*I watched this video a good while back and it's awesome when Togo Ishi does these short sparring matches against different martial artists. He did one recently too and even starred in a Japanese movie where he uses JKD, called 1 percenter but you can probably find it online*
The Taido guy is Tetsuji Nakano, four consecutive Taido champion. Nakano is also woking as the director of an osteopathic clinic. the JKD Guy is Togo Ishii, he's student of Hiro Watanabe who claimed to have trained under Ted Wong.
A year or two ago I found some Taido videos with Nakano sensei in them, and I was hooked on Taido. Here's his youtube channel: www.youtube.com/@user-lf9rm3rj5z And a massive playlist of videos he's in that I could find: ruclips.net/p/PLzIgrqXbB4Uv0qhMunWPPKTve99rxYrgJ
> Open the video > Taido movements > Almost perfect pronunciation of capoeira terms in portuguese > =0 My man, was not expecting for that, congrats from Brazil and from a Capoeirista. Not even counting the almost perfect subtitles. At 02:25 Tetsuji does basically a Esquiva de Frente by putting his right hand and knee on the floor and his left leg stretched. The best commentary yet man, great job!
that was for demonstration purposes. I imagine the correct way he would use it would be as an element of suprise. He could have sneaked some leg grabs our kicks at the opponent's ribs
Probably why he didnt throw tons of kicks. He looked controlled. Id imagine, or at least it looks like, hes sparred enough to at least know how to not gas himself super quick.
@airthrowDBT it won't. I'm a brazillian, judo and capoeira are common around where i live. In both i had the necessity of learning falls. You will only scratch badly your palm if you do it wrong. It has to he fixed in a way that make it a support, It shouldn't slide off
*Exactly, that's why JKD would work better against most of these arts, cause they use too much energy with all that jumping around which gets people tired.*
Wow, expertly done by both gentlemen! JKD guy looked great, and the only way to stop the Taido guy was to stuff him or cut off his movements because he was so fast, fluid and unorthodox! JKD fighter had great footwork, stable stance, and great hand dexterity whereas the Taido practitioner was constantly evading, entering and exiting while striking, and level changing for insane illusiveness and angling for strikes
The JKD guy trained under Ted Wong and Hiro Watanabe, you should see his master Hiro Watanbe, he's in his mid 60s but is so fast and strong. There are a few videos on his 1inch channel which are subtitled in English and he explains some theories and shows some moves, the guy is a beast!
Taido feels like a truly unique style that justifies it's specificity in training, like a lot of traditional pracices are like archaic arts that do the same thing combat sports do just to a lesser intesity/quality...while Taido is exactly what it is 🤷♂️
Great footwork by them, which helps keep them dynamic whether in drills or spars, it shows that they know what they're doing whether it's a controlled exchange like this or when it's with actual hard contact. Being too flat footed or linear is a no-no when it's the actual thing.
I am the guy that sent you the links of the Aikidoka sparring. That guy is part of a group of Japanese martial artists that collaborate on youtube. The Aikido guy has sparred the Taido guy and done videos with tbe JKD guy. There is also a Japanese former UFC fighter, a couple full contact karate guys, a koryu practitioner, a Systema fuy wirh a brown belt in BJJ, and a couple ninjas. They very recently had a large full contact tournament that most of the group competed in. Af one point or another they have all had matches of various degrees of contact with each other. If you are in contact with Nakano senei or Mr Ishi they can probably help you get with the eest of the group to get permissions to feature their videos.
@@o0...957 kuro-obi world had some collabs with Hiro Watanabe (Togo's master) and Togo, but they're separate as Aikibiker said. I love those guy's channel, especially when Hiro Watanabe shows some of the moves. The guy's a true master!
Very nice video, great showcase of true abilities. Well done by each side. I love that this wasn't choreographed or scripted. Also, both guys were getting tired, near the end, that is where the difference between average fighters and Bruce Lee was, Bruce Lee was relentless in his endurance training. Because he knew against a skilled fighter, he would have to work at it, it wasn't going to be over in just a few moves.
Like I said these guys are great though just wanted to point out the fatigue, these guys displayed, both arts are very demanding, and unless you are a demi-god, 3 minutes is going to be a grueling fight. These two were very skilled, and conditioned. Both on point. Would have liked to see the JKD guy use more elbow smash stops. This was my first time seeing taido. Doesn't take a rocket surgeon to know he was skilled though. Lol
I've look up on Togo Ishii, he trains under Hiro Watanabe, and Hiro Watanabe trains with Ted Wong. There is also other JKD masters in Japan, but I only know another one, Yori Nakamura who is under Dan Inosanto in JKD concepts, Kali, and Silat.
Togo never fights unfortunately as he does these 1 min short sparring sessions with no mouthpiece or gloves, just to show the footwork and how the moves would look like in reality. The best sparring he did is in his last video from 2 days ago if you watch it against a Karate guy as there's a bit more contact there with JKD stop kicks and some soft punches but fast.
I believe I saw a video where a Taido practitioner knocked down famed Kyokushin practitioner Shokei Matsui. Matsui was an extremely proud old-school Japanese warrior and he was FURIOUS that a nobody knocked him down.
Very interesting. Would love to see how Taido stacks up against styles with low kicks. The positive I think it is really cool and looks amazing. On the negative I do not think it is practical and won't stack up in the combat sports arena but would do well against traditional styles with a linear approach to sparring. Looks like you gotta be very fit and supple to do this art. Looks awesome.
I do enjoy how controlled this match is. The taido is very impressive and hard to defend. Maybe capoeira can adapt some taido aspects with the pivot on the knee for faster rotation, either way very cool to see some pressure testing
I always thought Taido was just from the Palladium RPG “Ninjas and Superspys.” I weirdly learned a lot about various martial arts from that game back in the 80’s
They where like "Jerry what are you gonna say!?" LMAO. Taido looks neat though, i would love to see the Korean version and also learn more about their history? The Why.
Taido mans stepping isamazing . Some of those tumbling moves, if used at the right time could be effective. He stayed in a low stance too. It makes my point.The modern martial artist doesnt replace the traditional stepping with a boxers footwork because it's better. He does it because it's easier.Bruce Lee said their taking the stairs, I'm taking the elevator. Without realizing, the stairs make your legs stronger.
They both look quite skilled. Good JKD looks good, despite it not always having the best reputation. Taido seems cool, fighter seems athletic and moves nice.
Have you ever heard of Engolo? It's the ancestor art of capoeria and is still practiced in some African countries. It's essentially full contact, less dance like, capoeira. Really cool stuff. They spar bare knuckle.
About 2:10 we first think the guy in black hit first, right? Then you watch in slow motion and see that the guy in white in fact "hit" first in direction of eyes. And his kicks in "weird" angles are interesting to see.
Taido has its roots in Okinawan karate that was evolved by the war. Its founder came back from war and created the style as a way to be more creative in karate
The taido flying 360 hook kick looks like mine and my namesakes for that matter. Not gonna get into history because I'll get taken to school here but I always thought the early hooks Huey and Naruto did were from old Korean martial arts but it has to be more Taito now I consider the knife hands.
I trained in Jeet kune do for 7 years but I had a lot of MMA experience and a taekwondo background which is in the Jeet kune do arsenal along with Western Boxing,Wing Chun, Muay Thai, Karate, Jujutsu, Catch Wrestling,Kali and Tai chi. I realize when I spar with Asian men form China or Japan there are very fluent in is there martial arts form but they didn't have no structure. Bruce Lee said that a guy who did boxing and wrestling for one year can beat a lifelong martial artist and that's a fact💯
Doesn’t sound like Bruce Lee’s JKD. Sounds like concepts. "An individual can not learn the principal roots of JKD through the accumulation of many different styles; For that would be like a singer trying to improve his voice by accumulating many songs. Rather: it is by understanding the roots of the problem." - Dan Inosanto [1969] "As in boxing or fencing, JKD is a step by step project where every move must be repeated many times" - Bruce Lee
JKD should be using the lead/strong right hand to stop hit or jab. He should draw his opponent in and then hit him with a front leg side kick to the midsection.
1:13 this is what I was just thinking, that's an interesting style but he better have some grappling. Because he could easily wind up with a guy on top of him. And I wonder if JKD guy has any grappling or wrestling, a lot of JKD people think you should never go to the ground, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know how to just in case
Took Taido for a year in college. Was it effective in a "real" fight? Doubtful. But my cardio was freaking amazing. More fun way to burn my freshman 15 than jogging and a fun group to train with.
Taido here looks wonderful, beautiful but still practical. Dude controls the distance well and while the economy of movement is always the largest flaw in capoeira, taido or northern styles of kung fu- dude here stays relaxed and doesn't seem to be tiring at all, trying to find a good position to strike. And JKD guy is probably one of the best I've seen, mostly JKD guys are semi obese clowns arguing constantly about some meaningless details and lineages.
The JKD guy had great blocking at least. But should have gotten closer in and used his close quarter combat skills watching his lower body like the legs. He would have beat him faster.
If JKD guy smothers that guy more it's gonna end up on the ground, but you might get hit on the way in. This guy's a problem if you're not a grappler. Personally I'd throw front kicks witch is awkward in a side stance.
I really enjoy your experience and expertise. As well as your videos. I must say the fact is none of this will ever be true. The JKD proves his master of craft as he avoids any impact while still standing. Taido goes to the ground, that's only working on a mat not in real life. Do a video with one of these guys coming up to me in a bar, and realize they wouldn't get the distance back, as they were standing next to me when the fight begins. Being within closer distance is our advantage as JKD. We completely can control how much damage is done. JKD isn't for sparring. I'm not directly from Bruce Lee, thank you Ssgt Bhottorf SF/1st Ranger battalion for helping a Jewish kid in Florida join the US army 🪖.

At 02:25 Tetsuji does basically a Esquiva de Frente by putting his right hand and knee on the floor and his left leg stretched.
The best commentary yet man, great job!
Oh yeah! Esquiva! I'll have to add that term next time I analyze anything that looks like Capoeira!
@@FightCommentary If I can help somehow with that just let me know✓
What is a spin kick called in Capoeira? More specifically, an outside crescent kick.
@@FightCommentary This one? ruclips.net/video/JO_DB2Fqls0/видео.htmlsi=lkLW2rF1mrVT9vFK
If yes is called Meia-Lua de Frente (Frontal Half-Moon)
Got any capoeira clips of you training?
Taido dude using a lot of energy. Not sure how long one would last throwing themselves all over the place and getting up off the floor like that.
that was for demonstration purposes. I imagine the correct way he would use it would be as an element of suprise. He could have sneaked some leg grabs our kicks at the opponent's ribs
Probably why he didnt throw tons of kicks. He looked controlled. Id imagine, or at least it looks like, hes sparred enough to at least know how to not gas himself super quick.
@airthrowDBT it won't. I'm a brazillian, judo and capoeira are common around where i live. In both i had the necessity of learning falls.
You will only scratch badly your palm if you do it wrong. It has to he fixed in a way that make it a support, It shouldn't slide off

This fight was awesome, it's not everyday you see legit martial arts matches thats not typical MMA.
That’s because many of these fun advanced techniques will not work against the basics in MMA.

I feel Taido is one underrated style like Savate.
Great footwork by them, which helps keep them dynamic whether in drills or spars, it shows that they know what they're doing whether it's a controlled exchange like this or when it's with actual hard contact. Being too flat footed or linear is a no-no when it's the actual thing.

As Brazilian you got the technics accent on point
Wow. Both are quite good! Excellent showcase of Taido, never heard of this style
That’s was good exchange. Controlled light contact has it place. Both have good movement quick movement. Light on their feet.
Jkd mistake is he didn’t look at the tekken 8 chart. He needs to sidestep left
I believe I saw a video where a Taido practitioner knocked down famed Kyokushin practitioner Shokei Matsui. Matsui was an extremely proud old-school Japanese warrior and he was FURIOUS that a nobody knocked him down.

The Taido's black belt has had it's black fade mainly away. It's pretty much a white belt now!!!
Wow there both really good. Fantastic. Well balanced. Strong. Fast. Accurate.
Yo the taido guy is even doing the jenga movement! You can see the triangular step backs!
I want to learn Jeet kune do I hope im not too old 😮
The taido guy is the motion capture model for reina from tekken 8
The taido guy is already readable in attacks. If you noticed, the amount of times he used his kicks got reduced when he learned he got figured out.
Taido’s beauty goes away once they are in a match 😂😂
still looks majestic to me, even at the end
I do enjoy how controlled this match is. The taido is very impressive and hard to defend. Maybe capoeira can adapt some taido aspects with the pivot on the knee for faster rotation, either way very cool to see some pressure testing
I always thought Taido was just from the Palladium RPG “Ninjas and Superspys.” I weirdly learned a lot about various martial arts from that game back in the 80’s

"meia lua de compasso" Nice pronunciation! Congratulations!
What were the contact rules? Nothing to the head, light everywhere else? Hard to see how taido works without that head contact.
Very interesting 👌, wow!!
Have you ever heard of Engolo?
It's the ancestor art of capoeria and is still practiced in some African countries. It's essentially full contact, less dance like, capoeira. Really cool stuff. They spar bare knuckle.
Tetsuji Nakano's agility is nuts, he's like stiff, compact Capoerista
Is this from Kuro Obi world? Lotsa of material on Taido and Bajiquan
It looks like the JDK guy figured out the Taido guy's moves and timing. He's kinda parrying and trapping a little bit and blocking the spin kicks.
Sensei Ichi? I thought he was a Tang Soo Do instructor in Thousand Oaks, CA.
About 2:10 we first think the guy in black hit first, right? Then you watch in slow motion and see that the guy in white in fact "hit" first in direction of eyes. And his kicks in "weird" angles are interesting to see.

JKD should be using the lead/strong right hand to stop hit or jab. He should draw his opponent in and then hit him with a front leg side kick to the midsection.
I'm not convinced that Taido works. They're going lightly here.
it seemed good for kicking at the ribs

Notice how after only 2 minutes the kaido guy no longer does his fancy sommersaults and starts fighting like a regular karate guy
taido seems to have similarities with capoeira. it would be interesting to see a fight between taido and capoeira

Took Taido for a year in college. Was it effective in a "real" fight? Doubtful. But my cardio was freaking amazing. More fun way to burn my freshman 15 than jogging and a fun group to train with.

With all that energy expended you would think they would tire easily!😅
I'd like to see him fight Xu Xiaodong..
JKD man has some good quality movement….however he misses one thing…to move with a purpose
Isn't Taido the sport that has the 5 vs 1 tournament event?
Tell me more!
A fight requires two people to touch each other. This was just two dudes dancing
It's a very interesting match if you see it only as a hobby because i don't think that they could use any of these teqhniques in a real fight!
Taido guy kept changimg stances which I think was throughing off tje JKD guy a bit
This is as relevant to fighting as breakdancing vs ballet.
He would probably het a nasty reality check from a trained fighter 🙃
Taido looks cool !
Kuro Obi?
Jkd need to let him hit trap go into aikido lock or submission
The JKD guy had great blocking at least. But should have gotten closer in and used his close quarter combat skills watching his lower body like the legs. He would have beat him faster.
