With all do respect.im from Arlington Tx. I've seen brothas from south and west Dallas do this. They called it the " cofield shuffle and Beto style". These are prisons. Some of them taught me the techniques when I was locked up. It definitely works! Black power and love all day everyday!
@Righteous Shadows Dojo no I dont since I learned about lyte burly and Diallo I have been studying there techniques but I will make a video showing some beto style
Correctooo carnalitooo AZ in the house All about closing the distance and hitting angles no disrespect all stems from traditional wrestling BC era Lets all read the history books gentlemen much love from Tucson Arizona
In my diallo is using some methods from ki nagomba Cha kichwa ya mwafrika ya mashariki , Al raisi , or( la testa =the head or big buckle as the Italians call it). Al raisi or la testa are the two most common terms for this east afrikan head fighting style ,vwhick is prominent in aretrea and habasha (ethiopia) , I believe it was discovered by Ayatollah khomeni and Benito mussalinni as they tried to invade east afrikan and the defence warriors there in hand to hand combat sprung it on the mean men on the ground..
When I saw the side to side slip/feint… I said my man wrestled. It’s something we do to feint for the leg or to go under the arm for the back(striking with wrestling).Genius… respect. Salute from the Bronx!
The Midwest (in Chicago) had its own version I saw it as a kid in the late 70s/early 80s. It had 3 levels 1.) JHR- looked a bit like the Pika-boo boxing system. 2.) 52 was a subsystem in the art. 3.) Was a part of the system called Diamond or Diamond Cutter
Straight knowledge.No egos by either brotha.I would love to be trained by both of these brothers.They have a wealth of knowledge to share and impart on those willing to absorb it.
Come on guys he's not promoting beef. he just proud the East Coast bring it to the world attention... if you created a style you would like to say where it came from too. I'm just saying... peace Brothers👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Really love the connection y’all put together , I’ve studied quite a bit of martial arts and recently just found out about 52 blocks , so thanks for all the knowledge y’all sharing , cause I find it so enlightening , also some of the dual drills y’all were doing resembled a snake drill I use to do in gung fu , much love and respect to y’all !
Diallo has wrestling skills... I peeped that. Everything adds to your toolbox. If someone wants, you can study Judo for 2 years... that’s enough(green belt). Or TKD for 2 years... now you add some kicks to your hand game. Keep your hand game front and center... but have options.
Could you some day make a video demonstrating how people in the different NYC boroughs used 52? I've read that fighters from each borough had their own spin on 52.
Don Vito quatrocchi of Sam Miguel cicilian knife fighting School where demonstrated. " The 52 blocks a side step with dlice o the neck and the stab o the back". Also as huli in the video I will name in next note. Get money not violence.peace brothers.
I’ve done watch this thing over and over. I’m telling it’s one of thee best martial arts instructional videos out! Plus it’s brothers who have used what they are sharing. So it’s authentic. Pls need more like this.
You know, guys, rather than use a demo version of Movie Editor Pro, there are quality tools you can (legally) use for free like Davinci Studio or avidemux for video editing, that won't show an gigantic ugly watermark right across the centre of your screen. A tip for future videos.
At 6:25 Just to add to the Hip Hop part. Yes NYC started Hip Hop. But some of the dance elements started on the west coast. Dance styles like Locking,Popping,Boogaloo and Strutting came from the west coast. Then NYC people adopted them(after seeing them on Soul Train) and added them along with their Breaking and Uprock styles.
Please show your evidence of this locking, popping and boogaloo starting in the west, ie; dancers, or crews, from the 70s, or 80s or earlier if you can. Intresting topic!
Yes sir, Brothers will need combat hand to hand skills for them white supremacist Russian loving devils, they are training like gladiators to do us in, they are using soft targets for kill sports.
I swear I love this shit. That's y I'm a boxing fan more so than UFC and mma boxing keeps the art. MMA tends to get sloppy cause u have to account for too many ways to b attacked to keep the finesse of martial arts. This was beautiful muy brothaz
I hear what you're saying bro. But being a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner myself, I can see how this style can greatly enhance my ground game (and definitely mma). He is incorporating takedowns and elbow strikes. That's mma right there. I would actually love to see this style in mma. I think it would do really well. It looks capable of handling kicks as well.
The movie : with coach Ross of atacx gym street warrior capoeira. Lajolo I talian knife fighter. Egbe ogun of balogun. Technique of the week.and others that's what's up.
this is also basically nagomba napigu wa mikono na napigu cha kichwa (ki swahilia) for head butting and hand punching fighting. in egypt now called africa its called raisi by the eretreans and the ethiopians and la testa by the italians (but) the the style is from egypt. one love.
Beautiful video my brothas. I learned a similar street style back in the day growing up in the hood in Cincinnati , Ohio. My homies called it Violation or Enforcer. We were doing this back in the 80s. Never knew where it came from or who started doing it first...it was just a thing lol. Been reemurging myself back into this style that I did so many years ago as a youngin...becoming a true student of the combative science of this African warrior art. Appreciate y'all and those like you retaining and spreading the knowledge. Stay up and keep pressing forward at all times. Peace.
I love your stuff, Lyte! I'd really like to see a martial conversation between you and Andy Norman or Justo Diegez! It would be really interesting to mix 52 and Keysi!
The best way to master ANY fighting system is real-time sparring with head gear and gloves or without them. For the sake of the 52 blocking system, UFC gloves and head gear work best, for effective execution. There are many beautiful fighting styles, but the application of the art will always surpass theory. When punches are coming at you with speed and power, and you are caught with a big shot in the process, that’s when your fighting skills matter most. Trust me, I learned the hard way. I was forced to learn to defend and counter. Practice is the foremost best way to master the art. The 52 blocking system,if applied correctly and effectively, is very effective, especially if you incorporate proper footwork and execute timely shots after your blocks. Don’t just rely on blocking; you have to punch your ass off, in a real fight. I recommend that all students of 52 blocks, learn formal boxing before endeavoring to use this science in a real fight. It’s more than a sweet display of kung fu- like blocks against punches not thrown in real time. Both guys appear to know their stuff well. I respect the work they are doing.
why even talk about elbowing people its an illegal move in boxing.... and there is no way this 52 blocks will stand up in ufc with a high guard, zero body defence and no ground / takedowns moves ... you might as well of asked you mom "how can i win a fight?" and then she replies kick him in the balls yet again pointless as when it comes down to an professional boxing fight it is illegal.
symillickg And ufc is bullshit. All same predictable fighters. Everybody just doing bjj and muy thai. The mentality for ufc is win, lose, title belts and fake ass hoes. 52 is life or death lying in your own pool of blood. Bruce lee said it best, never be afraid of the man who knows 10000 moves, but fear the man who does 1 move 10000 times. ufc is mixed shit that has no defense, scraggly ass offense with the stand up game (i.e. Rhonda Rousey) and they always end up slamming each other putting their nuts in each other face with those little ass tight ass short on. No disrespect to people who train their asses off to fight bit UFC is not what it is.
It's not made for the ring. It's made for the streets. You can use the defensive portions for boxing/ MMA. The ring is not the be all end all unless you are paid to fight.
This is amazing to watch. In England, this stuff is called Gypsy boxing. We use this against the filth when they come questioning as we go about our business. Black men and Gypsy men have had similar problems. So similar style.
Man,my uncle used to square up with me like this all the time like this but nothing but jabs and his head movements was crazy. Now,looking at this,the angles on his jabs came like a whip and his hand speed was murder.
This is what I call, "phone booth Aikido". All martial situations are about range and leverage not style. You hit with what is the most efficient and effective for the range...head, shoulder, elbow, hip, fist, foot, knee... Thank you for this.
What he did from around 1:22 to around 1:36 is good, but can be made better. He didn't have to jump from side to side in order to grab Lyte's left arm with his left hand. He could have simply made the adjustment by grabbing Lyte's right arm with his left, or right hand which would cut down on movement, and make it more direct. And I shouldn't even say this since I'm giving insight to my own fighting style which is similar to his.
Sorry it doesn´t work for me. Come on, he is moving to the side into your right arm if you would have hit a left right combination he would habe run into your right arm. And in the beginng you could have started with a kick to his knee or between his legs than left right combination. Game over. Do not forget the kicking distance
Chris W under controlled fighting environments I agree but on the street whr it ain't no rules, effective shit was displayed. Hell if u losing a fight biting ain't forbidden. Bruce Lee bit Chuck Norris in the Chinese connection. Long story short do wut u must to win.
If your skilled enough, you won't have to bite. Difference in a trained fighter who lives for it and the person who can fight now and then ordinary people and accidentally pull off a couple wins. It goes deep, then is plain and simple. It's definitely a science and not a movie. Movies have ruined w.c. and a lot of other ancient Chinese martial arts.
Chris W totally agree, so it's integrity and confidence in ones skills to apply effectively that will determine if one becomes a biter in a fight or not. It's like u bite Whn u losing.
52blocksinfo can we see 5bi in real time with training gear, 50 percent sparring? Will you two gentlemen create that for the community? Mahalo nui loa!
