Dorian Beaupierre was once my sparring partner. He was always more skillful and experienced than me. Yet a real humble and nice guy. Very tough and a hard worker though.
My son is a 1st Dan black belt in Taekwondo. His friend used to constantly taunt him, and at times sucker punched him from behind. One day, my lad snapped and bust the other kid's lip open.
LMAO you can see the "challenger" lost his confidence after that first hit knockdown. I'm a trained and experienced fighter (street and controlled) but I wouldn't be stupid enough to think I could take a Championship boxer at their own sport. Our man here learned a valuable life lesson.
Given your experience, maybe you might have an insight - why did he do it? How can people like him be so delusional? I mean, it's normal to overestimate ourselves which can be healthy, but that level is crazy.
@@TagW110 probably fought with regular untrained people who were a bit drunk at the time of the altercation anyway,that built up his confidence and made him feel completely indomitable.
"Thank you, Dr. Mark, for taking the time to share my story. I’m coach Dorian. I was a victim of bullying back in middle school, and I didn't want to take this situation lightly. Fresh from hip surgery, I was cautious and denied his demands to spar and train with him. I assume his ego was fueled, thinking I was afraid, which made him even more cocky. After our phone conversation, he decided to drive 60 minutes to my gym, trying to intimidate me. When he arrived, I was sitting behind my desk, and I stood up on my crutches, reiterating my refusal. But he didn't stop there; he called me a 'Kitty cat' and said I was backing down after he'd driven all that way. I was tempted to smack him, but instead, I handed him some gloves and invited him to meet me in the ring. That's the story."

The Bully came back! This time he was less arrogant but still a goofball. I tried working with him but he didn’t want it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vAKl4HUC7So.htmlsi=ifRwNiaxJTVDDB8f
Amen. That includes other animals too. You may know what you're capable of, but you don't know what the animal is capable of or what they are willing to do.
If you’re thinking about starting practicing a Combat sport learn what not to do from this guy. Walk in with a humble attitude. Don’t tell people you have experience if you don’t. They’ll know within 30 seconds. You can’t fake it. It takes at least a year to get good and a lifetime to master. And no matter how much experience you get, stay humble and willing to learn. It’s ok to not know something.
The humble man will climb to the top of mountain and stay there while fools dream of being at top while falling to the bottom. Thank you once again for another great lesson. Have a wonderful day.
He’s boxing like an old drunk. Guaranteed he’s Never fought anyone anywhere . 😂 You’re absolutely correct though, this does happen all over. I see this attitude, maybe not so aggressively, on the construction site all the time where beginners show up with a chip on their shoulder expecting to be the boss or at least be paid like one. They act like there’s nothing to learn from someone who’s been doing the work for over thirty years. Many think and act as if they are pros simply because they’ve seen a few RU-vid videos on a particular craft. It can be comical and frustrating at the same time..
That was humility, mercy, and demonstrable decency on the part of that coach. He didn’t have to do any of that, and he might’ve just saved crazy dude’s life from becoming a notch for the next wrong guy to challenge.
Over the Top bro! Great Vid, the kids in our gym would have put that guy in hospital.... So many great takeaways. Be humble would probably be way up, at the top.
He wanted a lesson? He got it, baby. Like Mark Twain said: "A man who picks a cat up by the tail learns a lesson he can learn no other way." You run up in a boxing gym demanding to spar someone on day one you ain't doing that shit twice.
the coach wasn't even going full speed or this guy would of really been hurt, he probably went through life intimidating everyone because most people would avoid a fight if they can and thought that's how easy real fights are
Also something that's an indicator of a guy who has boxed for a long time is the speed, the ease and the power of his hooks that at least for me took a very very long time to get down somewhat well and for me I still could improve. The trainer's hooks were fucking hard and even I'd go down as someone who's experienced in boxing, glad this guy got humbled.
He wanted "to be trained" cause he was everybody's Bish on the inside and that's why he has "anger issues"! Thought he'd get to take his frustrations out lol
@fight Science, you are totally true and great respect for that boxing coach. I wouldn't accept that delusional dude as a pupil unless he will act normal and respect the teacher/master. I laugh so hard at 2:43, a some sort of k feint with the left to body & lovely hit with the right on that dudes face. Thnx for sharing this insight & keep up your great work/vids. Cheers!
This crosses all sports, even non-contact sports like tennis, where a weekend warrior thinks he can beat a former pro, until he loses 6-0 in the first set and is gassed out.
absolutely brilliant narrative, this is my sport, the sport of kings,, Dorian Beaupierre was no slouch and showed all the right moves to deal with this fellow,, and I think you are correct, the world is full of delusion almost to the point where we as a species that appear to be de evolving,, cheers mate
First off... The coach lived up to the meaning of the word 'coach' in all the best ways here. His 'student' needed a reality check, and the coach provided it... not to wreck the man, but to humble him and re-calibrate his brain to a point where he can LEARN something useful from the experience. The man's fortunate he chose THAT coach to challenge... There are some coaches and boxers out there who would've absolutely smashed him for having the temerity to come in the gym and throw a disrespectful challenge down like that.
The classic fake, put a punch into the body to see his oppontents reaction, faked the second punch to the body, hands dip to protect, and over the top with a right hook. Beautiful
Unless he's completely drunk, I think most men who have ever put on boxing gloves even for a class or lesson and have some experience hitting a bag would pummel this dude.
I read the comments below. I see where some people are asking - "How did this guy make it through prison, jail?" His attitude and total delusion of his ability is what keeps him in trouble.
First time I saw this video, I was a bit shocked and thought the coach was being egotistical and disrespectful to the art, beating up on some guy with no training, but after hearing and seeing the back story, totally changed my tune and can see why the coach gave this thug a beat down. Much respect to Mr. Beaupierre!
Why anyone would want to go into a boxing gym or martial arts training facility and challenge coaches and athletes of the gym is beyond me ? A person is either inebriated, or has phycological issues.
"Had a fight with mickey mouse." Ha ha ha ha lol. Yes arye, there it is dude. I honestly thought the guy was bluffing for the first 30 seconds in the ring with the coach. I thought "Na, he's bluffing with those floppy and uncoordinated body punches and left stance. He's gonna unleash now, like the late great genius Muhammad Ali in the 8th round ropeadope against George foreman. He's bidding his time. He'll be all technical and planting lightning fast, hard hitting punches bang on the coaches chin, boom boom and the coach is clean out." Honestly that's what I thought. He was using deception. I was wrong, lol. Oh God, this guy clearly isn't very well mentally speaking. Great video. Thanks dude..
No way is this fool a streetfighter. Many years ago at my martial arts gym, (Lau Gar Kung Fu) we had a thug come to train. He had done a little karate but he was all aggresion and swagger. My master asked me to fight him, suposedly to asssss him but it was to teach him a short sharp lesson. I was born with short forearms, around 4" less than the norm and the guy actually laughed and mocked me when I stood. It took me four moves to leave him floored and unwilling to go on. Not because I was that good (I wasn't) but because he had nothing but a nasty attitude.
In the Marine Corps we had periodic boxing tournaments called Smokers. A friend of mine, who was a very experienced bar/street fighter signed up to fight a civilian amateur boxer. I'd grown up with a couple brothers who were Golden Gloves boxers and warned him against it. He declined my advice and ended up eating a steady diet of lightning fast leather until the boxer put him to sleep. Never stood a chance.
