How to Fight TALL GUYS that LEAN BACK in STREET FIGHTS 

That first kicks seemed a bit hard for a demonstration 😂

and I quote "it's a skill, you train for it, if you don't train for it you're not going to get the ability"! I love it! that says a lot

Love this mate! I’ll be teaching my Partner my daughters and 2 sons this ASAP. It’s a great technique to add to their tool box. Even without practice it woukd still be effective, enough for them to be able to get a little time and space to run away from the danger

As a tall guy I approve this message. I am very good at hitting while leaning back (I think of it like a fade away jump shot) and even an “arm punch” hurts like hell on the nose. I’m a big fan of the high low attacks

Many years ago I was working at a railroad service yard in Aus. and was approached to spar when I kicked this guy in the shins, and the results surprised even me. the results were so fast , the guy considered continuing - taking a few steps before the effect took hold. I have zero training, but did this ever work.

Thank you for your training videos. They’re brilliant.

These kind of videos are perfect, straight to the point. I'd like to see more videos like this: for example, how to counter a certain stance, etc. just like this, then quickly explain it.

Love it ! Great vid thanks for posting

I got a severely comminuted bicondylar intra articular of the tibial plateau and displaced fibula fracture from a kick to the knee/shin area. I crumbled straight to the floor, couldn’t stand on that leg for months. Injuries like that usually only occur after high impact car accidents, or falling from distance. I guess I was unlucky.

You're awesome! Your journey thru different martial arts is trully inspiring

sweep kicking ... knees and lower legs another good video!

We the people need to see the punching bags get their turn for demonstrating on you lol, they're such good chaps to put up with getting tee'd off on lol

Terrific advice!!

When do we get the "Nick Pay Back" video 🤷‍♂️😂😂😂😂

Awesome examples.

Glad I watched this simple and effective

I want to see the other guy demonstrate the strikes. Lol

#FIGHTBOSS Thanks for the tips. Love your channel!

Spot on❤❤❤

I'm short and sticky...most dudes I've fought have been bigger and so I get in close cos I have a bit of Jr. high and high school wrestling us some boxing training (none of which were really cultivated much past HS lol) but by getting in close with the grabbing aspect I've saved myself worse beatings I could ha e received or came out on top cos of them having to avoid now getting dumped on their heads etc.

Great stuff, these kind of moves were one of my biggest takeaways from wing chun lessons!

Once again Very very good

As a tall guy, thanks for the heads up bud. 😂 JK, stay safe out there everyone. I hope none of you have to fight.

His sparring partner is awesome

Thanks!

Once again good advice for self defence.

😳 I was just practicing these variations, the hook, the inside, the arch, the heel..... that's crazy timing Doc, great minds do think alike 👍🏽

#Fight Boss…..I love this channel

I taught this to my 3 sons at an early age. The funny thing is that when I started teaching them was the surprise in their face when I tapped their knee the first time!😂

Oblique Kick is an underrated techinque for streetz

#fightboss Applicable information as always. Great technique for negating the opponent’s advantages and bringing them into your range for offense.

Dr. P. Love how use inner foot on the knee. Simple and direct. I am assuming that is from yourkung fu background. Well done.

Fantastic. I used to do this in sparring and competitions in full contact kickboxing in the Wales team. I first saw it applied in the 70's where Bruce Lee uses it on Chuck Norris in the film "Way of the Dragon." Great film by the way. Your opponent lifts his right knee for a turning kick off his back leg, then counteract it with my leading left leg by placing firm the sole of my left foot onto his right knee. Tap my left foot onto the floor and bounce it back up hard, turn my hip to slam my left shin into his right ribs. The same off my back right leg as an orthodox fighter, if he was orthodox to I'd reverse the process and do it off his leading left leg. Then slam a massive contact kick off the back right leg to the left side of his head, as my second kick after the right turning kick to his left rib's off my back leg. I couldn't do it now at age 49 I'd give myself a bloody hernia, lol. I can do a good turning kick off my right arm though cos I can't cock my right leg up, lol. I can't throw a mean punch anymore, but I can throw a mean face ha😂😂😂😂lol. I certainly couldn't do it on the street with a Donner kebab in my hands, lol. I'd be like 'hang on a minute mate let me just put my Blackbelt around my waist, and put my Gi on. Oh that's awfully sweet of you being patient with me." Lol. Bit more tricky if your opponent is a southpaw. You really have to reverse the process. But it's possible. If I got in the kickboxing ring with a southpaw, I'd jump out of the ring, out the door, and sprinting up the road screaming for my life, heh 😂😂😂😂 southpaw's are a nightmare, lol. Thanks dude. Great video.

Longest weapon to closest target. Makes sense.

Awesomeness. Good strategy, and it opens up a good shoot (single leg or double) if you are definitely desperate.

Open for that good ol leg kick lol

Taller opponents always means that you need to chop the tree. Calf kicks have ended more than one MMA fight. Metatarsal stomps on the top of the foot and knee shots may not look glamorous, but if your opponent is larger and you need to defend yourself, you need to do what you need to do.

Kung Fu looks fun, I love Doc’s sense of humor.

This technique is called the Yap kirk, or eliptical kick, and it is devastating to the ligaments of the knee, you get that off and that's a wrap.

And when you get hom in a clinch, give him a kiss on the cheek and say "Hello darling, phwoar your hot stuff." As he runs away screaming, never fails. Ha😂😂😂😂lol.

Where can I get a pair of those ass kicking shoes? 👞😂

He did not need that knee ! 😁

💪🏽

I think you owe him lunch for that first kick that was a little harder than need be.. Fish and chips and a pint...

Always a great lesson,,,question I was in my convertible car tanning few days ago ,thankfully I had awareness saw a guy pull up behind and watched me for 10min as I kept eyes on him as soon as road was quite for few min he approached my passenger side with one hand in pocket looked like a knife as soon as he past my fender he spun around and dove towards my passenger car seat ,I was quick to start car and drive off ,no harm,,,my question is how does one fight from driver side in car. ,,thank you if read

#fightboss ❤

#fightBoss👍😉

A solid front kick the closer the better will check distance a throw must attackers off

stomping the knee can either cause serious injury or be ineffective. Just use a good low kick like calf kick

#fightboss as requested. 😉

Your mate Nick is a legend, just call him Kato one day and see if he goes totally crazy?

How do one fight someone with a Mike Tyson/ Joe Frazier fighting style? Thank you!

I aim for the knee anyway (not that I get in any fights these days). Don’t care if they’re leaning back or not. It’s a big shock to most people when legs are introduced to the contest.

When I was in TKD at a tournament I once missed an axe kick and brought my heel down just above my opponents knee. After that the match was pretty one sided... Not saying it became part of my fight strategy in future fights. Well, maybe it did...

Nic gets his arse kicked every week😂😂😂

I think he's limping after that first one!

Leg kicks are great for tall guys who lean back. Especially when you time it for when they take a step forward. You can take that leg right out from under them.

2:06 Ok, #FightBoss, here's an idea 🧐: You have a lot of videos on escaping techniques. It could be useful, for a lot of people, to do a video or (even better) a series on escaping situations. Show people what to look for in an environment, should an escape be necessary, and how to initiate escapes at various levels of threat. I have a short list of elements that I look for, when considering how I might escape a situation and what could aid me in doing so. If that's not your area of expertise, that might be a good opportunity for a guest / cross-channel cooperation.

Comment #FIGHTBOSS Thanks!

RIP Nick's knees.

#Fightboss

Yes. Kick that knee. But try a front kick. 1) Faster. 2) Harder to see because it's not telegraphing like the back leg.

Kakushi geri (a taijustsu kick). Please pay him.

This one i already knew....lol

HashTagFightBoss

Say, that's a good idea. I had that problem when I was in high school. A bully who was taller than I wanted to fight me in the boys' room. I didn't have a chance because his arms and legs were longer than mine, and I couldn't reach him, but he could reach me, and I got a bloody nose out of the deal. If I had thought of those kicking moves, maybe I would have had a chance at least to get a couple of blows in.

#FIGHTBOSS

If the knee is locked straight-you kick straight in and hyperextend the joint. if the knee is bent you sweep from the side and kick the knee cap right off his leg like a soccer ball. But realize, this is a hospital visit for your attacker and the biggest threat of assualt is our legal system.

Deem gerk not a stomp and sidekick much longer....

I'ma train this with my ladder. My ladder won't feel the pain of my kicks. Or stamps.#fightboss

Do a nice kick with a twist, and strike with just the heel, for extra bonus points (and possibly an excessive assault charge for breaking their kneecap!) 🤣 In all seriousness though, I like to aim for the cutaneous femoral nerve with a hard switch kick to the center/middle of the thigh as well. Though a quick pop to the knee or a stamp on the upper/center section of the foot works great too to bring their torso back in range. 👍 Great advice here Doc!

HAHAHAHAH! THANKS!

Isn't it easier just to perform an inside low kick to the front leg?Easy to offbalance or even cause an injury to an opponent.

Kick in the groin is far more effective. It will bring him down to size. 😂

Or you can just do a foot stomp to his lead foot and then throw your kick or leg sweep.

Uh... Yeah. The knee. 🥚🥚

Can’t you do permanent damage to the persons knee?

If you have done kick-boxing this doesn’t work as you lift you leg and change your weight to the other leg but good advice if you are a novice.

Quite sure this is a Savate technique

Same way mike tyson fought tall guys.

Stay Violent ✊🙏

Jon Jones aprove this .

If you can't run, perhaps rush them with your hands out to their face. Push them over. The body is a lever. Dogs fight by rushing in with mouth wide open. I think there's a lot of BS in martial arts. People who do them may be looking for a chance to use them. That can bring trouble to you. Kicking may throw you off balance. "Taking the fight to them." Wrong wrong wrong. Their eyes should be the first target. Even if you don't make contact, their reflex is to pull back.

Muay Thai kick is okay too

Camera guy needs some work. Did if he talking about kicks then you should focus on, I don't know, the legs maybe?

Can’t see the kicks to the shins Cameraman/woman

Thank you 🙏 now I know to lean back and not leave my knees out like that 🤔

The simplest fix would be to not street fight in the first place

Do it right, you can blow out the knee, the fight is over very quickly, but you could have caused internal damage to your opponent's knee that will need surgical repair.

this is how you get counter punched so easily stepping forwards with head still on the centre line, chin up and with a floppy open guard = KO if they move back and then spring forwards with a right punch (one of the most basic counter punches for boxing) then you walk straight into their right hand and go to sleep, maybe die learn how to throw a Thai inside low kick (head moves of the centre line where its protected) and you will be able to take out the leg without the risk even a karate side kick to the knee will be better than this because you have a closed stance and so your left shoulder protects you from their power hand so many actually good options you could be doing rather than this

I am having a problem looking passed the skinny jeans …looks like those legs should hang out of a nest I’ll assume he’s a strong bird …

🇦🇺❤️🇦🇺

Bruce Lee was doing this 50 years ago

I hope his demo partner is getting danger money?

These ‘streetlights’ don’t exist in Uk.

Stomp the knee sounds like a Ska song.

Just use bullets
