- When the best of Muay Thai meet the best of MMA and put their YOKKAO sparring gear only fireworks are inevitable! The YOKKAO Fight Team go toe to toe with American Top Teams best MMA athletes in a clash of worlds and striking traditions. Saenchai steps up and takes the matts with another big personality in Bellators Danny Sabatello. These two didn’t waste any time getting to know one another as they exchanged shots back and forth. Finally finding themselves in the clinch, the GOAT went to sent Danny flying but his extensive MMA training kicked in resulting in the two flying across the mats in a hilarious fashion. Saenchai goes on to spar with his now teammate in Jonny Eblen as the two have a wholesome sparring session with each trying to outdo the other. Chalawan displayed his fluid combinations and rock solid footwork, giving his opponents a hard time to adjust to the change in style that they’ve grown accustomed to in MMA. Similarly, Duangdawnoi pushed the pace with a much bigger sparring partner but used her strength in her savage teeps and aggressive defence. All in all this was an incredible experience for all involved. YOKKAO & American Top Team combining forces and ready to show the MMA world what this partnership can really do! What was your favourite moment during these sparring sessions? Let us know in the comments below!

#muaythai #fights #sparring
I understand Kuziutina is an Olympic Judoka, but her striking is freaking embarrassing. And the fact, at the slightest discomfort, she would start grappling with a much smaller girl, instead of trying to improve her kickboxing and gain something from this, was disgraceful.
Natalia Kuziutina's thoughts were:
"-I have weak Muay Thai, so I'm going to be knocking people over in a Muay Thai seminar, because my ego is fragile and I don't want to show how limited I am."
Pathetic and disrespectful
the bit where, after the leg catch take down, she then stood over her and drew her punch back as if she was going to follow through... no words for how disrespectful that is. She also used the body lock to squeeze the lower back while pushing forward with her upper body, which is pretty dangerous which is why it's actually not allowed in muay thai.
Yes that was completely cringe and douche. That's like me doing a double leg on Manny Pacquiao and feining a cheap knockout punch and acting like I easily beat him.
i feel like these guys are not understanding the point of sparring these Yokkao athletes. they should be trying things to learn new techniques and patterns from people that don't come from their martial art, instead most of them are trying to win "points". I think that's wasted talent and time.
It’s not,yokkao athletes are people who CAN spar,they use effective striking techniques and obviously they don’t go for the KO,bro It’s literally a spar,not a match
This video really highlights Saenchai and his ridiculous reaction speed...top level fighters who are larger, getting frustrated not being able to counter
Top level is still under god level brother😁🙏🏽
His reaction time is just insane, the ease with which he catches kicks...
That guy who tackled Sanchai should’ve known better.
100 what an idiot. It's MT not MMA training. He was throwing stiff one twos also
saenchai not offended neither should we
@@bubsenseijebe2993 bro its on unmatted ground, and just because saenchai didnt show it doesnt mean he wasnt hurt by it.
To me it didnt seem like he accepted the guys "apology" he just walked away, so no he did not like it at all.
Using techniques that could very easily hurt someone thats not prepared for them (because they were not agreed upon beforehand) is extremely irresponsible and shows poor judgement.
Muay Thai Seminar.
Why is there wrestling here? :D
If you want to wrestle without breaking Muay Thai rules, try clinch.
If you feel insecure with a master in sparr, don't show off, just walk away. You're here to get the most out of your sparring experience. To learn from the masters. It's a unique, great experience that many people envy.
Love you, Yokkao.
their all masters though, everyone shown sparring is a pro fighter in some kind of martial arts, I am not defending the takedowns but it could be out of muscle memory possibly
@@Tokio_Tsu No its not out of muscle memory. Pro fighters know how to isolate their techniques for training.
No take downs without mats...common courtesy. These guys are on tour for gods sake. No need to risk injury.
The Americans seemed to be very outmatched. Didn't look like they took it very well either.
The YOKKAO team were very concise in their movements.
Each with meaning and purpose with no flamboyancy like the Americans.
This was clearly a treat to see. The mental and physical focus of the YOKKAO team is exceptional. Excellent!
Some of this is honestly hard to watch. I get that maybe these Americans have not trained in Thailand so maybe they don't know Thai sparring etiquette, but they are all going way too hard. @ 7:40 the blonde guy starts sparring, instantly goes for the takedown, then loads up a punch ready to hit her while she's on the ground..... Common bro show some respect
That's Natalia Kuziutina. I don't understand why she was sparring like that. She treated it like MMA sparring. She's like a smaller female Ivan Drago.
Yeah a lot of ego with that blonde woman, especially knowing she's an Olympic judoka. It's like, congratulations, you proved you can out grapple a Thai fighter from a weight class below you who's not trying to grapple.
I could be wrong, but my sense is that many women often spar harder than they should.
@@alanh7247 You are not wrong
@@alanh7247 Women tend to get flustered more when getting hit and act on their emotions.
glad everyone else sees the same thing... kinda upsetting sometimes, jus fuel for the fire...
Yokkao Team went to easy on these MMA guys attempting to grapple. :). I train MT at a predominantly MMA gym and the MMA guys always go for the shoot once they start getting uncomfortable on the feet even though it's during the MT class. Usually turning up the kick power to near full and adding knees prevents them from doing it again. :)
Correct they do. However, it is their MO, if getting beaten in one area move to the other....
I also feel if MT fighters actually learned a bit of takedown defense Your egos wouldn’t show so much either, everyone talking about the takedowns literally all of the yakkao team was throwing heat at the Americans and almost all the Americans were being respectful
The Thai fighters took advantage of that Saenchai and Duangdawnoi both especially Duang yet all of ATT were respectful if you can blast kicks as hard as you want then you should be able to keep yourself on your feet if you want to do so🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️Etiquette is a two way street
@@BooGaLouBae Thai fighters were going at 50% at best so of course you can get taken down if your kicks are not respected.On top of that these were Thai Boxers, not MMA's thus making it even less challenging for them. The problem is that MMA fighters need to follow the trend the elite striking that the most of the top fighters are now achieving, especially those that have been training in Thailand and I'm sure the gym invited Team Yokkao there for that specific reason. What a waste of time if all they were going to do is fall back on grappling when they should be upping their striking game.
If I'm sparring a MMA fighter during a kickboxing specific class and they try to take me down I simply starting marking knees and kicking at 80% until they are dissuaded and get the message.
@@maxrey4055 Seminars are just glorified meet and greets, been to one and the while I learned stuff it didn't exactly "up" my striking game. Sparring is where it's at and most pro mma fighters trying to improve their striking should just straight up go to Thailand and stay there for a few months. Also funny how you make it sound like the MMA guys were straight up putting these thai fighters in chokeholds. The dudes simply did takedowns as a joke can't say the same for that girl judoka tho.
@@annuchi1947 I’ve been to three different seminars. Liam Harrison x 2 and Damion Alamos and by no means with these just meet and greets. Everyone who attended was there to learn and I would assume that since you didn’t get anything out of it, you’re probably not strictly Muay Thai. And by the way, Judaka girl had a game face on.
"Don't kill me" ... proceeds to light up her opponent with stiff teep kicks 😂
ikr??' She always does this. And you can see in her face that she entered the game on state.
She's brilliant and I like it that she is tough. You guys are all making Gen Z comments. Basically your all pansies
@@ravifonseca8She’s probably just taking some pressure off herself in case she doesn’t perform, or lowering her guard. It doesn’t mean she’s about to be soft, they all are sparring relatively hard here.
She saw the huge egos in the room from Saenchai and other fellow (sorry) sparring with them and they went for MMA takedowns in a bloody Muay Thai seminar against nak muays. Kayla Harrison's judo throw honestly has the potential to KO her. Can't blame her for saying that, but Kayla is a humble champion and smart also, so just stuck to striking like you're supposed to for basic respect and intelligence without ego.
@@imeaniguess.6963 I don't know. But just like I Said, she ALWAYS does this, whether the spar you see in this video, whether in another video with lesser experienced practitioners and people who go mostly technical.
And not everyone went as hard as her. Case in particular, saenchai as usual, who manages always to escalate accordingly to the flow and also de-escalate.
The judoka was a joke lmao what's the point of sparring with the Yokkao team if you're just going in to tie up and take them down? Literally no attempt to even try to strike with Duang. The other dudes did takedowns for fun but obviously focused on their striking at least.
That's Kayla Harris, she's known to have an ego.
Spar Muay Thai or spar MMA.
@@justinmaxwell5866That’s Natalia Kuziutina. Kayla was the one before her who was really light….
It was a long time coming for Duang 👍🏻👍🏻
Idk why anyones doing takedowns on them , can they at least prevent takedowns on the goat 😅
Old man Saenchai going all those rds messing around and didn't even start gassing out.He's still good!
Having lived in Thailand, I would never trade places with ANY of their MT fighters - most come from incredible poverty in the provinces and very few ever earn a fraction of the millions of baht that changes hands ringside (it's illegal but no-one seems to care). That said, their discipline and pain tolerance are superhuman - pound for pound, the Thais are outstanding,
Very disappointing and disrespectful display from ATT
?
@@unknownentity8256 what part don’t you understand?
Who is ATT?
@@Jack-ok1vw What was disrespectful?
@@xakushonx8798 American Top Team
I feel the only takedown that was necessary to the fullest was the 1st guy after getting that Saenchai signature🤣 even that playing field, baby! Haha. I love Saenchai
Losing the stand up so they do a take down pfft 👎🏼
This is awesome to watch. I started Muay Thai a couple weeks ago and I sparred hard as a beginner which wasn’t proper sparring etiquette. I’m learning now that sparring is more about practicing technique. lm loving this channel!
10:00 Saenchai shouted "body" and then tried to take his head off; that's so dirty 😂
That's mind game
Kayla threw that very hard left at Duang right at the start. After that, Duang totally outclassed Kayla…
Kayla take too much steroids
''Don't kill meee'' means = I'm gonna give it to you
that shot hair girl pissing me off
I agree with these opinions. But sorry, the name "TOP Team" seams not very self reflected. Size don`t matters. There are a kind of fitness boxing class with MMA attitude.
Nice push kick for the one in pink. Add a question mark kick to her arsenal then you have some problems for people
muay thai is best
seanchai is best
I was wondering wtf was going on with the takedowns when I thought it was MT exhib
my thoughts exactly
There’s always that one person that does too much during sparring and I don’t even have to say who it was without yall knowing who I’m talking about
Borys super sparing z Saenchai 💪💪
comments are disturbing. remind me to just drive past American Top Team when trying to find a gym to train at?
Blondie was such a good Humoured and chilled sparring partner. That is how we all should sparr and just have fun. Very nice! Not sad to behold at all. Go Girls!
yeah and the judoka guy was so annoying
Why were men sparring with women? @@santiagooarg6990
Doing take downs to try and show off. Good for them that the are going easy on the mma fighter's
The last fighter in the video is Borys Mańkowski, a professional fighter fighting in the KSW federation. :)
When you come to Netherlands land of Rico Ramon Ernesto Holzken .. they love Muy Tai bro no ego
What?😅
The American team members have a chip on their shoulders or something… the first guy was throwing stuff at high speed. And then that takedown?? Insecure need to prove oneself? It didn’t make him look good in my eyes. Just a sore loser who needed to cheat outside of the fight style.
the push kicks were giving Kayla Harrison fits
First guy gets the point.
Is it just me or pink short girl always do hard spar. Of course you should sometimes but pity for those who came to learn especially beginner (not talking about this vid cuz none of em are) end up not having a lot of chance to practise what they learn during seminar
She hard spar with those who're beyond a certain level. There were some vids recently where she went totally light against total beginners who just started MT.
Just a typical Thai who thinks this is *their* sport and they must display dominance
tkd flutter leg kick I learned from hard2hurt
What is it on 7:40 ? Nor woman nor man
That's Sage Northcutt
Roided egotistical lesbian
You can relate
Seriously though...her name is Natalia and I'm sure her birth name was Nathan.
I like light sparring but there has become a massive fad on the internet about attacking all sparring and acting like it is all violent and out of line, I dislike this fad much more than actual hard sparring.
The girl in pink is gorgeous
Finally, another man of culture. I thought I was the only one noticing the finer details in this video. Her name is Duang LookAtMe.. something, but what's in a name 🤔
imagine using a takedown on a LEGEND because he had some fun, lame ego from the American dude
its a Muay Thai seminar, why would you do take downs..
If floyd mayweather does a boxing seminar, would u kick him to?
bunch of Egos got hurt in stand up 😘
Yep... do a double leg take down and feign a knockout punch while he's down on an unpadded floor and say you held your own boxing against the best! Super Cringe!
fun to watch
The thai girl is so cute. I was worried the whole time: "Please dont hit that beautiful face!"
@10:50 This guy is old enough to know moving around that much will wear you out. Economy of motion!
Kuziutina wanted a real fight. Not saying takedowns and grappling aren't good, but fight standing and be ready for Duangdanoi. Natalia clearly wasn't ready for that love tap and smirk she got after her lower leg attempt.
The first guy with green gloves move well
I think that was professional sparring, nobody got hurt... and each of them displayed their abilities....
some of them went too hard... but probably the takedowns was something spected ...
evene the tThai girl can be heard laughing... at the last takedown....
some heated emotions but two elite schools...
Very cool
I know Kayla could’ve murdered her easily but that girl is slick on her feet. Shout out to em both.
The girls sparring harder than the men.
the last fighter in the video is Borys Mańkowski
The blond girl with short hair... does she have some ego problem?
Roid rage
какие то веселые спарринги...
Last guy was cool 😂
Was hoping for thiago to hop in and spar
What is it with Americans and bad sparring etiquette? It’s a Muay Thai seminar ffs
pink gloves yo
At 6:08 6:09 Kayla threw a left that could've ended it right then in a real fight, but overall, I think Kayla's stand up level was exposed there...Btw what a cutie lil M-T girl with the pink shorts! ;-)
I see what type of fighter Kyla is going to get destroyed against
Borys💪
Is there only world champion of something everywhere? LOL
mt is the best. love the takedown. lol'd
why are a lot of MMA fighters who spar muay thai so spazzy and have barely any technique? 7:38 for example, homies throwing jumping kicks but cant even move without crossing his feet, resorts to take downs instead of actually clinching.
Homie is actually a home girl...I know right?!
7:51 VAI, XUXA! kkkkkkkkkk rachei
bro the kuz chick was fighting for her life.
3:04 dont do him like that xD
5:56 does'nt she say ''don't kill me, hehe'' and the proceed to go quite hard herself while the other is chilling? shes provoking at that point tbh.
Does anyone know the name of the Thai girl in pink shorts 6:30 ?
Ives cateather
I always call her Duang LookAtMe... because her last name is looong and complex. She is a rising star and the most beautiful MT Pro to have ever existed. Her sister is just as beautiful 😍
Don't know what that lady in black was doing at 6:00. Keeps throwing her upper body in first after getting kicked several times. She was pretty much scared the rest of the fight and throwing punches and kicks out of her range because she doesn't want to get kicked again.
small pertinent remark when the boxers had no option with a fist he threw people to the ground too bad it was the time to learn
I like her style, what's her name?
quem foi o brasileiro que gritou "vai xuxa" aos 7:50 pelo amor de deus kkkkkkj
Where is the training value if you keep taking down your opponent in a striking match? I would utilize these Thai fighters to my advantage by utilizing strikes only to become a better striker. Afterall, this isn't supposed to be all out full contact, it is controlled to prevent ill will and injuries. Resources that were presented to learn were wasted by the judoka.
I took down Manny Pacquiao 5 times in our training session today. I learned how to be a complete asshat today!!!
What I really despise is that Duangdawnoi always starts with "Don't kill me" imediately followed by unnecessarily hard punches and kicks.
Not gonna lie. I WOULD tr to fuck HER up after a few of those... I wouldn't succeed, but I would try. Senchai.. Complete opposite. He is always controlled and nice, knowing he does not have to proove anything. I might be alone there, though.
Geez Natalia’s ego got hurt or what? This is a Yokkao Muay Thai seminar and she’s literally just tie up and takedown against Duang😂 even Kayla Harris let her hands go
lot of complain for takedown, i dont see any problem, muay thai allow catch kick and take the opponent down, do you ignore that in sparring?
I don't know if this is muay thai or wrestling... lolz... I think it's wrestling
Takedowns, on a Muay thai seminar with some of the most notable fighters to do it. Once again ATT gymfighters trying to show off their "superiority".
Can someone tell these guy the difference between a sweep and a takedown.
Ella odia que le peguen 😂😅😂😅
Kayla Harrison it was very slow and clumsy like beginner ..
Lol the comments took themselves way too seriously, even Saenchai didn’t care. It’s in fun 😂
1:26
borys the best hahah
Borys!
7:51 girl need to chill
Who is that thaigirl
my girlfriend
@@santiagooarg6990 omg
In ur dreams boyyyy @@santiagooarg6990
Welcome back men of culture.
America is cringe
I love the Yakkao team but if you don’t want to get taken down or don’t want your opponent to throw like they are trying to hurt you as well , You all should ease up on the power behind your shots ESPECIALLY Duangdawnoi
Also I love Duangdawnoi she’s great I just think she doesn’t quite know how to hold back
Its a muay thai seminar tho… who shoots double legs during a striking seminar
Girl versus boy în real life hard to beat the boy.
What
that team is cringe
6:55 why figher women look beautiful
I only saw one gorgeous fighter?
А светловолосое это девушка что-ли?
The girls go too hard during sparring. Never spar with them.
Marreta ali sentadinho kkkkkkkk
kuzy with the hgh chin is so terrible at muay thai and so disrespectful here it's actually painful to watch
Very disrespectful gym they should work on they egos.
Okay, you beat them at wrestling, but what's the point? You're in a Muay Thai class trying to learn stuff. Okay how about next time they bring Russian Sambo fighters training in Thailand, see if they can try and take them down.
the girl is going way to hard i think she cant handle when she gets beat
