- During a trip to Bangkok, Thailand, former UFC featherweight champion, Max Holloway, trains with Samart Payakaroon.
Payakaroon is regarded by many as the best Muay Thai fighter of all time.
Payakaroon became world champion in both Muay Thai and western boxing, a 4x Lumpinee Champion and 3 x Thailand fighter of the year.
Holloway, the former, UFC champion, once rode a 13 fight win streak and had 5 title wins.

After his huge win over Calvin Kattar, What is next for Max?
Definitely deserves another title shot
@@nicholassantos5119 Was that a different Max? Or just stylistically good matchup for him?
@@JeffSainlarVisuals i think it was kind of both tbh. That was definitely his best performance. But then again, i keep thinking about how volko mixed up his striking better with the leg kicks.
@@JeffSainlarVisuals BOTH! I feel the UFC meta has shifted, toward more cerebral fighting. (CKB's influence lol) Holloway from Volk 1, Volk 2, and Kattar are different better versions. Ortegas game evolved similarly, and others. It's an awesome Era seeing these guys pushed to their best versions. 👏. Volkanovski has a task ahead of him this year with Ortega then Holloway 3. He got a legacy waiting on the other side tho if he conquers them! 💪🏾💪🏾 2021 is a year to behold in mma.
a rematch for the title he deserves it, his fight yesterday was awesome
That explains those devastating elbows we saw on the weekend!!
Nah, this happened in 2016.
@@qaaronrodgers2479 Well that explains it even more so as he looked far crisper and sharper in the fight than in this training video.
Casual, did you even watch the fight? Look at his hair, hair don't grow overnight
😂
@@reth4761 why u guys always say casuals? I know so much and I don't don't call people casuals, u kbow most people who say it are casuals, I think u r to. Do u workout everyday yo be a fighter and study techniques in every fighting style to be a true mixed martial artist and enjoy feeling pain? If not then u could also say ur a casual, but we're all the same, some know more but if that guys watched all the shit u did he would know what u know about fighting, fighting is easy to learn if it's in ur blood and of not then just hard work.
This is exactly why Max Holloway has drastically improved and even became a better fighter than he already is.
I think this might have happened a while ago? But he is always improving and he is always such a pleasure to watch.
This was defo a while ago less tats
look at his hair bro😂😂😂 this is years
Max looks super young in this. Lol It’s old
@@crunchyroll8756 2 years ago
Samart is genius, love seeing the respect Max has for him and his trainers
Max is Bangkok ready
Lol 😂
@@xaviermacaymma he actually is tho
Nah he isn't, he'd get kicked into oblivion
Word to Eddie bravo
Nah mate.. these thai fighters are just something else... always looking for brain damage but toughest out there
Been saying this for a LONG time. Elite MMA fighters such as Max, would benefit tremendously from training in Thailand with guys like Samart. Amongst other Thai legends that is.
The elbows holloway threw against calvin throughout the fight was one of the sharpest elbows ive seen thrown in an mma fight , no wonder
One this old clip, two you've haven't watched enough fighters if you think those elbows anything special
@@craigcassidy6078 The Thais throw the best elbows
I now see where the elbows and knees came from Sat night. Incredible
yeah this video is like from 2010
@@khonyeleaglefergumedov9175 yea its actually from 2016. and just because its from years ago means he didnt use what he learned here? dont be so stupid.
Training with Samart then wins 50-42.... Coincidence 😜
bro this is so old 😂😂😂😂
@@adrianors89 this is like 2017
@@christinejoiner6417 we in 2021 ?
@@adrianors89 yeah that's old
@@christinejoiner6417 ya that’s his point...
i recently became obsessed with muay thai. glad to see max is training with the best. its really cool because hes in his prime and his striking is getting even better
The best is blessed
Charles Olivera's game would match so well with training with Samaratt
TBH Samart's style helps with every MMA fighter since he emphasizes clean basics and efficiency. He teaches you to use less muscle to get your power to the opponent via solid balance
Many people seems to forget the fact than more relaxed you are the more strong you hit so.
1 be relaxed to absorb the technique
2 because you execute the technique correctly you can achieve power
Kind of funny since Max is known for his incredible cardio and Samart opposite. Samart was just so agile and technical.
Samart had small lungs and had to juggle being a celebrity and high level fighter
Samart is a real legend 💯, shame Max didn't pop in when I was training there last year would of been awesome! 🙏 Not being a hater as I'm a fan of Max and I know his background isn't Muay Thai, but he's got LEVELS to achieve yet judging by this footage. However, that means even more room for growth and even more of a scary Max to come 💪 stay blessed people ✌️🤙
Greatest Fighting Legend of all Time💯💯👊👊... say no more🙏
Damn max knows what’s up most fighters go to tiger Muay Thai and stuff he know samart a legend
I thought max was teofimo lopez based off the thumbnail😂😂
They do look similar when he had that haircut
Lol i was tripping like why is teofimo throwing a kick 😂
I met Samart years ago at a restaurant in Wichita ks. I was trying to explain to my friends that it was like seeing micheal Jordan just chillin
Ha he really is
Samart Payakaroon is a legend in the muay thai fight world
0.41, used that against Kattar and landed a gorgeous headkick, Calvin didn’t see it coming, beautiful.
0:41
One of the amazing things about training in Thailand with these legends is that they train everyone basically the same. The fine-tune the basics. I trained with Samart and it was almost identical to this session.
What a privilege. And hey, in 20 years young fighters will experience the same when they go to Hawaii to train with the by then legend Max "it is what it is" Holloway!
I really dig the training footage. A lot of training footage tends to be guys wacking away at the pads as fast as they can go to look cool for the camera. This looks deliberate and focused.
Samart is a legend! Max is a legend in making.
Dude gotta get some tips from Khamsing as well! Another evasive legend.
Max’s body kicking is on point here 👌
Surprisingly not a click bait title
I am Thai and I can assure you that Samart is the best Muay Thai fighter of all time. in his heyday No one dared to punch him. Until he had to leave Muay Thai and turn to international boxing
"Wow Max I love bro welcome to Thailand. Love Muay Tai
Sharpening those elbows!
So this is where max sharpened his elbow attacks
max went back to basics
Hella respect from max to smart!!!!
This is all for show holloway is the beast for a reason
Max, it pays off congrats
Dismantles top of level UFC fighter with ease.. short training with Samart.. Exhausted.
I'm just here for the skate boarding down the hall
This man is a legend, samart P.
Finally!! Fighters training with real Gs in thailand.
I just love everything about him
I just got back from a 4yr stint in Thailand...miss it.
Samart was a good boxer too. Max's body frame is great for muay thai.
these must be proud af to see those elbows from max. awesome to see.
Quality video mate!
Always amazes me that Max fights at 45. Dude looks huge.
Max looking Bangkok ready
Fighting was his gift from God he was blessed
,, fuck that shit max hard work and dedication is what's at play here.. hes not blessed hes talented and hardworking. God got nothing to do with it.. and which god are you talking about 🤔
Samart isnt just the best muay thai striker of all time, he's the best striker of all time. He proved that when he went into boxing. The mans a genius.
His stamina is out of this world
The nicest thing i saw today 🙏🏼😍
samart.the..best..muaythai.1
Them hands tho.... 😲
This is a younger Max
Samart 🙏
Oh hell yeah. Thais and Hawai'ians are brothers!
I love how Samart doesn't care that Max is a world champion, he still correct every little mistakes no matter how small they are. Beginners, pro, world champion all his student are the same to him!
he don't need his expertise he has good coaches and this is all for show
@@roninbushito
He has good mma coaches but when it come to muay thai none of them are even close to Samart.
@@51dodoc He's in UFC not muay thai
@@roninbushito
Yes but this is a muay thai class given by arguably the greatest muay thai practitioner of all times.
Thats why they increased his Body Kick stats in UFC 4 in latest patch :O
go max
He must have made them proud with that last fight, epic
Max is the best in ufc 🤞💪🙏
Good job!
This is gonna be great for max's stand up, if you thought he was good then he's gonna be legendary after this.
Samart Payakaroon!
i wish there was more footage of him training in Thailand
Is this samart payakaron? Hope max learn his signature side tip kick.
Can someone say when was this trip?? Read so many comments, no one mentions the date...
If we see Holloway training in Muay Thai and Volknoski training in Muay Thai holyshit its going to be a brawl when they get their trilogy
Holloway could learn a lot from doing Sparring with Rodtang. would like to see more ufc fighters go to thailand!
undoubtedly one of the best strikers in the featherweight division
The best not one of the best
@@Youngslimelife685 well we do have others....such as zabit, edson.
when was this filmed Jeff?
Pure muay thai rules I give the edge to samart
he is 1
He had an unreal performance last night!
I thought he learned striking from the ufc games
From when is this? Does not look recent
This explains THAT elbow....
Max holloway with more elbows 😱
Go!
What a treat
That guys super samart
Watch the tryouts for making Thailand’s team, it’s brutal.
this is what you get for unhuman cardio ,crazy speed and awesome fight iq trains with arguably the greatest muay thai fighter of all time
Max never throws kicks in mma
mad respect, but its old video, no tattoos on max's arms
The Best MUAY THAY Fighter /TRAINER of all Time Saenchai
Learn the power from Namsaknoi and the speed from Lerdsilla and you are the goat!!!
Is this the gym at ko samui? And Anderson Silva's coach Krup?
Smart
This old as footage but still cool to see anyway
A big shout out to our friend Kom. Our trainer in Koh Samui. Hope all is well. Much love and respect Marco.
This man is sharpening he's tool's in the shed,literally.
This was after the Volkanovski fight?
Good stuff
My dream is to travel thailand and start learn muaythai 😑❤
AHHHH SAMART
Damm no wonder he finally started using elbows. Hopefully he continues his muay thai trainining. He's a beast
This is from years ago he doesn't even have tattoos here.
I learnt a lot just watching those little clips. They are very direct with their kicks. No pussy footing. That's why some guys can kick down a banana tree plant. I like how the shin can extend while the quadriceps is striking, extra damage. Just don't break your shin like Anderson Silva or Conor McGregor.
Perhaps Karate kicks are better for endurance fights.
But a few Muay Thai kicks to the liver and it's over.
This was ages ago right ?
The Beat is Buakaw Por Pramuk
when was this filmed? Max seems a lot younger here or am i tripping?
Yeah I wonder this also. Surely Max couldn't travel and train in Thailand during covid
This is like 2017 or 2018, but certainly not very recent
This was 2016 you can tell cause of his hair and he doesn’t have his sleeves yet
