[@nicaraguannightmare1]

Duke is the real deal.Great instructions.

[@rorymarkham1025]

Genius. Such a blessing to have experienced this masters tutelage first hand. Osu

[@bragehensley9057]

Good fundamental start of how and why to break up your cadences. Enjoyed

[@KJArmour]

He has so much knowledge and techniques

[@benjackson1506]

It doesn't take any skill to kick someone in the legs -duke roufus

[@jasonvoorhees6416]

you know Duke and Rick never talk about each other or are seen together anymore like the old days. I wonder if they are on the outs.

[@earlwimberley2509]

u dont kno wat ur talkin bout

[@tokr72]

That was his initial reaction directly after his brother lost to a Thai fighter... in the first American match between the two styles of Kick Boxing and Muay Thai. He then decided to go over there and learn it. Became a champion. Context

[@lesantone3082]

you sound like a woman lol

[@omegasquad868]

that is incorrect there were many American kickboxers vs Muay Thai fighters before this

[@ernestocastorena7917]

. . .was practicing left teep to wheel kick, slap and heel distance. . with force and accuracy!!

[@marsoc0326]

Absolutely amazing great insight and explanation:)

[@KillDozer44]

I cant get over what roofus said about low kicks a while ago was so ignorant now hes obssesed with them !

[@MJJensen6789r]

I absolutely love this.

[@olab7781]

Great video

[@X-2136]

I'm a lefty but when I started training in Martial arts everything I learned was right handed. Then I started training in Muay Thai everything my instructor taught me was left handed because I told him that I am a lefty so as far as thai boxing I'm a lefty and in everything else I'm ambidextrous.

[@X-2136]

It's just a comment why would it matter that much to you.

[@X-2136]

In this clip Duke says that he knows a lot about lefties and how to use what he's teaching if a person is a lefty. Towards the end of the clip

[@MJJensen6789r]

Benjamin Jonathan I believe many schools emphasize training right handed. Why? I don't know, because it's easier, or because most of us are right handed. It would be ignorant to not work on your weaknesses. In an odd way I'm guessing that all worked out for you. You are better either way aren't you. I love what I'm seeing here. I'm 53 and happy to say I'm a new student all over again. BJ Penn once told me "Never give up" thanks to Duke Roufus, and programs like this, I never will.

[@X-2136]

That's awesome that you work with Duke Rufus. I am actually planning on going to Rufusport for the fitness program this Summer just to lose weight. I already have a martial arts school to that I love going to.

[@darthclone7]

Benjamin Jonathan nice there's been alot of successful southpaws lately.. I don't know why you should train orthodox when your lefty.. it's a bigger advantage being a southpaw.

[@akash_goel]

I don't know much, but the jab order for the first two kick combos seem wrong. He does a left-right-rightkick combo, which would involve a recoil before engaging the right leg. Shouldn't the order be similar to that in boxing, as in left-right-left or vice-versa?

[@AtomicKinetic12]

Akash Goel The left right RIGHT is a hidden attack. It is meant to sneak the right kick in since, as you said yourself, most fighters are expecting the back and forth side to side attack. You need to remember to break your rhythm from time to time in order to catch your opponent off guard. The left right RIGHT is very effective when done after you've already established the left right LEFT. You also don't need to recoil for the last right kick. You can flow through from your right punch right into the kick.

[@akash_goel]

Got it, thanks.

[@mikimiyazaki]

Akash Goel if you dont know much than how would you know whether a world champion fighter is wrong about the techniques there teaching?

[@jjjfffppp]

where can i buy striking formula book?

[@anthonyblewis]

Thx again man subbed

[@EnsoLLC]

thank you!

[@jasonvoorhees6416]

Anyone know why rick and Duke are not together as a brother teams?

[@beneofficial2855]

🔥

[@RVBOY2]

Hurt in a Cair, call William Mattar.

[@RWBU]

anybody else feel this is kinda simple stuff for a high level striking coach :(

[@treroney4720]

Duke doesn't specialize in teaching anything unorthodox or mind-blowing, more so just being incredibly fundamentally sound like Niecky Holzken or Joseph Valtilini. I think Duane Ludwig is more your speed my friend. ☺

[@RWBU]

Thank you

[@rickw7903]

Gotta get the basics right first.

[@moo3992]

He is going over some basics dummy. Wtf?

[@KrikZ32]

If you're trying to learn high-level striking, youtube probably isn't the way

[@tubadude07]

Heard some bad things about Roufus sport with the whole Dennis Munson thing. I hope its just hersay and people whining

[@GregoryCunningham]

GlassMetropolis Could be, but more likely it's just a bunch of ego cases. Some fighters hate it when they're told something they do sucks.

[@rickw7903]

Like what?

[@mark1983peace]

Get crispy with your livers

[@rickw7903]

Lol...I didnt catch that the first time. I was just half listening. Crispy with your livers : ) gotta love it!

[@joshlundy78]

Nice.

[@joeyyoung5691]

awesome stuff-knowledge is power they say this knowledge def is send me your fornulas and il apply them thanx

[@k9feces]

CM Punk skipped this lesson

[@seansnipes8334]

LMFAO

[@rickw7903]

I think he only trained a few months. What do you expect from a punk : )

[@nuphanmanivong5137]

The only thing he can teach you is that it doesn't take skill to kick someone in the leg.

[@rickw7903]

Actually, it really doesnt take a lot.

[@sitthapromwasphornsaran5736]

It doesn't take talents to do leg kicks, remember? Eat those stupid words?

[@jaydabbott965]

That middle kick Duke is throwing is way way wrong. He is to close to his opponent and the the kick he is throwing is coming upward into the elbow instead across the forearm or body shoving his opponents elbow into his own rib cage. The knee strike is was a horrible demonstration. He does touch on techniques that are good, but he does not have a full understanding of it yet. There is a science to it and he's just now trying to figure it out, but has a long ways to go.

[@jaydabbott965]

***** You are very intelligent sir!

[@Rankor]

Hahaha....

[@Wick410]

Did you just say that a former world kickboxing champion doesn't know what he's doing? You do know that one of his students is Anthony Pettis the lightweight UFC champion. Trust me Duke knows more that we will ever know but I'm sure due to his age and years of fighting he doesn't look perfect throwing kicks these days

[@Wick410]

He by the way was known for being unathletic and beating people with technique so I'm just saying bro

[@Wick410]

One last question troll, how does a multiple world champion have a long way to go?

[@marsoc0326]

Absolutely amazing great insight and explanation:)
