Manhattan Muay Thai Rivalry: Fightland Specials 

Never trust a guy thats willing to just leave his dog...

Its probably just the editing but it looks like Arron had like a year of Muay Thai at best

What kind of a man leaves his dog?

Fightland explores the rivalry between two of New York City's greatest Muay Thai fighters Joseph Sampieri and Aaron Fisher in the weeks leading up to their highly anticipated first fight. Subscribe for more videos: bit.ly/Subscribe-to-Fightland

I just found your channel, and I love it! Super high production values and great story telling. Thanks for producing these vids!!!

I think the reason Aaron lost was because he tried doing it all on his own. It's Admirable but Joe was working with other top fighters, people he considers friends and family who are constantly forcing him to get better. It isn't just about finding the drive within yourself to fight, it's about ultimately accepting that you are only going to get so good on your own. Your team and family is what is gonna push yourself past your own limits and fears because you are no longer fighting for just you; you're fighting for something bigger than yourself.

All these butt hurts about a dog. Seems like buddy found more inner peace than fighting desire . The man did accept the challenge , respect that .

The standard of american Muay Thai is terrible

i could never leave my dog i know one day he'll get old and leave me all alone so now i spend every minute with him i rescued him from a bad life and we've never looked back. he's so gentle with my children and we all love him. It's wrong to leave your dog they are pack animals and your part of the pack

รู้สึกประทับใจตอนที่สวมมงคล ถอดมงคล ไหว้ครู ไหว้เวที เพราะนั่นแสดงให้เห็นว่านี่คือมวยไทยแท้ๆ

You lost me at "I left my dog".

I'm sorry, I was there & Fisher did not want to fight. Joe was there to fight. Respect to both guys, but that's the truth of it.

What I would say is this, you get different kinds of trainers. Those who train alongside their fighters, or maybe in between the classes, and those who keep fit but are imparting their knowledge. Clearly Aaron was the latter, especially for the fact that Joe was the one who initiated the fight. You just have to look at their bodies in the video. He took it because he was a proud warrior but obviously hadn't been training to fight. My point being is, just because you get out of fighting shape doesn't mean you don't know how to teach how to fight. Bragging rights for sure, but if I was him I would have asked for more training time and gone out to Thailand for 6 weeks to get properly ready. Anyway, respect to both guys. They both look knowledgeable and Joe was cool about it.

that was outstanding

really awesome, wish it could have been alitte longer though.

ขอบคุณครับที่ นับถือ ครู บาอาจารย์ รักจาก ไทย

Thanks you so much you like mauy thai .

7:51 Was that Freddie Roach?

พวกคุณสนใจมายไทยและเรียนรู้รายละเอียดต่างๆ อย่างเคารพ ชื่นชมครับ

I love this clip love Manhattan New york😍😍😍

Great segment thanks for uploading, I like the intro music mind telling me where I can get it and the title of the music. Thanks

the song is 'One More Lonely Night (Without Your love)'

Honestly I'd pass up both guys and join Cobons gym. A REAL Thai Champion ;-)

Respect to both fighters, alot of added pressure when your the head coah of a team

Wow, I'm glad you guys like and rehearse. The struggle that has taken place since ancient times. I practiced since childhood. Because most children in Thailand are taught martial arts from adults. Muay Thai is a very dangerous fight. Some are officially suspended. May be harmful to life # from Thailand

5 Rounds the original muaythai rule Respects ❤❤

Trained under Aaron and this guy is very knowledgeable about Muay Thai. Although I never trained under Joe, I hear he is also knowledgeable as well. These guys are the real deal.

Guy should of stayed and faced defeat.

Esta serie de video era una joya

thank for love muay thai

ผมคนไทย รู้สึกยินดีมากที่ดูทุกคนจริงจัง กับการฝึกฝน เรียนรู้มวยไทย ขอนุญาตแนะนำถ้าจะให้เข้าใจมวยไทยได้ลึกซึ้งทุกท่านควรเรียนรู้วัฒนธรรมไทยควบคู่กันไปด้วยครับ ขอให้สำเร็จครับผม

So much respect shown throughout this process then left before the results were read?? It sucks, but you gotta see it through to the end.

Guys, they seem like good knowledgeable coaches. For another authentic experience from real nak muays in NYC consider Cobans Thai camp. Living legend with mountains of fight IQ. (And he has four beautiful dogs)

I want that eat sleep teep shirt though

At the end of the day its about the Art, the sport. Its not, or should never be personal. We put our blood, sweat and soul into this. Its 1 love

Well there was one thing looking really good in this video. The Ring Girl :-)

ขอบคุณที่พวกคุณรักมวยไทย ผมคนไทยเห็นมวยไทยมาอยุ่ใน ต่างแดนดีใจสุดๆมวยไทยใช้ใด้ จริ่ง.

On a side note. cant expect much from someone who leaves his dog behind. leave your girl thats ok I guess but your dog??? No loyalty to the dog what do you think you are going to get being a human? Ok you lost, suck it up. Show respect stay till the end. Dont be a sore loser. No respect

YOOOO that ending killed me .... Aaron Fisher

So disrespectful to leave before the announcement.

สุดยอด

hats the song at the end? when the two top trainers fight?

Hey! How was Sampieri's brother allowed to ref their fight?!

Maybe it's just the camera work and the editing, but for two top trainers with so much experience, that we NOT very inspiring. And the music was lame.

i like muay thai , it is the best

Well come to thailand

thank you so much is like mauythai thank you againt.

Whats the name of the song during the fight?@fightland

Why not show the whole fight? considering it's vice I'm not surprised.

If anyone knows the song from the main event or the credits please Let me know.

are these guys really new yorks best fighters though? like what the hell.. you have so many people there and the level is that low???????

do one on team coban please its literally like 1-2 block from kings with a 5 time world champ

i love i love mauy thai

Beautiful Thai tattoos.

He said the "wat" respect!!!

they are nice muay thai fighter..

Seems like the most difficult thing for "western" fighters to take from TRUE Muay Thai is that there is no ego involved..... you train hard... and sometimes you win... and sometimes you lose.... that's the game.

anyone know the song? the jazz music playing in the background? if anyone knows what it is please help

What is the name of the romantic song played during both of them were fighting?

ภูมิใจที่ฝรั่งชอบมวยไทย

Ain't this the dude from that movie a prayer before dawn .

2 years and a half of muay thai training? what went wrong man? Now I'm thinking if I'm going to push through bangkok muay thai training. Taekwondo since I was 5 is not enough. I think I should stay in philippines and learn more boxing, kick boxing and bjj. and engage in local fight. I'm maybe at 30 but still have the spirit to train and fight. I'm going to die anyway. Somehow I enjoy my life doing the things that I love.

Looking for a great Thai gym in NY......

Ongjen Topic, anyone? Dear lord...

Im planning a trip to new york and wanna do Muay thai, but not from these guys jeez. Anyone know of actual muay thai gym in nyc?

Aaron didn’t fight lumpinee champs I highly doubt that most likely a lie He fought local tuk tuk drivers or easy opponents in Phuket

i went inside there one time

he talks a very big game about being in the ring with the very best.

มีการร่ายคาถาก่อนชกด้วย

Name of the songvwhrn they are figthing

he left to go find the dog he left behind

The worst you can do when you lost is just walk away! Really Disrespectful. No wonder. He left his dog after all...

มวยไทยมีทั้งศาสตร์และศิลป์ งดงามมีมนต์ขลัง

นี้แหละคับวิชากู้บ้านกู้เมือง มวยไทยสุดยอด

damn - was fisher not able to launch any offense whatsoever?

Anyone who leaves there dog will leave the ring before calls

I don't think he wanted to fight him?

ผมยังต่อยไม่เป็นเลย ต่อไปฝรั่งจะเก่งขึ้น สู้มวยไทยแท้ๆสบาย

You have to be INSANELY tough to do this.

Aaron is really good, dont let the video fool you. When a fight is turned into a scrap, the beauty and timing of Thai Boxing goes out the window, and you have a fight. I imagine both guys are high level for this area.

WTF!!! He left his dog!

still disrespectful to leave before the referee raises your opponents hands..

You have to believe Teachers are with you

ภูมิใจมากเลยคับที่มวยไทยทำให้คนได้รู้จักและชื่นชอบทั่วโลก

'Dog and wife lost. Reward for dog.'

This was "turrrble"

It's not the one who looks better on paper that wins...

Aaron, isn't that called bad sportsmanship.? Would you have walked off if you had won .?

I know I'm late but listen to your self one fight and all of a sudden a guy sucks. Lame Aaron fisher went on TUF and finished in the top 30 people. That takes skill. I study may thai. Not every fight is going to look like the way u want it to look. Its a big difference between talking about a fight and being in one.

no way these guys are top elite fighters of nyc... he said he went to muay thai for 2 yrs? bro u should of came back atleast pro, they look like ammie fighters

ในสมัยโบราณคนไทยสยามใช้มวยไทยในสงครามต่อสู้เพื่อรักษาบ้านเมือง จนประเทศไทยเป็นเอกราชมาจนถึงทุกวันนี้ แต่ต่อมาเมื่อไม่มีสงครามแล้ว คนไทยจึงพัฒนามาเป็นกีฬา

การฝึกมวยไทยที่ดีมีประสิทธ์ติดภาพต้องรู้จักป้องกันอาวุธคู่ต่อสู้แล้วตอบโต้ด้วยความเร็วและหนักแม่นยำในการโจมตีคู่ต่อสู้เพราะอาวุธหมัดเท้าเข่าศอกเตะล้วนเป็นอาวุธสามารถทำให้คู่ต่อสู้ถึงกับชีวิตถ้าถูกจุดสำคัญ

why are all these comments so cruel..

So Sik it's all Respect. Tuff as Fuck !!!!😤✌️😈

*Some facts about Kru Muay Association* The Kru Muay Association originated from the separation of the amateur Muay Thai from the professional Muay Thai. This division pursued the goal to have Muay Thai recognized as an Olympic discipline by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). A project that has not been successful until today. The officials of professional Muay Thai would like to have nothing to do with Kru Muay. For them this club is only a necessary evil. If you take a closer look, you will notice that all the so-called traditional teachers of the Kru Muay Thai Association have simply appointed each other as teachers and are now worshipped by wealthy foreigners once a year. The whole association is very political, but has less fighting competence than an average boxer in Rajadamnern Stadium or a Buakauw (who is a Cambodian and not a Thai by the way). Despite comprehensive state support, the Kru Muay Association still has no coherent teaching concept for traditional Muay Boran and Muay Thai is still not Olympic.

ชอบพวกเขารักษาวัฒนธรรมประเพณีไทยของเราไว้อย่างดีด้วย นับถือครับทุกๆท่านทุกๆค่ายมวยรักพวกคุณ

I'm fairly new at Muay Thai and I see so much tehnique flaws that my eyes bleed

Sounds like Aaron was a sore loser. Pay respects to the better fighter in front of everyone as you fought. Great fight Joe.

Hipster muay thai.

Gayest Thai fight ever. Trainer leaves the ring cuz he lost. Looked like he was scared to be hit. Looks like membership is about to drop. Not a good representation of the sport
