The coach is Ajarn Gae, he's been coaching fighters for longer than Im alive , he trained monsters. Hell one of the reasons why Thai fighters are scariliy good is because the mitt holder simulate attacks and sweeps during mitts and light but super technical sparring often. He's just extra hard because he's training Superbon a ONE championship kickboxing champion. Outside the gym, he's pretty much that cool asian uncle that jokes a lot
It's pretty safe to say, that if you're being trained by this man... you better go with absolutely everything you have inside of you and have nothing left by the end of the session.
This dude is an absolute treasure. Every muay Thai coach I've seen so far is literally the biggest ball of energy. That is what I love so much about muay Thai and lethwei, it is 1000% of your energy 100% of the time and your body is turned into an armored weapon.
Fine line between training hard and injuring yourself. The sweep when he's exhausted and doesn't see it coming is questionable. That said, this type of training is likely what has made him so damn tough.
I think fighters like that know how to break a fall really well so they never land on something bad. Otherwise people would get knocked out/injured in muay thai by sweeps all the time
No one needs to be tripped from behind while pouring your heart out onto a bag. Disgusting disrespectful behaviour. Problem is most Thai trainers are like this
@@robertfixescars4446 ye bud the only reason they do this Is to impress each other. I copped this first hand and its fuken embarrassing and get aggravating after a while
I'm an orthopedic doctor and i've seen countless cases of shoulder dislocation and broken clavicle, cracked humerus, olecranon fracture,... from side-fall like that. If the guy was ok ,good, i give credit to the trainer for knowing his trainee. If not, there is no excuses to not calling him a shithead 🙄
@@papapetunia4905 Well if your healthy that would imply that you are already taking care of yourself. Never meant that you should apathetic about your well being, but that a “fit” and young person would have a significantly smaller chance of being injured. Especially when the floor you are falling on is cushioned.
@@shruunen2780 if getting swept is damaging you then your not in good enough condition or too old for fight training and it's time to do boxersize, I'm sorry to say. I'm 38 I had to hang my fight gloves up at 32. By 30 yo I was an old man in muay Thai years. Wish you the best shruunen 👍
@@risharddaniels1762 My point is you can't prepare for the potentiality of getting pummeled in the ring by practicing in a cushioned environment. Grit doesn't come from playing it safe. Obviously don't destroy your fighter, but I think we take safety and protection to a weird extreme in the West. We want a fighter who is tough as nails and can destroy the opposition, but then squirm when we see what it takes to become that. Look at the training they go through for lethwei and muy thai in Thailand and Burma. Intense, brutal training creating monsters in the ring.
@@mtjanglefins781 the point of maintaining safety in training is to increase the longevity of the fighter’s career. If it’s not increasing a fighter’s skill, there’s no point in doing it, you’re just creating situations where your fighter could get hurt, when there’s no need for it. It’s mma, YOU’RE GONNA GET HURT, in fact the pain is what drives me personally, but if i’m going to be getting hurt, it needs to serve a purpose. A sweep from behind is not going to make this fighter tougher or help them defend themselves in the ring, they’ll never encounter that in a real fight, unless they were dumb enough to turn their back to their opponent for long enough in the first place.
Haven't read any of the comments, but that is truly abusive. I trained with the best in Japan, and the respect for others my teacher had was immense. Morio Higaonna, my teacher, would never install mental harm. Kindness is the best weapon for a man once regarded as "the most dangerous man in Japan."
45 years ago I trained like that 7 days a week, today, after replacing a hip, I’m only able the work my upper body that hard. But I tell you what, I work it as hard today in my mid 60’s as I did as a pup!
@@maxbalitskiy9612 nah did you ever see Connor McGregor, or Tyson fury coach doing this to him. Maybe you saw muhammed Ali or Mike Tyson coach do it I seriously doubt it because most these guys have egos that are out of this world I can’t ever imagining any of those people taking a violation like that
@@grime2.085 Most of them did not and still don't have very large egos (outside of the professional ring). If they did, they wouldn't be able to fight through their losses. Second off, I haven't seen anything from McGregors coach but I've seen Fury take some cheap shots and get right back to it, which has to count for something. The boxers probably won't get KO'd by their own coaches but they're taking cheap shots just like Superbon.
Is that a little girl I hear yelling 😂 Also that sweep is just an abuse of power, training can be tough without laying your hands on someone (metaphor) like he did, that's just reckless
@@rousseau8182 it's not an abuse of power, it's to get you to stop training and it basically tells you you're already at your limit. It also teaches you not to stand on vertical grounds and also makes you more prepared, because during Muay Thai competitions, when your leg is grabbed, you get swept off your foot and chances are, you get hurt if you don't train getting swept uncalled for. Which is why uncalled foot sweeps are an important aspect of Muay Thai and NOT an abuse of power.
