Ikr. One time boxing I caught a pro in the stomach and he doubles back and I ask 'you good' and he looks disgusted, and says 'you should have finished me!' madness.
Yes when I was a beginner in 2007 I got the brakes beat off of me for the first year and a half. My God I wish I could sparred with true pros like Jeff and the gentleman in this video! Nice!
I’m from Egypt and fluently speak Arabic and I thought I just had to let y’all know that the coach was telling everyone to take it is easy and to slow down up until the last match. He was also talking real nicely about Jeff and complimenting him to others while watching him fight. These guys are amazing and quite talented. He clearly wanted to make sure Jeff didn’t get hurt.
Hi mma shredded you proberly don’t remember me but I was the kid that was revising on your videos of sparing and it really helped me win this year for my Kyoshin karate knock down comp it was really tough but still succeeded but I just want to say keep doing what you’re doing because know I do mma which is Brazilian ju Jitsu Kyoshin and kick-boxing and you’ve inspired me to do all of this and my coaches so thank you.
Great video! I also like your personality, there is no ego, big heart, good commentating, showing the hits of the sparringparters etc. You are a great human being!
It amazes me how you frequently and consistently churn out such diverse content. Not only style and approach wise but globally! The recent content has been off the charts. Ezzat's knee exits are so nice. Omar seems well prepared for your style and approach, he did his homework. Loving his elbow use! Really effective but also stylistic, he is my favorite. Ally looks like a tree of limbs! I like how it turned into a bag of pop rocks in the final minute. Super impressed with Omar Y, that was a determined defense! Nour has that calm legs active hands thing that always looks controlled but effective. Great job! Your cardio and energy level is always so good! Maybe you are immune from jet lag at this point 😂.
awesome session and thanks for the breakdown! You all handled it like true professionals. Alot to learn from here, whether it comes to striking, grappling, attitude and how you carry yourself win or lose.
Siempre es muy agradable ver tus sesiones de sparring donde vayas Jeff se nota el nivelazo y la humildad que llevas! Saludos desde Argentina! Te esperamos de vuelta alguna vez!
Beautiful display of high level striking, I love watching these frame-by-frame breakdowns. Watching Ezzat Hiedar’s striking was masterful, hard to believe he’s 47! Love the class and respect you show to each of your opponents, really showcasing the traditional values of combat sports. 🥋
That's how gym sparring should be done. Jeff looks great as always, and the students of this academy are very fortunate to have such great teachers. Zero ego, just great skills and control.
Amazing sparring with highly skilled controlled professionals with some very intriguing fight styles and techniques you don't commonly see here. I never realized Egypt had such an interest in MMA. Must've been a great international experience for you.
Even going a little light, I can't believe Jeff was able to go five rounds with those monsters. Also, one other thing he does very well is split guys' timing. I hope to hear that explained a little more sometime 🙂
Easily one of my fave vids oj thus channel. I can watch it 100 times on replay and not get sick of the flow state, high-end yet clean sparring thats taking place.
I used to lockbox and Thai box in Egypt but that ended 15 years ago. I thought for sure I would recognize at least one of the coaches or something but no. Omar the coach is young too so maybe that's why. I think shando rings a bell. I like those guys. I feel they're a good bunch to represent fight sports in Egypt honestly. I miss that place. If only I didn't have to lose friends and flee to save my life...
Amazing work to everyone involved, no ego, full control, respect for your opponent, letting everyone work but giving them the right level of a look. Absolutely clinical in your approach. damn dude, your content is consistently amazing.
Hello Jeff, I recently discovered your channel and immediately subscribed because I finally found an elegant Muay Thai boxer. Originally a savate boxer (10 years) then an english boxer (8 years), I found Thai boxing linear, rigid and not very graceful. Thanks to you and your videos, I'm learning that it's possible to stay airy and mobile. You're a real inspiration to me. Especially as you're always humble and kind in your sparrings. Don't stop publishing: I'm addicted. (Translated from french)
You are living the dream of a fighter. Traveling the world and sharpening your fighting skills across the world. What a fight IQ you have! And what a gas tank you got too!!
Hold on hold on hold on, first guy is 47 years old????!!!! He moves like a feather. My new life goal is to move and keep training like that when I reach his age
I'm genuinely happy you came to my country! ^^ Wish I could know about it though 😭 I hope you visit Alexandria one day (my home city); they have great gyms too! Stay Blessed Bother!
Man, that head coach was lowkey lighting Jeff up a little bit (I know it's a friendly sparring not a competition but still). What a beast of a human being, to move like that in 47 years of age and he looks hella strong as well.
Great stuff! Would love to see you interact with the Japanese MMA/Kickboxing community in the future! A lot of them have their RUclips channels as well. Gonna be a great watch =)
The atmosphere in the gym is so tense! Did you spar everyone in a row or did you get some rest in between? Also the tall guy didn't wear any shin guards was he still allowed to kick? Love your content, it looks so damn fun!
that kick that grazed your cheek in the beginning looks like a move you'd see in karate during kumite. Going straight and turning at the last moment (to go through a guard) instead of a normal circular roundhouse.
You rock man! Thanks for explaining the process while you’re sparing. I’m glad I subscribed to your channel! Btw I’m a normie. I don’t know much about fighting but would like to start kick boxing
Another fun vid. @@mmashredded I would like to see you commentate on some other fighters. Pick a guy, follow him through a training and then sparring session. I'm just spitballing here but I think it would roll into a nice commentating career. Your coaches eye, athlete's strategy development and application, and your personal experience as both an MMA insider and a prolific commentator already = perfect combo!
Thought the first guy (Isaac) was Mighty Mouse at first 😂keep up the good work dog, I'm learning a lot from watching your videos... I especially like the Jiu Jitsu but these kickboxing videos help very much, thanks for posting!
Of all Jeff's videos I watch this one a lot. The first guy is 47 and I'm 48. I'm nowhere near as good but it gives me hope. I started training at 42. I've been doing mostly Muay Thai but now getting into BJJ, then perhaps transitioning to MMA. I'm a hobbyist, of course. But I train A LOT. 😂 I love it!❤ I pull Jeff Chan moves in sparring.😊
yooo that rear inside leg kick > cross > rear high kick at 2:54 is way too clean, stealing that one for sure. Looks like you throw the cross further left then normal to bait him slipping into the high kick as well?! Awesome content as usual.
This is how sparring is supposed to be. Nobody is getting destroyed. Or hurt. Just good lessons
Ossss
Ikr. One time boxing I caught a pro in the stomach and he doubles back and I ask 'you good' and he looks disgusted, and says 'you should have finished me!' madness.

@@armbar1981ok that’s insane. People need to know the difference between sparring and an actual match
Gotta respect Jeff he just travels the world entering dungeons and challenging all the monsters for fun 😂
:p cheers!
Jeff is on a whole another level, and deserves all his flowers. Bro is a megalodon shark in the deep darkest waters.
His Saenchai sparring was especially great.
how tho?? how do u have the time and money to just travel the world and let all these random ppl allow u to spar lol
I would buy this game
I’ve never followed Egyptian fighters but the control and skill here is incredibly respectful!!
:)
Yep, really nice.
I’m from Egypt and fluently speak Arabic and I thought I just had to let y’all know that the coach was telling everyone to take it is easy and to slow down up until the last match.

You are also trully amazing Jeff !!! Thanks for everything you do , and much love from Morocco @@MMAShredded !!
very nice and respectful fighters

That's a good session. No real damage and a lot of practice.

Thank you!!!
You are literally my favorite person to watch spar. Your flow is so good it MAKES your opponent flow at your rythm.
It's combat arts personified.
thank you!!
Etiquette, respect, showcasing excellence, and sportsmanship. Also great to watch again and again. That's the blue-print of sparring.
💪🙏🙏
Good sparring between two smart and respectful fighters… 👍🏻
Absolutely

That kid got kicked in the nuts at 2:43 & looked around to see if anyone noticed 😂😂
Jeff pushed him right into the other dudes nuts 😂

Hospitality looks unmatched great video
Thank you!!
That clip alone gives me a great impression of Egypt. They were technical, r spectrum and kind. Gym looks amazing too. Beautiful

Es muy destacable que te expongas en publico con cada sparring, es un gran gesto de humildad como guerrero, solo los buenos maestros los tienen.

There's a growing Kickboxing and MMA scene in Egypt. Thanks for the cool sparring Jeff I hope you enjoyed Arab hospitality!
Once again a great sparring session, feel proud of yourself man 👏🏼👏🏼💪💪🤗🥋🥊
Great example of the nice & controlled sparring. Zero ego. Focus on techniques. Thanks for sharing great example.
🙏🙏🙏
That axe kick and superman cross were sliiiiick. Great rounds and great video and commentary as always Jeff, keep it coming!
Thank you!!!
I thought axe kicks were no no's in sparring
Why?@@stopthecap4317
I love these highlights and slowdowns, no need to do it myself now.
Great work. More of this please!
:))
4:05 "Thanks again for your hospitality, omar"
~ Knocks down Omar
😆love it
all love haha
Just when you think you can't get any better, you do. Good stuff... 🤙
Thanks bro!!
Great sparring! Very respectful.
Thanks for sharing.
:)
It was our pleasure
Thanks alot for all the info
🙏🙏🙏
Oh we enjoyed it Jeff. Your narrative sparrings are awesome!
thank you!!!
I always say it: this guy's sparring videos are way better than most Hollywood fight scenes
Thanks :)
Did that dude actually use the popeye windup punch at 7:21? lol
Hold on hold on hold on, first guy is 47 years old????!!!! He moves like a feather. My new life goal is to move and keep training like that when I reach his age

always a pleasure to see u spar jeff. True veteran and such massive experience
props for both of you being so controled yet competive very nice keep up the great work guys

love these videos, Jeff. Such great examples of respectful, high-level sparring. The first dude is 47! Crazy :)
thanks man!
Amazing stuff. What a great opportunity to showcase different skills. Thanks Jeff.
Thank you!!
they all have very good control. impressive and certainly goes directly to the gym owners style of running his gym
great watch ty
:))
very respectable sparing with 0 egos all around good techniques and you can tell they genuinely wanted to learn and have a good time
:)
Crazy control. Going all out on takedowns, decently hard punches to the body, controlled everywhere else

I Trained thaiboxing for 4 years and quit training for about 4,
I cant wait to start again watching this...
I'm genuinely happy you came to my country! ^^
Wish I could know about it though 😭
I hope you visit Alexandria one day (my home city); they have great gyms too!
Stay Blessed Bother!
good sparring! very controlled movements i can respect the 60% cap in the techniques love to see the full power matches!
Man, that head coach was lowkey lighting Jeff up a little bit (I know it's a friendly sparring not a competition but still). What a beast of a human being, to move like that in 47 years of age and he looks hella strong as well.
haha he is a beast!
This is beautiful!! 0 ego , 100 learning!!
Thank you for this knowledge Jeff. I'm often the shortest person in sparring so it was super helpful seeing how you would tackle Aly's body type 🙏🙏
thanks for watching!
This was a great video! Thanks for that. Love the hospitality element.
thank you!!!
Egypt self defense kickboxing techniques stance
At the end of your round with Aly , his coach was yelling " he's our guest " urging him to take it easy and be respectful I suppose !
Perfect technical sparring here!!! Well done ...
Love these type of your videos. Highlighting all (interesting) punches is really nice to watch
:)
If you are learning English and also MMA like me, this is the best channel
Such a dope video. Thanks Jeff!
Great sparring! You put up such good videos. Im learning so much from tou and the ones you sparr with. 10/10!
Thank you!!
Really like these type of videos. Very well edited, not over-commentating, (visually) highlighting interessant actions. Just love it.
This is great takes Omar down "thanks for the hospitality" 😂👌
Must be a dream job to go over the world sparring with great fighters!
Gabriel Varga is another fighter with an amazing guard in small gloves. Hope you get together and do a video with him soon!
Soon!!
First guy seemed like he was going kinda hard for sparring lol. That leg grab and liver shot was awesome at 0:37
Amazing video man! Thanks for sharing, this content helps me out a lot for my own sparring sessions. Cheers!
thanks!!
Jeff Chan spars in a flow/ creative way what makes it super inspirational to see and want to get of your chair and go sparring XD
thank you!
From my experience, Egyptians are really nice people with great attitudes.
Great stuff! Would love to see you interact with the Japanese MMA/Kickboxing community in the future! A lot of them have their RUclips channels as well. Gonna be a great watch =)
thank you!!! I got some sparring with Japanese pro fighters coming soon :)
The atmosphere in the gym is so tense! Did you spar everyone in a row or did you get some rest in between? Also the tall guy didn't wear any shin guards was he still allowed to kick? Love your content, it looks so damn fun!
They are all professionals who can control their movements, and none of them had any intention to hurt his opponent.
Thanks man!!

wow that's some elegant tough sparring
way to keep it playful Jeff! looking good as per usual. fun rounds!
:) thanks!!
Great sparring session, great video.
Thanks !!
lol Aly with the weight bully. This was some great rounds from everyone. High level stuff all around. Very good study material.
cheers!
This was excellent! Everybody was courteous and quite talented. Omar S. (Can't recall the spelling, my apologies) had some great unorthodox strikes.
I love this video I was going to give up on Bjj because of my age. But now I know you can be a blackbelt at any age

47.... this guy is 47.... what an Idol. Amazing fighter, great sport. I thought he was in his early 30s.
he looks amazing for his age!
I love watching controlled sparring!

What I like about this sparring is they maintain the speed fast but keep the power less. Only high skill and experience fighter can do this.

Those guys were cool. Great, varied rounds to watch.

When Jeff does seminars, he should have in the contract that he is to be carried around at the end of sparring. 😅
Hahahhaha
2:57 That guy has a really clean and swift twist kick.
