This is real sparing. It is not about trying to hit hard --- it's about playing a game of chess with the opponent --- Superbon is studying here how to open up Rodtang, and Rodtang is studying how to move around Superbon, there are no injuries and everyone's fight IQ has gone up. Love it. Much respect. 💪🙏
True. Many ppl dunno how to spar especially when no expert and what is important is to focus on the technique without hitting hard and loose to much energy
Too bad Fairtex still hasn't learned to spar like this, they're still holding real fights in their own training center to act as sparring sessions, the fighters are going for head kicks in these spar fights wtf
Superbon is just a head kick finder. That chamber he executes and the way he's balanced and light on his feet guarantee he's ready to throw it. That time learning from Saenchai, trainer Gae, Buakaw, and Namsaknoi certainly helped.
I see two legends, I like 💪🏻 Big respect from europe and thank you for motivation. I'm doing Muay Thai 3 months now and I love it, you guys motivate me a lot, stay strong. Greetings 🙋🏻♂️💪🏻
Superbon is just a legend. Always enjoying himself and showing respect to everyone. Watching two of the best fighters of their generation playing around like this is super wholesome.
There's to consider that Thais tend to start really young and have many fights per year , which gives them the experience necessary to know how to handle themselves in a real fight; this is also why they don't spar hard (you would just end up gaining a lot of damage). Western fighters usually start later and in general don't get as many fights, so they tend to go for harder sparring to better prepare to when they fight full force on the ring
Rodtang is more impressive in a fight than in a sparring session. Because a fight he can showcase how tough he is. That a big attribute that you don't get in sparring.
Puts a smile on my face seeing my 2 favorite idols face off.sul sul na kap learned a lot following both of them each with their own technique and style.Both have strong heart.
Love seeing such playful, intelligent sparring. Next time, TAG TEAM sparring match and bring in Buakaw and Saenchai :p Superbon and Buakaw VS Saenchai and Rodtang
In wish I could spar like this everyday! In the Netherlands often people spar like it is a real fight. Big ego’s and often you don’t learn anything (but taking shots and cover up or just counter in the most effective way).
Superbon have to hold back much more due to his weapons are his kicks and they are much more powerfull than hitting. A real fight superbon would win fast. His kicks are to powerfull.
It’s funny how some guys who does hard sparring try to say that’s how you create champions and yet we don’t even know their names. And the Thais does soft sparring and they’re actually champions. This proves hard sparring doesn’t make you a better fighter.
Every time I go sparing with a new group I try and put this method of sparing in to practice but u will always have guys who whant to take your head off lol 😆 😅 so I stop them and say we go easy but after 30sec they drop 💣 then I give em a wake up call 😆 🤣 😂 the look on there face when u put a clean hit to the chin or liver with just enough power to drop em lol 😆 😅 😉 🤪
Mannn that looked fun. Great technical sparring while having fun. I was enjoying the high level fighting at the same time couldn’t stop laughing. That was awesome.
this is such a big contrast compared to how I've seen most westerners spar. these guys keep it light and playful, and not trying to kill the other guy.
