Спорт
One point I’d like to add about his foot sweeps from the clinch, while it is certainly possible and in fact likely that he developed and “pressure tested” those techniques in Sumo Wrestling, these are also found in karate itself. In particular, the kata called Tekki Shodan or Naihanchi Shodan, depending on style, is very heavily based on clinch fighting using sweeps, leg kicks, elbows, knees, hook punches, arm locks, etc. That kata is currently my personal favorite and when you see the applications demonstrated by someone who knows what they’re doing, it makes a lot of sense.
Everybody wants to make fun of karate. But nobody wants to fight that old school karate dude.
I know, it seems like there's always a great representative of Karate in top promotions: Stephen Thompson, GSP, Machida, Whittaker, Kikuno, Gunnar Nelson, Northcutt, Ramon Daniels and they still use the techniques too, not to mention it's a great base for timing, footwork and work ethic.
And there also very humble very traditional
@@carritohmc I feel those guys blitz better than anyone else as well... It's terrifying.
@@MichaelBrown-rg8oi Blitzing is the essence of Shotokan karate and olympic sport karate. Kyokushin on the other hand is about toughness and enduring pain.
@@johncena12366 And that's awesome that they have a different focus besides who can be the best in combat... Despite all the "Alpha Chads" saying differently.
These are often used in point sparring, so amazing to see them put to use in cage fighting
My favorite fighter of all time
wate nallace mine too
Not a bad choice !
He a Great Martial Artist & a Great Human being. He hugs the other fighter after the match whether he loses or wins. He has class & Sportsmanship too!
I didn't know about Lyoto's Karate background. Thank you for this.
No problems Jonnathan! Glad you enjoyed it!
Your video makes me think of Hayward Nishioka, the legendary judoka that was also a karate champion, with foot sweeps a large part of his arsenal. In one of his instructionals, he has a special section dedicated to karate footsweeps.
another guy who is really good at integrating throws into karate is Rafael Aghayev.
Thank you, I will check him out!
Yeah, he's great. I suspect he's got a judo background as well.
Sure! Inspite of the fact that Aghayev to practice Olimpic Karate he is an excellent fighter. He participated of the Karate Combat and won it. Very bloody fight. I was fan of him and after that I was even more.
@@francisbraga8486 I was absolutely stunned at how competent Aghaev was. Absolutely no vices from point karate, and all of the technique and timing. Excellent fighter.
Stephen Thompson.
i Done karate my whole life and it has worked very well for me.
Nice one Jason! Thanks for the comment!
hey bro, are submissions allowed in Karate?
@@zefsagala1391 in a few styles such as Goju Ryu
@@zefsagala1391 Yes sir
Can you defend double leg takedown?
I think you have to a attribute a lot of Machida's takedown game to his background as an amateur sumo champion. Which you do, to be fair. But I think it is understated a bit by many. Apparently Inoki was quite an influence on his wrestling game, as he said that was why he mostly outwrestled his opponent in his first MMA fight. He said that he then realized that he wanted to represent his karate background when he fought and began to employ that more so. Awesome, educational video. Great job.
Awesome, your breakdowns are definitely some of the best out there, can't wait for the next one!
Fahrenheit thank you so much. A lot of work goes into them and I'm looking to keep getting better and experimenting with a few different ideas.
Excellent. Thank you for posting.
nice video, karate punches combined with karate footwork are extremely effective
Thanks mate I am glad you enjoyed the video!
Solid man! Keep up with this content and you are rollin👍🏽 id say most of us viewers enjoy learning about the variety of techniques used in mma especially with examples such a big name fighters like Machida and your video highlights and analysis are on point.
Thank you my friend! Its always nice to hear from people who enjoy the videos. I like making them as it helps with my own training and coaching, but knowing others are benefiting from them also really cheers me up!
Like everything else, there are pros and cons. I did Karate when I was already a black belt in both Hapkido and Taekwondo and made it up to brown belt. I still choose not to use the 50/50 stances they taught me because in sparring days, I usually toyed with their black belts because the 50/50 made it easier to sweep than having weight on rear leg. 50/50 made it very easy for me to sweep them because half of their weight was already on lead leg so all I had to do was kick ankle with 80% or more of my weight and they are trained to back up with both legs which was never fast enough for them to avoid the sweeps.
The pros probably outweighed the con though because of all the Martial Arts, I have taken; Karate seemed to go the most in depth about the elements of actual hand to hand fighting. Others like Taekwondo focused more on techniques whereas on Karate, we focused a lot more on timing, efficiency of movements etc. pretty cool stuff actually.
It seems to me that putting 80% of your weight on either leg makes one vulnerable to wrestling take-downs, hence why a neutral stance is emphasized in classic judo. Perhaps karate had that in mind when emphasizing a neutral stance as well.
TheSilence1 80% or more on the kicking leg. As in, put body weight behind your kick.
Funny, you should mention wrestling, Machida has the hardest time against wrestlers.
They both have their time and place. I wouldn’t use it against a Muay Thai expert but may use it against a boxer since they wouldn’t be kicking my legs.
TheSilence1 Karate is actually the mma of its time. There are actual grappling techniques in the katas if you know where to look
Absolutely right. And two of the of my favorite at teaching and explaining bunkai (kata applications) are Ian Abernathy ruclips.net/user/practicalkatabunkai and Jesse Enkamp ruclips.net/user/KARATEbyJesse
Karate is an awesome martial art. I'd put in on par with Ju Jitsu (not BJJ) because even though Ju Jitsu incorporates grappling and groundwork, it doesn't have the sparring of karate. My favourites are judo and kickboxing
excellent analysis
Thanks for the support! I hope you subscribe for more!
Throughout my school life I was bullied. They mocked me because of my dark skin. And they use to beat me up. No one helped me. I made friends with some of my classmates thinking that they will help me. But when the bullies came they left me and joined the bullies to beat me up with them.
Then I started learning karate. And I worked day and night to train myself. And then all my bullies avoided any conflict with me.
Now I'm a black belt in karate and I know how it feels to be weak. But the truth is we are not weak its just a state to mind. So I thought of teaching everyone martial arts and rise above bullies. And started a RUclips channel last week. Always remember YOU ARE NOT WEAK. YOU ARE MORE THAN WHAT YOU THINK YOURSELF TO BE. NEVER EVER GIVE UP.
Glad you overcame!
@@SonnyBrown thank you 😀
Would love to see a full breakdown of this guy, really different fighter. Great video
What an excellent video! Good job sir
OSS!
Thank you very much, appreciate the support!
I appreciate him after years!! Usss👊
Phenomenal artists

Ethereal Entity Thanks for the support!
和訳はメチャクチャだけど貴重な映像が沢山あって素晴らしいですね。
So good!
Great post!
Thank you!
O melhor e mais técnico até agora no mma
The scoop sweep is also taught in HEMA... this is quite interesting
Lyoto one of my all time favorites, because of all those sweeps. Great video thanks!
Glad I could cover one of your favourites! Cheers mate!
awesome channel!!!!
Scoop throw is awesome !!
Top notch channel bro
Good video !
Tripping Dan Henderson is pretty well done, given that Dan is an Olympic gold medallist in wrestling himself.
He never was even close to an olympic gold medal.Wrestling in mma is very different to pure wrestling,for eg gsp was a great mma wrestler but wouldnt have a hope of even making the canadian wrestling team.
This video was purely excellent, and I'm subscribed with an Osssu sir ; )
Very good judo technque
Beautiful techniques
For sure !
Another great video thanks! I'd love to see a study on the best fence takedowns in mma or takedowns in open stance match ups (orthodox v southpaw)
I do plan on looking at Randy Coutures cage takedowns in the future !
I just did my first video on Randy Couture's fence takedowns. Thanks for the Idea. Here you go: ruclips.net/video/asJ9RVL0GCg/видео.html
It's funny, I have my 1st Dan Black Belt in traditional Okinawan Shōrin-ryū Shōrinkan karate which I started in 6th grade and did weekly until I was 18, and I knew it was technically from my karate background originally, but I always thought that the step in outside trip Lyoto does around 0:29 was just the simplest/easiest way to trip someone, but I guess I don't really see it that often.
Its a classic one and fun to hit also.🙏
That scoop throw is BA! He walks right through them. My krav instructor is a Kemp black belt but he's never shown that. I've got to bring that up! Leg sweeps, hip throws, now I gotta learn this.
Savate have a kicking version of this tech which may interest you
The Dragon, truly one of my favourites of all time.
He’s pure class!
Oh wait, karate doesn’t work does it?
Hahahahaha
Thanks for your fantastic posts Mr Brown, love ‘em.
Cheers
Thanks for the comment mr Swinging southpaw! Appreciate it!
karate works as does boxing and muay thai
I love Machida. He is my favorite fighter ever, hands down.
Phenomenal warrior!
🙏🙏🙏
so nice
권혁일 thanks for the support!
But wait I thought Karate didn't work!? 😉
Exactly lol
GOJU does !
shotokan and kyokushin karate work in mma and in the streets
Karate is punches, kicks, guards, sweeps, and throws.
Of course it works.
Most martial arts work.
(except aikido)
Karate has always worked,
iam gonna start training shotokam karate like because of lyoto he make me want to train it
Awesome timimg literally just got his book last week
Excellent! I have that one and its a very decent book.
ocean lindgren bro excuse me my question how did you get his book thanks
Everardo Andrade i never saw this sorry! Just ordered a used copy off of Amazon
ocean lindgren ok dude thanks
7Dec20 2141 Elegant and instructive video with incisive commentary. Thank you very much from New Zealand.
Glad you enjoyed it ! 😊
Sonny, man., can you cover more throwing\wrestling techniques from striker disciplines? Like thai boxing, wu-shoo, hapkido?
Hey mate, Yes I do plan on doing so as its something that is currently interesting me in my own training. One thing I had in mind that I would do relatively soon would be San Shou throws and look at what Cung Le has done.
You are my favourite fighter...❤
🙏🙏🙏
Very cool
You are cool too! Thank you very much, appreciate the support!
I'm very glad to have your acquaintanceship, and such a gentleman and a scholar in my corner over many years.
I'm just rewatching this video again, and this is exactly what I need for my C-class amateur Muay Thai fight with limited sweeps. As a fakey southpaw; I'm going to come in pretending to be orthodox up to the bout, rushing in to center of the ring as Orthodox, and will often shift into southpaw à la d'Amato.
Thanks as always brother!
Muito bom oss
🙏
Would love to know what's that japanese style song in the background by the end of the video!
That should be in the description. It was a song by God of Shamisen!
Karatê machida Forevore OSS! !!
Did you make videos on T city Brian Ortega & Snap Down Tony Ferg?
Nope I didn't, but maybe one day 🙏
Can you do one with wanderlei silva
Unbelievable how he's so good at kuzichi waza...
Pulled it off pretty smoothly!
practice the basis of any martial art
Legend.All those styles including sumo catch wrestling karate boxing.hall of famer as far as I'm concerned.Legend.

The first takedown is also oftenly used in capoeira,it s called vingativa.
🙏🙏🙏
Does anyone know the opponent at 3:16? Looks like Kevin Randleman, but it's not.
There are other more traditional throws that he's used while IN clinch. His fight against Wanderlei Silva is a good example.
Don't neglect your kata kids!
He's never fought Wanderlei Silva: he trains with Anderson Silva and from time to time visits Wanderlei Silva. Wanderlei Silva trains with Shogun Rua (Machida's rival).
The best to do it at MMA level
I would like to listen to more of this music. Can someone help ?
Look up God of Shamisan
I used that scoop throw all the time in sparring. You get your thigh behind their’s......no can defend. OSS!!!!
Machida has deep knowledge of Sumo as well.
Yes. Thats why I mention it at 2:48
My favorite fighter in UFC I name lyoto to my youngest son
Thats all time!
The first one is also in muay thai
are submissions allowed in MMA?
They sure are.
Lyoto is the greatest classical martial artist who ever existed.
🙏
No Brasil isso é mais conhecido como Rodo kkk
Oss
🙏
Okinawa karate and kyokishin are the real deal the most violent they fight to kill
🙏🙏🙏
Machida’s father’s very close friend was Inoki and Inoki’s brother.
Yeah I did find some footage of Inoki slapping Machida !
Sonny Brown- what’s more amazing is that the true Brazilian Jiu Jitsu GOAT was a man named Ivan Gomes. He was undefeated in Vale Tudo. He dominated Carlson Gracie under Gracie rules. Gomes challenged Inoki in the mid 70s. But Inoki wasn’t interested in putting his reputation on the line with an unknown. They became close friends and training partners. Some of those sumo/ catch techniques were taken back to Brazil by Gomes which influenced his Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
The Dragon.
Legendary !
Top three standups non lethal 1 my thai 2 kyokishin 3 kick boxing or boxing with leg defense
Top three deadly martial arts
1kravmaga 2 systema 3 and silat
🙏🙏🙏
Bruce is the first Dragon
Don is the second Dragon
Lyoto is the Third Dragon
Legends!
@@SonnyBrown i was wondering if Don Wilson. The kickboxing champion would have met Lyoto Machida for the first time and it would be great if they ever do a seminar or an interview.
A lot of it is Sumo
He did a bit!
lol during the ufc fight i think he stop for a millisecond cuz of his karate back ground
you know sweep hit and game over
game over! 🙏
I didn't think how Sumo would influence a wrestling position
John Hans yeah from the clinch sumo can sometimes just turn into a greco roman style wrestling battle.
Watch more sumo. It is a pure full contact wrestling.
scoop thow, aka Wedge throw
Yeah I have heard that too, I just took the name from Lyoto Machidas book.
and they say karate is useless
There are alot of throws, takedowns and grappling in karate. Its all in the kata. If you understand the practical application (bunkai) then you will see these techniques! Unfortunately the art has been watered down over the years
Just like jj is karate without kata
Yeah I think a lot of the so called blocks in karate kata are better understood as grappling techniques than as blocking punches and kicks as people often practice. Removing the arm of someone who is grabbing you much more practical with those motions which are far too robotic to actually stop a strike lol.
that is the main difference between competition karate and traditional karate ... traditional karate is supposed to be lethal and effective
Classic! 🙏
1:26 not that hard
For some!
@@SonnyBrown Did you just reply to a almost 2 year old comment. I respect that.
@@Samuel-sg2iv yes I did haha just catching up.
@@SonnyBrown Lol no worries it was just funny. Have a happy 4th of july man.
ZUMO WRESTLING....
haha My friends have called me up on my pronunciation of Sumo as well. Not sure why I say it like that :)
I like it. lol!
Karate has actually been so misrepresented and watered down by Western culture and media that people actually think it's useless....it not only has striking and blocking techniques but sweeps and throws as well, it teaches the concept of distance in its sparring as well as quick yet heavy, yet controlled strikes so that you won't injure your opponent. Try throwing a punch or kick at full speed then end up tapping and not injuring your sparring partner. So many people can't, they lack control. The Kata is effective, if people would just try to understand the meaning and applications behind them. If you think Kata is just a performance and Kata players can't actually fight, well why don't you try actually fighting a Kata player then?
I don't get the competition on which martial art is better/worse. We are supposed to see what we can learn from those arts not be a keyboard warrior who thinks a certain art isn't good just because he/she never tried it. Whatever works for you, works!
I think kata is widely misunderstood. Lots of bunkai applications that are demonstrated are fantasy. Even old school karate guys get it wrong. I think if you compress the fighting distance, the bunkai becomes more credible and actually devastating. This requires many years of study though. Not everyone is dedicated enough to put that kind of time in.

Sonny Brown lol I was the 666th person to like the video :)
Demiurgo tattoo/games and that was the 66th comment ! 😂Coincidence?
Sonny Brown 😰😈 kk
Okinawa karate was made to kill, not to dance as a chicken on tatamis.
Although dancing can be fun!
@@SonnyBrown Aha so true my friend.
Hes a good fighter but he's getting older
Yes, I fear we may have already seen his best, but you never know for sure 🙏🙏🙏
He is my fave also but time is undefeated
