@Anothermachine we are still pretty new so all that is being worked on. We even put up scoring and illegal strike videos on youtube and social media. Mainly everything is still on social and will be transferred to more places soon.
@petrpumpkineater if it is that's a dumb rule, hema fights use thrusts all the time and if anything they're wearing less armor than these guys, the points just need to be dulled, capped, or taken off so it's safe, no head thrusts would be a good rule
I saw some negative comments and I just don’t get that. This whole sport is amazing! I hope it gets more and more popular. Please keep having these fights they are so much fun to watch.
@kazuto8726 thank you, it happens. Lots of people have never done combat sports so they have their own opinions. Or they haven't done steal combat and don't understand the risks.

@@armoredmmait’s really good as it is honestly I don’t mind just sounds of battle, you can always play your own music in the background! WHOLESOME! Don’t change anything
This is dumb jujitsu would obviously be so incredibly effective as the weight would make anyone on the bottom and lack of grip even more vulnerable to people getting top control that armor doesn’t defend from takedowns or from big joint locks. For anyone who doesn’t know this is a very old sport in the scheme of things and has been going on in Europe for two decades. And the European stuff is wayyy more violent.
Absolutely baffled by the first decision axe guy destroyed spear guy. It would be much better to have highly padded weapons with a tough wood or composite base where you can do legitimate damage to people and see peoples injuries and the impact of attacks then to have people so armored they can use real weapons but no d,age gets done. I ran an amateur sword fighting team in Arizona in 2001 and we had helmets gloves just for eye and small joint protection but everything else was so painful that our abilities to parry and block became highly effective and exciting I once had a fifteen minute match sword versus sword where neither us landed a hit it was like movie level choreography because when you genuinely are not willing to be hit you learn how to keep from getting hit. This a,pint of armor causes people to willingly take hits because they know it won’t really hurt. Which is absolutely unrealistic because in this situation an actual knight would be using a mace, war hammer, half swording or more likely than anything a randol dagger which was designed to go under armor plates and cut an opponents vital areas. Though using a warhammer which would crush the helmet was also a popular choice. Knights didn’t just beat on eachother that would get both parties killed because they would be stabbed in the back or, set on fire or something awful by other soldiers surrounding them in battle an armored fighter would not just engage with armor. He would get the job done fast with a specialized tool.
Also you wouldn’t be using a sword a shield independent of eachother you put the sword out front and then throw strikes from behind it. It’s just painful to watch untrained people who spent no money in training and hundred thousand dollars in armor. It’s just a mess.
@@Shaneofthefuturevery suboptimal, actually, since the rules for HEMA usually explicitly include “no stabbing or thrusting“, so the spearman’s better off with a slashing polearm like a poleaxe or a bardiche, or maybe even a quarterstaff (is that even allowed? )
I didn't know how much i needed this in my life. I have so many questions. Do they get to choose their own weapons? Are there different weapon divisions? Size restrictions on shields?
it seems like there's one kind of match featuring two handed weapons and all others feature a one handed sword and shield with the choice of either a bulky mid sized rectangular shield or a small circular buckler, more choice and more kinds of matches would definitely be interesting, id really like to see something featuring a light greatsword, i think bludgeons are always gonna be illegal though because of the danger they put the opponent in, you cant really dull the edge of a mace
@randallross420 Typically fighters agree to a matched weapon pairing. In exhibition matches, we do allow mixed weapon pairing, but typically at the pro-fight level it will be same type pairing. Different pairing matches you could see include; Mace/Hatchet & Buckler, Sword/Falchion & Shield, Long Axe, and the less common Longsword and Grand Sword/Falchion. Sword/Falchion & Shield matches, fighters can chose to use something as small as a buckler. There are shield size restrictions in the sense that there is a limit to how far forward a shield can be mounted from your fist, and how small a shield can be. Fighters at this level typically do not use big shield like heaters because of how easy it is to end up locked up in not so great positions. Since we grapple and work around strikes and take downs, the punch shield styles you see are more optimized for the type of fighting we do. @greazypozer Mace fights are a thing, And I've personally have fought in an exhibition match were we started with longsword and ended with grand falchions. Got a wicked crease on my helmet from that fight. There is spec requirements for the weapons to make them safe(ish). They still can hurt like a son-of-a-bitch. Here is a video showing what our weapons could do to someone unarmored ruclips.net/video/76gSD8qaaOw/видео.html
Brought me back 45 years to my back yard, some long strips of steel with one end wrapped in ace bandage as a makeshift hilt, a couple pieces of plywood fashioned into some shields.... and well, no armor at all. We did limit the spikes on the shield, so they only stuck out 1/4-1/2 inch cause we didn't wanna get hurt. Good to see the old pass time has gotten more organized. 🤘🧙♂🤘
First time I've seen this, Wow, never even knew it existed. 😳 Really enjoyed the first fight, spear vs axe. This is gonna become a thing..can see this on TV.
@@InitiallyJayKay bruh Requiring the pointy end of weapons to be blunt(er) would be a better alternative imo. Whether by dulling the edge or modifying the weapon itself Then again idk much about these armed sports so maybe they are right
Would be really cool if fighters started wearing their own personal coat of arms on their tunics (or whatever the cloth is called). This would really help fans identify fighters. I don't know easy that would be to implement on certain armor types, though.
dope!! i mean these guys clearly know what they are doing... but that squishy ref makes me nervous, if ya get a wild contender that doesnt listen to the ref. also maybe chain link dome over the top, ya know, case something splinters and flies out. edit: jesus lock the door!! lol still so dope
That was entertaining! That last match both guys knew something about fighting. That last head kick n armor was something! The Axe fights whoah that’s intense. This was so much fun to watch! Hope we get to see much more. ( Would love to see the rules )
It's actually pretty cool I was part of a medieval Society down in Florida we used to do the same type of thing we would fight each other in bash each other until somebody fell down and then that person still standing was declared the winner it was a lot of fun we would do it at like Renaissance festivals and such what's part of like this group called The Adrian Empire the Bentwood Raiders was another group but yeah a lot of fun and I'm getting kind of old now but I wouldn't mind getting back into it😅
Very cool concept, but are there ever any knock-outs? Every fight (to my untrained eye) looks the same. In normal MMA you can see damage being done, you got all the grappling, etc. And I can't see who's more skilled than another. It just looks like wailing. But I am in no way throwing shade, if anything this has got to be one of the most grueling forms of fighting stamina wise. Would like to learn more about it, so that I can see the details, and learn what is good technique and such.
Yes, there are knockouts, there is, in Russia, HMB exhibition fights have been held for a long time in local MMA organizations. ruclips.net/video/VlCQ2pBob5Q/видео.html
Also needs an official or ceremonial weigh in, some banter between the opponents before the fights. Nothing creates views like fighters with a beef, either real or for entertainment.
During the PPV stream, that info is present and you can see it in the previous full fight night video. There was an unfortunate incident that corrupted that footage and audio that had commentary, so the videos we have from the more recent are from the raw video files from 3 different cameras. Took over 30 hours of editing to get these out and watchable.
This was a pretty fun watch. Excited to see where the sport goes. Particularly with the MMA side of things, seeing as both individual sports exist, bridging the gap between armed arts and unarmed arts would be quite interesting; though i am curious why they werent using sweeps and basic clinch throws like in Muay Thai, since punches are allowed Seems like it would be useful and fit right in both practically and thematically. Kicks would also be interesting to see Personally I'd add a small, harmless dagger to each fighter's arsenal and have them use it in vital exposed areas if they can (which would ofc be fatal in a real battle), and have it count like a knockout in traditional mma. I.e. the "dead" fighter loses
I'm a 60 year old grandmother and this came up in my news feed and I'm so glad it did

Idk how they did it back then bc they spend most of their time battling the weight of the armor lol great content btw
i think this armor is way more padded or weighty than traditional medieval armor, in regular armor you can run and move very quickly
is this available on pay per view?
Even though they have weapons this is somehow more safe than MMA.
