Matt Lindland - Dirty Boxing & Clean Wrestling In MMA

[@CoachMattLindland]

Great breakdown thanks for putting this all together

[@SonnyBrown]

Wow, Thanks Matt! Really appreciate the kind words and it has made my day to hear from you.

[@mubarkqardas46]

You were a great fighter. You deserved UFC Hall of Fame every real fighter and fan knows it. Your master classes vs Baroni in his prime were phenomenal.

[@ericr2617]

Upper body grappling, that's the stuff I like! Thank you! More like this would be awesome.

[@SonnyBrown]

Cheers! I got a few more coming.

[@GRPPLRJORDAN]

People call him boring but I think he had one of the most exciting styles. I try to incorporate his takedowns into my grappling

[@rafrokid79]

He was an annoyingly effective fighter, similar to askren actually, very hard to beat, ask fedor

[@SonnyBrown]

Annoyingly effective is not a bad way of putting it !

[@andrewferris4539]

Gaethje's low kicks in the clinch next, you know you want to bro :)

[@SonnyBrown]

That might just happen :)

[@ChipsterSwag]

Loooove the front headlock!

[@SonnyBrown]

Powerful front headlock !

[@jeffcraghead2304]

Great analysis. I love your channel and really enjoy the material that you have put together that shows the evolution of unarmed combat that we all have spent a lifetime trying to understand and master.

[@DedicatedSpartan]

Welcome back Sonny, I was just talking about Randy Couture's dirty boxing, more for me to practice, thank you.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks mate! Happy to help!

[@DedicatedSpartan]

@@SonnyBrown please do Randy Couture I'd be glad to break him down as well if you want to collab.

[@SonnyBrown]

@@DedicatedSpartan I already have 2 videos on Randy Couture! One on his dirty boxing and one on his clinch & cage takeodowns.

[@TakedownBreakdown]

That was great. Good research!

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks mate! Appreciate the support!

[@W67w]

Love this style of fighting.

[@SonnyBrown]

Me too! 🙏

[@Fabianlinnenfelser]

Have to admit. To my shame never heard of him before. Amazing mixed martial artist. Inspirational mix of styles.

[@SonnyBrown]

Glad to have introduced you to him! 🙏

[@adukill]

Sonny you rock brother. thanks for sharing and awesome content.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you!

[@samwelltayrlor]

Thanks Sonny always got the best videos 👍

[@Demonstormlord]

Excellent stuff! Might as well do one on Dan Henderson and complete the set. :-)

[@SonnyBrown]

Haha you are the second person today to suggest this .... It might have to happen.

[@RingaDingDinga]

Subbed on the first video I seen. It was one of the khabib ones. Really well done man.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks mate !!!

[@ugurkaraalioglu2813]

Aweome analysis , I want to see two analysis 1-lesnar-mir ufc 100 match 2-the Imanari roll

[@SonnyBrown]

They might be coming too :)

[@ugurkaraalioglu2813]

@@SonnyBrown who is has more power and top position control , about ground fighting (blaydes,stipe,Cain, Lesnar,)what are you thinking ?

[@SonnyBrown]

@@ugurkaraalioglu2813 Just at heavyweight? I guess it would be Cain , Lesnar may have had more power just because of his size.

[@jongrappler287]

excellent work sir!

[@SonnyBrown]

Thanks Jon!

[@markcorrigan3930]

Do an analisis of his book, dirty boxing

[@SonnyBrown]

I mentioned this in the description: Matt Lindland did actually release a book called "Dirty Boxing for Mixed Martial Arts: From Wrestling to Mixed Martial Arts" although it only has one chapter dedicated to dirty boxing techniques. The book really gets its name from the clothing line Matt had at the time called "Dirty Boxer". The majority of the book is focused on his wrestling style. With that being said as far as MMA wrestling books it does have to be one of the absolute best available and I would still highly recommend it if you can find it for a decent price.

[@markcorrigan3930]

Sonny Brown yea, i know. What i meant is that, is a guide for wrestling(including dirty boxing) in mma. What you seem to be doing in yout channell

[@SonnyBrown]

@@markcorrigan3930 I get you ! Btw Love the name as I am a big fan of Peep Show !

[@juandenz2008]

Thanks ! Very informative !!

[@SonnyBrown]

Glad you enjoyed !

[@oneguy7202]

Great breakdowns always, maybe make a video about Matt huges and how combine folkstyle wrestling with bjj

[@kallepikku4991]

Matt Hughes combined his amateur wrestling background with submission wrestling which he learned from his coach Pat Miletich. He never did bjj. He has mentioned these in numerous interviews. There was some strange rumour going around bjj circles for years that Hughes was "one of us", which was most likely started by Joe Rogan's off-handed comment that Hughes is "black belt level" fighter.

[@oneguy7202]

@@kallepikku4991 pat mieletich is a 2 degree bjj BB so huge learnt bjj not catch wrestling or Luta livre. But yes wrestling with submissions and guard are very close to Luta livre and bjj no gi should called Luta livre

[@kallepikku4991]

Miletich got that black belt years later as a extra marketing tool. Matt Hughes had fought already over 20 fights by then. Miletich himself has often called his style "wrestling with submissions" (he probably would've called it Catch wrestling if he knew the word exists). He didn't adhere to any of the principles of jiu-jitsu which were prevalent at the time such as guard pulling and "guard is neutral" ideology, opting instead always stay on top position, or if grounded try to get up as soon as possible instead of playing guard. Even after his black belt he immediately started calling it Miletich Jiu-jitsu (MJJ), to differentiate it from BJJ.

[@oneguy7202]

@@kallepikku4991 ohni doing know that do to you know his submission wrestling background

[@matheusfrota95]

Love your work, sir. As a Huge fan of wrestling and all these guys from team quest, I appreciate the work. Never been afford the opportunity of training wrestling, only bjj, but I'm a wrestler at heart.

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you!

[@sbag11]

Why have I just found this channel? These videos are awesome! Great narration and so cool to have relaxing music rather than some unbearable gangsta rap or devil rock. Subscribed!

[@kashaf619]

Sonny brown could you please breakdown Chris leben fighting style he is part of team quest

[@ubcroel4022]

Good shit, I shall allow you to post more in the discord

[@SonnyBrown]

Thank you very much !!!

[@therealturdferguson8355]

Almost identical to Fedor.

[@uncircumcisedcircus]

I was thinking something similar. Except fedor was dangerous in punching range. He would actually hurt guys before clinching them.

[@chirongodemperorof4127]

Astralians have the coolest accent.

[@agsantana]

His most effective technique: tap and then keep fighting (just to get tapped again).

[@Polarcupcheck]

I would have loved to see him fight Tito.

[@SonnyBrown]

🙏🙏🙏

[@ZWATER1]

👍

[@markcorrigan3930]

Is the channel still alive?

[@SonnyBrown]

Hi Mark, yes it will be. Spent the last few month finishing a university degree that needed to take priority but will be kicking things back into gear in Jan.

[@markcorrigan3930]

@@SonnyBrown Well done. College should always be priority.
