He's looking really crisp for such limited actual training

[@hard2hurt]

Yeah definitely not typical results.

[@aqdjbcr]

Ya prolly partially from soccer. I played soccer at a very high level and picked up Muay Thai quickly

[@dr.dylansgame5583]

@@aqdjbcr true man those kicks are something else theres a reason a kick got named the soccer kick and that kick if its to a downed opponents head is life threatning with the wind up if it fully connects

[@aqdjbcr]

Ya I think it’d kill someone if I soccer kicked em. I kick a soccer ball almost 80 mph. Couldn’t bring myself to ever do it

[@wabbagaming2184]

@@aqdjbcr It depends more on them than you. Do they know how to defend themselves or are they chin up, arms down, neck out on the ground. Bc the 2nd scenario would be fatal getting kicked by a 15 year old. The first scenario an amateur could take a kick from a world champion in the same weight class and be fine. Chin down, guard up, leaned in to shorten the acc of the kick, then roll with it as it lands. Doesnt take training to be deadly, it takes training to know how to defend.

[@RobKinneySouthpaw]

Young Mr Chan was like "dangit he really does keep the best tricks for himself"

[@hard2hurt]

He was starting to get the better of me I had to pull out some trickery.

[@terrybgoode]

Hell yeah, Blackie Chan. Sweet, humble dude, brain like a sponge! Looks like he's a pleasure to teach. I instructed a guy once who quickly picked up the nickname 'Sorry' because he'd apologise every damn time he hit you. Nicest dude in the world - too nice, really. But he was an athlete and used to play squash, which is super high-tension, rapid footwork inside a small space... so his leg kicks (bizarrely, especially his inside ones) were straight out of a Muay Thai gym. We'd just constantly hear a sound like a gunshot, then a meek and sincere, "Sorry," from across the hall. Sorry stopped training because his heart just wasn't in it; a shame, because he had the same natural instinct, physical gifts, and keen learning mind that Mr. Chan seems to have. Looking forward to seeing where this dude goes!

[@kingmuizz708]

Man sorry sounds so cool tho....he kinda sounds like me because I apologize a tonne whenever I do anything lmao

[@dexus3605]

Im prob not as gifted as Sorry but i have the same problem. Constantly feel like im gonna make someone mad if i connect. So insay sorry anytime i do. Then inget tagged lol. Im working on it though. I just tell anyone i spar to not be afraid to tell me if im going too hard or not hard enough for thier preferance.

[@terrybgoode]

@@kingmuizz708 He was genuinely a wonderful man and I miss him, and wish he'd kept training. It's no bad thing to have a heart, or empathy for others. :)

[@terrybgoode]

@@dexus3605 Haha, it's an easy trap to fall into when you're a good person! If you're working hard and striving to improve, you're not just a good person - but a great one waiting to happen. Keep at it!

Jose Aldo played a lot of soccer too and his leg kicks are legendary. May be something to it.

[@charchadonto]

Nah there is definetly something to it. Soccer matches are 1.5 hours with a 15 minute or so break inbetween. And for most of that time, you are running. or jogging. So not only endurance, but also sprinting But unlike most running sports. It is not just running in a straight line, you swivel, swerve. do hard brakes to run in another direction. This all places waay more pressure on your legs then just running a track. And that is just the running part and not kicking or blocking the ball with your legs and feet. and the occasional opponent.

[@hard2hurt]

Bone density!

[@PreacherLawson]

Bro I would LOVE to train at your gym

[@hard2hurt]

As a fellow streetbeefs fighter who uses this channel to train and just for entertainment it’s great to see him on here. Much love to streetbeefs and h2h 💪🏿

[@tomo2807]

This video is amazing it makes me genuinely happy, let Blackie become a regular on the channel!

[@hard2hurt]

I hope he does.

[@smcneal057]

Some people are naturally gifted fighters. They just need to refine their technique and they're good.

[@oliverwhisker-leon2834]

He is for sure, the technique seems like just comes naturally to him. I feel like his footwork is the only thing I saw in this vid that could use some work then he’d be very dangerous with his kicks. Although seeing how quickly he started applying the shifting weight and feet angle his kicks it wouldn’t take him much practice to get the footwork built in.

[@chill0314]

Awesome that you were able to get him in. He looks really willing to learn. And a fast learner too.

[@hard2hurt]

Extremely fast.

[@Han-nk3io]

Damn you got Blackie Chan on here

[@TheBiscuit501]

1) freaking awesome to see Blackie Chan on the channel! Been waiting for that one since his fight dropped on street beefs. 2) Hot damn Mike, that footwork combined with clean kicks is a work of art.

[@hard2hurt]

Question for Viewers: What is your favorite leg kick setup?

[@aonimsworld9106]

Liver shot - low kick

[@senormonke4579]

Pointing somewhere behind them, then kicking while they look away.

[@joe94c]

My most successful kicks were checking their leg kick and immediately following with a front/snap kick with the leg you checked with. Try not to even put your foot down, and if you do then literally tap the floor. People like to forget to defend after their kick is checked and leave their solar plexus open. Not your own leg kick set up but using theirs. Although you can't use it more than a 2 or 3 times in one round

[@rbimprovision22]

Right low kick to lead leg, feint right leg, right low kick to back leg while opponent is trying to check with the lead leg

[@jonirenicus9407]

Light low roundhouse, followed by heavy round house on the same side when they put their leg back down. I have a problem keeping my hands busy sometimes and get punched in between though, need more discipline.

[@letsgojake.4078]

Still cracking up over the name. Blackie Chan is the second best fighting name Ive heard. The best was a guy from MA whose real name I dont remember, but he fights as Name “Really Good at Fighting” Lastname.

[@Bassist-Beneath]

Bruce Leroy comes in as a close second

[@hard2hurt]

That's pretty funny.

[@Lord_of_the_Pies]

Alex "Bruce LeRoy" caceres haha

[@lucascastro2802]

was he really good at fighting?

[@letsgojake.4078]

Of course. Youre not just allowed to lie with your nickname. Its in the rules. That being said, why hasnt Wanderlei Silva been arrested?

[@JEM-fo6rs]

Side note I love how Blackie Chan uses the exchange steps… very natural and fluid.

[@MrIsles192]

Im guessing its his soccer background, him being shorter will probably end up being more agile.

[@JEM-fo6rs]

@@MrIsles192 I don’t know much about soccer but he’s definitely effective with it👊🏾

[@Connman90]

@@MrIsles192 As a taller guy who plays soccer, you are spot on. The advantage short guys have in soccer is their low center of gravity, being able to change directions on a dime, and being able to adjust their feet faster with shorter quicker steps.

[@scout3058]

Awesome video. Thanks to both you and Blackie Chan, for you having him on and for him being humble (checking his ego at the door) enough to let us all see him in "noob mode."

[@hard2hurt]

He was definitely "empty cup" mentality all weekend... just trying to soak up whatever we were doing.

9:52 i love the creativity with the low inverted round kick and hook kick

[@DavidRealMusic]

In Muy Thai the proper response to a leg kick is a teep (push kick). When people start playing all those leg kick games teep them off their feet a few times. Their leg kicks will slow way down.

This a great story to follow. Seems like a great dude as well as a big talent with big potential. 👍

[@supremoluminary]

The “weight dash“ or whatever you call it is built upon the concept of altering your timing. Once you have your opponent raising his leg in anticipation for your kick that didn’t come, you have successfully controlled your opponent. Many things you can do. You can teep and they will fall down. You can kick their standing leg (my favorite) and they will fall down. You can wait for them to put the leg back down and start to regain their balance on both feet and kick to the body. Superman punch, etc., many things you can do. When your opponent reacts in anticipation to your pattern, you are in control!

[@Lumbeelegend]
