[@receptieletoile7595]

Ernesto Hoost is pronounced as HOST, not "Hoost". So HOOST sounds like TOAST or ghost, most or roast. In Nederlands (Dutch) a double O is pronounced as a LONG O. To get the sound of "boost" or "roost" you add an E after the O. (voet = foot and voetbal = football) I am telling you this as I have been mega annoyed at "professionals" messing up Ernesto's name. GET IT RIGHT!!!

[@TheModernMartialArtist]

@@receptieletoile7595 Yes I know, but since the announcers and commentators pronounced it oo for so long and since he never complained when interviewers said it with the oo I figured it was easier to go with the more well known variation and also that he didn't care about it.

To be honest that's no completely accurate. He also used his kicks to set up his new found skill. He had people messed up waiting on the 3 strikes and kick pattern with the kick and three strike pattern. The worst was when you backed away giving him room to get maximum velocity on the leg kick. I was taken to emergency two times just watching him do that..

[@renerene852]

His low kick is a signature style form the gym he trained at . Vos gym in Amsterdam. All fighters that came out of that gym in the 1990 /99 era had this style trained into you day in day out and it was a matter of pride of how hard your lower legs could kick and take a kick .

Aerts and Hoost were the biggest pioneers in the field, being the first to apply the kickbox strategy and optimizing themselves towards other types of fighters. Bonjasky, Schilt and most of the others are 'just' 2nd gen successors. Also: after his 4th K1 win, Hoost had some physical issues and had to cope with the loss of his brother during some crucial k1 tournaments. He had quite a losing streak in that year.

I’m from Japan and I was teenager at his prime. He was called “Mr. Perfect” nor only by being strong.Look at his kicks, punches, combinations. All his movement is so sophisticated and it’s so much smooth & solid it can be on textbook. Thats why we called him “perfect” He was called by that name long before he start to dominate as a champion level. I like him but not a crazy fan of him, because of the perfection. My favorite fighter is more rough pumped up soulful kind of guys. And I’m not sure about this and no bad feeling about him but I think he start using steroids at the point he suddenly got bigger and powerful. He was skinny,tall & less power but accurate kind of fighter in his first era. Then suddenly his body got bigger(thicker) . After that ,the weakness was gone and then start to be a champion class contender You know , the whole body turns big in a little weird way and think when you do PEDs right? ....Like Barry Bonds, has changed since his younger days.

[@englishguy9680]

@@ひろぽん-c9x Yes a lot of fighters were using Steroids the organisers knew and permitted it. Which is a shame. Other than Hoost my favourites were Bonjasky, Ignashov, Kooklai and Musashi. You are right too, Hoost had great technique almost exactly like the textbook which was why I liked him. Similar to the reason why James Toney in my avatar is my favourite boxer as you watch him almost everything he did was straight from the textbook, I find it very satisfying to watch.

I think the kick-boxing success of Hoost is due largely to great fight matching ... i.e. Hoost seems to be paired with a bunch of paper tigers (or fighters who look good on paper 'cause they're stats are impressive or made to look so). Hoost was active from 1983-2006 and none of his fighting clips have him up against Dennis Alexio ? or Don the Dragon Wilson ? com'on man, you're killing me over here. Most of the fighters look straight out of training camp; maybe up and comers had to pass Hoost first to become something, or someone and if they couldn't pass hoost, they they were never any good of a kick boxing anyhow. Good clips for discussion but ... nah.

Used to watch a lot of K-1. So impressive how his leg kicks would just leave the opponent barely able to stand by the 3rd round. He had consistent perfect technique. Beautiful to watch.

I would love to see a video on igor vovchanchyn, the way he just mowed people twice his size down with huge punches, even when he lost he was always entertaining (as seen in this Hoost video).

Rocky Marciano breakdown

[@kornelboyd154]

No lol

[@slave2blackpussy]

Pronounced "host". Like "most" or "roast", not like "hoof" or "goof". Give the guy some respect and correctly pronounce his name.

[@knownas2017]

Damn, I didn't know Sanji was a kick boxer.

[@LYLEWOLD]

he's brutal, and a hell of a sport. not a dirty shot or strike after an opponent went down.

[@NKHYS-c5l]

This is the classic example of "Practicing 1000 different techniques or practicing 1 technique 1000 times".

[@stoxxed]

Ultimate example : Netero

[@Tubes78]

Maybe MMA fighters can contact him for some advice. These kicks are becoming more important in the octagon.

[@armandopace9701]

Rob Kaman (the one who beat Mr perfect himself a couple of times, if I ain't wrong) next, please!!!

[@robin2754]

YES PLEASE

[@VanMartyVideo]

Rob Kaman, beat Mr Perfect in the early years of his career.. practice makes perfect;)

[@wsxtgbujm581]

Also mention that him only slightly lifting while checking low kicks ensures that the thickest hardest part of his shin meets the thinnest weakest part of his opponents.

[@ihavetubes]

He would knock out everyone in the UFC today if he was in his prime.

[@epistemologyphilosophy7791]

I would pay thousands to see Hoose Vs Adesanya

[@hepwo91222]

Nah, Bob Sapp owned him and Sapp wasn't that good, he was just big.

[@epistemologyphilosophy7791]

@@hepwo91222 “just big” dude walks around at sub 350 pounds and somehow he’s just big.

[@hepwo91222]

@James Lough Hoost was already a legendary kickboxer when he lost to Sapp. Sapp was the outsider, the sideshow. It would be like if Logan Paul actually beat Floyd Mayweather, well it's worse bc Mayweather is like 44 years old. Hoost was in his prime.

[@hepwo91222]

@James Lough I respect Hoost as one of the greatest kickboxers of all time, so maybe my criticism is more of the weaknesses in kickboxing than in Hoost himself. No untrained fighter can walk into boxing or UFC and beat the champ. I mean imagine Sapp vs Brock Lesner, Jon Jones, etc. Or in boxing, Tyson Fury or Anthony Joshua, Sapp would get pummelled.

[@ronp6100]

Ramon Dekkers or Rob Kaman would be great to do a breakdown of....2 legends💪🏻

[@jasontan5311]

Bod Sapp: Hold my steroids

[@garryjones1776]

Hoost was also roided, so it's just goes to show level of kickboxing

[@SpeedOfThought1111]

one of my favorite fighters with an interesting style is Genki Sudo that a lot of people probably don't know about

I would love to see you do an in-depth analysis of Anderson Silva.

[@ricoF71]

Subscribed! Please review more Hoost! Thx!

[@eltigre6222]

This channel helps me a lot using these techniques improving myself even more. Kudos to you! 👍🏼

[@nikysony]

He should be the real person that inspire capcom create Sagat. Insane.

[@lessthanpinochet]

I still can't believe Bob Sapp beat Hoost.

[@okramoffacebook1381]

8:36 That's Crocop on defense. Yeah, that happened too.

[@wonderrob3225]

Hoost comes in like he's gonna throw jab cross then whack! in the back of the leg!

[@therisingfighter2355]

WOW - What a legend! This guy will be remembered for centuries to come!

[@memevarg2530]

Is that Mark Hunt there at the beginning?
