Here is a match that took place in 2012 China that involves Muay Thai legend Saenchai. Saenchai, also know as Saenchai Sor. Kingstar and Suphachai Saenpong took on a Sanda champion by the name of JChao Li Dao. Let's watch and see the legend of Saenchai at work. Let's see how he slowly dismantles his opponent (who is very formidable, btw). So many great lessons in fight tactics, timing, and combos. Also, we have the legendary Saenchai breakdancer kick that he always throws. In any case, let's watch, learn and have a good time doing some commentary. Let us know what you saw!

Submit your favorite Saenchai matches for us to analyze. The earlier the matches the better, since we love promoting more underground stuff! Also, I'm probably going to look at some of Saenchai's losses to see what those opponents exploited. More to come!

Saenchai doesn't usually have that serious-look on his face when matched with a weak opponent. He plays around a little, showboats some, and then eventually takes care of business. He seemed kinda' pissed about something.

@FightCommentary 3 года назад

Interesting!!

@justalurker3489 3 года назад

You're right, but this was in 2012, when Saenchai was 32 and still actively pursuing high level competition, he's mostly fought against foreign fighters in the Thai Fight promotion (funded by the Thai board of tourism) since late 2014 or early 2015. In 2012 he was still competing in Lumpinee and Rajadamnern (He actually fought in both within two months of this fight happening), now he plays around a little more.

It's pretty much the same as muay thai except they have more techniques like a spinning back fist, and various other kicks. Muay Thai doesn't incorporate a lot of fancy moves because it's fundamentals are solid and they would rather not encourage risky techniques. The most risky technique in Muay Thai is the spinning back elbow but the recovery time on that move is quick compared to something like a spinning back kick.

That’s a Saenchai master lesson in fighting right there. What a warrior. Sanda guy made a mistake of standing on one leg too much. I know he was defending his front leg from kicks, but he took away his own ability to move.

@elenchus 3 года назад

saenchai is so next level. his reaction time is so much faster, his athleticism is so much higher, and he's a very high IQ fighter that's setting opponents up from start to finish. Last I heard he was training with Firas Zahabi so potentially even jiujitsu won't save you against him in the future.

In an episode in Fight Quest when the hosts were in Thailand, the Muay Thai coach warned one of the hosts to be careful when jabbing. The reason was that person jabbing is at a risk of getting the jabbing arm lowered with an elbow from the other guy traveling back the path taken by the jab. This clip perfectly demonstrated that.

Muay Femurs OP

@kimurasquirrel 3 года назад

If you want to take a perfect example of a Sanda vs Muay Thai match. You have to look at Samkor vs Hanlei. However, when I say perfect, I mean its a great example of the negatives of both styles in a match up. Sanda matches tend to highly focus their point-scoring on takedowns. Where as Muay Thai fighters hope to land hard kicks in an effort to score points and win. In both match-ups, knock outs are still king. So that really isn't so much the difference. Granted we are talking about Samkor here... the left kick legend so he isn't a run of the mill Muay Thai fighter. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ML9BcLlU5as.html

From what I've been told, apparently in Thai culture it's considered rude to kick to the head during the first round. Sanda guy going straight for the head with his side kick (and it seemed like he used the bottom of his foot, which is even worse) was basically a "fuck you". Seemed like Saenchai took it up a notch the moment that happened... So, pro tip: If you're ever going to fight a Thai boxer from Thailand, do NOT kick them in the head, at least for the first round.
