That's all they are stories, MJW talks like he's been there, and all the fight scenes in movies were, in fact real life 😂😂😂 Hell yeah did Van Damme stand on a motorcycle in real life like in hard target.......... movie martial arts isn't real fighting. Look at Matt Damon how good they made him look in Bourne Identity, Seagal is a REAL martial artist just because he chooses not to trash talk everyone and actually talks sense does that make him fake ?
@kimjongillest5995 That's because he is, so is MJW, JCVD, Jason statham in fact alot of movie stars are legit martial artists including Keanu Reeves, now Seagal holds a 7th dan in Akido........ not legit? He's studied the art 31 years, and that's after he originally got his black belt, so when people says he's no legit they clearly have no understanding about it at all............ just jumping on the Seagal is fat and useless band wagon following people like sheep, when you think about martial arts, Bruce Lee pops straight into everyone's minds but why argument states he wasn't a legit martial artist as he didn't hold any qualifications or belts.
Imagine; if people let an eloquent, thoughtful and honest person, like Micheal Jai White speak. I've been a huge fan of MJW since SPAWN. The man is a humble, living legend.
Michael Jai White would straight up send Seagal into the 7th dimension with one kick. To be honest, I still think Out for Justice and Under Siege are remote droppers, but the more I learn about Seagal.. he's like a cartoon character!
Yeah, I'll admit, I was a kid when I saw his first couple of movies. He hit his peak with Under Siege, and the next thing you know, he got fat, became a Buddhist, did The Glimmer Man, The Alaskan movies, and his star power plummeted. Because there was no internet, we didn't know what a joke he was
Anyone who thinks MJW cant fight doesn't know fighting or martial arts. His techniques are near flawless and his knowledge is insane. All martial artist and fighters who have worked with him have said he is legit. Also watch his youtube channel on fighting techniques. Absolutely insane. He smash Steven Seagal
I refused to go see the Black Panther when they didn't cast Michael Jai White. Then my wife reminded me he was old enough to be his dad so yeah... Still... he would have been awesome.
@@LostOneOmega Spawn was basically a CGI showcase when CGI was not commonly used but Spawn needs a sequel and not a remake. Alongside Batman, should've been a great series of movies. But on the other hand, which black actor would you use these days with the same presence as MJW?
As a life long practitioner of Aikido, I was warned 30 years ago (by guys doing stunt work) NOT to take a job with Segal because he deliberately hurts his Uke.
I think when JCVD and Seagal were in their prime JCVD would have got thrown around like a child he is way to small and weak. JCVD also ran away from fights before when he got into trouble with a hells angel guy. Think Seagal is a idiot but back then he would have won any fight with JCVD.
Michael Jai White is not a martial artist? Uh, someone please tell Steven Seagal that Michael holds black belts in 7 different martial arts disciplines; he's won something like 25+ tournament titles, including the US & North American open titles. If anyone is a martial artist, it's him...
We had a visiting Aikido instructor who when he called you up to demonstrate a technique for the whole class to watch would take the arm locks and wrist locks deeeeep into the red zone and then some. If you were lucky, you came away uninjured but you would be sore for days afterwards and sometimes need a timeout to work off the pain which had been inflicted. However as I was taught from day one, and whenever I trained with our resident instructors Sensei's and black-belt Shodans, or Nidans, when you tapped out, it is a signal that a pain threshold had been reached asking for release, and not a signal to bend the joint even further until something snaps. The essence of Aikido is NOT to injure or inflict pain, but to do enough to turn a disadvantaged situation to your advantage. The locks are designed to HOLD and control an assailant who by attempting to escape from the lock will find it painful to do so. There is no need to turn that into an opportunity to inflict pain as seems to be the case with Mr. Seagal.
We had a self proclaimed Akidio master come into our gym once and asked to demonstrate his style with ours (wrestling) he was on his back in under 10 seconds and our guy kept him pinned for 5 minutes. Akkido only works in demonstrations or against people who don't know how to fight. The second someone with a real background (Boxing, BJJ, Wrestling etc.) and it's all mixed together comes into play, he's dead.
Yeah, yeah. I briefly, had an Akido Master like that. He actually got confused how everyone left to join the Japanese Jujitsu dojo in the same complex.
You can't get a 10th degree in Taekwondo, only the korean boss of the WTF gets one, for all the others 9 is the highest. Its a special Title, just for the president of the association. A 5th grad is really high though, but can't find was Scott has. But he is a real martial artist.
Everyone knows MJW is a humble respectful well spoken gentleman and a role model for black men and martial artists for a whole generation that kicks ass in movies even when he’s the bad guy
Seagal should play a spoof of the narrative of himself that he tries to live out anyway ...sort of like naked gun type comedy ..it would be a massive hit
Seagal doesn't have a sense of humor for that. Van Damme on the other hand made a short lived Amazon series, called "Jean Claude Van Johnson" where he makes fun of his action star image and it's hillarious. Sadly Amazon cancelled it after one short season.
Seagal is 20 years older. Stupid comparison. MJW would beat Norris because now he´s 84 years old but in his prime Norris would have destroyed MJW quite easily.
@Katzenase just cause he doesn’t have a pro record doesn’t mean he couldn’t fuck up most people on the street compared to seagal who I would honestly give a 50 50 shot in a street fight against the average grown man around 35 ish, which I think is the debate here.

So MJW basically saying that he is not a pro fighter but he can fight and is like saying Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan is not a pro fighter but they can fight too.
I think Seagal did that because he thought it would make people see him as a "real" martial artist and dangerous person. But it just makes him come off like an idiot and a bully.
You know what a good storyline is Steven. He’s recruited to do something that insanely important and dangerous that nobody else is qualified or brave enough to do what’s necessary. But, the tricky part is past is a cloak of mystery and he leaves everyone questioning if they haven’t seen this movie a thousand times from him. He will stand with his arms arms, wearing a jacket or button up shirt resting on his belly staring down everyone while looking confused. Never got why anyone loved his movies because his fight scenes are boring and his acting is up there with Nicolas Cage.
Growing up i thought Seagal was a badass. As i got older and the internet came along. I quickly realized how much a piece of s that guy really is. Above the Law and Out For Justice are great films imo to this day. What a long and shitty career he had after that. He has nobody to blame, he seems like a genuine asshole
There’s smt about this podcast, don’t know how to tell, the professionalism, the relaxed tone, the humility of the participants in spite of their insane pedigree… which makes me it my favorite mma podcast. Much love and respect from France.
’On Deadly Ground’ Danish actor Sven-Ole Thorsen was cast as one of the villain's. The following is from an interview Sven made to a Danish news paper. "One day Seagal asked me to kick him in the stomach. He wanted to see what I could do. “No, what do you mean?” I said. "Yeah," he replied, "kick me." I kicked out at him, but not very hard. He lifted my leg so that I fell on my ass in front of the others. It was embarrassing. He asked me to kick properly. I spent many years on my karate and didn't want to look like a tomboy. I did a quick kick, a Mae-Geri. You lift the knee up and throw the lower leg out like a slingshot. I hit him in the solar plexus, so he fell to his knees with tears in his eyes. 70-80 people stood and watched. They were completely silent. He was helped up." A few days later Sven was informed that his character was killed off in the movie and the rest of his scenes were scrubbed.
Now this is one of the best Seagal stories I’ve heard. What was he thinking? Thorsen is a beast. I knew Seagal couldn’t defend a proper kick. This is funnier than the Gene Lebell story.
@@justinbarnett9476 The Lebell story is quite funny as well. 💩🤣As a teenager in the early 90'ties Seagal was the ultimate badass. So finding out later in life, that he is pretty much a fraud/con artist and a petty excuse for a man to boot, was a shock to the system. 😳
I wish he would get that chance to be our Spawn now. I understand CGI wasn't that great back when. I think Todd McFarlane should reconsider Michael again!. He was great as spawn!. I would love to see "The Real Spawn" with today's awesome effects!. Mr. WHITE is Spawn, period!.
His role in On Deadly Ground is hardly deep. Seagal flips a guy through the air who then bashes him to the floor. You’d do well to even spot Michael in the scene. On Deadly Ground was a decent action movie and better than its reputation.
Steven Seagal has a history of hitting stuntmen hard rather than using the illusion of the camera to create the same effect. Mainly because he wanna maintain his no nonsense approach to fight scenes. But both MJW and JCV wouldn't play ball. Steven has injured a lot of stuntmen however there was one occasion of one stuntman who knocked him down twice after seeing what he was doing. I forget who that stuntman was
DMX said the same thing about Stephen I forget what movie they worked on but I've seen it years ago. He pretty much said in a nice way he didn't have any respect for Steven because of what he did to the stunt guys
I see a lot of people atacking Steven Seagal,but if you only take a day to take a look at the videos about his way of teaching martial arts and people who trained under him,you would maybe understand why he is saying what he is saying about other martial artists.Training in Japan and everywhere else in the world is different and he was training under the masters from Japan under very strict rules and it was especially hard for a gaijin like him in that environment.That makes you a tough cookie and it takes a lot of discipline to develop skills under that stress.As far as his character goes,he comes off as akward and tough,but judging from the videos where he talks about his life and the way to stardom and everything else it takes a lot of balls to do what he did and we are talking about one of the greatest action movie stars on the planet who was in his prime in the 90s.I mean Above The Law is one of the greatest action movies ever.Right up there with Die Hard and Lethal Weapon along with Under Siege and Hard To Kill for example and Out For Justice ! I mean those are great movies.I recomend Viking Samurai channel ,he has a lot of content about action movie stars of that era,people who worked and trained with Seagal,so if you are interested,check it out.
You mean aikido masters in Japan were so hard. Aikido masters? Like father of Seagal's first wife? You really must try for critical thinking, Steven is proofed to be lier many times. Even about his family. His aikido is fine, but aikido with huge body will always be much better than the same aikido skills with small body. It is physics.
@@Shinbusan No,I meant his approach to aikido was different and you can clearly see that i his videos and demos and if he picked that up from Japan and clearly he has,good for him.Lied about what exactly ?What about his family ? What are you saying fried ? That is why we have weight categories in every combat sport in the world.Are you saying he is supposed to be a smaller person ? I dont follow ,haha
Seagal pioneered a style in action movies that hadn’t really been seen before. Can’t think of any other action stars that did. And everything he made with Warner was awesome.
James Lew is a great stuntman and martial artist ! I didn’t know he was one of the stuntman that was being a bit I’ll treated during his stunts with seagal !
There was another story he told, about Seagal hurting people and some of the people on set wanted MJW to hurt him in their upcoming fight scene in a movie. Apparently it was the LAST THING being filmed, so the movie wouldn't have been ruined. I don't know if Steven got word of it or what but he was BARELY touching Jai White to the point where MJW said "Hey man. This is ridiculous. I'm not gonna hurt you. You can tap me, it's not a big deal. We have a scene to shoot." (I'm paraphrasing but that's what I remember from one of his interviews with Vlad.)
One of my old coaches has family members that are stuntmen/movie extras & he told stories similar to what MJW is saying. He’d be incredibly rough with them. With new guys, he’d kick them in the nuts unprovoked to “test them.”
So people think steve can't fight but the stunt guys are getting hurt . From a guy who supposedly cant fight ? 20 years deputy sheriff working the bight shift in Louisiana, teaching akido 40 plus years, and theres no video of steve getting beaten by other martial art guys in a city with cameras in a profession filled with cameras and filming ?
The stunt men won't fight back 'cause they'd lose their job. He spent 20 years as a "reserve deputy." The Peace Officer Standards & Training Organization, which accredits police officers, has no record of Seagal being certified. Seagal's ex father-in-law gave him the dojo in Japan that made him "the first westerner" to teach there. Dude's a joke.
Yeah you know how it is. It's this dumb generation and their "trend" psychology. It's a trend to talk shit about Seagal, so everyone and their dumb mother is hopping on the bandwagon and joining the circus. Seagal is the real deal. People are too stupid too understand that Seagal can't really spar. He can only show the art form and technique. There's no trying or sparring It's made to cause permanent damage or even death on the spot.
I don’t think anyone is saying he is not a good fighter / hard man. (Certainly not me). Rogan admits it on the biggest podcast on earth to millions of his viewers for example . What is said here is that he needlessly actually hurts stuntmen - who remember cannot fight back and have to be ‘accepting’ of the treatment as they are in the submissive role of the employee to the employer. It’s hard not to see that as bullying or at the very least arrogant and uncaring.
The stunt men are getting paid by Seagal and he intentionally hurts them knowing he pays their wages, also that 20 year sheriff thing is, like most of Seagals life, BS. Yes he made an honorary sheriff but its all for the cameras. The fact he has to be babysat by a high ranking officer when he's on duty and out with the cameras says it all. You should read up on the truth behind his deception.
Look at Van Damn and look at MJW. They both kept their bodies hard even in their older age MJW looks great for a dude his age. Seagal is softer than a marshmallow.
He had a few spots on NYPD BLUE as Reggie Fancy. I wished they had put him in as a regular on that show. He would’ve done great as Andy’s partner after Bobby died.
You can never get sick of or run out of Steven Seagal stories.
You can´t deal with the truth, pal!
What makes me laugh more is to hear Michael talk about Steven Seagal beating the shit out of stuntmen.😂😂

"One day Seagal asked me to kick him in the stomach. He wanted to see what I could do. “No, what do you mean?” I said. "Yeah," he replied, "kick me." I kicked out at him, but not very hard. He lifted my leg so that I fell on my ass in front of the others. It was embarrassing.
He asked me to kick properly. I spent many years on my karate and didn't want to look like a tomboy. I did a quick kick, a Mae-Geri. You lift the knee up and throw the lower leg out like a slingshot. I hit him in the solar plexus, so he fell to his knees with tears in his eyes. 70-80 people stood and watched. They were completely silent. He was helped up." A few days later Sven was informed that his character was killed off in the movie and the rest of his scenes were scrubbed.
Now this is one of the best Seagal stories I’ve heard. What was he thinking? Thorsen is a beast. I knew Seagal couldn’t defend a proper kick. This is funnier than the Gene Lebell story.
@@justinbarnett9476 The Lebell story is quite funny as well. 💩🤣As a teenager in the early 90'ties Seagal was the ultimate badass. So finding out later in life, that he is pretty much a fraud/con artist and a petty excuse for a man to boot, was a shock to the system. 😳
I wish he would get that chance to be our Spawn now. I understand CGI wasn't that great back when. I think Todd McFarlane should reconsider Michael again!. He was great as spawn!. I would love to see "The Real Spawn" with today's awesome effects!. Mr. WHITE is Spawn, period!.
Atleast Stevan can really hurt people so he can fight but only when he's paying someone to do nothing
His role in On Deadly Ground is hardly deep. Seagal flips a guy through the air who then bashes him to the floor. You’d do well to even spot Michael in the scene. On Deadly Ground was a decent action movie and better than its reputation.
Michael Jai White is a man of integrity and character, and he is the real deal. He's a better actor than Steven as well. Black Dynamite Forever!
James Lew is a living legend.
remember when steven seagal said he taught Anderson Silva to kick.
You can tell by this man's demeanor when in the same room as fighters and vice versa!
Seagal truly "doesn't see color" if he's got MJW playing on the side of the racists in Alaska. 🤣
Seagal broke Sean Connery’s wrist but Connery didn’t show it
Imagine if Chuck Norris kicked Steven Seagal in the stomach?🤣
As long as it’s his roundhouse kick
That’s hilarious! I remember that movie from the late 90’s. Michael Jai White would have been a great addition to the cast….lol
I was recently watching TMNT 2: Secret Of The Ooze and I didn't realize MJW had a brief spot in it
One of my favorite movies. What scene was he in?
Damn Mike drop a excellent steven segal impression!
Damn dude, Seagal is such a prick lol... I mainly know James Lew as the main Chang Sing guy in Big Trouble in Little China, he was awesome!
Facts....... MJW and Van-Damme dont take No B.S from "Anybody!!!
NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE!!!
No room or place for bullies anywhere but a mental home
Gotta love and respect mjw living legend
Everything I've watch with Michael Jai White in it tells me he's a good guy.
Off topic but i like that watch MJW has on. Might be breitling
Michael Jai White is so cool. They did him dirty with Spawn.
Steven Seagal has a history of hitting stuntmen hard rather than using the illusion of the camera to create the same effect. Mainly because he wanna maintain his no nonsense approach to fight scenes. But both MJW and JCV wouldn't play ball.
Steven has injured a lot of stuntmen however there was one occasion of one stuntman who knocked him down twice after seeing what he was doing. I forget who that stuntman was
DMX said the same thing about Stephen I forget what movie they worked on but I've seen it years ago. He pretty much said in a nice way he didn't have any respect for Steven because of what he did to the stunt guys
Probably Exit wounds, all 3 of them were in it
Exit wounds 2001 then he appeared in another movie with Steven Seagal in 2019
Steven is a bright cookie...
MJW is an OG that will woop some ass.
I have never seen anyone put a finger on this guy. He is THAT badass!
Seems like Seagal got MJW alot of work and offered him a role in On Deady Ground. Would have been cool if he was in it.
I see a lot of people atacking Steven Seagal,but if you only take a day to take a look at the videos about his way of teaching martial arts and people who trained under him,you would maybe understand why he is saying what he is saying about other martial artists.Training in Japan and everywhere else in the world is different and he was training under the masters from Japan under very strict rules and it was especially hard for a gaijin like him in that environment.That makes you a tough cookie and it takes a lot of discipline to develop skills under that stress.As far as his character goes,he comes off as akward and tough,but judging from the videos where he talks about his life and the way to stardom and everything else it takes a lot of balls to do what he did and we are talking about one of the greatest action movie stars on the planet who was in his prime in the 90s.I mean Above The Law is one of the greatest action movies ever.Right up there with Die Hard and Lethal Weapon along with Under Siege and Hard To Kill for example and Out For Justice ! I mean those are great movies.I recomend Viking Samurai channel ,he has a lot of content about action movie stars of that era,people who worked and trained with Seagal,so if you are interested,check it out.
You mean aikido masters in Japan were so hard.
Aikido masters?
Like father of Seagal's first wife?
You really must try for critical thinking, Steven is proofed to be lier many times. Even about his family.
His aikido is fine, but aikido with huge body will always be much better than the same aikido skills with small body. It is physics.
@@Shinbusan No,I meant his approach to aikido was different and you can clearly see that i his videos and demos and if he picked that up from Japan and clearly he has,good for him.Lied about what exactly ?What about his family ? What are you saying fried ? That is why we have weight categories in every combat sport in the world.Are you saying he is supposed to be a smaller person ? I dont follow ,haha
Seagal pioneered a style in action movies that hadn’t really been seen before. Can’t think of any other action stars that did. And everything he made with Warner was awesome.
@@michaelmyers3709 Exactly right.His movies were great and he was a breath of fresh air for a good decade.
James Lew is the man! If you doubt me, just go watch Big Trouble in Little China.
3:50 The next day 🥱
James Lew is awesome. He was great in Hot Shots 2 😄.
James Lew is a great stuntman and martial artist ! I didn’t know he was one of the stuntman that was being a bit I’ll treated during his stunts with seagal !
There was another story he told, about Seagal hurting people and some of the people on set wanted MJW to hurt him in their upcoming fight scene in a movie. Apparently it was the LAST THING being filmed, so the movie wouldn't have been ruined. I don't know if Steven got word of it or what but he was BARELY touching Jai White to the point where MJW said "Hey man. This is ridiculous. I'm not gonna hurt you. You can tap me, it's not a big deal. We have a scene to shoot." (I'm paraphrasing but that's what I remember from one of his interviews with Vlad.)
This the same guy who said he can beat Jon Jones 💀
HAPPY 57TH BIRTHDAY MICHAEL JAI WHITE !!!!
Steven Seagal is like a reverse Chuck Norris…..
One of my old coaches has family members that are stuntmen/movie extras & he told stories similar to what MJW is saying. He’d be incredibly rough with them. With new guys, he’d kick them in the nuts unprovoked to “test them.”
If we can't trust an anonymous 3rd hand story from the internet, then what can we trust?
I liked seagal till I learned about him hurting stunt guys just because . The leg gash in under siege, maybe his best movie .
I want to know is what is that watch Michael Jai White is wearing?
So people think steve can't fight but the stunt guys are getting hurt . From a guy who supposedly cant fight ? 20 years deputy sheriff working the bight shift in Louisiana, teaching akido 40 plus years, and theres no video of steve getting beaten by other martial art guys in a city with cameras in a profession filled with cameras and filming ?
The stunt men won't fight back 'cause they'd lose their job. He spent 20 years as a "reserve deputy." The Peace Officer Standards & Training Organization, which accredits police officers, has no record of Seagal being certified. Seagal's ex father-in-law gave him the dojo in Japan that made him "the first westerner" to teach there. Dude's a joke.
Yeah you know how it is. It's this dumb generation and their "trend" psychology. It's a trend to talk shit about Seagal, so everyone and their dumb mother is hopping on the bandwagon and joining the circus.
Seagal is the real deal. People are too stupid too understand that Seagal can't really spar. He can only show the art form and technique. There's no trying or sparring It's made to cause permanent damage or even death on the spot.
I don’t think anyone is saying he is not a good fighter / hard man. (Certainly not me). Rogan admits it on the biggest podcast on earth to millions of his viewers for example . What is said here is that he needlessly actually hurts stuntmen - who remember cannot fight back and have to be ‘accepting’ of the treatment as they are in the submissive role of the employee to the employer. It’s hard not to see that as bullying or at the very least arrogant and uncaring.
The stunt men are getting paid by Seagal and he intentionally hurts them knowing he pays their wages, also that 20 year sheriff thing is, like most of Seagals life, BS. Yes he made an honorary sheriff but its all for the cameras. The fact he has to be babysat by a high ranking officer when he's on duty and out with the cameras says it all. You should read up on the truth behind his deception.
Look at Van Damn and look at MJW. They both kept their bodies hard even in their older age MJW looks great for a dude his age. Seagal is softer than a marshmallow.
I watched Steve get throne all over the mat in by 9 Don Kenny Markie in 96
I thought it was Steph curry and KD from the thumbnail haha
Mention Peter Gotti to Seagal and his underpants explode with fury.
I'll take Michael Jai White and Van Damme over Seagal *ANY DAY!* 👍🏿
Dmx said the same thing about Segal hurting people purposefully.
DMX had a similar story on Segal. Said he dislocated Xs shoulder for pretty much nothing
Tore someone's bicep is crazy 😂😅
He had a few spots on NYPD BLUE as Reggie Fancy. I wished they had put him in as a regular on that show. He would’ve done great as Andy’s partner after Bobby died.
MJW is one of my fav actors. He played such a good spawn
MJW is a great storyteller!
I always thought he was tyrin turner lmfao
