    Nice vid. This is one of the most common moves I've seen at the start of a fight. Many people automatically go for the tackle for some reason and I believe learning a defense against it is a must.

    I'm a classically trained boxer, with pretty good footwork, pretty fast and solid punches, but trying to maintain technique in a street fight is hard because the other person will always want to grab me by my shirt, or whatever the case may be. These videos certainly helped me get a better understanding in what to do in those situations! Thanks! Even though I'm an amateur boxer, this stuff really helped out.

    My favorite part of your videos is you use more real energy and techniques that will actually work. Anytime I see someone in a karategi or some equivalent martial arts uniform I know it's going to be (mostly) idealized bullcrap. This is real stuff and I love it. Keep the vids coming, brother.

      I agree with you.Elbow to the head , spine or back of the neck is the best defence against a low take down. Real self defence has no rules. Take downs are effective in MMA fights because of the rules against hitting the back of the neck, spine etc. In the street such low take downs can get you killed.

      @@JackBlair2008 agreed, also, you can lean forward and grab the back of their belt/pants waist band to prevent them from causing you to fall backwards. Also you get the benefit of them possibly losing their balance and falling face first with your weight on top of them.

  • @danielskipp1
    @danielskipp1 11 лет назад

    Pay attention, people.This is how to do it. Drossos is schooling y'all.
    If you have superior skills you can get fancy with strikes to the head and eye-gouges, maybe even trapping... but Drossos' teaches the maximum chance failsafe works-every-time move... so that is what you should do.
    Kicks and knees might work.. but then they might just get you dumped on the ground. Your choice.
    I have only watched 3 of your vids so far and I am totally impressed. Great work. Thank you!

    @ Nick Drossos Defensive Tactics: I've seen more people taken down by way of being more squared up as opposed to you blading yourself with your rear leg back at: 03:00. I've seen a Kenpoist (sparring with ground fighter) just angle off/pivot every time the grappler would try and change angles on him with the single leg takedown attempt (the ground fighter having a hold on his front leg). Would you agree with this stance or do you think it's just a matter of training your mind to see movement, squared up or not? I ask bc I also notice traditional striking schools don't train or haven't upgraded their defense to the shoot and takedown.

      This is not effective!! I’ve wrestled for 4 years and currently train bjj and can tell you it’s bs I don’t want anyone getting hurt doing bs they find on RUclips that’s why I hate Chanel’s like these look up wrestling sprawls and see how to actually counter a takedown. But I suggest you practice a few times before being confident enough to do in a street fight

    • @bigmohammedbby6474
      @bigmohammedbby6474 3 года назад

      Another reason you can tell it’s bs is bc he said it’s okay if they get one leg 😭 with one leg can get you a single leg,high crotch and set up a sweap while both legs only set up a double leg takedown

  • @xyokowan
    @xyokowan 10 лет назад +2

    He could just hit an outside single and chase your knee or shelf it. And what do you mean its not that bad if he gets one leg? I assume this is if the person is not good at taking shots. Plus why do you block with your forearms, he could get underneath you real fast.

    • @danielskipp1

  • @TheDTagz

    Good video clip as always! Myself I like the sprawl because if the opponent is very good and fast the sprawl works most of the time and the opponent will not get a grip on your legs. But in the streets you must get up as quickly as you can after your sprawl. But can you intercept as you show on the videoclip thats fine. Thank you!

I don’t want anyone getting hurt trying to do bs so look up wrestling sprawls is you rlly wanna know but I advise you practice.

    If, God forbid, the attacker does get a grip on you or even lift you up another really effective instant finisher is the double ear slap. Slap both ears at once or slap one while covering the other earhole. He will be stunned for at least a moment and you can finish him easy.

      so the strength of a strong man's neck is more than the focused wrench by a determined person's whole core, waist, legs and arms? Me thinks not. Try it... oh, now you know the problem with training real fighting moves... they maim and kill. No protective equipment that works exists for the neck vs a crank.
      There are other defences... the eye gouge... the ear slap. No power needed to fuck up giants. MMA sucks.

But thats just from messing around ina real situation if you see the opportunity go for it - you want to end the fight as quickly as possible, don't drag it out like you're an MMA fighter (:

    None of that would ever work. Because to stop a tackle your arms gotta be above theirs. Which will never ever happen. They always go for the tackle into a bear hug. They always aim for the chest between the collar bone and biceps.
    If someone doesn't then the tackle probably wont work unless they are trained.
    So if someone does it you wont see them in advance. You wont be able to get your arms up. They'll probably standing clinch your arms against your chest or worse, on the ground. And also be in another weight class above you.
    The odds it will be a judo slam versus a normal takedown are like 90% because the goal is to slam your skull against the rocky ground. Not gain a strategic position.
    If you could just do this, cops would never be able to catch any badguys. They'd all be mma champs. But brute force that is beyond you will be what you face and this will break your fingers against a drunk us marine. You will get mugged from a giant crook with or without a gun.
    Unless they are at your weight class or below. Which will never happen on the streets then. None of this can stop a takedown.
    I mean if someone in your weight class or below does it. Sure this is great. Just a bit of competition.
    But what will actually happen is you pull up in a kia forte and some dude in a nissan armada fn slams into you and completely totals your day. Your strategy is completely useless now. Your head has struck the pavement, you're now in the icu.

      Have you ever used the windex technique?
      I'M KIDDING, I HAVE GREEK FRIENDS!
      Besides, I know you would break me like a dish if you wanted to.

    @creativecombats i wouldn't call a sprawl totally going to the ground, you stil on the base of the balls of your feet. If theres tons of guys, wouldn't they be clamoring on you the minute he ties you up anyway. plus if he has no friends or alies, whos there to stomp?
