I Trained for 24 Hours with UFC Welterweight @WonderboyMMA Please go subscribe to his channel! If you like my stuff, check out my website! www.senseiseth.com
I couldnt stop thinking about when one of them (possibly) follows theirs mentors footsteps and there's footage of them at 7 years old beating the shit out of other kids in a mob on ESPN
Wonderboy listening to Mr. Ballen ("strange, dark, and mysterious") while running hills is the most relatable thing I've ever seen from a UFC superstar. I love his fighting style, his personality, and now, I love seeing how he trains. Very cool video, Sensei Seth!
The Chemistry between you und Stephen is special. Wonderboy is really one of a kind. Just turned 40 but kicking it like a 25 year old. And Sweet-T is a freaking sleeper, never thought he would be so fast with his build.
@@xerone10 no, not sure if you play fought much as a child but its extremely hard to injure eachother at that age, your bones are soft and still "flexy" i remember play fighting with my friends all the time at that size and the worst that ever happened was someone wpuld cry from pain. Trust me its better they learn now than wait till they are grown to start, thats when you can get seriously injured
Taking a minute to talk about his character and how he makes people feel good about themselves was the right thing to do, man. If I had to pick between everyone knowing how to fight and everyone knowing how to be as good to people as Wonderboy, I know which one I’d pick. You’re one of the good ones too, Seth, just so you know. Taking a minute to point that out about Wonderboy proves it alone.
@@SenseiSeth It looks like his speed very much comes from how relaxed he is. It's easier to be fast when you aren't tense at all. Also him and his brother having trained together since they were young probably helps.
The physical resilience necessary for Mixed Martial Arts is truly astounding. They don't call this Mixed Martial Arts for nothing because this requires strength, stamina, speed, and an extremely high tolerance to pain and pandemonium. Seth, my brother, I commend you for your courage and endurance with Master Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson. And, to Master Thompson, bravissimo to you, sir.
Wow, that training was intense, and to think these were the EASY days. Also great to see what a fantastic guy Wonderboy is. Always love to see people who are so good at their craft staying humble and down-to-earth.
Hey Seth, the part about meeting Wonderboy and how he made you feel special really hit me in the feels. I took martial arts for about six months before I had to stop because I couldn't make my work schedule fit with my class schedule. Well, I recently started taking classes again after something like a year off and the second I walked in everyone was super excited to see me and super excited to hear that I was gonna be taking classes again. I can't remember the last time I felt so good! It's really cool when someone can make you feel immediately welcome and like you belong there! That story shot me right through the heart!
Huge props to you, Sensei Seth, for doing this video. And don't sell yourself short. You're a tank and you have heart going into a camp with pro fighters and being game for anything. That's some potential there. You have the size, strength and power. You're no joke. And Stephen Thompson just got a fan in me especially for taking time to hold kids camp during his own camp. Shows where his priorities are.
Never heard from anyone that wonderboy has fake hustle in any way- training, being a good dude, fighting, he seems like the type who legitimately gives his full attention to everything he does and that relates into being present and thats the thing that makes people feel special themselves and know a person who has that quality when talking to them is special.
Man the footage doesn’t do it justice for how brutal running those trails is. When I was a wildland firefighter we called it being broke off. Seth, you were broke the F off. Good job though, I admire your perseverance.
Please do more Training Camp Vids. Basically, Anything will be awesome. I just love watching and learning from the routines you do for fight prep. Just seeing how it is done by the best is so freaking awesome and I try to incorporate any little thing I can from it into my life.
Awesome video! I really love that you called out Thompsons personality, we need more of that just like you said. The best compliment I ever received as a martial arts instructor was not about my fighting or coaching skills… they said I was the nicest guy you would meet in town. It felt a little weird at first but it has also become my legacy after closing my school which is kind of amazing all things considered.
Honestly, this was really beautiful. Especially his honest observation of Stephen Thompson just being... A really good person. Above all else. Wonderboy is just a really good dude deep down. Proud of you Seth. Ya did good man.
Wonder Boy running hills is some nice inspiration for me to get back out on the trail. I think He's a great example of what a good man should be. Awesome vid Seth.
13:19 - What earned my respect from you more than just my curiosity and interest was that in your INTRO back in the day was you getting kicked in the side of the head by Wonderboy and you made a point of including the sound so we knew it was a solid lovetap. A man that can be that humble and funny deserved a subscription and support, and I've never regretted it since.
to be a martial artist isnt to own a high rank belt or have a lot of expirience, but it is a life style. Stephen Wonderboy Thompson and others live that life style that deserve to be called real martial artists. not anyone else this is why i think being a martial artist is a big step to being in the top 1% of people, along with wealth and education
Oh I'm absolutely subbed to WB & Sweet T & u too of course. Loved the video Seth. Great work. Those r some rough days. U r a champ for doing it& filming it.
The way you feel by the trainer is just another way of gut feeling. The trainer i had chance to train just for few months was similar. I got to his training and he said: sit over there. Nothing else than 100% focus on the students, then after the training was ended he came to me and as peer mortal asked what i want to know, what, how, when and so on, that time he held several profi belts already and still had that 100% focus on the students. Respect to Jiri Zak from Chomutov in Czech rep.
Here's the thing that stood out in the whole sparring part of your video - I like the trap that you did with ST's brother. Wonderboy's conditioning is insane.
Seth, that was awesome effort and I love your martial arts journey. I love how Stephen sat down with you when you were gassed and just had a peaceful moment rather than shitting on you for not doing everything he does as a pro. Way to put in that work, awesome video. Stay safe and much love to ya!
Yo sweet tea was throwing hard at you man. You defended and attacked REALLY well. I couldn't imagine, I'd have my butt kicked I'd be dead and unable to defend ANYTHING at that point during the day.
Ahh, the nestolga. I grew up in Upstate Karate. I started my Karate journey there and Steven was my teacher back when he was a teenager. I love that guy, he is one of the most laid back, chillest, funniest, nices person who could kick your butt in an instant.
What an awesome experience. I’m jealous sensei Seth. But truthfully I would be sucking air much more than you on those hills. Embracing the suck isn’t easy. This makes me want to get out and move.
Wonderboy is gonna be eternal, he’s gonna keep getting better with age and that’s a credit to all the different things he’s doing, being with kids talking to people, that’s gonna keep him young and keep him going I hope I can have a life and impact even slightly akin to yours
Awesome video, that cheeky leg sweep you did on Sweet T was super cool, had him stumbling there. Were you just experimenting with that? love the creativity in your vids and sparring!
Love the content sensei seth! I always enjoy your videos and it was neat to hear wonderboy listening to a mrballen video I really like his story telling
Hill running is a great exercise! My football coach would have use do hill sprints absolutely miserable but come game day you realize you’re not running out of energy so it’s a necessary misery lol
Just a different spin on the whole "telling pro fighters what to do" thing: Just shows how much of a natural teacher @SenseiSeth truly is! He cannot help pushing people to improve, passionate about sharing knowledge, and humble enough to learn with the best 😆
I saw your comment after I had already posted a similar comment, but yeah, that was cool. Even UFC fighters need some strange, dark, and mysterious content in their lives.
Just watched your Scottish games videos… lol Your videos are incredibly entertaining and fun! You go all out and do so well with little training. So impressive honestly and throw in some humor… can’t go wrong! 👍❤
wow even edited that looked reall hard and yet I'd love to try something like this! I think you did great Sensei Seth! Not sure I would've lasted as long as you did :D
not the most rounded fighter but a true master - and the importance of passing on the art - and he can give kids a real perspective about Karate fairs in MMA - and a guy that can make you smile :D Wondaboi till ya doi
I respect this man for trying all this stuff and not being afraid too step outta his comfort zone every chance he gets instead of being a chicken shit like me😂Keep up the great work sir

Next up, full training camp with amateur mma fight to top it off! Like this comment so Seth can’t deny it! 👊🏼💪🏼😂
That’s going to be an amazing series!!!
Thats a great idea
Let’s gooooooooo
Vengaaaa ❤️🔥🫶🏻
I hope so🙏🙏🙏
It will be an insane feeling when these kids get old enough and realize who their afternoon coach is.
Never thought about that but 100% lol
Good point 😊 to the kids he just some guy that teaches them martial arts
Perception is different for kids .. they r just there to train and have fun 😊
I couldnt stop thinking about when one of them (possibly) follows theirs mentors footsteps and there's footage of them at 7 years old beating the shit out of other kids in a mob on ESPN
I mean they probably already think he's kinda badass but doesn't show it.
@@jonathanbrooks9768wait he did that??
Its phenomenal that he keeps teaching kids even while he's in training camp. What a great, salt of the earth dude.

I thought I recognised that voice
Lol that was awesome
I went straight to the comments to see if anybody recognized mr ballen😂
I was like-
“There’s no way was it??”
So I play it back and I’m like-
“IT IS!!!!😆”
Ya at 2:05
This would be cool if you had actually trained for 24 hours straight... I think that would make a GREAT video.
The chubby surprise would be a lot less chubby if he did that 😅
You trying to kill the man?! But yeah, I agree.
😂😂 so are you suggesting a Collab mike?
Quit trying to make me do this lol
Nah the whole training camp and he fights you at the end
2:05 😂 love it dude!
Yoo!! I’ll tell him you commented! He’s a BIG fan
I thought I heard that, love your stuff dude
I KNEW I caught your intro when he was running those hills ❤😊
Nothing more ironic than running in a forest while listening to Mr. Ballen. lol
Hence the music I picked lol
The chubby surprise never lets me down 😊
THIS is great. Wonderboy is such a champion at life
The Chemistry between you und Stephen is special. Wonderboy is really one of a kind. Just turned 40 but kicking it like a 25 year old. And Sweet-T is a freaking sleeper, never thought he would be so fast with his build.
Exactly. I was surprised at how fast he was.
WB is 40?!?!
Chubby surprise
Seeing the kids spar each other was the best part. 😂
I forgot about the takedowns until I saw one kid beating the crap out of another kid on the floor
yes they are the future of martial arts.....
Isnt it a bit weird that they are sparring that hard at such a young age and probably fairly low skill level?
@@xerone10 no, not sure if you play fought much as a child but its extremely hard to injure eachother at that age, your bones are soft and still "flexy" i remember play fighting with my friends all the time at that size and the worst that ever happened was someone wpuld cry from pain. Trust me its better they learn now than wait till they are grown to start, thats when you can get seriously injured
Ya the one kid throwing kicks was insane😂

You’re one of the good ones too, Seth, just so you know. Taking a minute to point that out about Wonderboy proves it alone.
Also sparring against man who knocked out Anderson Silva? My knees would be KNOCKIN.
Love that point you made about WB being an amazing person. Also didn't know Sweet T was so damn scary when sparring...
It is, you’d THINK it’s because of how strong he is that it’s scary. But it’s honestly because of how fast he is
One big boy
@@SenseiSeth do you or anyone else know why this dude didn't decide to go the professional route? (If it's too personal to him ignore this)
@@SenseiSeth It looks like his speed very much comes from how relaxed he is. It's easier to be fast when you aren't tense at all. Also him and his brother having trained together since they were young probably helps.
@@SenseiSeth the chubby surpriser became the chubby surprise-ee

it wasnt as crazy as most fighters camps. and thats what makes it kinda interesting
15:30 In all of the videos I've watched, I've never noticed how explosive Sweet T is. His quickness in y'all's round was terrifying.
it's a good warning that big dudes don't have to be slow.
There's been a few times during wonder boys competition vids where sweet T just randomly does the best kick out of the competition
Hey Seth, the part about meeting Wonderboy and how he made you feel special really hit me in the feels. I took martial arts for about six months before I had to stop because I couldn't make my work schedule fit with my class schedule.

My hero - training like a madman and still teaching classes! Great video.
So, your training with Wonderboy to get ready for your Karate Combat debut, right?
Huge props to you, Sensei Seth, for doing this video. And don't sell yourself short. You're a tank and you have heart going into a camp with pro fighters and being game for anything. That's some potential there. You have the size, strength and power. You're no joke. And Stephen Thompson just got a fan in me especially for taking time to hold kids camp during his own camp.

Watching him coach McGregor's crew confirms this
WB: Finish or you're not coming back
Seth: finds the strength to start running again
Big props. Training's never easy. You definitely do a lot for both yourself and this channel. Keep it up!
Those kids are doing throws, takedowns and full contact sparring. This is how karate should be taught
Man the footage doesn’t do it justice for how brutal running those trails is. When I was a wildland firefighter we called it being broke off. Seth, you were broke the F off. Good job though, I admire your perseverance.
You and Wonderboy are of the same ilk. Incredibly kind and caring, while being able to kick butt, great video!
Please do more Training Camp Vids. Basically, Anything will be awesome. I just love watching and learning from the routines you do for fight prep. Just seeing how it is done by the best is so freaking awesome and I try to incorporate any little thing I can from it into my life.

Just got back from teaching bjj kids class then open mat and strength training. And what do I find?
An awesome new Sensei Seth video!
Honestly, this was really beautiful. Especially his honest observation of Stephen Thompson just being... A really good person. Above all else. Wonderboy is just a really good dude deep down.
Proud of you Seth. Ya did good man.
Wonder Boy running hills is some nice inspiration for me to get back out on the trail. I think He's a great example of what a good man should be. Awesome vid Seth.
the zoom in on stephens toes 💀
This is so motivating! Awesome video from both of you guys! Thank you!
One of your best videos. The Thompson family never fails to impress.
13:19 - What earned my respect from you more than just my curiosity and interest was that in your INTRO back in the day was you getting kicked in the side of the head by Wonderboy and you made a point of including the sound so we knew it was a solid lovetap.

I love that you opened up with training outdoors. That was paramount to this ADD athlete's success. Piping on Mr Ballen was icing on the cake!
Nicely done Seth pushing your limits. Keep it up
to be a martial artist isnt to own a high rank belt or have a lot of expirience, but it is a life style. Stephen Wonderboy Thompson and others live that life style that deserve to be called real martial artists. not anyone else

Oh I'm absolutely subbed to WB & Sweet T & u too of course. Loved the video Seth. Great work. Those r some rough days. U r a champ for doing it& filming it.
Bro those kids are not messing around lmao
All of you from Jesse enkamp to Jeff chan, are all wonderful people to watch, best part of humanity is in all these videos. Thank you sensei!
In my opinion, when SETH spars ANYONE, it's like poetry in motion.
The way you feel by the trainer is just another way of gut feeling. The trainer i had chance to train just for few months was similar. I got to his training and he said: sit over there.

I love this, spending most the day teaching the kids, that is a beautiful thing, Wonderboy is a great example of a true martial artist bless you 🙏
“Do you think Chris is gonna be upset?” That caught me so off-guard 🤣
You did good Seth! Kept powering through the sparring
I love the love you show here. There are such good people out there and we wouldn't know. Thanks for pointing us to some of them.
Wonderboy is such a great guy. We need more fighters like him.
Amazing video much respect to WB for all his hard work and to you Seth for all your hard work on these amazing videos!
Yo sweet tea was throwing hard at you man. You defended and attacked REALLY well. I couldn't imagine, I'd have my butt kicked I'd be dead and unable to defend ANYTHING at that point during the day.
Great video Seth. I liked the "How I met Wonderboy" segment, and my legs were tired just watching y'all fo that hill.
👍👍

Your content with WB is always top tier seth👍
This video is gonna be interesting. I have always wondered what it’s like to experience a training camp first-hand
What an awesome experience. I’m jealous sensei Seth. But truthfully I would be sucking air much more than you on those hills. Embracing the suck isn’t easy. This makes me want to get out and move.
I gotta say this is probably one of my favorite videos!
Such a good video, appreciate your humlity with Stephen, most of us commenting would feel the same amount meeting you!
Wonderboy is a gem and we must protect him at all costs. Seth is pretty awesome too.
great freaking video!!! I love how hard work is the best recipe for success. Wonderboy doing it for years, and still is one of the best in the world.
How cool must it be for those kids to be taking karate classes with such a legend!
Wonderboy is gonna be eternal, he’s gonna keep getting better with age and that’s a credit to all the different things he’s doing, being with kids talking to people, that’s gonna keep him young and keep him going
I hope I can have a life and impact even slightly akin to yours

He's simply the best. I would love to meet him again. One of the best days of my life! Seth...put in a good word for me!!! 🤞🤜🤛
9:25 the close up each time he wiggles his toes 😂😂
Hill running is a great exercise! My football coach would have use do hill sprints absolutely miserable but come game day you realize you’re not running out of energy so it’s a necessary misery lol

12:44 i want wonderboy to be champion so badly 😭
fantastic video! you and WB got great chemistry. Also noticed WB was listening to Mr.ballen during the hills segment.
I saw your comment after I had already posted a similar comment, but yeah, that was cool. Even UFC fighters need some strange, dark, and mysterious content in their lives.
So much energy and positivity...nice
Love that you used the instrumental for "JORT STORM" at 4:10 💯
I do Muay Thai and I just randomly came across your video. I like your video man, love the funny bits!
Just watched your Scottish games videos… lol
Your videos are incredibly entertaining and fun! You go all out and do so well with little training. So impressive honestly and throw in some humor… can’t go wrong! 👍❤
Awesome stuff - Wonderboy is a legend! And with a beard, his dad now looks like Ronnie Drew, so that's a bonus.
Wonder boy just seems like the absolute greatest dude. I wish nothing but the best in life for him
great vid very fun to watch... i love the honest commentary
2:06 wouldn’t blame him, Mr Ballen’s storytelling is top tier!
wow even edited that looked reall hard and yet I'd love to try something like this! I think you did great Sensei Seth! Not sure I would've lasted as long as you did :D
Wonder is listening to Mr. BALLEN....I LIKE HIM EVEN MORE!
That transitions fine bro! Love the karate kid rocky style montage
not the most rounded fighter but a true master - and the importance of passing on the art - and he can give kids a real perspective about Karate fairs in MMA - and a guy that can make you smile :D Wondaboi till ya doi
WB is a true martial artist, in skill and in character. Can’t help but love the guy
The picture at the end was hilarious. It was almost like a wedding photo.
I love wonderboy and how he just takes seth under his wing so happily
Wonderboy is everything that a blackbelt should be. He is everything that karate/martial arts exemplifies. His parents should be super proud.
Wonderboy is literally a comic book good guy martial artist...
You can't help but like him and want him to win every fight.
Dude is amazing
Great content. Amazing how hard he trains
Totally crazy that Wonderboy is 40 still looks 20
this guy is always fun, great athlete. keeps in top shape!!
Love it. Great video. Really fun to watch
I respect this man for trying all this stuff and not being afraid too step outta his comfort zone every chance he gets instead of being a chicken shit like me😂Keep up the great work sir
Absolute stud. Wonder boy is a rare gem
"It's 6 years later, and I'm still giving professional fighters advice!"
When you're good, you're good. 😎
After the first 5 mins when Wonderboy says that’s round 1 baby and Seth just says Oh no! So good !
Always love your videos!
These kids going at each other for real!
Wonderboy just seems like the fuckin nicest person ever
great video... great that steven listens to the strange dark and mysterious podcast while running up hills
