Lebanese 🇱🇧 (Red) vs. Israeli 🇮🇱 (Black)
The main topic for this weeks amateur sparring was to focus on using your body type to determine your style.
What does that even mean?
Tall guys (Black gloves) 🇮🇱 should use their length to stay far from their opponent. This requires alot of footwork.
Short guys (Red glives) 🇱🇧 should get close to use their power. This requires constant forward movement to smother the taller man’s punches.
As always, I analyze and post sparring of amateurs and NOT pros because it’s more realistic. If you’re on UA-cam watching fight video breakdowns to learn, you are most likely an amateur and this will benefit you much more.

More weekly breakdowns to come.

This video is an example as to why I do these videos. Most amateur sparring looks something like this and the improvements that should be done at the amateur level should be at the basic level like how is demonstrated between these two. Red gloves usually has a Rope-a-dope style in sparring. Rope-a-dope: get close to an opponent, brings hands up to block, allow opponent to punch themselves tir...

This week’s sparring breakdown: GM [Blue Gloves - a construction industry project manager] versus Billy [Black Gloves - a sales rep at a local pharmaceutical company] . Whenever you see a contrast in height, you can pretty much be guaranteed what each person’s game plan is going to be.

Nick (White Gloves) and Nour (Amazon Worker) are competitive amateur fighters with 5 fights in MMA and kickboxing. The main lessons to take away from the sparring session are the use of distance control and how if one distance isn’t working for you in a sparing session you should be switching it up trying a shorter distance with close range weapons like hooks or of that’s not working using long...
Jo (6’1 - 14 yrs old) vs Nezzem (5’11 - 16 yrs old)

This sparring session between two young amateurs was one of my favourite ones to record recently because of how realistic it is for most of the people watching these videos: beginner amateurs, who want to get better at the basics of MMA. You won’t see any fancy techniques in this session or any advanced strategies being implemented on the feet. This sparring session is all about covering the ba...

Hunter is one of our prospects at the gym who is training for his first fight and Andrew is the smaller fighter who has had five fights and is currently training for his sixth. The weight discrepancy is enormous as Hunter is walking around at 210 poun...
Nour (Amazon Worker) vs Noah (Carpenter)
Переглядів 1,4 тис.Місяць тому
Nour and Noah are both amateur fighters at my gym: Nour has 5 fights, Noah is training for his 1st. You can see the difference in experience levels, even though both are quite technical for being at such a young stage and their amateur careers. The main take away from the sparring session is that using punches before kicks in order to set up combinations is the best way to land the maximum amou...

UFC Coach Teaches Foot-Break Kick Defence
Переглядів 886Місяць тому
At Tristar Mma gym, one of our favourite ways to block the push kick is to redirect using the form in the elbow. One of the reasons we use the elbow redirection when an opponent throws a front kick or a push kick is because the elbow will damage the opponents ankle or foot, which has many bones inside of it. Not only will it cause damage to the actual foot, but once the opponents kick has been ...
