THE BEST ADVICE ON FIGHTING AND VIOLENCE!!!

[@armanda5609]

PLEASE make a video on the personality things you talked about in more detail some time when you can. The mental side especially.

[@KWillo]

Ever since I followed your channel, you have been spot on and spoke on martial arts in a realistic aspect 90% of people either don't acknowledge or even know about.You have no idea how refreshing it is to see someone like you post actual facts about martial arts on youtube when so many others post the "cute" side of martial arts.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Kevin Williams: I was just getting ready to hit the "sack" for the night and I saw your comment. Thanks dude. As you know, I study people. That is what I do and my new book will cover (not martial arts :) It is on Psychological trauma and crime). Even though people are my thing, I still never get used to the BS. Your comment is a great way to cut off the lap top. Peace.

[@lsporter88]

I can't logically argue against any of this commentary. Great info.

[@konpoy]

Just so you know- I do go around recommending your channel to people I associate with within boxing and I am russian which obviously makes me white of culturally orthodox descent. If you want to be caught up in all that racial politics it's your prerogative. I am here because I think you are very insightful and detail oriented about fighting and you have an unorthodox point of view mixed with a lot of knowledge and experience. Just letting you know:) cheers!

[@flatbush305]

This is the realist video I ever watched. Thanks Brother.

[@maz1702]

This is one of the realest videos and sadly won't reach the same level of outreach as these fancy channels simply because most people have the wrong idea of self defense and haven't experienced it so they cater to a false reality of what fighting is

[@seandonnelly5272]

Wish I could like this video more than once. As always, great advice.

[@MiguelHernandez-rq2lk]

Thank you for your knowledge and sharing it, it meant a lot. Blessings be upon you and your family.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Miguel Hernandez: Thank YOU!

[@dsimon33871]

You are 100% about film... Love your channel! Bounced for years... You really have to develop good habits or you will get smashed... seen it happen so many times. The wall is your friend! Many guys I trained with were ex cons... Most of them 99% were loyal, protective and capable.

[@joescully6607]

Love the advice on Street-Smarts. Write them down , put it in a book; I'll be the first to buy. Ty for an important vid

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Joe Scully: Thanks Joe. Just stay as safe as possible dude. We can't afford to lose subscribers lol.

[@Wen1859]

This is one of the best videos you have put out. I like everything I watch from you. And you are right when I compare what you have to say to what others say you're more correct than the rest. This is coming from my 40-plus years of martial arts experience and Street Experience. And yes I am also about five seven and when I look back at how I have had to adjust and being heavier at 5 7 meant that I had to develop a tougher more effective strategy to close the gap and stay in that's just one example.

[@RandelOland901-ATT]

Thanks for answering my question, never thought of it like that. You are the best of the best. Actually I did send your videos to a martial arts KZbinr. I'll forward the email.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Randel Oland 901-ATT: Hey man, that is okay. Sometimes I just get a bit "pissed" . I am okay with the credit I get from you guys. I'm cool. I will just keep doing what I do and over the years, the words will speak for themselves.

[@KevinNRCMA]

Great video sir! I been lurking around this channel for a few months now. I found out about through precision striking. Highly valuable content I must say at least to me. Ive learned alot. Thank you.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Kevin Carter: Welcome!

[@Noalot1000]

Lot of cos are soft(I know thru being in the system)but they do see it all!! First hand! That's a great call!!

[@johnholmesjr4468]

Good to see someone keep it real

[@Yeetmaster_113]

Aye Man U the man all ur videos have helped me

[@beanieseagull8713]

Awesome video , would love more content on the physiological / personality aspect on fighting!

[@shaisolomon1059]

Hello sir! You speak the truth! You know your stuff to a T!

[@adilbundhoo3079]

Best advice indeed.

[@tjsmoove83]

much respect

[@Kalydosos]

I rewind at 24:08 several times so it sunk in so much to learn so little time to learn it in.

[@miskokinoo]

Good stuff to know. Thanks, Sayf!

[@anon2034]

Thank you for the content. 9:50 What is the name of the other chanel for the combatatives?

[@bassreeves1965]

Man you know your stuff!.

[@muhammad_wada]

As salaamu alaykum! I started watching your channel this week and there hasn’t been a single video I’ve seen except that I learned something new, despite my 20 years of training in various martial arts. THANK YOU! Did you ever launch the combatives channel?

[@adilbundhoo3079]

Brick City Combatives. kzbin.info/door/4sRRnxs2AX5mxNGG6lzphA Don't mind me, I just come back to that video, every now and then.

[@Noalot1000]

TheUmmahFightCamp everyone is good, grades are good,training and practices are good, health is good.......thanks for asking. Hope all is well with you and your family. Im looking forward to the new channel.

[@marielenamoreno1696]

Ummah do you think i can become a boxer at the age of 17 and go Professional?

[@yusuke1583]

Yo my guy that was deep still. I learnt a lot for example, with the teeth smile thing that was deep. One thing u said was being "5'7 was a blessing" could u explain how as im 5'7 and i would like to understand better?

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Anime Fab: Sure, being 5'7 forced me to put on a certain amount of bulk and at the same time, get real about what fighting was.

[@yusuke1583]

Interesting its true about get real about fighting but what do u mean by bulk?

[@complexblackness]

Anime fab Weight/size to be able to have some power when dealing with bigger guys. I'm 5'8 and guys our height if possible should get to a weight, that we can still move comfortably at, yet gives us a decent increase in power when it comes to punches, grappling etc. Also depending on how it looks on you, the size can make someone think twice about coming at you. Even though we are of a short height. That along with your Awareness/ presence and how you carry yourself, plays a big part in making a possible attacker look elsewhere.

[@yusuke1583]

but why be 5'7 in boxing when u have weight classes meaning if ur the same weight of someone whos 5'11 ur screwed since reach and stuff

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Anime Fab: Since I may not get the chance to answer MY question, I will answer it here: You need bulk to TAKE blows. Anybody can punch people. You need cushion. Next, when you are a certain height, you HAVE to get real about your fighting. Example, I switched from Freestyle to Greco-roman because freestyle did not work as good form me. (freestyle take downs being below the waist forced me to give up my structure too often)

[@TshiroMifune]

I can't wait for the new channel...

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

andre graham: That's putting a lot of pressure on me coming from you lol. I will have to make sure I think the content through :)

[@TshiroMifune]

I've got plenty of your material to hold me over...

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

andre graham: :). Hey, I am not sure if I have your email. If you do not mind can you send it to [e-mail]. Of course it is ONLY for my own use. Got some questions to ask you and you are only perhaps one of 3 who would know at least one of them.

[@TshiroMifune]

Done...

[@HepClipz]

Greetings for UK Sayf. I know you don't like to do vids on every old current fighter but I was wondering what your thoughts were on the current crop of heavyweights? Sorry if you've covered this I've been out of the loop a little. Also I'm coming over to the US, staying in Bed Stuy for a while in June. Would love to come train. Do you still use the Gmail e-mail?

[@complexblackness]

I agree with the Inmate/bouncers. Now when it comes to LEOs Most COs/LEO can't fight and from my experience unless they are combat minded, they tend to not train or care about Self defense outside of what they learned in the Academy. It's a lot of "I'll just shoot", "Ill use the taser/baton/OC spray" and this is from dealing with hundreds of LEO over the years. You have to find the right one to talk to which will be hard to do. Many don't get that deep into the psychological side of violence. There are a select few who can point out things and explain to you A man's stance (feet position), hands, body language (sitting, walking or stationary), etc Usually guys who observe those things are considered paranoid etc. Those are the ones you talk to.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

ComplexBlackness: First you HAVE to listen to the ENTIRE video before trying to catch me on something. Listen AGAIN. I SAID "Maybe not TECHNIQUE, but they know about sociopathic behavior". Next, ALMOST ANY CO knows more than 80% of people on the street about violent behavior, by just virtue of being around it! That is fact! They do not have to write a book about it. I KNOW 3 COs! I trainer of recruits, another the head of the union and another who retired after 25 years. Next, my wife teaches a FEMALE CO and she can go on for hours on how to know when a man is going to try to assault you and she works as a TOWER SNIPER! Please dude. Save me the aggravation by listening to what I said, before jumping to answer my questions and trying to find something wrong with what I said. In prison NO ONE thinks in terms of being paranoid per se, they think in terms of being IN PRISON. Mass MURDERERS are NOT PARANOID. Do you think they are not being watched cause they do not fit that description? Lastly, I was ASKED to come to KZbin. 6 years ago by someone that KNEW me. I DO THIS. It is not to be on social media.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

ComplexBlackness: On the issue of it being hard to find a CO to talk to, not true in the least. They hang on the block of my school every weekend! at least 6 of them. Everyone will answer questions on how people react in AD, SC, DEATH ROW, In the YARD and so on. If they do not work that night, they can spend hours talking about it. NP. They all talk to me.

[@rjs19862011]

Salamu Alaykum. Well stated and to the point. Also, Jazak Allah Khair for exposing the foolishness of Joe Rogan on your other video.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

Richard S: Wa Alaikum Musalaam, Thanks and Rogan is slowly being found out with complaints about his bias coming from fighters and former fighters. The guy has not trained for real in his life and has not done much of anything-even sport since 1987! A fraud for sure.

[@siddiqsharif4061]

The ahks always getting hated on unless they part of the operation.

[@RAPEDBYBLACKS]

'if you behave in a way that convinces people you can take their head, you will not have to.' Sayf Carmen, on the priority of 'soft skills'. ----- Someone should make a cut of the last segment of this lecture, about the scanning of crowds ("this one will fight for his money, this one will not") and show it to every young man in today's feminized society. Play it for every so called reality self defence expert who has never walked through the hood at 2 AM or spent anytime on the corner with the crackheads.

[@IndigoXYZ18]

Eh, did you catch the UFC event last saturday? If not, go back and watch Yoel Romero vs Luke Rockhold, the main event. Yoel was using 52 Blocks and beat Rockhold with it. Now the revolution will begin now that it's been proven that hand fighting techniques from Wing Chun and traditional Karate can be used effectively at the highest levels of combat sports. A lot of us have known this was coming since the sport began, knowing that these arts can work if trained properly, but I still thought we were a few years away from seeing these techniques utilized in MMA.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

IndigoXYZ18: I did not see ALL of the fights, but bro, 52 blocks borrows from EVERY style and most people are not honest about what they took. There are certain hand movements that ALL styles use under pressure. I would not jump and say it is 52 blocks.

[@IndigoXYZ18]

TheUmmahFightCamp I've never heard anybody from 52 Blocks try to deny that it is a hybrid art. They've always said it is comprised of many styles, but primarily Boxing, Wing Chun and Karate. That said you could tell that Romero had been training 52 Blocks' unique blend of those arts.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

IndigoXYZ18: why can't it be just trying to confuse the man in front of him? lol. Since 52 takes from other styles, saying it is 52 is not possible.

[@IndigoXYZ18]

TheUmmahFightCamp But I mean how many original styles are therr really? That's like saying Kyokushin doen't exist, it's really Shotokan & Goju Ryu. Or saying Kyokushin is analogous to Gosoku Ryu because they are both hybrids of the same martial arts. Siblings aren't clones, they are a unique blend of their parents. And like how children are not their parents, like how grey is neither black or white, 52 Blocks is more than the sum of the arts it is derived from.

[@TheUmmahFightCamp]

IndigoXYZ18: 52 blocks was used to snare young black kids who wanted some connection to Africa. There it is. I have said it. I know people who have worked in the prison system for 25 years and they never saw 52 blocks used like it is used in videos. If you look at Kali or Sliat, they do the same thing as 52 blocks. Yoel is using his arms to block to not get hit. Plain and simple. Unless he trained with someone who teaches it or publicly says he looked at a video on it. The propaganda needs to be kept on ice.
