any opinion about this aside..u can really see how the small gloves change the whole dynamic and the style of the sport. Different movements, more boxing, closer guards, more weight on the legs etc. both elite athletes, u can purely by the rounds watch how nolan switches from big gloves to the new school style!
what a masterclass display of techniques, notice in Liam's first 3 rounds his adjusts his style according to his partner, I really enjoyed this vid hopefully can see more in the future
I I've been using that myself and still playing with it. Not normally used it coming from Muay Thai but somehow works so far in MMA. Still lots to improve for myself
Good to see him at Lumpinee on the weekend, i think he was unfortunate but who could have predicted that tomahawk elbow catching him flush......crazy shot. Even nolan said it was "remarkable". Anyway, great sparring footage as always. There's so much talent in the UK that should be in ONE. Ammari, Bendon (unlucky against seksan) need to be in one.
These videos are always amazing. Being a taekwondo black belt i always wanna get better. Im constantly trying to improve my combinations and not just throw legs. These videos constantly inspire me and help me be more well rounded. Great video(s)! Please keep sharing. 🙏
Important note : this kind of sparring is ONLY FOR PROFESSIONALS. For people who make a living by fighting . If you are not gonna fight in the ring you don’t need to go hard . Just technical . Taking shots all the time will sure bring up neurological issues for some people ! Be careful guys ! Remember : NO EGOS
Love your videos man. Super entertaining and educational. Do you guys think the high guard in useful in 4oz gloves? I feel super confortable with high guard, when I use small gloves that confidence disappears sometimes
I've only done two lessons and lately I'm using the long guard or guard where hands are a bit lower.. I'm thinking if you go high it'll be hard for take down defence where you gotta angle to the side and sprawl, controlling their head... Get sometime to keep doing take downs on you while high guarding and see. Your coach should be able to comment on this
Im in my thirties now. The older I get, the more I start to hate hard sparring and like to do more techincal sparring. Like the Thais and the Russian wrestlers do all the time. In my opinion it's better to have lower intencity, but staying consistent every day then train your ass off and having to take time off to recover. Also, the injuries start to pile up and let's not forget about brain damage.
love this series, inspiring stuff. got me doin' some of my own camera work for gyms here in ontario! hope i get the chance to hang & pick your brain some day! keep up the awesome work.
@1:18 he just got knocked out if it were not for the pull back or the shin pads, I understand the concept of hard sparring, but we need to acknowledge that when a clean strike land do not rush the person back or try to sweep or play it cool. Reset and go again. Other than that good rounds guys.
I'm a boxer and I once helped a bare knuckle boxer in sparring, I never did it with small gloves. I did the sparring very well but I was afraid to connect clean in my partner's face. How can I go about shooting without fear without making a cut or a KO? Thank you for your content
Trained with Liam years ago at double K in Hastings at a John Wayne Parr seminar. Didnt know who he was at that time but see him leathering pads. Whole time Thinking no way this aint normal he must be a pro. Fast forward to now 😂
Was Ammari Diedrick going soft on Liam because Liam was gonna fight? In every video I've seen, Ammari is hitting significantly harder but this time he's actually hitting quite soft even though Liam is throwing with a little heat.
Is the guy a bully? That is what i see, the other guys pull their shots because he already goes too hard, and they pull their shots even more when he goes harder. Why does he not respect his partners?
He's definitely not, it's the norm at this gym. Go watch all the other spar wars videos or any of the ones from 4D. These guys go absurdly hard with each other on the regular, and also go extremely hard on people with clearly less experience (go watch what happens to the tall guy from the first "lions eat first" video). On the contrary, go watch some of Liam Nolan's other sparring videos, as he usually is respectful and technical with his sparring. He's not a gym bully, he's just a vey experienced fighter who happened to go visit a gym where they all go super hard all the time, and he simply is matching the pace.

His understanding and management of distance is just beautiful.

Agreed bro
thanks for watching
Sparred Liam at Double K gym a few years ago. Can honestly say he is one of the most awkward fighters I've come up against. Nightmare to spar😂
He’s a beast for sure
Awkward how? Seems like he's a fairly bread-and-butter southpaw.
@@irishpizza2823 he isn't in One Championship for being just a " bread and butter" south-paw. Jeeez😂
Liam nolan is an actual ONE FC fighters, this is pure elite pro sparring
Agreed 👍
wow what a timing, precision and display of tecnique. I love how Liam deals with a beast like Ammari
Love it!
More of these! Just started MMA so this is great timing!
thanks
Im almost 25 and about to take classes soon ive been practicing on my own on and off for 2 yrs
Love how he uses that long guard frame, dayum!! Fast as heck.
yeh hes a beast for sure
I I've been using that myself and still playing with it. Not normally used it coming from Muay Thai but somehow works so far in MMA. Still lots to improve for myself
Nice to see all the regulars getting some rounds in with Liam. I knew he was tall but he's an absolute giant next to the guys
Liam is on different level

MIssing the spar wars episodes
they are legendary
This was amazing to watch🔥🔥🔥
thanks for watching

comment because i share the same interest

Ive seen that darker guy with big gloves many times, it was diffrent this time with mma gloves.
Good video

Go for it!
Beautiful technique by the big southpaw, nice to watch.
Liam looking like an absolute assassin 👊
Diedrick's high guard is amazing to watch even in small gloves. It is really hard to hurt him.
@1:18 he just got knocked out if it were not for the pull back or the shin pads, I understand the concept of hard sparring, but we need to acknowledge that when a clean strike land do not rush the person back or try to sweep or play it cool. Reset and go again. Other than that good rounds guys.
Agree
Great catch. Couldn’t agree more
ur the guy in sparring to throw some full power, wild headkick and get mad when someone reciprocates ur douchery. Ik ur type bro
Elite fighter vs. gym bully
I'm a boxer and I once helped a bare knuckle boxer in sparring, I never did it with small gloves. I did the sparring very well but I was afraid to connect clean in my partner's face. How can I go about shooting without fear without making a cut or a KO? Thank you for your content
Beautiful. Much Respect. PLEASE SPECTATOR, THIS TYPE OF SPARRING(speed, intensity, gloves, no head gear) IS ONLY FOR PRO's, ELITE CONTROL.
Trained with Liam years ago at double K in Hastings at a John Wayne Parr seminar. Didnt know who he was at that time but see him leathering pads. Whole time Thinking no way this aint normal he must be a pro. Fast forward to now 😂
ONE FC fighters are just elite level 😮
Congrats for your fight last night Liam 👍
unfortunate he damaged his hand
I think that’s the first time I’ve seen omari touch the floor
Incredible❤, why not wearing headgear though?
Where is this gym based?
Sparring with those baby gloves is WILD.. lol..
Good sparring. Nauzet went to town though.
Elite ones doing it like technical and amateur doing hardest possible
This looks so fun👀👀
it was.
Sparring 👍
Is this gym in UK?
Liam was like 2/3 weeks out from a fight, hence why he's going a lil harder
Was Ammari Diedrick going soft on Liam because Liam was gonna fight?
In every video I've seen, Ammari is hitting significantly harder but this time he's actually hitting quite soft even though Liam is throwing with a little heat.
NICE!

Bad luck to Nolan for the One fight. I thought he was winning until that elbow to the nose.
yep anything can happen in this game i believe he also broke his hand in the first round
liam nolan was sparring way too hard than his partner... they put too much respect on him, they should have go harder
They spar hard. Is usually against conventional wisdom but
Nice rounds gents
thanks for watching
Liam is amazing to watch. His skill is just another level. Liam defo brought 🔥 to this sparring session.
yeh hes an elite striker so good
this is kinda hard
Liam whooped that hynii
White shins looks off it
keep sparring this hard and your pro career will be short, you will be dealing with injuries from practice instead of competition
The Moroccan is now MMA fighter? I thought Kickboxer.
hes now switched to mma
@@SiamBoxing Thanks!
This blonde dude looks really Elite, crazy fighter, very good defense, barely got touched.
Do you mean Liam Nolan?? He’s elite one championship fighter.
