​@@jarislameccThe master, d*mb@ss

[@smashonlamez]

jeff usually looking like the master in his sparring, but you can tell your old coach is a master in his own rights. I haven't seen you get swept so often in a long time. good stuff

[@MMAShredded]

OSS!

[@rickyjames4228]

Facts but you cant beat your master it just cant happen...... And yeah foot sweep galore love it lol

[@Idkchangethislater]

Yeah I was watching like “Ah, so that’s where he learnt that from”

[@jabawockeey]

He has the very thai-esque reflex of immediately kicking after feeling the contact of a receiving kick, always evens score

[@MMAShredded]

💯💯💯

[@DEATHSTROKExxxx]

I heard that you don’t always want to even the score, getting even opens you up to being countered.

[@AP2brolic]

@@DEATHSTROKExxxxincorrect

[@getmine9490]

@@AP2brolic of course it comes with a risk of getting countered, when you predictably do something there’s always a chance of getting countered.

[@AP2brolic]

@@getmine9490 nah he is traditional Muay Thai. You always wanna return to sender lol

[@JosueDominguez-g4z]

Your teacher’s legit; solid boxing, great foot sweeps, really solid knee strikes, and some great counter kicks to the legs. Would love to learn from this guy.👍🏾

[@MMAShredded]

Yeah he is awesome!!!

[@boxcar9407]

I was just going to comment on those sweeps. Best I have seen!

@@FredrickHoxinville this is the real question

[@valcanton1726]

he looks like a weightclass above you

[@TheFrozenOne777]

Its very clear where you got some of your technique. You both demonstrate that expertly. The flow, technicality, controlled aggression, and even the chemistry you two have made this an absolute joy to watch. Almost like fighting a mirror-image of yourself at times. Fascinating to watch you at work, as always Jeff!

[@MMAShredded]

Thanks so much :))

[@sukhoi1744]

When you and your buddy choose the same character in a fighting game Great sparring! I love the first vid with the coach, great to see a sequel.

As a Muay Thai beginner I am fascinated by all the beautiful techniques and the precise timing. Very humbling even after a good sparring round to see, how good you can get.

[@MMAShredded]

Thank you for watching !

[@JpocalypseHD]

I’m a beginner myself. We’ll both get better over time 💪.

[@schildknaap_van_gent]

it feels like watching 2 people dance in a way , you 2 are so good together , the paste , the rhythm , its feels so syncronized , like particles moving to a tune or frequence .

[@MMAShredded]

:)

[@LeoValencia-zo6pt]

Wow, his modified phily shell at the end was some high level defensive technique. Countering with legs kicks to throw off your balance is just beautiful to watch. I can see why you appreciate him as a coach. Plus he reads your combos better than anyone you sparred lately.

This is a beautiful high skill, high energy display of martial arts! The similarities of style and technique are easy to see. I've been training for 15 years and this was so fun to watch! It put many smiles on my face.

[@MMAShredded]

💪💪💪

[@satsukikorin]

Just based on this, I gotta hand it to the old master: he seems to read Jeff like a book and usually has 2 or 3 alternative countermoves queued up. His stability, his balance, is just wow, and his killshots (always launched with care and control) look devastating.

[@MMAShredded]

💪💪💪

[@zacharytaylor2676]

I got to say, I always respected Muay Thai Fighters. This style of combat always had a very threatening and brutal appearance and it seems I was right in that estimation, but there is also so much smarts behind it, like pulling someone towards you for a knee (5:23). Definitely I do not want to mess with one of you guys :) It is also nice to watch how you guys go at a good intensity but still being respectful so as not to hurt each other badly. This looks like a real great sparring!

[@hortinus]

0:10 Oooohh eeeee heee, coach made you do the 'Billie Jean.' 😂😂😂

[@adrianjason13]

Amazing sparring and breakdown Jeff. Glad to see former students linking up with their earlier mentors and showing them they've improved and evolved. I notice both your styles aren't traditional Muay Thai though, I'd say they're more modernized or adapted to MMA applications especially the stance and guard.

[@MMAShredded]

Thanks man! And yeah definitely !

[@setyoaomiya7504]

He's your coach for a reason. Glad to see the root of your success is still kickin.

[@MMAShredded]

osss!!

[@lance-biggums]

I can definitely see the influence. He has a very fluid style. I think one difference is you take angles a lot more, whereas he likes to stand right in front and counter.

[@MMAShredded]

Yeah he is a tank! I need to move around more 😂

[@outlawx720]

Your teacher is a menace with those knees!! A thing of beauty

[@MMAShredded]

💪💪💪

[@MobaCry]

Hello Jeff, I have a question please : We usually don't trow knees that way in sparring, we usually hit with the side of the quadriceps or just show the knee but don't touch, because of ribs injuries. Don't you think the way you guys were throwing could lead to long lasting ribs injury? Did that happen before?

[@MMAShredded]

We were controlled so it isn’t a big risk for us

[@testales]

Very impressive to have such an intense sparring without actually hurting each other.

[@fl_krake2874]

Great video I look forward to coming to your seminar in Chicago.I actually started training because of your videos I’m 15 and just had my first fight I have definitely learned a lot from you

[@alouiciousjackson5812]

When you boxed it seemed to give him some trouble. On the other hand, the long knees and sweeps seemed to give you some trouble. I think you would both do well to work out together regularly. If you got good at those knees it would be an asset, also I wonder if more teeps would pay off against him(?). Good stuff.

[@MMAShredded]

Cheers! Maybe I can throw more!

[@Vega_Sports]

I know I was born for this sport. It was such a natural feeling for me to kick. Spinning kick, straight kicks, question mark kicks. It all came so easy. Wish I had someone to put me into Muay Thai when I was young. 😢

That was street fighter Ryu vs Ryu 😂 I've been following you for several years by now... Your sparring analysis are so professionally presented, technically clear, emotionally controlled, clearly shooted.... A great learning and inspiration source. Just one question for you: how to use heavy bag training to shorten the gap for lack of sparring (you known, bags don't hit back) thanks in advance for your ideas on this.

[@MMAShredded]

Thanks man!! Heavy bag is great for practicing technique , power , cardio, flow and rhythm. To use it to improve sparring you really need to visualize and practice defending strikes
