I wonder with that first take down if instead of getting a grip on the neck if an under hook on his arm would have the same effect to getting a more secure side control once he is down. thoughts???
They must posture to do it so its a good time to shoot a double or single. Club with your trail hand, dig for underhook and use it to knee-tap. If the posture and resist, shoot a double. If the sprawl walk up to an underhook and knee-tap. You should at least be able to get an underhook off your shot even if you don't get a take down. Look up Iranian wrestler Yazdani. His whole game is based on knee taps from a single underhook
tomsn99 that's very common in wrestling. you can do it effectively without making it hurting them like a strike to the back of the head and if your still complaining you need to reevaluate your toughness and your reasoning for being in class. fights won't be easy they will I'm fact be tough. training should replicate this in a safe manner.
There's this one very simple takedown that involves very few movements to do. It's essentially used when two people are literally stepping to each other, face to face, about to throw down. Then the guy who does the takedown puts one forearm behind the neck and another on the forehead or somewhere else on the face, and the guy drops like a brick. I never learned how to do this takedown, and for a long time I've been looking for this. It seems like the easiest, simplest takedown I ever saw.
Problem is these take down aee good against bjj guard pullers because they fall back so easily try doin tgis to a judoka or wrestler its hust not hapening
what if the other opponent is wearing body armour, jumps up and kicks you in the head idiot.what if his friend has a shot gun pointed at your ass, what then moron?
God, videos like this are just irresponsible, Stephan. There's no way you could pull off a guillotine if your attacker is wearing a gorget and helmet buckled to his breastplate. And good luck putting him down without a dagger to slip into his armpit or eye slit.
It does but this isn't the most simple way to do it for me. I like to jab set up jab to the head, then the jab hand pushes the body, and I sweep at the ankle. It worked well when I do it when training or competing against other clubs.
+Jeneke R. bacause this happens in an instant (in a real fight) and when you're falling, it's hard to land hard punches. You also need to do it at the right time. Not when your opponent starts a flurry of fists. But you can do something that makes him NOT want to punch you, like punching his liver, kidneys, ... . When he defends his torso from your punches / knees, he won't think about his legs or punching you in a fraction of a second. Another thing you can do, is trying to control (grab) his arm / wrist. First thing he want's to do is free it. Which gives you a second to execute the takedown. So like many techniques, you need to combine two or more to be successful.
+Yoeri Stessens I didn't realise most fights started and finished with a cuddle. Yes street fights are quick. Best to take them down with strike and not a cuddle. These techniques are brilliant, but only if you are dumb and slow enough to get grabbed. It comes back to awareness and skill. I'll never use this because I'm not a cage fighter that has to.
+Junoskinner You seem to know what you are talking about. So I'll try to make my point with that in consideration. Most people do not know how to fight properly. They don't know how to hit hard and at the right places. So they go straight for the knock out. But you need to be lucky to strike with a KO punch. Or you need to be trained for years that you know how to place a punch like that AND time it properly. But when you know that stuff, you are probably at a maturity level that you don't want to fight unless you absolutely need to (eg: someone keeps coming and punching you without backing off). Now you need to strike your attacker down so he stops striking. But when you "cuddle" you can take the attacker down WITHOUT the need to kick his head in, like you need to in the example above. On the ground, most people don't know what to do and are just flopping around like a fish. Next the mostly try to squeeze your head and try to punch. But those punches could be nullified completely by "cuddling" in the right way. In the end you can do with your attacker what you want. He'll be tired after a minute or so because of all the fishy-flopping. Long story short. Striking an attacker down is certainly possible (and quicker), but by "cuddling" you can take the attacker down without hurting him or yourself. Both sides have advantages and disadvantages. What most people think "what if he's not alone?" Well, you need to keep that in mind as well when you bash his head in. His friend probably won't like either way, so... Lastly, try to watch some Judo, BJJ and/or Ju-Jitsu tournaments on UA-cam. You can see that these techniques work. Even against another skilled opponent who knows what's happening.
good to see kang still out there doing work and droppin that knowledge
Very helpful for a beginner like me, thank you!
Denis, how old are you? I remember you a long time ago in the UFC. Good to see you again. and with hair no less. LoL
As always, great video. Thanks for posting.
I remember kang being a purple belt and having a moves segment on grappling magazine.
Great video Stephen.
Pfffh
*_Y'all didn't even do the flying scissors_*
Interesting one that Kang shows. Thanks for sharing!
Great wrestling techniques. Works every time.
Wonderful stuff!
Awesome tips thanks for sharing!!!
Denis Kang was such an exciting beast to watch when he first burst onto the scene.
I gotta know Dennis: was that fight with Mousasi in Japan fixed?? I just couldn't believe you jumped into a triangle that easily....
Love the last takedown 👌🏻
I wonder with that first take down if instead of getting a grip on the neck if an under hook on his arm would have the same effect to getting a more secure side control once he is down. thoughts???
You can underhook an arm and tap the opposite knee, this is Dominick Cruz's most typical takedown, look him up. ;)
Thank you,very useful!
I feel like I cant even collar tie the guys at my gym. They are super strong and resist my snaps or they just move away to disengage my collar tie
Eugene Vovk feel u
You train with wrestlers?
They must posture to do it so its a good time to shoot a double or single. Club with your trail hand, dig for underhook and use it to knee-tap. If the posture and resist, shoot a double. If the sprawl walk up to an underhook and knee-tap. You should at least be able to get an underhook off your shot even if you don't get a take down. Look up Iranian wrestler Yazdani. His whole game is based on knee taps from a single underhook
Stephan is the man!
Randy Couture loved that knee block with an under hook.
I grew up in North Van and knew all about the Kang brothers. Good dudes, Denis is a beast.
LOL! @ 2:33 😂
When ur enemy is like 2 feet taller than u, and u can barely touch the neck 😂
But yeah thanks for sharing very effective stuff here 👍
1:25 the guy falling down could give him a kick in the balls, game over.
dude that slap down on the back of the head is bullshit.. there'll be lots of angry training partners
whining pussies
tomsn99 in wrestling it works - snap downs
Well, there's things you do differently in competition than when just doing some rolling with partners. You pull out the shit that works in comp.
and you must be the guy every one hates to train with
tomsn99 that's very common in wrestling. you can do it effectively without making it hurting them like a strike to the back of the head and if your still complaining you need to reevaluate your toughness and your reasoning for being in class. fights won't be easy they will I'm fact be tough. training should replicate this in a safe manner.
Nice sir
오! 데니스강👍
You could also apply a left-handed osoto-gari from the same setup...
Budo Man they usually won't expect the use of the arm instead of the leg
denis kang ruled
What is the deal with Denis’s right foot? Is that a cut or infection?
Good I hope I can use these in my Security work!
10/10
Wasn't Kang a character from Mortal Combat?
There's been lots of people with the name Kang in the history of the world. Believe it or not, they're not all the same person, either.
I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you there, I'm pretty sure they are.
THANKSS
I remember Denis fighting in PRIDE...good ol days
Спасибо очень интересно

can you explain it better...
denis kang please come back to korea~
This ends with: "Now, let me show you the flash knockout" *WHAM*
Problem is these take down aee good against bjj guard pullers because they fall back so easily try doin tgis to a judoka or wrestler its hust not hapening
That comment would apply to me trying literally any takedown against a wrestler or a judoka.
if the take down is not to the back do you still get points?
What do you mean, a standard takedown to back control?
cool man
Like it
nice.
I'm watching this on the shitter... why?
Me too
60% of the time works everytime.
I wish people in bjj would stop to use the word pummel incorrectly.
Ouch!))))
What if your opponent kicks you in the groin first, take down is useless then.
Then you get instant victory as he is disqualified! This is a no gi grappling video, not street fighting.
what if the other opponent is wearing body armour, jumps up and kicks you in the head idiot.what if his friend has a shot gun pointed at your ass, what then moron?
+Brian O Manachain. Again, this is not street fighting. Those things won't happen in a mixed martial arts fight.
First you slip the kick and counter with a well timed chop to the groin, then you knock the gun out of the other's hand with a chinese throwing star
God, videos like this are just irresponsible, Stephan. There's no way you could pull off a guillotine if your attacker is wearing a gorget and helmet buckled to his breastplate. And good luck putting him down without a dagger to slip into his armpit or eye slit.
Slap harder for a nice takedown it realy hurts
Easy
L A M E.
Good luck with that....
You stand syraight up and down youll get taken down all day
lol
Dude in long sleeve kinda looks like pee wee hermen
There is no way that first one works lol
Gsp used It a lot of times
It does but this isn't the most simple way to do it for me. I like to jab set up jab to the head, then the jab hand pushes the body, and I sweep at the ankle. It worked well when I do it when training or competing against other clubs.
The first one exposes your head alot for mma, its nice for bjj but you will definitely get punched in the face
kang was a celebrated mma fighter. it's not as easy as you think to strike when someone's grappling with you
kang let go lol kinda chubby dude
why isn't he punching your nose with his free hand? (0:42)
+Jeneke R. bacause this happens in an instant (in a real fight) and when you're falling, it's hard to land hard punches.

Kang seems a bit too grumpy in this video...🤣
