Karate vs. Muay Thai (FIGHT)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 фев 2021
- Thai Boxing vs Karate started in 1963, when Kyokushin co-founder Kenji Kurosaki got knocked out by a Muay Thai fighter in Thailand (Bangkok) at Lumpinee Stadium. This sparked the Japanese invention of Kickboxing. As a result, the feud between Karate and Muay Thai escalated. In today's video I aim to end the rivalry by fighting Petch Aek Sitjaopho (Poonnasit Kambung). Enjoy! :)

Kung fu
BJJ
Pilipino martial arts
Krav Maga
Kyokushin karata
He was giggling because every time you clinched or threw a kick, your head was wide open for a vicious elbow and he knew it.
He should get beat up by a boxer next. Boxers are the only dudes that actually throw clean punches every one else focuses on kicks to much

"He held back?"
With 400 fights under his belt, I would hope he held back.
Yeah that’s fair
400? Jesus Christ what a warrior
With 400 fights... he has to hold back... has to... like... mandatory... he HAS TO HOLD BACK!
@@amitmukherjee1455 sorry mate
400 fights, at that level, since he has 9!? With that much experience his Ring IQ must be insane! he can probably read people so damn well he can tell what they're going to do before they even do......
All the small little details of fighting that most people never learn that take a lifetime to master, he's got them!
mad mad respect! imagine being able to learn from someone like this
What catches me the most about this video is how humble you are. I've practiced BJJ, Krav Maga, and now Muay Thai, and with each, you find the same, the ego, the pride, and the inability to learn from your opponent, especially in defeat. You, kind Sir, embody the spirit of Martial Arts. It was a pleasure to watch.
Wow, thank you! 🙏
I just got my brown in KENPO!.... "standing jiu-jitsu" is the guide book!...to each its about what works I THINK FOR THE PERSON! IMO!. me I'm pretty witty improve! [KENPO'S benefit] then structure jiu-jitsu practices. See it's what u FEEL!.
I RESPECT ALL but!!! BUSHIDO everyone IS A BLACK BELT or their BROTHER or UNCLE is a black BELT etc etc etc! Sure sure Than why does 98% Don't actually practice!.... SENSAI. TOLD ME I HAVE 5 CLASSES THIS WEEK!..... HEY JIU-JITSU GUYS! [HE teaches a FEMALE DEFENSE]
he wants me to get beat up by woman!
"Sure MASTER. punish me ok!"
@@maRanTCaseYga237???
You are right! The first time I submitted a guy ( for the record he don't want let me do it) he seeked revenge in red fury..after few days the master stopped him and tell him:whe are here to learn..in victory and defeat..but most important..he's not your enemy..sometimes you win..sometimes you lose..the life is made of that..but you got to respect..always..
Bro really did the classic "Friendship is power" and thought we wouldn't notice 💀
Naruto aah line 💀
He gets his ass kicked. He learns from it. And he shows it. He explicitly points out that Muay Thai master was holding back. Jesse, you have my respect.
Underrated Comment 👍
he took the loss like a boss, and i love and respect it
Well it seems like there is some weight differences
@Marcus D GREAT and who? jesse or poonasit?
@Marcus D GREAT don't give the guy ideas. Manny may no longer be in his prime but if it's boxing we're talking about he can still decimate.
“It’s time to restore the honor of Karate”
Gets absolutely destroyed.
Aye good fight tho
well, the point of his video, or rather the message he wanted to bring across, was that despite our different styles it is more important what unites us than what sets us apart!
@@amoreazione3563 exactly. And that karate is really not great for fighting but more conditioning 😂 Not saying it can’t be used cause GSP in the ufc used karate a ton but he also mixed it up with other styles so it worked great for him.
@Just Smoking Boxing is even better. Most muay thai practicioners dont have good boxing. And when youre out there, in a bar, wearing your skinny jeans, you cant throw proper kicks or stuff.
@Tyler Ton Punches are much easier to land than elbows. Elbows to the head are nothing compared to intercontinental ballistic missile to the face.
GREAT VIDEO!! As a boxer I once challenged a Karate Practitioner! It went back and forth.Both of us landing devastating shots but his low kicks and kicks to the body were killing me.I admitted defeat and joined a Kickboxing gym soon after! We became good friends and still train together till today.
Do you know what style of karate he did?
Jesus, when Poonnasit came in at 4:21 with his bag he looked like an average asian coming straight out a supermarket. Humble and inconspicous, but a killer in the ring when things get serious. Awesome.

It's called "wai kuru" for reminding there teachers but the hidden idea is to stretching the legs the body yo warming up
he was having his own anime flashback to give him buffs
Hahahahhahahahah😂
@@delaqroix wai kru se dice, no wai kuru
is amazing how the champion doesn't even look like it, at least in the physical way. looks more like the normal guy you would cross everyday, and yet the guy is a beast. so the lesson here: never judge a book by its appearance. great video, Jesse!
I love your authentic passion for exploring martial arts. You don't have to be the good guy or the winner; you're just on your own adventure and are sharing it with the world.
Thank you!
“The human brain isn’t good at reacting, but it is good at predicting”
My brain who isn’t good at both: interesting...
😅🤣
Little bit of combat focus never hurt anyone, you will learn, i have hope for you!
My teacher always wants us to react and not to think about there next move. But i cant help it when i can read the person really good
I'm good at reacting and not predicting.

สุดยอดเลย ครับ อยู่ที่การเรียนรู้ การเข้าใจ ไม่มีถูก ผิด แต่ล่ะศาสตร์ มวยไทยคนนี้ ชื่อ อะไร น่ะ
Muay thai was basically made when a Thai dude was like "how can I use all my limbs like baseball bats?"
Then baseball was invented.
and thats how strong thai fighters are especially their shin bones because of the conditioning
That’s why I transitioned from kempo karate to Muay Thai
More like "how can I break a baseball bat with my limbs..."
@@hemi5.7awdpursuit5 i mean, you can do them in conjunction, look at Stephen Thompson for example
Very good Jesse , that last line touch the soul again and that same thing I always said.

My love to all martial arts practitionar.
Dear Jesse!
Thanks to you this video inspired me to start my Muay Thai career in the Netherlands, i've been in my first training this week, if i will be a world champion im going to mention you, as the man who started all this. Thank you
Go Go bro i support you
Karate style : hit and pull back
Muay Thai : hit and destroy
Yep you got it right, the mentality for each hit in Muay Thai is to trespass the other person's body part, so they use body weight, tempo and everything handy to accomplish that.
not necessarily
Reading this made my brain go aaaaaall the way back to my childhood when I learned one meanings of kata Gekisai, which was basically "attack and destroy."
@@TenchigumiYup Karate's no joke
Tkd: hit hit hit hit hit hit hit
I’m from Thailand and his praying is like showing the respect to like the master and to like boxing and the sport it a tradition it actually beautiful
That's like so cool like good to know like thanks for the info.

Wow like that’s like kinda like cool like
This is like getting like way out of hand......like
That’s so long tho
Jesse, I’m so impressed by your approach to share your experiences with all the Martial Arts and it’s great to see humble Experts like this Thai guy.
Thanks 🙏
That was nice to watch, as I never understood the rivalries between styles. You and your opponent focus on sharing and respecting each other and that stands for every martial art in the world.
I appreciate that!
I see love in Poonnasit's eyes, there's no hatred or anger in those eyes
I was going to say, the energy off this guy is incredible. That's what a real master of something looks like
He's a buddhist

"Just stay away from him"
One of the best martial arts advice i've ever heard in my life
If you master this one ... you do not need another. Seriously... a definite strength of some karate styles.
@@PrydeFoltz shiai kumite
Well. He was right... Solid advice from a friend. XD
What a wonderful video! It is so nice to see people coming together and learning from each other with openness, humility, and respect. 🙏
bro i love how you pick up things i can't. your commentaries are so good.
The purpose of ritual are;
1. Thankful of their teachers
2. Prepare the mind or concentration
3. Warm up body
4. Servey and monitoring the fighting area.
I add one more from the East-Asian's point of view : Safety and protection from the God(s).
Wow.........You are good man.
That's right !
And 5 is they fight with confident and thinking they can win but don’t overconfident.
@@ftd7435 this is even further excentuated when you look specifically at the ram muay in the wai kru ram muay, a lot of the dances are meant to be artistic representations of Buddhistic spiritual stories and such, and incredibly popular one in thailand is the creatiom story about Garuda(I think thats the spelling, its the eagle one) which is a creation story borrowed from Indian culture.
Him : "what should I do against this muay Thai master?"
His friend :
"You should stay away from his elbow"
"Stay away from his knees"
"Stay away from his lowkicks"
"Stay away from his clinch"
"You know what, just stay away from him. That's the safest option"
Got me 🤣🤣🤣
I laughed at this part😂
His brother
Thank you very much! You and your partner are really inspiring. The kind muay thai specialist made my day with his nice words. Thanks for the video!
The Muai Thai instructors humbleness got me emotional not gona lie, great words of wisdom, just love what you do :')
Loved how you respected both arts, this is not the typical video about what's the best art. It's about beeing humble and learning from the other. Great channel.
Eh, que haces aca? jajajsdasda
El mundo es un pañuelo por lo que se ve. XD
Concordo
NO MAMES
vamos milei wacho
I like that Jesse turns everything into a learning experience. He doesn't get frustrated or angry. He asks questions because he wants to learn. Zero ego and I respect that greatly.
Either win or learn! 👍
That is why I am a subscriber. He leaves any 'My Style VS Your Style' completely out of the discussion.
I absolutely love the genuine scholarly attitude Jesse takes.
Excellent vid Jesse thanks
A true marshall artist
This's the most informative, instructive, yet enjoyable video I've ever watched. Thanks
Hi man, really enjoyed the content. Aek is a true legend, i trained for a month with his twin brother at Sitjaopho camp. They are famous for their clean form and balance. Even Lawren Kenshin made a video about 'em not long ago
The dance in the beginning is to boost our damage intake by 25%
It's called an animation buff, and a good player would have canceled it just with an auto attack.
Bcs it frustrates people?
Taunt and warming up
It's a warming up..loosing the body.
it's kind of concerning how many people didn't get the joke
Oh jeez 😂 I knew it was bad news when he started doing the rituals
Haha that makes 2 of us 😅
3 of us lmao
FYI The arrows hurt the most! P.S. Keep practicing your low kicks on Icy Mike's head.
The ritual is called Wai Kru
@@KARATEbyJesse the Front Kick is performed with the Rear Leg. The Snap Kick is performed with the Lead Leg. Is there anything like the Snap Kick within the Karate family? (also these are called Teeps when you push instead of kick)..
I was not expecting this kind of ending but this video is very very good. thanks for sharing.
Best martial arts RUclips on the platform. This is just excellent in so many ways
You know that Poonnasit is some sort of final boss-type character when rocks up to the gym carrying his gear in a reuseable shopping bag.
love this comment 😅
That's where he keeps his buffs.
He fights like a beast, but his face says: 😁
He looks like he play with his kid or something
😂😂😂
"When sparring, just have fun." He said it.
@@pwnwin I learnt muay thaI in France in the 80's with Pud Pad Noï , a former world champion ; I could recognize the same kind attitude and strong/fluid/natural moves in this video : great !!
I just realized what he meant when he said to you that whatever style you love then that's the one you should enjoy. He had the look of a man who had been forced to fight many times in his life when enjoyment of the art meant nothing when his life may have been at stake to beat the odds. Muay Thai is a beautiful, deadly art that is an iconic representation of the Thai people but it also carries a thinly veiled darker side.
Jesse, you totally grasped the spirit of martial arts revealing what's connecting our arts. The search of excellence through hard work and respect.. Let's all remember your words. Best
The voices he produces are for lowering the tension while sparring. Sometimes Thai box sparring gets a bit too agressive so fighters make '"funny" sounds to show that they are still relaxed
Thats a big whole lie.
Its typical grunts just search for muay thai grunts on youtube
That have NOTHING to do with deescalating why are you saying that
No Thai on this world that practice will laugh if you make this sounds
@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763 Bro what are you Talking about, it’s definetly used to calm down. It’s literally saying „ouch“ when you hear the OhAi..
guys it's not that deep.... it's just to have fun
Pretty sure that's Ooei- which roughly translates to 'come on'
@@tamo9659 I am a lifelong muay thai practitioner and at least in scotland there is zero reason for those noises other than culture. Anyone saying otherwise is disingenuous or hasn't trained.
The fact that he can make such seemingly calm, innocent, and comical noises whilst easily destroying a bigger opponent just makes him seem 10x more awesome.
It's hard to explain what those sounds mean, but the best way I can put it in words... it's like an acknowledgement of a technique being used.
Like, when a good kick is thrown out. "Oooweei!!!!"
Almost like the Karate "Osu!" but more casual.
It's actually a gesture of respect too.
Sounds like Bruce lee
@@1Invinc its common in thai culture "ouwieiiii" "ouuueei" its like "wow" but it is used here as like a joke because when they fought he was mainly just joking around im pre sure
If you're kendoka, judoka, karateka, consider it like kiai, but for every occasion
I love how humble both of you guys are
One of the biggest problems with most martial arts that take a lateral stance such as karate, boxing and taekwondo for example is how the lead leg remains extended at all times, Muay Thai has an advantage over such methods because while taking such a wide stance does allow you to generate more power when throwing from the hip (especially when you sit on your punches) doing so unfortunately comes at a cost when you're in front of a competent muay thai practitioner, in a lateral stance it leaves your lead leg constantly out there open to inside and outside leg kicks because all your weight is being distributed down the center of your body, in muay thai we stand with our shoulders square horizontally and the lead foot is not being placed more than a foot away from the back leg where all the weight is centered i'd say 80 percent of your weight is moved to the back leg, you can see how the muay thai champ can keep his front leg raised because of it quite a lot because of this which allows him to use his front leg like a jamming stick to keep the distance between you any time he feels you're going to close the distance, this is something muay thai truly excels at and probably one of the most effective aspects of the art itself which imo is revolutionary ... the bouncing of the lead leg up and down also acts as a sort of spring which provides quicker reaction time when you need to check leg kicks or deliver a strong front leg teep (muay thai equivalent of a front push kick), you can also generate huge momentum when you eventually plant the front foot to deliver a back leg round house or are devastating knee when your opponent is coming in for an attack.
Fun Fact about weird dance/ritual before fighting: It's called ram muay or wai khru.
The wai is a traditional Thai greeting with the palms together as a sign of respect. Khru is the Thai word means 'teacher'. Ram is the Thai word for dancing in classical style, and muay means 'boxing'. The full term can therefore be translated as 'war-dance saluting the teacher', but Thai speakers generally shorten it either to wai khru or ram muay. The ram muay shows respect and gratitude to the boxer's teacher, parents, and ancestors. In the old days when boxers fought in front of the royalty, the ram muay also paid respect to the king.
Upon entering the ring, fighters circle the ring in a counter-clockwise direction and pray at each corner. They bow their heads at every corner three times in salutation to Buddha, Dharma, and the sangha of monks. They then commence the ram muay, the movements of which are said to be based on Hanuman(The india super monke). The ram muay is a personal ritual, ranging from the very complex to the very simple, and often contains clues about who trained the fighter and where the fighter is from. The ram muay is accompanied by music, providing a rhythm to the boxer's movements.
Btw, muay thai was a traditional martial arts.
Love it! Thanks for the info
Thanks 🙏🏼
STOP
@@KARATEbyJesse maybe you get hit to much. More physical for you
Indian wrestlers also worship Hanuman the monkey God. They also use tools (på svenska: stora påkar) to stregthen the arms similar to some okinawan tools.
There is historical evidence that chinese where influensed by indian martial arts that went through the Himalaya (including white crane qigong "dayan" which went through Himalaya and influenced kung fu, long boxing, taiji). The indians mixed their own styles with greek styles from mesopotania and Alexander the great.
7:50 the noises are a tradition. Usually in competitions and fighting, it’s meant to be somewhat fun. The noises are usually like Ooh-wayy, in English it would be more like complements to your opponent
It means something like "Nice one" or "Good job" and the person saying it is having fun.
To be easy, It was like "Ayyy" or "Wow" or "Nice----"
It's actually intimidation
@@sf1292 nah it's not, I'm a Thai so I know it isn't an intimidation
It was more like "Ayyyy" "Wow" "Nice" like the person above said.
@@sf1292 It’s really not. Like others posted is more akin to “nice one!” more than anything else.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T. ! love this, both of you at the top of your game, respecting each others styles and character. With modest and excellent in fight commentary. in a technically well made and interesting video. Thank you.
This guy is humble, cool, strong and extremely wise that I can't believe he's not a fictional character in anime or something.
I hate to break it to you, but you just described every Muay Thai fighter from Thailand.
THe most frightening part is that he looks just like anyone else, he should be forced by law to wear a sign that reads "danger: can kick your head off if pissed"
I love the fact that Jesse is so humble and doesn’t feel like he has to prove anything.
I love that fact and also that even though we all know it and yet he still narrates that he´s out for blood
Yeah!! I totally agree with you that he is so humble.
I really like this kind of man, no matter what MA style he keeps practicing.
Jesse is a True martial artist. He practices his art with passion, loves it but is open to other ideas. It isn't just about what style you train in, it is also about the person and what they bring to the art.
Priceless
Totally agree.
This maybe one of the greatest videos I’ve watched in years.
you're legendary Jesse, keep going, and showing your art, your dedication.
I really like how Poonnasit tried to match Jesse's level in the spar, and it was only when Jesse showed that he was stronger than expected that he decided to go harder. Really shows the respect muay thai practitioners have for their sparring partner.
I love how you saw it on his face the moment it happened. Like he was going "Oh! Time to play!"
@@kilgornsiegebreak8527 Play? PLAY? PLAY!
No he was gone get fuqqed by the Muay Thai fighter, if he goes all out.
The first time I was allowed to spar in Muay Thai at my gym, my sparring partner was one of our competitive fighters and he was an incredible sparring partner. My gym doesn't allow actual sparring until you have been training for at least 3-4 months and I was excited to finally spar and put to practice everything I had learned. My partner and I went back and forth doing 4 for 4 and I landed a few clean strikes and got a little cocky and stepped up the intensity. As soon as I did that he was keen to let me know I was out of place and matched my intensity and put me in my place real quick lol. @@lemyoboi
When the tiger play with you, let tiger be happy, never make tiger angry. 🤣🤣🤣
Respect all around, great advice, brilliant examples of your arts.
that was the most incredible display of humility and respect I've seen in a long time
I've trained in both disciplines. Ultimately Karate focuses on speed, while Muay Thai focuses on delivering power with each strike. Muay Thai seems to be more practical in a street fight, with more weapons.
Which one did you prefer and which would you say was better or more rounded?
I’ve trained in Thai, however my gf is a Karate 3rd Dan. I understand the basics of karate and that it is more focussed on speed than Thai.
@@martynodonnell8467 personally, I like Thai. I think, in a street fight it’s more effective. Karate is great too, but it takes years of dedicated to become a good Karatéka, while training in Thai can produce results faster. Knowing both would be best.
@@extremelucky1 yeah Karate practitioners tend to have more longevity. Perhaps it’s to do with it not being as taxing, not focusing on fighting in ring and being in top condition as much as learning the art. Thai practitioners tend to not have as much longevity. However due to it being a lot more simpler and easier to pick up, it tends to be quicker to learn. In saying that I have a close friend who took Thai, with proper discipline and dedication, for over 20 years, who turned pro. Therefore there are exceptions.
@@martynodonnell8467 exactly. Karate has a lot of facets besides fighting, whereas, Muay Thai is down to business
guaranteed a muat thai fighter laying people out in a street fight haha
Hi Jesse, the “OO WEEH” sounds are typical of Thai fighters during sparring. Those sounds are meant to prevent a tense atmosphere and keep the sparring relaxed and relatively light. So when you hit your opponent, or when you get hit, you make an “OWAY” sound to show your opponent your not getting emotional or anything.
I like it! It just threw me off 🤪
It's even funnier if you're French as it's sounds like "oh oui". I was also intrigued at first training in Thailand
A french Muay Thai fighter ..... Oui ! Oui ! Oui!
Not muay Thai this is modern so called thai boxing - mixed muay Thai Okinawa karate boxing .
That is exactly what you'll find if you spar with a Korean tkd guy, like a kiai, but longer, more drawn out and with more vowels!
Great video!!!! It was inspiring and loving ✊🏽🔥💝
You can truly see why he is a champ. Thanks for a great video
Such a humble guy with wise advice. He didn't say anything about what martial art is the best but to practice and train the one you enjoy most.
Did the gentleman arrive at the gym carrying a shopping bag for his gear? No fancy gym bling for a Muay Thai champion, a Lumpinee champion no less. Humble, beautiful people 🙏
When people show up with their gear in a plastic shopping bag... you know you’re going to get smashed haha
A full wisdom video! Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Great video thank you for sharing 🙏

Not me bro im tough az bro...ill waste everyone
I went to Thailand with a friend who has many years of practicing boxing/kickboxing/muaythai (I only knew grappling). My friend payed for private lessons with a former champ. I was filming so that my friend could look at his technique afterwards. I was shocked. My friend is 90kg, extremely strong, agile and fast, a monster of a man, but this taiguy who weighed like 60-65kg just dominated my friend when they did some sparring. I could not believe it. It was like a giant was toying with a child. Over and over my friend got tricked, with feigns, unreal timing, trips that put my friend on the ground so the whole floor shock. It was like watching neo from the matrix.
What if your friend was allowed to bodyslam the guy, then your friend would have dominated.
@@savagedoritos6587 you cant body slam a guy that is a master in the clinch, and with throws, and minces your leg's meat, they know what they are doing bro, it is impossible to get close with them, or even touch them.
@@savagedoritos6587 His friend will eat elbow and knee unlimited before body slam.
Heaps of Tactics in Muay Thai. Everyone focuses on their Attack, as out and out assault, but they are extremely tactical fighters!
That's what sets champs and high level pros aside from the rest of us mortals. What they may lack in power (and maybe even technique) they'll compensate with fighting IQ, muscle memory, speed, timing and toughness. Thais specially, since they can rack hundreds of bouts in a career.
Always respect them, even if you have 20 years of sparring under your belt. If you want to have any chance to beat them, you better be a pro or a champ too.
It must be indescribably fulfilling to interact with high level professional fighters in this way. I'm always impressed by how humble these men are. The best fighters I've seen have been very passionate about their art, surprisingly friendly, and had a great sense of sportsmanship.
This was so awesome. Massive respect to Jesse to even step in the ring!
The man has over 400 professional fights. That is deadly no matter the martial art style.
Yeah, but not many other martial arts than Muay Thai have people starting their professional career when they are children. For the pro thais it's not only art, it's also work and a way to pay for their education in the training camp. Like imagine what it is like to start having to fight when you are nine to pay for school. You can't fight two times a year , you have to fight at least once a month, for 10-15 years. You have to fight injured or when you don't feel like it. It is cruel in a way, but it also breeds an art and a mentality that is not found in any other arts imho. It is not a hobby or a lifestyle, it's a livelihood, and as such is rationalized to it's most economic elements. If a Muay Thai technique looks a certain way, then there's always practical reason for it.
@@MajorRoy This is very true. I'm Thai, I know that all of the Muay Thai legends all came from the very poorest regions of Thailand. Its win or your family staying dirt poor farmers forever.

I love how Poonnasit walked in with his grocery bag and his street clothes and looked totally non threatening. Just like any regular guy walking down the street. You would have no idea that being stuck in the ring with him would be a horror show.
Important lesson to never underestimate anyone. Roid heads need to learn this real quick
OMG I had the exact same thought
And that lovely smile of him though, people there except the ones he knows absolutely have no idea LOL
You are so humble. There should not be dislike button just for your channel.✌️✌️
Karate Nerd, you are HILARIOUS. Love your stuff. Keep it up.
Much appreciated!
Wai Kru is one of the tricks. In addition to the remembrance of teachers
1. It's a meditation practice.
2. to warm the body
3. It is a walk to explore the condition of the field in the past, the field was a soil field.
4. Make him know which school you graduated from gym.
The exact reason I like to spar good fighters is they can control their power and pace. You watch them beat the stuffing out of each other and then spar with a beginner and treat them gently.
100%
I think that's one of the most efficient ways of telling apart a real advanced artist
The good fighters are good masters in practice.
True 👍
I love (and kinda hate) to face good sparring partners. Its humbling and suddenly you need to mind your openings.
But I also love to spar with noobs. Suddenly you get a chance to use those flashy low% techniques and maybe land them.
And in grappling the most fun is to grapple weaker guys or girls. Because they cant "cheat" and use pure power to deny my moves. So I can relaxe. Use just a fraction of my strength, and focus on the Technical aspects. I mean, sure I try that with strong people to, but margins are so small and The flow just becomes different
Your videos are always awesome Sensei Jesse!! Congrats and thx for sharing with us!! OSs 👊👊
Glad you like them!
As someone who practices taekwondo, this video was really cool, I was able to learn a lot about both Muay Thai and Karate from this fight, awesome video.
The dance/ritual done in Muay Thai is called a Wai Khru. Traditionally, it was to show respect to the four directions, the ancestors, the Muay Thai master, and the opponent, and the final move of the dance was emulating a shovel digging a grave to show they were ready to die. The Modern form was created in 1941, with essentially the same emanings.
The voice "owei" is to keep the sparring fun、techniqcial and peaceful.
his chants are the hymns when you are about to meet your MAKER..
Yea that jesse is too serious 🤣
Great man,the truth is all people that go out of their comfort zone by training must have respect for their respective grind!!!
He's so slim yet so powerful. Pretty cool video and I'm glad you didn't let the pride of your karate expertise get in the way of you learning something from him.
Dude, so Happy to see 2 people having a good time while sparring. That is what is all about.
You're so right...!
It's about a familiar or tribal mentality. At least it SHOULD be. You want to BUILD UP fighters/warriors but not to destroy them. That's not the goal of sparring and training. There should be no place for "only ego".
For sparring lessons and training fights a wise guy once said to me:
"There are no winners and no loosers. There are only brothers! It doesn't matter who 'wins'. It's about fighting, doing well and learn".
@@stephanlude5951 ok for Trainer Gae...A Monk from Thailand. Beautiful interviews
His advice to relax when sparring was a pointer to the moment you kicked his head. He was relaxed and you were anxious and stressed and that led to the kick landing. Probably he felt it and instinct took over. He again regained co.poaure when he laughed at the clinch.
Isn't the objective of fighting hurting each other? 🤨
@@BioTheHuman hurting ur opponent/competition not ur teacher or ppl from the same gym
@@acheleon7038 I thought they were doing a serious duel
@@BioTheHuman of course it isn't a serious fight, it isn't sanctioned, there's no referee, no medical professionals around, no corners, they aren't even fighting in the same fighting style, this is obviously just a friendly spar
@@BioTheHuman I spar at my kickboxing gym with guys who are composed and controlled and guys who think they are fighting an MMA PPV. Those guys get a taste of whatever they dish by anyone they dish it to and most of the time they don'tlike it. Sparring should be at 10-15%, it's to practice your techniques and to gain knowledge in reading other pll's moves. It's not to hurt each other.
Love all your videos!!!
Excellent! I ma very intrigued and would love to see more this. ooooosss!
I've watched this so many times!
Haha awesome!! 🙏
Idk why, but I do too
Same here! As a Muay Thai fighter so cool to see. Also the foot jab is a great kick to keep distance and set up punches! Great video!
Who would say that I would see you here, I did not expect it.
Me too I watch this about 10 times
Poonnasit looks like an amazing and humble person, and also a terrific fighter.
True mastery display. The humbleness, respect and skills shown are natural traits found in real masters.
Great video! Thanks Jesse! Oss!
"The human brain is really bad at reacting, but really good at predicting". This line was worth the price of admission.
Yeah, I'm definitely putting that in my notes
@Alfie BRANCH but most of the time it is less than action time.
@Alfie BRANCH Reaction is different from action, that's why when we are hit with a ball in the head we see her coming and we know that but it takes us some time to take the action of dodging it
"I challenged a Muay Thai champion. He accepted. It was at this moment I knew I had screwed up."
I love your videos! Your very humble, I can tell that you like to learn n' improve.. I was once like that when I was younger. My Grandfather taught me Kali when I was younger, I learned Muay Thai n' Shotokan here in the U.S.. I had friends especially in High School that took other Arts and we compared notes.. I incorporated Kali w/ Muay Thai and use Karate as a bonding agent/ glue to help me incorporate other styles n' techniques I learned from other people..
Just discovered your channel. You are brilliant and this is how martial arts should be.loved the video. 😁
Never take advantage of a superior fighter's generosity.
That the Muay Thai veteran with 400 fights would win and was holding back was pretty obvious, and we pretended not to know it for the sake of entertainment.
We also pretended Jesse did really want to "defeat MT for revenge of the honor of Karate", even though we know he is not that kind of guy.
The final moral was also obvious, but it's worth repeating, because in each new generation petty rivalries can be born.
Still, Jesse did a great job, as always.
Muay Thaï are one of the most deadliest martial arts in the world. They're making there body hard and condition. Well I'll say muay thai is more brutal than karate. Just a bit brutal than karate ya know..
@@menandropanoy9844 part of that is the method. Muay Thai is insanity. like actual insanity. how many of their pro fighters haven't been concussed less than a dozen times? whereas other arts would like you to be able to not be brain damaged or broken by the time you can retire.
@@TGPDrunknHick Its very interesting how the thai guys work to make their bodies an actual weapon. Their bones are just like a metal bar.
@@TGPDrunknHick - I wrote this at the top, but I want to paste it here as a reply to your message: Even watching Muay Thai makes me a little nervous, and I wouldn't try it even if I were not already severely handicapped. On one of my many trips to Thailand I got to know a Thai family that owned a massage parlor (a real one, not a sex front.) They took me to their house a few dozen meters from their shop, and introduced me to the owners' crippled son. They told me he was brain damaged from getting kicked in the head doing Muay Thai. He couldn't talk, and he couldn't even stand up without a lot of help. They thought that meeting a white foreigner may make him happy, so that's why they wanted me to meet him. Anyway, ever since I met him and saw him like that, Muay Thai gives me the willies.
400 fight no one has 400 fight
