Bro you're so humble. Like you praise so much your training partners that you forget about yourself. I bet out of all the people you sparred with, you for sure have the hardest kicks.

[@MMAShredded]

thanks Luigi :)

[@HeynowHeynowheynow]

Muay Femur is a lot like the style I use. I train Muay Thai for years but naturally my style is all about footwork and taking less damage. Very interesting and I have homework to do now thanks!

[@MMAShredded]

awesome! thanks for watching!

Jeff, as a Femur style fighter myself, I always enjoy these videos of yours the most.....clean exchanges of a technical nature are the best to acknowledge learning points from and to me, look the best stylistically 🙌

[@MMAShredded]

Thank you!!!

[@yengxiong8892]

This is my Favorite style of Muay Thai, stick and move, counter, setting up traps, lots of feints, being very elusive, loads of different combinations. Super Awesome!!! Have you done any seminars lately?

Yes, the video is so much smoother and easier to appreciate without the constant jittering. Thanks so much for the change! Nice sparring!

you notice this isnt a fitness student so jeff isnt trying to head kick or go hard. the better the fighter the more likely jeff will play sissy foot with them. but if this was a construction worker on his 4th month of taking classes 3 times a week. jeff would of tried to knock him out.

[@matefx]

Definitely a great and entertaining style... I've been around karate (traditional karate, not sport karate) since a child, and been training for like 6 years now. Im about to get a black belt (which doesnt mean ANYTHING, just to put some context). Around 6 months ago i really started getting interested in the combat sports type of training (i still practice karate tho) so i went to a thai gym near my house. crosstraining was pretty easy for me (at least the basics), just had to switch a bit my bladed low stance to a more squared and standing, which wasnt hard, the rest are details. Most of my partners are just tanks that stand still and take/give damage. Since i come from karate background im used to manage distance and timing (still trying my best to mantain the thai technique). i like trying counters and speedy "break ins". After watching lots of videos of technical thai i feel im this type of style, since i dont really like trading shots (im not a very skinny guy but im lacking some volume and mass to go berserk) so i use my capacities on moving, creating angles, react/counter on speed, get fast snap high kicks etc. Sometimes i get frustrated i cannot "stand and tank" or "trade" as heavily as my mates, but i think its way better to develop technique which in the long run will better your overall fighting game than just being a juggernaut, but thats my pov!!! Main thing is just keeping at it and get better with every training !! Thanks for the content as always Jeff!!

[@MMAShredded]

thanks for watching brother!! cheers!

[@SN-ym1sv]

You want to watch muay femur style fighters or people that also transitioned from karate or tkd: check out guys like Ignacio Caplonch, Raymond daniels, Wonderboy, superbon, Saenchai etc Im doing the opposite of you i train muay thai but love karate techniques and i go Southpaw in a bladed stance (i can fight in both stances cause im left handed) be a hybrid mate.. U just need to learn the weaknesses in everything u do and find a solution.. Also if u can't stand and trade u can still clinch.. Since i worked on my thai clinch a lot im not as scared when people go for the infight.. Hope that helps u good luck

[@matefx]

@@SN-ym1sv thanks for the reply! i know wonderboy from his karate origins and superbon/saenchai since they are thai icons (saenchai skills are just UNBELIEVABLE no matter what martial art/combat sport u come from u just gotta respect that man) but most def gonna check the others out! thanks for sharing names. back to topic; from my karate training i can also spar in both guards since we usually train both sides (i feel this is an advantage in some cases) but the coach at my thai gym usually tell me to respect my orthodox stance and dont switch much (i differ, it limits feints, counters, etc). on another hand i gotta admit im still newbie for clinch and going into the pocket/infight (as u call it) is still my weaknes, fear the heavy trading and naturally space myself from opponent gaining distance to "restart" the attacks. gotta improve on those weak points tho, thats the whole point! Im glad u find karate interesting specially coming from a combat sports background. Hope ur doing fine man :) !!! pleasure to trade words

[@matefx]

@@SN-ym1sv also just found out ignacio caplonch is argentinian, just like me :)

[@SN-ym1sv]

@@matefx i love it and the martial artist in me just wants to see the other striking styles too so me personally i enjoy when people from a karate background don't forget their roots when they transition to full contact.. I don't know what karate style u trained in but one of my trainer is a kyokushin black belt and man these dudes can trade too that might also help u.. I have a tip for not annoying your trainer that helped me: u do every drill EXACTLY like he wants it so no snap kicks, we are not switching stances or throw fancy point fight stuff... But when it comes to Sparring i fight exactly like i want but kinda listen to the commands he yells.. And after training talk to your trainer and tell him your ideas.. That helps a lot so the trainer doesn't feel disrespected.. Worked for me on most coaches

[@davidriverafitness]

Great video. Love the control and reflexes you both have.

[@MMAShredded]

Thanks !!

[@wisnuwardhana6004]

love this! Question, how do you anticipate your opponent trying to capitalize when you duck your head like that? I really like doing that in my sparring sessions too, but I worry so much about getting head kicked haha. Literally what happened at usman vs edwards.

[@MMAShredded]

I try to keep my distance when punching so I have more time to see whatever counter is coming. But you can get caught with anything yoh throw. You can get caught with a head kick from throwing a textbook jab or low kick. It’s just dependent on each fighters skill level

[@Uro_Boros]

[@MrRobertFarr]

I only went to Thai Boxing a few times. We, did some sparring and,to be honest the rules, were not clearly explained to me. I only knew kicks were allowed. So, our styles here in The UK are Wrestling and English Boxing. Because of English Boxing, I was trying to discredit the use of kicks, and in sparring caught the opponents leg, and mocked him in front of the class ! The coach, was like. I am not sure, who he was talking to. I think it was me. He said: 'Ha ha, what are you going to do now ?' And I am like : 'I am going to break his leg!' (To discredit Thai Boxing !) The Coach is like : "Go on then!" But, when, I went to kick the sparring partner. On his standing leg. To perhaps simulate, the leg break. Somehow, he knocked me down ! So, I would say, a Fun Merciful, Lazy and Scared Thai Boxer ! Maybe just a novice who only sparred once or twice with kicks and certainly not full contact yet. I am aged 43, so. I might never spar full contact Thai Boxing ever hopefully !

[@MrRobertFarr]

But in one Street Fight, the opponent was a Lethwei guy, when I was trying to be a Kickboxer aged 15 . In fact my intention was to box only in the ring, in an organised way but Boxing and Kick Boxing got me into a few Street Fights !

[@chrisbera7952]

Interesting. I came from a JKD group who also learned Muy Thai via Master Chai and Saekson Janjira. With the JKD foundation, I stayed on the outside, moved a lot, tried to hit and make the other guy miss very much like Muy Femur. My good friend and training partner both had had fights on the same card in LA and Kru Vut came up to us after the fight and said he was really impressed with how we fought, like real Muy Thai guys. I didn't really get it back then. But now finding out about the Muy Femur style, I get it. That's essentially how we fought.

[@rafaelc.8731]

Love the video Jeff! Generally my style is Muay Mat but I will change it up into more of a Muay Femur style here and there when fighting bigger/taller/heavier opponents since I personally prefer not to stand & bang with those kinds of fighters.

[@HMAWorldwide1]

Hey Jeff, great video again! I have a question for you. Do you ever keep track of your success to failure ratios during sparring? What I mean by that is when you are throwing punches and kicks, are you keeping track of the ones that would have done enough damage or considerable damage versus the ones you just throw for fun that really have no effect or reason? I am always curious about success to failure ratios, especially in sparring matches when it comes to high percentage skills and techniques vs lower ones. Thanks!

[@MMAShredded]

yes I do keep in track in my own mind what I feel would do significant damage and what wouldn't, but I don't really share that haha
