This woman is very skilled in her martial art but Im not sold on the effectiveness of chambered kicks for MMA. The kicks bazooka joe was using are typically more applicable and widley used for this reason

[@Georges-yu8sh]

To be fair, there's something known as powerful enough. A leg is still a leg. People KO people all the time with questions mark kicks and karate kicks. Mitch has a 6'3 frame and he's insanely powerful and weighs hundreds of pounds. He can KO anyone. It might be better to be faster and have his front and roundhouses chamber in a similar way to be trickier.

[@Roy-vh9rp]

Conclusion: don't kick.

[@im2goodm839]

A low leg kick is lethal, with very low risk.

[@espenstoro]

I like the half n half format with teaching both ways. Master vs novice from different perspectives.

[@emissary_kyle]

Eddie isn't likely to throw too many kicks in the fight. I think a huge weapon against him would be low kicks, a bladed stance isn't going to be too useful in a cage. Balance and mobility against takedowns is to risky unless you're like Wonderboy or Machida.

[@zGJungle]

That upchaining is some thing I have not heard of before, but it makes perfect sense, I have always had physical jobs but my current job requires lots of hand strength for the lifts, and it's made my whole upper body feel more powerful.

[@maxschmidt9461]

this is the first time anyone actually properly explained to me why less mobility is a good thing for strength athletes, thanks Mitch, I know you talked about it before but it didn't really make sense, but te stretch rebound(bounce) in the competition range absolutely makes sense. luckily as a more general athlete who also trains for physique development on the side I can actually use all the mobility and strength in all ranges since I never know in what position I have to be strong. But if you know your range it not only makes sense for specificity(which is why I used to think some full range acessories would be good) but having the rebound sure makes a big difference, not just for 1RM, but especially for reps so you don't loose as much strength and energy on each rep. only muscle I'd still train at very long lengths for some acessories are hamstrings, maybe biceps and chest, but not for mobility, but to strengthen the connevtive tissues and decrease the risk of tears, plu a fully stretched hamstring makes you weaker, so it probably isn't a big deal to have some extra mobility there and with almost straight knees the glutes and quads don't gain mobility anyway

Not sure how long you have to train for the fights but if it’s not that long I’d def focus most on punches and wrestling. There’s been UFC champions just from mastering those two things, like Khabib, Randy Coture, Rampage Jackson, Usman, Daniel Cormier and a few others. But if you have the time to prepare kicks are def a nice bonus and a weapon that can end a fight with one shot if you can get it up to the head and most well rounded pros have a nice kick.

[@bleromafia]

Solid technique for powerful low kicks and middle kicks, as well as checking them, are a must in this upcoming fight. It would be devastating to see if they'd get one-sidedly teared apart through low kicks.

[@Pilv11]

Khabib mastered punching? 😂

[@BeardOfPower7]

It's just a fun video idea. I don't see this as a true training session. Specifically training kicking without anything else isn't something you really want to do for MMA. You have to set the kick up for optimal effectiveness.

[@larrytate1657]

@@bleromafia I agree it’s important these days with pro mma fighters, but I believe with these strong men that cardio, punching and wrestling will be the story of the fight and whoever does those three things best will win imo.

I really like her. And, for you guys below who call her delusional, where is that coming from? She never said anything that in anyway insinuated that she could beat Mitchell in a fight. Put it in context. In the flow of the conversation it came to where she said that in certain positions that he demonstrated on her she could cause him discomfort with eye gouges, groin kicks, etc. And, she could if the opportunity presented itself. She fully knows that if Mitchell went at her in full anger and full force he could possibly kill her. She is an elite martial artist, and very talented but when it comes to landing blows for real it is silly even talking about this. I am a 200lb man who is in shape and can street fight because of my youth. I wouldn’t last 3 minutes against a very angry, determined Mitch Hooper. And, that includes 90 seconds of a feeling out period.

She is eastern philosophy where being humble is part of their makeup. And, there is a difference between humble and delusional. She felt that based on what he described she saw an opening, and felt she could capitalize on it. She never said she would take him out. And, she could take out a knee if Mitchell positioned himself as he demonstrated. Here it is. No one would sanction any combat activity at full effort between athletes with such a disparity in size.

In one gang rumble I faced up to a guy who was easily going to beat my ass because he was a very bad man with a history of devastation in the weekly gang fights around the Burroughs of NY. I had to stay out of the range of his bombs, so, out of instinct I used the teep, which worked beautifully. I didn’t know I could get such power with a kick that i never used, but that I was a natural at. It was now my jab. I kept the Goliath at a distance until his frustration (and, a colliding into the fighting masses gave me my break) forced a mistake and I put some ground and pound on him. He tapped in gang style, and it was over. We became friends, which, in the Burroughs at that time was rare between rival gangs; one white, one black.

[@ToTallTim..]

“Egg with a mustache” hahaha!

[@HaapaiTeUrioHau]

Once you get that rhythm you'd be a BEAST!!!

[@RGK147]

I have no doubt she could mess up alot of guys but she is delusionaly confident in her abilities to defend against someone your size

[@EgadsNo]

Rotate your hips for a turn kick (roundhouse) because not doing so will damage your hip socket over time. Power is not the concern.

[@thechristreturned]

Mr Hooper I still think you could have pulled 990lb easy in that competition... dude just sneaked past you the last minute. I guess you won overall? I will be following you closely because I think you are a legend in the making... and hey take care.

[@MrMartinSchou]

I'm genuinely surprised that stretching isn't a relatively standard thing to do for strongmen.

[@brusombear3823]

theres only one guy in the ufc who has done well with karate Mitch should learn wresling

[@zGJungle]

Going by the fact that Eddie still does his weird hobbit lean to the side thing and getting kicked in the head for it, I'd say it's worth learning at least a high kick.

[@Jafmanz]

Guy Mezger Frank Mir Gunnar Nelson Robert Whittaker Kyoji Horiguchi Bas Rutten ChuCk liddell Wonderboy George ST pierre Lyoto Machida maybe even Mcgregor..... OK not every single one was UFC but what does that matter. I swear you UFC casuals know less about MMA and more about shittalking...

[@frankb5728]

Lyoto Machida? Or do you mean Wonderboy?

[@Jafmanz]

I'm not interested in another debate about what style is best. I'm simply addressing the OP's comment He is wrong. That's all. Nothing less or more. why don't you tell us all the percentage...@@2ndPeterVBlack

[@frankb5728]

@@zGJungle Yeah.. he can't even lift up his arms high enough to protect himself. He's too muscle bound. His body is fighting against him. He's so fucking susceptible to kicks and all he has is a right hand that he chambers.

[@AndersMidtgaard]

I love videos like this, because they show that strength is a good base, the same with mobility, stability etc. but strength, mobility and speed etc. is sport specific. Like every other sports you have to practice it for years before you reach elite level. Even within just strength specific sports like arm wrestling, your don´t just become an elite level arm wrestler. The match between Devon Larratt and Thor showed this. And i know of alot of pretty strong people who think just because they are strong they can kick everybody's ass, and that is just not the case. With that being said i am pretty sure you would be able to manhandle her just using your strength. There is a reason men and women does not fight against each other and that there is weight classes.

[@aaronsimon2236]

What a great and provocative video title!

[@brusombear3823]

bruce lee said he fears not the man who has thrown 10,000 kicks but the man who has thrown 1 kick 10,000 times

[@thetreverpitts]

I love doing farmer carries with kettle

[@claudiomartinez7287]

Where is the fight goin to be streamed??

[@Anonymous-sb9rr]

The problem is, deadlift bars have too much knurling. If they were smooth at the part were your shins go it'd be fine.

[@joeysantoro4835]

The face you made after being told you had been roundhouse kicking is the exact face any self respecting human would have made. 3:15 love it

[@eefrose]

Squeaky wheel gets the grease!$$$💸💰

[@djbme83]

I am (was) a black belt in Taekwondo and groin and hip mobility really limited how good I was. I wish I would have stretched more as a kid.

[@hotcoldman9793]

She walked with double her weight or more that's pretty crazy!! 😮

[@pseudopetrus]

Mitch, stick with the bear hug!

[@theunknownsamurai7426]

Is it just me or does it seem he's not taking this seriously?

[@NOFOCKYOU]

he is taking it serious, and he will win easily vs Eddie.

[@vanessaruiz4705]

well, just to be fair, and dont get me wrong because I love eddie, he's got plenty of time to do so. Unlike Mitchell. @@2ndPeterVBlack

[@ermeriodsassperini]

​​@@vanessaruiz4705He did take the fight and he is getting paid for it, so prepping for the fight is part of the job. Instead of making these videos, he could be training with qualified instructors.

I could never stand behind a punching bag while mitch is throwing his meaty ass leg at it😂

[@fs3994]

Wouldn't be my choice of training partner if going up against a 400lb man.

[@CarlySB]

She would only be my choice if I was going to engage in semi-contact point fighting. Chambering kicks in MMA is something you only want to do very rarely indeed. There's a very good reason for Muay Thai being far more common than Taekwondo for anybody who is going to fight. It's a bit odd. I think this video is intended as a joke.
