@@ThePathsOfWisdomthese guys don’t do JKD. This is the problem. JKD has been so badly misrepresented and shown since Bruce Lee passed away most people have no idea what it is. The most prevalent idea being it’s a “mixed martial art” is completely false but that’s what Dan Inosanto pushed and “JKD concepts” was something he made that most people thing is representative of Bruce Lee’s JKD and it isn’t. There is no application of JKD principles in this video. No interception, directness, longest weapon to nearest target, strong side forward, absolutely nothing. Although boxing gloves, having pillows for hands makes things very difficult to do. If you want to learn about real JKD check out someone called Tommy Carruthers or IFO JKD. That’s his organisation. He was taught by Bruce’s first and last private student, Jesse Glover and Ted Wong, along with others. Also, Thomas Marx JKD is an instructor under Tommy and also has a channel, John Paul Daily is another instructor under Tommy, he is based in Mississippi and also has a channel. This isn’t JKD. But what they do is.

I lived in a sober living in California for about a year and some change. I had a housemate; an older gentleman name Ed. Ed trained Jeet Kune Do when he was younger and I have some experience kick boxing/mma. I tell you, sparring with Ed was a different experience than I was used to and he put some hurt on me! Ed recently passed away and hanging out with him while he was in the hospital was bittersweet and I'm just grateful I got to see him before he died. He was the homie for sure. Rest in Peace Edward. Love you brother. I can't wait to kick it again.

Just want to add, I was at Jeff's seminar where these sparring rounds took place. He isn't just a great fighter, he is also an incredible martial arts coach and teacher. The guy spent 6 hours training students, giving live demonstrations, and breakdown techniques, and afterwards went right into sparring! I think he took a water break and that was pretty much it!

What's the difference between this "way" and just normal kick/Thai boxing or MMA ?

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

@@JayzsMr Leading with strong side, more bladed stance. Square and bladed stance on inside. Half beat footwork and emphasis on interception are some things that are emphasized more in JKD. That’s in the kickboxing section. We also teach foul tactics like kicking the groin, finger jabs/gouges, head butts and weapon just to be safe. Muay Thai is great for shin kicks,elbows, knees and the clinch. Not known for footwork and head movement but many of the great Muay Thai fighters use boxing as well. This makes them more complete. It’s not about styles it’s about understanding body mechanics and motion. Hope this gives you clarity.

The constant sneaky ass side kicks are impressive, which is exactly reason I think the fact that you went as many rounds as you did while constantly getting blasted in the stomach(which, as we all know, really makes it hard to breathe consistently and efficiently) proves just how crazy your stamina truly is. Anyone can learn to run ten miles at their own pace with no external factors to worry about. Regulating your breathing under pressure and while being interrupted/winded by blows to the solar plexus is another thing entirely. People who can consistently pull that kind of thing off really deserve more credit than they get.

Jeet Kune Do was my first martial art. I learned it from James's Dad, Dino, back in the early 2000's. Had I not moved out of NY, I believe I would still be practicing it. I'm very happy to see both practitioners going hard but being technical. Your clinch, trips and footsweeps are very effective and is something that JKD could absorb. Conversely, the side kicks are one of JKD's bread and butter techniques that you could use in your arsenal. Great video. Keep up the good work!

[@MeiaLuaDeCompasso]

That's the crazy thing about JKD. My JKD coach (direct lineage to Dan Inosanto) would have your head on a pike if you used side kicks in heavy sparring and here you are calling a "bread and butter" technique (probably the best way to get your fangs ripped out). We also borrow heavily from Muay Thai, and I throw in a lot of capoeira (my first and favorite martial art) into my sparring. I honestly believe JKD is the best way to learn martial arts. You tailor it to you, learn and use what you want, and become the best fighter you can be.

[@HabitGat]

[@catitonavarro]

As a JKD guy who started learning back in the early 90s the first phases of learning was to experience and learn Western boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai then generally progressed into wrestling etc. We did do Wing Chun type flow drills etc but generally working it into different scenarios to learn how to flow and stick with your opponent and sparring was big and covered all ranges as well as situational training weapons or no weapons etc. It is important to learn from everyone in Jeet kune do that's why I think this video is a great one because people should learn from each other, it's the principles that matter not the style and the individual is more important than any style or system, it's just a name to get you across and then to be discarded, you are just yourself an individual not a practitioner of a certain style or system pure freedom.

[@MMAShredded]

cheers!

[@KhattaRapidus]

Although that's true in some senses. Remember the old saying. I fear not the man who has does a million punches, but the man who did one a million times. As a jack of all trades misses becoming elite at one art, but mediocre at many. Perhaps this is why most mma fighters stick to a handful of disciplines, not all of them. Just 2 or 3.

2:02 Yup! I used to think jkd was just "flashy wing chun with high kicks" purely based off of Bruce Lee's movies. Luckily I decided to study it for myself and jkd's "use what works from any style" brought me to MMA. Jkd helped me understand MMA better and MMA helped me understand Bruce's jkd better! I usually knew better than to refute something I hadn't studied, but for some reason I was in the "one style" mentality back then and only tried using wing chun.

@@shakirabdullah14 If you read the book you would know its not a martial art. Its a way of thinking. It borrows concepts from boxing, wing chun, fencing etc. basically everything you want to pick and choose and create style tailored to yourself.

[@qualitydag1]

Very nice flow between the two guys, especially when they bring in both hands and feet, really nice.

[@AndusDominae]

Jeet kune do IS MMA, really. It's not actually the martial art, but the philosophy behind it. Ie, no style is infallible, take what you can from whatever styles you can practice. The martial art itself had a totally different name no one ever remembers, and was based on among other things Muay Thai.

[@stranglestrong]

Y'all be throwing some lightning fast punches

Amazing speed and intensity from both…..and again inspiring. Will try to integrate some of the moves.

6:40 . I've been practicing this combo after watching your videos. It's sooo slick, and it allows for such good power in those leg kicks.

thanks man!!

Great combos.

[@AdrixnBrxwne]

I love this video. So many enthusiastic moments here. This motivated me to get better seeing you guys go at this for a whole day! Teddy gave me straight up little mac vibes and his side kicks were phenomenal, there is so much to learn from this video. Glad I'm subscribed to you 🥋🔥

this is such a legendary set. u guys just going at each other with even speed and force and neither one giving an inch 👍👏

[@Lieutenant_john_]

DAMN you’re at where I got trained in JKD! I’m surprised sifu james even allowed this to happen because in the past I don’t think he would’ve. I guess it’s good exposure. Usually the rules were very strict and had to throw the moves that were specific to JKD like straight leads, back fists, pendulum hook kicks, etc.

[@MMAShredded]

interesting...!

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

That’s not true. We never limit sparring that much.

[@jean4j_]

Isn't it a weird thing to limit one person's style for a JKD class though?

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

@@jean4j_ We never limit moves or tactics. So many students did other arts. They can try it in sparring. Who are you? Full name I want to look you up.

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

Plz let us know your full name. Want to look you up. So many students have karate boxing or Kb backgrounds. Moves are shared between arts. Comment is confusing and not true. Plz lmk who you are. Name and which location you were in.

[@TECoD6]

5:24 is what you taught us in a video of yours about the tactics of Bruce Lee. The Flick punch - Shuffle sidekick, in sparring session/fight it is a very effective kick.

Are side kicks allowed in Muay Thai or kickboxing because I barely see anyone throw it

Yall take senzu beans in between rounds?

[@kiwiramjet5625]

That’s easily the best sparring I’ve seen on the ‘Tube. Not just because you’re both technically good and have crazy good cardio, but also because it’s still what it started out as - respectful sparring not ego fighting. Nonetheless some of the most intense sparring I’ve seen… Much respect 🙏🏼

[@kiwiramjet5625]

@@MMAShredded big fan now man. I’m no special talent, but I’ve been doing MAs since the mid-Nineties (showing my age), with free-style jiu-jitsu when MMA was still Vale Tudo, then discovered Krav Maga and trained that for years. Recently, despite being older, wanted to improve the technical aspect of my fight-game and general fight IQ and have been doing Muay Thai. I got a lot out of this video especially, just to apply to my own training, so thank you.

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

💪👍

[@TheKensei777]

forgot what real martial arts looks like after only seeing small UFC clips. I know it says MMA in channel but this is real striking skill. Both really good

[@Bluesachwill]

Hey Jeff, great video once again. Just wanted to know whether you ever get cracked in hard sparring from a clean shot and feel the effects very soon after? To the chin for example

[@MMAShredded]

ive had a hurt jaw many times

[@NYMartialArtsAcademy]

Us all too lol. It’s not good for u. Technical sparring is better. We’ll do that as well.

[@zijiezhou4179]

This JKD guy looks more like full-contact karate. And his side kick is deadly. Jeff's takedown technique is efficient.

[@MMAShredded]

cheers!

[@charismavensacred5185]

The philosophical view of jkd is indeed amazing, you're expressing your own self in fight without sticking from any styles, coz that's how real fight goes.

[@MMAShredded]

thank you!!

[@chrisrowe6340]

There is no particular Jeet Kune Do style, it is supposed to be personal to each individual based on their strengths and weaknesses. Bruce used Wing Chun, boxing, kick boxing and fencing techniques because they were what he was predominantly trained and experienced in.

[@talk-no-jutsu7304]

For guys who can't tell, the guy in green gloves is JKD, you can tell by by the slight hands down guard and southpaw stance.

[@Smartion]

As someone that is fascinated by the different fighting styles, I found this really really interesting! Both fighters are exceptionally skilled.. and it made for a brilliant way to see how the two disciplines differ in a combat situation …thank you for the upload very good content indeed ⭐️🙏🏼⭐️
