You definitely are the most fan/youtube interactive mma fighter out there💯🤙

How does Sweet T already have the beard back? He’s way just too manly for one person

[@Volted_Z]

Hey man when is your next fight? You need to kick some a** and get your winning ways back. Then your training videos will be more meaningful. (In my opinion)

[@SalmonKid7]

Love how wonderboy spars with different intensities for different partners. Shows even when making content he cares more about his partner getting good work in and feeling comfortable.

[@nicksalvatore5717]

Should always go at different pace and even different style with differing partners. it’s an opportunity to learn, not to see if you’re tough enough to survive a fight (although sparring that hard is necessary sometimes if you’ve never had a fight and are about to have one etc)

9:21 When you and your bro pick the same Tekken character. But seriously, the green kid has mad skills. If he takes it seriously, he could make it far in the fight world

[@SamK-99]

9:26 that was a nice spin hook kick. Kid got nice skills.

The hurt in his heart when he said he can't bounce lol

@George Washington Yes, but tf does this have to do with a Wonderboy video?

[@IrishTechnicalThinker]

Imagine before some MMA fights, the commission draws random attacks from a hat and the fight cannot be won in any other way apart from the attack that was drawn.

[@_Crunch]

Also it's crazy how WONDER BOY has a freakin KZbin channel we just get to be the fly on the wall we ALWAYS wanted to be,and he's probably reading this I can say you have the absolute best footwork in UFC history you put yourself in position to defend and attack absolutely perfectly at all times,outside of the Pettis(a fellow ninja) fight your almost always in control and your warrior spirit can never be broken and I study your stepping side and your 1-2 question mark kick while moving outside is an absolute the of art,I appreciate your aura and your understanding of martial arts UCE *check in bow*

[@jasonpettus4233]

Brother WB! You continue to impress! The skill, the care for teaching and building up your students, and just being a great man.

[@rabidpanda612]

I feel like this is actually really helpful for some of the younger guys. Like that dude just had to deal with wonderboy throwing counters for a whole round. That is a great learning experience for someone new.

[@nicksalvatore5717]

Man you guys are natural KZbinrs. Thank you for putting in the effort despite still being a full time martial arts teacher and pro fighter!

[@steshar2975]

I agree I was thinking the exact same thing I want one to board to know that I appreciate the time and effort they both put in him and sweet tea to make these videos they don't produce themselves lol

[@rillehogberg7060]

love to see that everybody seems to adapt and dont throw hard guess when you have a good teacher you learn to spar the right way.

[@thexbigxgreen]

I love how second nature it is for WB to he bouncing as he's fighting, you can see how he's absolutely _itching_ to bounce around when he's not allowed to 😂

[@niklasblixt3779]

It looked so good when he slipped a attack with only switching his stance. The timing to do thats crazy.

[@nicksalvatore5717]

If you’ve never tried it doing a switch kick to counter a leg kick, it’s surprisingly reliable if you already have the timing and ability to check/counter kicks I’ve only been able to use it for leg kicks though lol WB is a different beast

[@marcokazama3558]

Awesome I m gonna do the same next week with my student

[@4MarksMojo]

I 100% use that spin round kick from time to time. DEFINITELY messes with people's heads, doesn't hit hard, but it makes them think twice about where this kick will come from.

[@lordvoldemort3209]

The boy in the Green Shirt is pretty good aswell. 😃

Hey stephen, can you give advice and training tips on how to increase the speed of your kicks?

[@benjaminrichard7741]

Only spinning attacks was awesome haha

[@davekirby8228]

One of the best fights I have seen was a guy that wanted the better looking boxer to through more punches and get tired then he waved to the crowd and said myturn and he knocked out the nice looking point fighter. See amateur boxing has changed the style of boxing nowadays. Was Mike Tyson going for points wins. I don't mind wonderboy but I would have loved to have shown him some inside striking.

[@shahroznurullah3118]

the setup in that gym is sweet man

[@bifflowman2000]

Love ya, brother, but was very disappointed you didn’t show up for the Burns fight. That was a huge opportunity but no sense of urgency!

[@notoriousedits8190]

that backhand curl is hilarious haha

[@alexthegordonhighlander1159]

Great tunes!

[@Emcron]

maybe it's just my full-contact karate background, but I never really got into the bouncing thing despite >16yr of training. I end up doing a kind of half-bounce with my lead leg only, or a slide/shuffle, and when I do try to bounce, I just feel unstable and get winded faster...

[@billybutcher913]

Am I the only one who thinks Stephen looks like a perfect real life version of Scout from TF2 ?

[@mr.solodolo6818]

Moreeeeee

[@Cleverlyinsane2]

I like how it was easier for WB to fight while curling 10lbs than it was for him to fight without bouncing.

[@emc2332]

Getting the notification for this video made me think it was Tuesday 😂

[@fatjeezussouthtexasoutdoor5244]

WB just have away the secret to beat him......take his legs away, take his bounce away! The problem is getting close enough to do that and with WB that's almost impossible!!

[@sensam6155]

WB if you wanna learn how to fight without bouncing, go to the Netherlands and spend a month learning their kickboxing style

[@bblvrable]

I was really hoping for the two hands behind the back to get pulled. WB is probably one of the few people who could pull that off, but I wonder how many shots he'd still end up eating?

[@seanmma5771]

Let’s go wonderboy

[@PrometheusMonk]

WB, what about spinning punches and elbows!

[@elijahstark3663]

[@bjed21]

If you can't bounce just go light front foot high guard muay thai style.

[@pureawareness5444]

What’s the song at 7:58 ?

[@sludgiebear]

To me, a "backhand curl" is with the palm facing down to the ground (which is a much more difficult exercise). You failed bro 🥺. Tenacious D called: they want their song back. 😆I'm just joking, it was an entertaining video! Do you guys run challenges for your students? Perhaps not as wild and wacky as for these videos, but restricting technique etc during sparring could pose an interesting challenge for them. Perhaps a weekly/bi-weekly/monthly challenge (maybe like a tournament), where stakes are raised higher as each one progresses to the next round. It could be good if each time the stakes rise there's a practical point of learning to be had. So, you have your "tournament", celebrate it, but then end with teaching notes/lessons to take away. Or, more simply, perhaps just a weekly/bi-weekly technique or situational challenge. It could be a physical/practical challenge, or a theoretical one (examining UFC matches, street fights, etc ...or even a situation of your own invention). Could be cool for the students. It may also be worth considering live streaming them, or some of them, for the extra boost in exposure.

Does wonder boy respond bro
