I listened to your feedback, PRIME Andrew Tate is a legit kickboxer
W DJ fr man he took our feedback even though he is the GOAT....Tate definitely retired early man he could have gone further..
proving once again why you are the GOAT
Lol I blame Michael
Why you gotta throw me under the bus like that 😂
@@ChrisOld-of1hd my bad 😂
I watch these breakdowns because he breaks down everything from the hair to the techniques lol a true expert
I just know the pain 😭
expert in treeology as well
@MightyGamingX can you grow hair atleast? I think we need to see dj with hair at one point even if it's when you're young
Lmaooo bro said the hair 🤣
@@Mighty15x does the pain last or eventually subside?
This was so dope when he busted out the pen and starting diagnosing striking zone entry. Please more of these!
Less Tate tho yuck
@@Wopedomer stay mad brokie
@@Wopedomer Maybe if you did something with your life, he'd be talking about you.
Stay jealous
@@DefeatLust stay glazing a sex tafficker abuser
@@DefeatLustdude, you weirdos dont know what people do for a living. Hop off Tates taint. Lol
How you stopped everything in middle of the video, not even editing something out or stopping recording.. Just straight drop everything for your daughter. As a fellow father, that small little thing you did made me smile so much
I'm 43 with no kids and I still appreciated this shit out of it.
fuck me , here at 19 and afraid of that happening to me , any advice?@@rogerbussiii
@@rogerbussiiiyou're a good man, sir.
kids around the world no matter who their parents are should always be protected. I strongly believe that kids can live a different life them their parents
If there's any fighter that I trust with an accurate breakdown, it's Mighty Mouse. This man is the greatest fighter of all time.
most skilled but not the greatest +
he would be famous as fuck if his weight class was higher
True
@@PogoPogoHD him being the most skilled does make a valid point at being the best, again I know it's debatable of corse
@@PogoPogoHDhe just wasn’t marketable at the time, if he was in his prime now In the ufc he would be one of the most marketable of all of them
I could be wrong but I believe that when Andrew says BJJ doesn't work he is talking about street situations. His main point is that if you grapple somebody to the ground, you are pretty well caught up with that person. If his buddy's jump you while you are submitting the guy, you will get your face stomped.
And it follows the proper combat fundamentals rule of "nothing works until it does" so you can say NOTHING at all works ever and then make it work once and then say it works then and it doesn't count as hypocrisy because that's life. Life isn't about the theoretical but about the applicable. And not the theoretically applicable either but about the personal real world applicable.
Yea and also he's over exaggerating like he does a lot of time.
I'm sure he knows how important BJJ is in MMA for example.
If the other guy knows bjj but not how dangerous it can be youll wish you knew it too so you had the ability to just stand up.
In one-on-one situations though, BJJ is pretty much king, as far as can be seen from a variety of MMA fights. In group fights, going to the ground is a bad idea, but even then, in group fights it's best to just run - I mean there is a group of people against you, unless you're armed to the teeth, you likely aren't going to win that one.
@@PauIdenino and I'm sure he knows about 100% of normal life is zero percent MMA. By that logic everyone would say bjj is dumb and you should only be packing heat instead.
Demetrious fight IQ is the best in the sport...Love how he breaks down the attack patterns and distancing
Cannot express how cool it is that you read and actually put in effort to make videos that apply to the comments this keeps me hooked to the channel and wanting to come back to learn more because you always keep it relevant to what people are trying to understand. Great work as usual🐐
Love the breakdown mighty
He was a legit kickboxer. Be wasn't no Badr Hari or Holtzken but still good kickboxer overall
He got offered to fight badr hari😭
@@valentinog7644lmaoooo
@@valentinog7644 and ducked.
@@valentinog7644and there a reason he didn’t take it 😭
@@gibjohnson5720he said he would have just kicked him in he nuts if they fought
I'll never call Tate a fraud at fighting. Dude was a 4x world champ. But his style is so fuckin awkward that I'm just amazed his career went as well as it did.
i said the same
dude is a heavy hitter
He's like a Sean Strickland of kick boxing. Only the fundamentals which is really all you need and him and Tate perfected it
tbh a lot of fighters have awkward styles, alex periera is constantly criticized for his hands down style but it works for him
That's because he fought tons of people without fighting experience..... that's why everyone questions how he made it with that stance lmao.
Its annoying when people point out that Tate only fights shorter guys. Hey hes a pretty tall guy, thats something that makes him a bit special, why dont you guys criticize Ngannou for only fighting smaller guys? Its not like they pick the fights!
hes brother is also a kick boxer, because of injury he had to retire early, i would still love you to break down one of his fights as theyre styles are very diffrent, i think it would make for an interesting video
Both of them are weird incel losers who should be in jail, if i was you kid i would find a new role model whos not a criminal. They are not good at anything in life, thats why they turned to human trafficking and criminal activities
Tristian isn’t nearly as good as Andrew no point in breaking down his fight
@@PoopythePlumbertristan was european champion
@@rasmusstelzner365doesn’t mean anything he’s not that good

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Demetrious! Thank you for all your amazing content truly enjoy your observations!
Ditto and ur welcome just trying to give the best content on this platform
You definitely upped your content game your fans noticed! Keep going harder man. We want to see you on the front page of youtube more! @@Mighty15x
You should react to tate sparring olympic fighters recently. His head movement was crazy and i think it would be a cool video for everyone
Yeah I remember dj saying against a taller opponent his style would fall apart but he was sparring that large Olympic fighter and was doing the exact same style. Sure it’s a spar but he pulled it off completely fine. Tates better than he gets credit for.
it was great granted it was edited to show the punches tate landed
Not the same style at all . a lot more head movement@@pollen1253
That guy’s just a random fighter not an Olympic boxer y’all believe anything these Tate fanboys say
@@czy3622 yeah honestly. There's no way those were Olympic boxers.
Mighty Mouse would be one hell of a coach, he breaks everything down so well
From what I've seen of tate his greatest asset was his physique in his weightclass.
His biggest flaw(s) would be #1 a lack of head movement and #2 he doesn't seem to have that killer instinct to finish guys off that all the greats have, he's almost a little too calm and cerebral.
That's probably correct.
As a master chess player, it would make sense.
@@BWater-yq3jxAndrew master chess player???😂
@@aspect359 Tate fans always get on their knees for him
@@aspect359hes probably intermediate-advanced at the minimum hes probably 1800
11:37 that left hook was atrocious my guy wtf 🤣🤣
Its crazy how well he did with such exploitable defensive faults. I think a lot of it is because even though he leaves continent sized openings, that WE can see, even if he doesn't get perfect contact with his strikes, he still does enough to not let his opponent be freed up to exploit them
People say pros have faults all the time. At the end of the day it isn't about theory. It's bout application.
@@watchmejumpstart69Thats called a parry you casual
@@watchmejumpstart69 Do you train yourself? If not, then thats a casual take, and IF you do train, find a better gym mate 🤣
@@Muaykhao187lol not really...he's correct that a Perry is subtle....it's just a tiny motion of the hand...just enough to deflect the shot with the tiniest of movement. Flailing your hands is a very bad Perry from a techniques perspective. It can lead you suspseftible to getting hit if you extend your hands and arms too far away from your facem
I'll tell ya one thing for sure. You guys remember Luke Perry? He was both subtle and stood out like a rainbow tutu at a klan rally. Exactly...
People also forget the context that this was 10 years ago. The skill cap in fighting has grown exponentially since that time and I’m sure there are unranked fighters today that would be contenders back then
Especially in cruiserweight and light heavyweight which were never flagship divisions in kickboxing like lightweight and Heavyweight.
Has it? 😂
I doubt that
@@RBC0405It likely has. Glory as an argue has grown, thus the competition has as well. It’s a very clear proportional relationship.
@@horty1788I doubt you watch combat sports.
I love your work in these breakdowns because even though I know a small bit I still don’t understand everything. I rewatch your fights constantly, much love from South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️🔥
DJ, would be cool to see you giving us some video of you applying these concepts in a partner or a bag, I too struggle with this, everytime I attack someone I don't know what I should do next, like... where should I angle, how should I angle, how to start the offensive, what are the best techniques to try against someone longer, things like that.
I second this
I third this
DJ made one Andrew Tate breakdown, and from the comments, it seems like DJ is doomed to do a breakdown of every single fight of Andrew Tate's career, haha. "Tate only had 7 hours of sleep before this fight, do a breakdown". "This guy is slightly taller than Andrew Tate, do a breakdown". "This is Tate doing a 1 min sparring sess, do a breakdown." There are plenty of fights that are more interesting and technical than Andrew Tate, and we will learn a lot more from those breakdowns.
Hater
What does that make you? One of Tate's girlfriends? 😂
They’re definitely better technical fights out there to breakdown but there isn’t many with the following this man has.
Maybe we like to watch Tate because everyone knows him?
Stop beating around the bush. You would prefer he say nothing about Tate. Just say that. 😂
Shoutout DJ for reading the comments and giving the people what they wanted
From the tate fights I've seen it doesn't seem as if he's big on head movement. I think elite level kickboxers would pick him apart easily since he's a stationary target most of the fight except when he resets after an engagement and very little in terms of fakes/feints. Great video and breakdown.
Good points
Agreed
His game has evolved since then, his head movement immaculate
His head movement is one of his biggest strengths what are you talking about lmfao
@@billwoods7578His head movement perfected towards the latter of his career, this is young Tate right here
Demetrious is trully admirable, what a fair dude.
Good thing you commented on the hair. I know I would have lost sleep thinking about that otherwise
"world champion"
You said you wonder if his brother was also a kick-boxer, indeed he was. He was a European champion
Didn't know that they were both champions that's cool.
This is why DJ is the goat, absolute master class breakdown 🐐
Andrew said he saw a few Kickboxers with aggressive style ended up with damaged brain at the age of 30'ish. That's why he prefer long range fighting style where most of the hit landed on the face and chin than the side of his head because to close & might result of brain damage in the long run.
Hits to the chin are worse than side of the head. There’s a reason chin shots knock out more people that side of the head punches
@@antonyslaughter I'm talking about the hit that has minimal impact to the brain, to avoid brain damage in the long run.
That's Andrews's problem. I am aggressive and I take very little damage, sometimes no damage. He's not responsible with his defense so of course he blocks shots with his head. God gave you shoulders and forearms to intercept incoming strikes, if you walk forward and block/slip eventually your adversary won't have the footing to put power on his hands.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD everyone are talented with different skill set. Coach can only train you to certain point. ISKA is not the top league, but he won twice. His style are working for him.
Also you can't be so sure. Are you Pro ? ... are you on high level competition ? ... or so far only in sparring you get little damage. In sparring, no one actually want to kill you.
The other thing ... Our skull are very strong, in combat, hit on the side of your head isn't that damaging than get fooked in the chin. But in the long run, your chance to become disabled retard are getting higher every time your side or rear got hit. The muscle that binding your brain parts are ripped.
This is not conspiracy theory. Doctor have been warning people about combat sport that allow hit in the head.
@@bendegorro754 yes and a hit to the chin does more brain damage. The reason a hit to the chin causes a knock out is it torques the brain stem and causes the brain to bounce around in your skull. A hit to the temple and a chin shot cause similar damage to your thinker
I think a big reason why he didnt do K1 was because 1.) He has had a detached Retina a lot and 2.) He was always was focused on money, he liked fighting but not enough to where he wanted to go that far and 3.) He just couldnt compete with some of them and I think he also couldn't' get enough recognition to fight in K1
Lot of reasons none of them the biggest one..
1. He wasn’t near good enough
Bro in that vid where he spars a Olympic boxer his hands, head movement and foot work is so slick
Dj can you come out with a course ? The way you break these fights down is amazing. Would love more tips on your fighting style and the way to defend yourself.
Seriously I only recently found this channel and while everyone knows DJ is a phenomenal fighter I have been really impressed how great he is at communicating. I think he’s gotta be a great instructor. I’d love to get an instructional, class, or seminar from him.
cracks me up when you say "oiiii" after a big hit🤣
A break down of usman nurmagomedov would be awesome 😮 👇
Absolutely
Indeed
Can't wait for him to join the ufc
Shoutout to DJ for realizing the mistake and uploading the correction video right away. Glad I could use this analysis too. I notice I need to circle out of exchanges more often and it’s real apparent when I spar my coach that I need to work on closing the distance in the void on more experienced fighters. Always learning something watching these breakdowns.
😂😂
Facts
Bro is a GENIUS. Best RUclipsr and the flyweight goat 💨
Fight IQ through the roof DJ. Love these breakdowns.
I tell my son and aspiring MMA Fighter to watch Mighty Mouse for Humility, Fight IQ and Techniques. Thanks for doing this Mighty!
Always learn from your break downs. Wish you would release an MMA or Striking instructional (Beginner to Intermediate)
A not just the standing tall, a lot tall kickboxers do that, it’s the low hands, chin in the air and relying on swaying back without guarding, swaying back is supposed with a unguarded chin is supposed to be last resort not a constant habit because it’s going to get you KTFO when facing someone that has power in them hands.
You should watch him vs Sahak Parpayan if I’m right, Alex was a beast back in the day
Sahak Parparyan not alex
@@lamertofar8gaming443 thanks for the correction, mb for that mistake
Man the way you explain is perfect. Especially when you show the angles, and broke down the cadence thing. Stuff I dont think much about. Will for sure pay more attention to this stuff.
i think tate is a better figher now than before. obviously he's not in fighting shape anymore, but his mind, technique, and understanding of the sport has matured a lot. if u watched his recent sparring videos, he used much more head movements and feints compared to this video and his defence was much better in his recent sparring video. he also threw a lot more jabs and setting up his shots a lot more
Fax the new videos are hard
People usually look better when they’re not in a fight
16oz gloves are slower, he also does boxing sparring now which allows more head movement and of course most people perform worse under the lights. It's hard to let loose and take risks when another man is tryna take your head of frfr
But he’s sparring now not fighting. It’s easier to look better in sparring because you’re not going all out.
@@ohv8550 and some people look better fighting than in sparring
Andrew said recently in his podcasts that he has bad eyesight. He said that's why his hands are low when fighting
What I've noticed from the "Tree analogy" in my experience is that a lot of times staying very tall absorbs a lot of the punches you take, as they do not have that much mass to land on, that being said it is at the expense of being off balance if the attack continues. The other side of the coin is those fighters who just bend over in a "C" shape and take every jab so hard you hand hurts and you feel bad for hitting them, haha.
I was actually thinking this. I’m not a trained fighter but a tree sways with the wind in order to not break while the rigid trees are the ones that break.
then you have to think about why a punch with gloves fucks you up so bad, and its because of the shock your brain is taking from the G forces of your skull being moved. less weight, decreasing the mass you absorb, is not going to keep your skull from whiplashing your brain, and then you're going to be off balanced, maybe fall down, and get rocked some more. there's many variables and leaning straight back like that has more cons than pros.
Mass doesn't change, but your center of mass does.
Hey DJ I appreciate you seeing the comments and reacting to one of Tate's prime fights, not when he took a short notice one. Much better!
Ur welcome and thanks for leaving a comment 😊🙏🏾
tate is a counter puncher,is it possible that maybe he is backing up straight because he is trying to lure the opponent in a counter? i saw some of his fights and it seems to me that ,that is his signature move.
It's interesting to hear a breakdown of a fight from a veterans perspective, subbed you Mighty Mouse I didn't even know you did content creating that's awesome!
Happy thanksgiving, brother. You’re an absolute legend. I wish you and your family the best.
I love hearing "OOIII" everytime anyone does anything in a fight
The GOAt out here giving the people what they asked for! Btw his upright style is why they called him Cobra Tate.
Mighty mouse everything you do is good. From your fighting.. now your videos are great keep it up man 🐐👊💪
i notice that in a lot of the exchanges andrew is caught by a straight on the way out of his opponents range but that straight sometimes barely nicks him and he could use that to pull counter or atleast anticipate the straight duck down and fire off a right hand(actually slip because ducking is hard for a tall guy, cant relate)
Happy Thanksgiving brotha! I appreciate you and your team for actually reading the comments
Like I said in the previous video that people try to defend him he wasn’t in his prime, which again I like Tate but he’s not close to the high tier level, no jabs, not enough leg kicks, body kicks etc no feints either he’s good just not to what people made him seem. Great breakdown DJ
Leg kicks in kickboxing?
@@michaelh878 yea?
@@michaelh878no shit…?
he has really flexable hips, how easy he can throw that high side kick is quite beautiful
Even at the fight VS Sahak Parparyan, where Andrew Tate did a lot more, including feints
and breaking rhythm. He was faster and more aggressive. But he was only able to maintain
that for 6 minutes. His opponent was able to force the game and keep it up for 13 minutes.
That's the difference. Jessica Andrade had better combat conditioning than prime Andrew Tate.
Alternative example: Peter "The Hurricane" Smit. Despite his tragic fate, that fighter really knew
what is combat conditioning done right. A true champion. RIP. Legend.
After you made the tree analysis around 8:40 mentioning tate was in his range, his opponent went straight for the head punch but tate clenched 😭
great call from you
If we're going by hairline stating Prime that means DJ passed his Prime and is still champ
Ha! I literally said, "Throw some feints! Hip feints, shoulder feints, something...!" Then Mighty said, "I'm not seeing any feints!" About 30 seconds after I said it.. I feel kinda proud! LOL
Just wanted to say thank you for all the content. You have no idea how amazing they are
I remember when Tate first gained notoriety, and I saw that he claimed to be a world kickboxing champion.
I thought Oh this is gonna be like some Van Damme kinda bs, so I googled some of his fights and after watching for awhile...
'Ok, fair enough.' 🙃
The hairline breakdown 😂
Dj you're one of the GOATS. Much love from New Zealand. Proud of you bro. I think you making a YT channel was a smart next career move
His unmatched perspicacity coupled with sheer indefatigability made him a feared opponent in this realm of human endeavour 😊
How long did u sleep with the dictionary?
@@attilapuskas7090you’re dumb bro 😂, he’s quoting a Tate quote
come up for air lmao
The way you break down fights reminds me of how Hikaru breaks down chess moves.
I can't lie, one thing Tate always does well is throw a great cross, and at times:head movement.(In terms of baiting people.) It is definitely an essential move to his style, and understandable why. His style is a bit unorthodox, and probably not the best for everyone at high level: but he knows what he is doing. Not the greatest kickboxer, but I don't think he is a bad by any means. Glory/K1 level? Maybe not. But still leagues above most people.
I’m glad to see more people getting a balanced take on how good he actually is and isn’t.
At the time of his prime, Glory was not even a thing yet. He fought in Enfusion and IKSA where a lot of legit kickboxers also fought
@@satoristeve I agree with you. He is so polarizing that a lot of people can't find a middle ground for his skills. He does stuff I probably wouldn't do, but he makes it work for him. I'd just end up getting knocked out. 😂
glory was 100% from 2013 the highest level with saki spong semmy schilt young RICO@@samme79
It’s not about being better than “most people” you judge fighters compared to other fighters not random people
I feel like prime Tate was when he knocked out that German guy in the red and yellow shorts on that reality show. It was like TUF but for kickboxers. That guy was pretty good too and Tate knocked him out cold
I am debuting in mma in January. These breakdowns have given me an idea of how to beat people at my gym and most likely my opponent.
Guess you'll find out
How can we watch it?
Thats obvious.@@moragslothe6449
@@rajyavardhansingh4491 Its amateur. Probably wont be on TV
@pa_2600 Thank you!
380K subs 291K views.... the mouse is killing it! Well deserved.
This was a great breakdown. There are plenty of othernprime tate fights that are on youtube that you could break down as well as a ko highlight reel, so you have plenty of material if this video does well tha ks for the knowledge🙏
He was defiantly looking to counter and trade in the pocket but his opponent just wasn’t there after a while u have to create offense opposed to looking for reads
Every time I see a blue pencil trail thing I think "Yes he's gonna break it down in detail give me your goat insight man let's go"
8:00 DJ explaining the principles of torque, lever arms and moment of inertia without even knowing 😂😂great shit
Respect for doing another reaction on his prime
Thanks for the breakdown and knowledge MM! Happy thanksgiving.
“His kickboxing is very very high level”
No feints, only big shots 😀
Tristan is also a kick boxer he did not get as high level as Andrew but he was still the European kickboxing champion and he has a completely different fighting style then Andrew which might be interesting to look at.
15:34
Thank you for keeping that in. It really Made me smile ❤.
Wholesome.
No apology necessary.
I'm glad you reviewed this fight as well. Taking his skills from the last fight was like watching Paul vs Mayweather when he was retired and out of him prime then saying he wasn't that good.
He still isn't that good.
There are fights where Tate throws feints and knocks out oppoonents cold. Many fights of him doing this out there
Against tomato cans. He has 70-80 wins and I don't think you can even name 5 elite guys beaten by Tate. And he claims that he is 4 time world champion? 😂
@@ayukum7497 Would YOU get into a ring with these "tomato cans" you speak of? How disrespectful
@@bballstrategy i never fake claimed I am a 4 time world champion. This is just stupid argument.
Tate is good enough to beat tomato cans but he is no world champion. And saying a guy like tate is a world champion is actually disrespectful to real world champions.
Andrew fought some Asian guy that was taller than him in K1. It’s on RUclips . That was a good fight. You should break that down
You should break down tates spar with an Olympian boxer.

hey mouse im that sound engineer idiot from 2 months ago that complained about your gain. its PREEEEM now just like your content. ya gonna have a really hard time upping your quality cause i dont see a damn thing thats wrong with your videos now. criminally underrated channel. cant wait to see more
Continuing the tree analogies: have you ever noticed how the trees that blow down are always the ones in the shelter of the forest, but that solitary tree in the middle of a field never blows down. Always sheltered, never prepared.
As a kickboxer im telling bro he is a beast in kickboxing like fr he's is really legit like if your he's fan or not he's legit you gotta admit it
Beast? He never fought at glory or K1, 99% of his opponents were no name cans
I believe he’s a legit pro. But man I didn’t like Tate overplaying his accolades.
@@ayfficiallhe fought in one of the top 4 organisations and didn't act cringe like adesanya and shit so didn't really grow a fanbase otherwise he would have got offers. He still fought decent people and very tough people. You don't get into the top 4 organisations if you aint got it.
@@ayfficiallapparently he also got a serious eye injury around the age that would be his prime and decided to value his health.
@@ayfficiallFrom what I can tell, Glory at least wasnt around during his time. Maybe even K1, but that one is a bit murky and i could be remembering it wrong. Definitely different levels nowadays though.
I think your breakdowns are hands down the best and my favorite! So detailed!
Props for not just doing his last fight like every other expert does.
hey lizz how's it going
What would you know about that?
@@ItsameAlex omg!!!! I miss your face!!!! Hiiiii hunny! Hope you are doing well! ❤️❤️
Oh hey liz
After prison he actually had hair he didn't lose his hair he just shaves it. Idk why it blew my mind lol
Watch his fight on the Glory kickboxing channel vs Sahak Parparyan.
you should breakdown some of his sparring matches with Olympic & pro boxers. Some are quick paced & intense I would love to see your breakdown of it
Don't you have a "hustlers class" that you're late for? 😂
@moragslothe6449 don’t u have literally anything better to do with ur life than sit in comments and spread hate? “You do not matter”
@@moragslothe6449 what does that have to do with dj reviewing his fights?
what he is describing ie "he stays right there, he stands up tall" is literally the reason his nickname was cobra.
Is Tate a legit kickboxer yes, but is he a good kickboxer NO..., there are levels in any game so there are obviously levels in kickboxing..., the problem is that Tate present himself deliberately former kickboxer of the world(part of his hustleing to get more eyeballs) and that is simply not true..., beeing a iska champ and being a champ in glory, one championship or have title in old k1 is whole another thing..., being a champ in iska and call yourself a champ of the world is like that Paddy Pimblet call him self a champ for beeing a champ in the Cage Warriors..., it's not the same thing if he would be the champ in the UFC..., like I said there are levels and Tate is/was only beeing a champ in the lower level of competition...
Mate you're a casual and don't know kickboxing orgs. At the time of his prime, Glory was not even a thing. Most people in EU fought in recognizable orgs like ISKA and Enfusion. K1 was at the time, predominantly a Japanese org. Andrew mostly fought in England and Europe. Even Alex Pereira did not fight in K1. Does that mean he's a scrub? No. Tate being an ISKA and Enfusion champ means he's legit. Even Ernesto Hoost used to be an ISKA champ. Sure Tate isn't the highest level but to say he isn't a good kickboxer when all you know is probably UFC (not even the entire MMA) is just crazy and dumb
You guys are mostly just UFC fans that regurgitate the same narrative in reddit or wherever. You probably can't even name 5 kickboxers unless they are mainstream like Rodtang or Superlek. Granted I'm not a hardcore too in KB, I don't pride myself by being disingenuous and acting like I know the sport
@@samme79 Only guy who is casual here is you or just another tate's ! rider..., it's simple..., the guy is NOT a elite kickboxer period.
@@samme79Lol, you beeing serious about comparing Ernesto to this tate claun lolololol, the Ernesto is like Jon Jones to some prelim fighter in UFC and not because he also have a lame iska belt, it's because he win the K1 tournamet multiple times which happens to be in that days like ufc today, so just stop...., also Glory was founded 2012 and Tate was still fighting, not to mention his most valid point that prove he is not a elite fighter is nothing more than his own fighting resume..., you want to say he is elite..., then your guy must have resume like Peirera, Adesanya, Doumbe, Sergei Maslobolyev you just simply don't know what you talking about#casual
Tall, Which is why Mighty Mouse & Mike Tyson are so damn great as fighters. They Fought people taller and yet clapped them.
Mouse, I respect the hell out of you and for good reason, but don't mix him in with fighters like you. His kickboxing might be "good", but not good enough to allow him to talk as much shit as he does to HALF the fighters in the UFC 😂
Love the videos man, just don't want to lose another great person to Tates bullshit 🤣
Tate always respected the ufo, he is not a ground fighter
@@ThéoBulsing Autocorrect wasn't nice to you today 😅
And true, he's NOT a grand fighter. I don't even see how his "prime" is even something to gloat about. Watch ANY semi pro fighter at that time, same sloppy body movement
drawing a connection from Tate to White Goodman made my night
Global gym forever
DJ showing the power of the difference having quality coaches can make
Wouldn’t make it in the top organisations. The beasts in K1 etc back then would kill him
Cejudo's breakdown: " This guy( Tate ) had what we called a padded record. He basically fought tomatoes cans"
Demetrious I am with you in most takes but not this one he was in prime at 33 and doesn’t do anything much different against a can 19 year old boy. These videos should have been also made when he was in the algorithm. Let’s be honest he isn’t good his average at best.
I’d have to disagree with you. He’s not the best in the world by any means, but he’s a pro, the only thing that makes my argument weak is that Tate claims to have world titles which he didn’t get in prestigious leagues, while he is a professional, and not an amateur. He’s just not one of the elite fighters in the world.
But he’s a good kickboxer for what he’s had to overcome
@@youngeeneden1594 average he fought people who didn’t fight in any higher level than regional meaning amateurs.
@@JoseMorales-jt6hcseems like he agreed with you, all those words just to say he isn’t an amateur but also isn’t elite, sounds like average to me
It reminds me of when I used to lift weights, I was strong, but lots of other dudes in my gym were stronger. One day I signed up for a weightlifting competition, and I won, not because I was super strong, but because the dudes stronger than me didn't compete.
...my point is, Andrew is average, but the scene back then wasn't big yet, so there weren't a lot of competitors. He definitely put in work, but he wouldn't stand a chance against modern fighters.
enfusion was probably the best org to fight in under 2010-2014 those years, K1 went bankrupt and Glory just started in 2012
