Traditional Lethwei and that’s why it’s flawed, and unfair for smaller guys.
@Gold. Inc ....you didn't get my point
@Gold. Inc man piss off, like i care about respecting an egotistical twat.
street fight is irrelevant to the point that dave has it too convenient, not his opponents who are half his size.
Traditional Lethwei is flawed to its core. it must be reformed if it wants global recognition.
David is like the battle beast of the combat sports world
How am I just now learning of this guy??? Insane!!!!!
4:51 Dat headshot though
Hes a scary dude no doubt....really deceptive mover.
For sure.
Man I dunno, he may not be that jacked, but when I look at that face and hands, I know I'm not gonna fuck around with this guy that's for sure. Has the look of a straight up killer.
His skills are off the charts....As a fighter and Muay Thai , Kali stick and k*fe fighting "practioner" and fellow Canadian (Toronto),
I've looked up to him for years. Dude literally said fu*k it, started destroying all comers in a sport he was new to. In a county he wasnt from. In my mind, one of the true legends in combat sports. If I ever get the chance to meet him, it'll be a strong handshake,
then I bow on my knees to the true master. That said, sparring with him is the thing of nightmares.
From all veterans of combat sports in Canada?
Sir, we salute you. Legend and an inspiration to us all...
Humbly,
Steve Chalmers
love the sportsmanship and respect the combatants have for each other
To go to a completely foreign country, take on, and beat their champions... GIANT BALLS OF STEEL! Well done Dave. 💪🏻
Nah. Cause he beats up little Burmese guys half his size. Dave Leduc won't challenge someone his size (weight) because he knows he'll get his ass whooped.
@@braveheart4922 Most of Dave's fights are against heavier oppoennets. His last two fights were against American opponents with 20-25lbs heavier than him, won by KO both of them. However the best fighters and most difficult fights in Lethwei are shorter because they have the advance for headbutts.
Look how sloppy this shit is😂
@@Trapo-q8w ah another "technique > fighting" guy
just remember your techniques when you get cracked in the skull mate, im sure thatll help
This guy is a human knife
Nem semmi! Szikár és kemény. Használja a fejét!
Damn at 7:45 they give him a medal, belt and huge ass trophy.
Beat on this video is on fire. great edit. thank you.
Don't matter who lost these bruhs are on a different level.🙏🏽🤙🏾
If they got proffesional training they would be knocking eachother out left and right. I think the reason they don't get correct training is because of that exact reason.
He just fights with so much swagger, I LOVE IT
I like they way they practice their headbutts as part of the warming up routine.
Yo, the fighter in red at 4:51 got rocked and sat down AT LEAST 6 Times! Lots of people saying Leduc is a savage, nah, that ref is.
In lethwei you can get knocked out clean and have 10 minuters to recover and get back in the fight.
This guy is a throwback savage fighter! Respect.
Leduc is much more than a savage fighter... The respect he has earned, and how he has been embraced by the people of burma is touching
Gangster wow thats sweet how have I never heard of this guy or this style this would be a good style to learn for street fighting self defense
Lethwei is brutal and came from the battlefield. Muay boran and Khun khmer also used headbutts and all 9 limbs in the battlefiled but took them out for ring sport.
Didnt know abt lethwei but its awesome,real fighting.watched almost every fight with Dave and just love that guy,he seems like a great person when listen to him..respect Dave,good luck and health in life..cheers from Sweden
Dave Leduc vs Por Pramuk would be awesome to see
Both of them are beasts in their own art
That would be an awesome fight.
I was about to comment the same thing. The fight will be legendary.
Great Content. Leduc is a legend.
Thanks!
Leduc is a king of old men and midgets.
It's a different with different set of rules and techniques. He uses his size and reach, keeps you guessing if the front kick is going to the body or right in your face. He became famous in Myanmar for a reason.
This is a "new" vid of old footage. While I am a fan of Dave Leduc...I wish the footage was also new.
The level of competition isn't there yet. He's leagues above his opponents in skill and experience
Hes my favorite fighter would love to be trained by him
I think he does Lethwei seminars in different countries when he's not fighting
@Nobby Barnes the only way to train and work out like I do cause I love is to have a job shit ain't cheap so having a job and doing marital arts and working out and taking care of my self ain't grown lol I think u need to grow up ppl like u make me laugh and feel sorry for u go bother someone else who gives a fuck
Lethwei is savage, I like it for its traditional South East Asian boxing authenticity. Muay Thai is great but you can see a vast difference between Lethwei and Muay Thai. Muay Thai was reformed with an emphasis on elbows, kicks with little regard to punching in its modern sport focus.
I was here because of yoroizuka saw paing. I love lethwei now
Cool 😎
We need this in the U.S.
How on earth is the shorter fighter supposed to headbut a taller guy.. Just like in clinching the advantage goes to the taller fight.. Not very fast hands and feet.. Fighters should be of same height and weight if headbutts included..
Actually the short have advantage in headbutt. Because in clinch tall one have alittle chance to head butt to short one soft part of the head (face)
Back in 90s, I saw a match where a shorter guy flew like superman and head-butted right into the chest of his opponent and knocked him out of the ring. We call it "BALAR GAUNG" and it is deadly when it comes from a shorter person.
@@kaungzawhtet5328 Sounds like a wrestler.
@@boshirahmed But as far as I see, Lethwei fighters are pretty weak at wrestling. I saw most of them train their bodies to increase tolerance to knuckles and knees.And they are very proud of how they take beating and still standing in the rings. Obviously, Dave beats the hell out of standings.
I just discover the leithwei martial art
I’m really impressed
Big respect from France
yes you are the king of the letweit
Dude in the red shorts at the 3-4 minute mark took a BEATING and still kept rolling!
The punishment Lethwei warriors are able to take is nauseating. This guy will be too tough for the UFC.
Not really. Comparing lethwei rules to ufc is apples and oranges
He got slapped around in mma. He only fights in lethwei because he isn't talented enough to fight in bigger and more competitive sports
@@nxvh9062your father only molested you because he doesnt love you
Ohh damn! Was that Dave Leduc working out with Trainer Gao?
Two legends in the same video.
Never heard of lethwei until I watched Joe Rogan's podcast
Lethwei has been around a long time. But Leduc has really helped to gain publicity for Lethwei across.the globe recently
Where can I watch live Lethwei events?
5:00 wow! Hail to the 👑 in there looking like Tong Po’s big brother
Wow, is Dave Leduc the hardest man on the planet, what a commitment
This kids is what real fighting looks like. No crane kick or wax on/wax off here McDojo lovers.
Hmm I saw crane
You don't know what your talking about and it shows
Please do enlighten me, what does real fighting look like and what works in street scenarios? Mma, thai/lethwei, boxing, wrestling, bjj are all amazing effective arts that translate well to the street and develop fighting instinct. Now let’s compare that to wing chun, taekwondo, aikido, hapkido and other McDojo arts which try to imbue you with predetermined responses to every attack. I have tried both types of arts and quickly learnt which is effective.
@@niceguy6152 yeah so why so salty its a fucking highlight video you brought up mcdojos like a fresh divorcée brings up his wife at the bar
You really aint got a clue. If you did you would know that most stances arent entirely stationary so dont look like in the movies, fool.
Where can I see these types of events live?
Too bad I wouldn't be in his weight class would love to fight him (I have no background on martial arts)
hahaha lol
You'd still probably beat him tbh
Yooooo that punch he took at 7:13 is insane, you can see the sweat flying off of his head into the crowd… and he just kept going. Dude is an animal. Shit reminds me that we’re animals too, fighting for dominance and sport. Happens all the time in nature!
His stance and moves and destructive power really do feel like Sagat.
Really wide stance, let's him generate a ton of force. Its pretty unconventional, but as you can see he close distance really fast and uses knees as uppercuts. He is a really talented dude, he has won grappling contests too. I think a shot at MMA would be interesting. He is really tall 170lb, with that striking he would really be really entertaining to watch for sure.
And he is definitely Sagat 🤣
@@weaselshitz2010 he isn't 170 he's 200
@@thomaskendell8146 he fights at 75kg or 165 - check his record.
It's nice to see that every sport has a GSP
Very true :)
@@FijiMuayThai tenk you for the like
@@brucewayneontheweekends no worries buddy, thank you for the comment on the vid 😎
How in the hell do these guys do multiple fights? The guy in the red shorts starting at 4:50 basically got knocked out 6 times in 1 fight. Wtf, surely after one of those you'd be thinking "that's enough brain damage for me thanks" and call it quits
Lethwei is brutal for sure
I was looking for this comment so bad 💀💀.
They take the risk of being potentially retarded at age 50
If only I joined my gym earlier so I could have met Dave with my Cousin, my Cousin met and has a video with him over at our Gym that does Muay Thai, Dutch Kickboxing. I’m sad 😔 Dave came at the gym here in colorado about 3 months ago for a Seminar teaching his combos
Left hook at 5:11 with looks like something out of a movie.
Tomaz Rodrigues Seriously
How many times have y'all seen a headbutt worked into combat sports sparring?
Everybody's gangsta til ya hit em with the Van Damme...
seems like he always fighting small people
Range advantage?
I dont think so
He is a close fighter
Dear sir, that's not true. Dave is 6'2 Yilmaz 6'0, Jallon 6'3, Bacynski 6'3, Washinton 5'11, Nilmungkorn SudsakornGym 5'11 ect..
As fo the Burmese fighter he faced they were smaller, but we have to understand that headbutts (without talking if the fight grew up using them) they are way easier on a taller fighter because your forehead goes directly on the jaw. As for taller fighter, they have to drop their level in order to reach the jaw of a smaller opponent. Also Dave fights like a short man, as he always goes inside where his reach is nullified. Dave often said that the strongest opponents he faced where the Burmese, who were smaller, and tougher, instead of the taller foreigners.
Burmese are short folk
@@LeducLethwei damn the official team is here
I just discovered Lethwei and it's the bomb
It's respectable, that's for sure. The fights are crazy though, they have very little technique and spend most of the fight swinging as hard as they can
throw adesanya against leduc if he thinks he so good. izzy would destroy him. he's king of nothing.
Adesanya will eat this dude for breakfast. Leduc is a clown who fights smaller opponents and ducks fighter his size (78-84kg). Leduc is scared of fighting someone his size.
@@jmsero7658 fk yall talkin bout that’s a different sport
whats the music?
Un énorme combattant au mm niveau que Andy hug des légendes
This is a great compilation of a brilliant fighter. Not just in his skills on the mat, but energy, dedication, and promotion of this style.
Shout out to anyone seeking this after David's appearance on JRE.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Lethwei and Leduc are both awesome
He's just taller
Yes being tall really helps. Most of the guys he fights are quite a bit shorter
@@FijiMuayThai Actually in Lethwei the shorter man is favorised for headbutts. Its harder for the taller men to land headbutts as have to drop their level whereas shorter man have their forehead already aligned on the jaw of their opponents. Also given the facts that Dave mostly fight in the clinch, he completely gives away his reach advantage and fights like a short man. Dave's hardest fight were against the shorter Burmese. If being tall was the only thing needed to become champion, then all champions would be the tallest, but it's not the case, you have to be skilled. Check ou this fight of 6"3 Bristish Muaythai Champ Nicolas Carted , against Tun Tun Min, 5"9 : ruclips.net/video/_Orp9Oh1-cc/видео.html
Dave was made for Lethwei and has an incredible pain threshold.
@@LeducLethwei you are right for headbutts the shorter man is in a better position to land on the opponents jaw straight upward. Thanks for sharing the Tun Tun Min fight, those headbutts were every effective against his taller opponent!
Dave Leduc is a master of the human body... beautiful human being
He’s not the fastest but his combinations are very fluid, also great cardio.
Lethwei fighters can't punch. Any decent Muay Thai fighter would murder him he telegraphs everything he throws and leaves his chin out
Perfect music to go with this brutal striking
that guy on the red trunks has one good jaw
too good for his own good.

A few years in a bjj dojo and this dude would be a world beater. UFC would be over. That chin is IRON
5:49 is the most impressive counter I've seen
Gsp did the exact same counter in ufc. Can't remember against who tho.
Always wanted to get into Lethwai tbh the violence the conditioning and the style just love it.
Yeah anyone who's good at it is a force to be reckoned with.
Couldn't hack it in muay thai, couldn't hack it in MMA, moves to Lethwei where the competition is lacking and becomes champion in 11 fights, goes on Joe Rogan, suddenly everyone thinks he's hot shit. I don't get it, his striking technique is garbage and every compilation I see of him, he's fighting absolute fools. It's like when Andy Kaufman became the women's wrestling champion of the world except everyone takes this dude seriously.
Nice to see Sagat from Street Fighter 2 still going…
Big fish, small pond
Which is more effective for MMA?
Lethwei or Kickboxing?
Canada represent!
Canada has produced some great fighters for sure
What I the tradition with those flags after the fight??? Love this culture fell in to the rabbit hole with this wanna know every bit of info I can. Fell in to the kali rabbit hole a few years back.
