When your Opponent has the Arm Span of a GORILLA (breakdown) 

Freakishly long arms + unorthodox style = somebody who’s a pain to spar. He’s fast too. Nice job of problem solving, Jeff.

Goes to Thailand: "Ooh-wees" and "oo-eeys" every single spar since then.

“Woah my goodness” 😂

Mightier Mouse😱

This was some serious cerebral sparring.

Great video! Dealing with big guys that have a long reach can be very frustrating if they know how use their range properly. Thanks for another great video 🥊🙏

He has a crazy reach but he is also REALLY good and REALLY smart too! This is a tough one because he is relentless, comes in hard, and there isn't time to get him off balance. At first, I thought there was time but after watching it a second time, I truly think you did all that you could in that regard. Your footwork works amazingly well against his solid, tree-like rootedness:) Footwork response on your part is off the charts. This is also a perfect video to explain the benefits of committing training time to head movement. You are so surgical, in and out cleanly with speed but there is a lot of self-preservation going on which is something I love to see. It appears that you are both very familiar with how the other moves too. I am impressed as always. This was a tough one but you handled it so well and utilized so much, everything is intelligent and efficient. Rapid adaptation is another thing I love to see and you brought it. I am glad you have this guy, sometimes it is too easy for you haha.

Lethwei is specialized for short kings due to the headbutt which finally gives manlets an advantage vs the talloids, the headbutt has to land in the jaw so if your upper forehead is already by default at that height even better.

Those sneaki kicks are hard to put up with 'em. Interesting video and thank you jeff.

Jeff with another Banger🔥🔥

Best martial arts channel on RU-vid!

Great work as always.

The guys build is wild. He has the propotions of a caf in the UFC Games 😂

Good shit my dude. It's all about styles and adjusting. Great work!

thanks bro this content is very useful

awesome as usual

Excellent job. 🤙🤙🤙

Very good!!

Hello Jeff, I hope you're doing great! I actually plan my first vacation to Thailand ==> Phuket (plus some other smaller islands from there). I'm super excited. As someone who loves kickboxing I just cannot imagine doing a vacation in Thailand and A) not watch any muay thai fights in a stadium and B) have some sort of training and maybe even some (hopefully) friendly sparring just to experience/feel from first hand how the Thais are (skill, strength). I know they will ragdoll me (I did 4 years of boxing and kickboxing) but I'm just to curious for the experience. I always see them on youtube, but I want to have a personal impression of how good they are (what does it feel like to be kicked by them, how is their boxing, how nasty is their clinchwork). I guess you understand what I mean. I bet you have some recommendations for both of this? Thank you very much I just thought with your experience from travelling you have some solid tips👍

Thanks for sharing! I was wondering how to play your game with a taller opponent with a longer reach! 🙂

Sir, i have some questions regarding s&c programming. I am trying to make a 12 week program by myself but i am limited to a 8-10kg weight,and resistance band. What can be the exercises i can do for power block and what i can do for speed block?

Holy crap! Awesome video, guys! Great stuff. Thanks and keep it up! BR, M

I usually try to get in close by using footwork and then attack them with clinch. Then a footwork sweep or judo

Me watching Jeff’s videos religiously every Saturday until he drops the next retreat dates 😂

Why this Camera man sounding like Daniel Cormier?

Oooo wee, oooo wee, Oh my goodness!!

Oooweee man is back

Awesome. Nice of him going not too hard. I hate big buys who use their weight on purpose on smaller guys but when they face someone their size the go easy wtf

Awesome 👍💪

Not Gunna lie, that thumbnail really got me laughing

No more push kick. Why? Push kick deflect long arms

I got them gorilla arms, I’m not good but sometimes flicking the jab out from that range almost entirely shuts down their offense. Some people with good footwork and head movement can slip past, but it’s still really annoying for them to deal with. All my partners comment on my jab being annoying to deal with lol

He is a great challenge, brilliant to watch, and I wish your cameraman would be quite !🤫

How hard should I hit in sparing?(Not hard sparing).

What happened to the clinch master video?

That prof form looks so sluggish but he has so good reflexes and is so effectiv. Wow.hard to take a grasp on him. My nightmare opponent.

What size gloves do you use for sparring? Thinking about primo gloves but wondering what size I should get as I heard 16oz gloves are huge

As someone with long arms; this was educational aswell. :)

This guy is a nightmare Nothing crazy about his hands but its the way he uses them He blinds u with it to insert a surprise kick His kicks look very heavy Nightmare to spar cant even go into clinch to escape the long reach Then its knee festival n sweeps Impressive kick boxer n a miyao bb hell no !!! Lol Jeff again i could never thank you enough for uploading even the session where you facing a problem Merci beaucoup mon ami !!!

How tall is the bigger guy ?

What happen to the mma legends technique videos

The opponent should have acknowledged the naked head kick. Bad etiquette to counter off taking one your partner pulled since you're only awake because they're nice.

The guy recording 😂

OD spinning lariat

you know Jeff brother i was training for 2 years at my last gym, my coach keep saying he will put me to fight but never did, im very upset and went back to jiu jitsu for now because they always encourage to compete, i still want to have striking fight once Jeff, what do u think is best to do? im tired of switching teams as theyre all like this, just lazy. can i self sign up to tournaments withour corner?

Great

Watching this video I also wanted to spar appetite has opened

If you don’t have the cardio to do what Jeff is suggesting here, walk up to your opponent and rip at whatever you can. You will get hit, and you will have to counter, but this is the only thing that seems to work for old practitioners. If your opponent also has better cardio, then sorry you’re fucked lol Oh if they are taller than you and heavy set so the punches and kicks bounce off. Chop at their damn legs with kicks and don’t stop till they can’t walk. Cause nothing else will work.

Love the breakdown! Although I'm probably the guy with gorilla arms against most people... good to know though....lol

being Jeff's camera man is something to be envied

Topuria would have a field day with this dudes liver.

please do a tactics video of these UFC fighters: Micheal Page Sean O'Malley Illia Topuria Jack Della Maddalena

Do you film the video first then dub the voice in later?

the pfp : ⭐

Do you low kick with ankle or shin

This looks quite like white crane as his base. Did he mention that to you?

jeff how tall are you?

Ever noticed, that he is looking down at the weight distribution of yours and attacking the slow leg? He just thinks one move ahead. If you stop leaning, that you are doing all the time and is unbalancing you, then his low kicks hitting ya should stop too.Look for example at second 17 or second 14 or 4 minute 49 and then 1 minute 4 where he misses. I can imagine that it hurts, he mostly attacks the weakest spots of the leg. But you had some brilliant moves too, like when you restrained his arm in minute 4 or followed after unbalancing in the same direction that he is unbalanced like 6 minute 41.

👍

Honestly some of the hardest people to spar haha

Your camera man wouldn't stop the "owey" thing

666K subs! 👍🏼

wow nice

After watching this, i feel i can now beat Jhon Jones!!!

slow it down by grudging

Nice pocket game Sir...

i was just curious cause you looked so stressed out at the thumbnail.🤣

Hell yeah, now i can spar Jon jones with cejudo arms

Bruce Lee vs Chuck Norris

I used to train Jiu Jitsu with Ali, he’s AWESOME.

oooweeee

FIRST

First

Sloppy punching by both.

Orgatangs seem to be evolving pretty rapidly.

holy shit man, you keep sparring people like this your gonna be best rules are ment to be broken, what is possible, what works, what is outside of the box?

This is why you should never spar a Silverback...

Alex definitely has good limbs to close distance each time

The oh wees are annoying. Hate this stupid trend.
