rod tang is so dominant in muay thai bc just like guys such as rico or alex pereira, he implements techniques from boxing and makes it effective. such as footwork and you can see in this clip not to mention his punches are thrown very crisp
@@nile7999 if you watch most muay thai or kickboxing fights they usually plod and walk guys down, not to mention boxers skip rope and do ladders a lot more than other styles. regardless, my hat still goes off to anyone who fights
@@markmessi9020 I agree boxing footwork is most complicated and boxers use footwork the most bc they don’t have to worry abt kicks but I think what he meant to say is that footwork techniques are not exclusive to just boxing, if you use pure boxing footwork in Muay Thai, kickboxing, mma your gna stand heavy on the lead leg and it’s gna be rly rly hard to check kicks and your gna get your legs absolutely destroyed, you have to combine footwork techniques from boxing, Muay Thai/kickboxing which is rly difficult tbh
Damn he even saw it looking the other direction he probably just sensed your fight energy or chi or whatever and knew your tell instantly what a legend
He has seen the same pattern with many beginners so dont need to see full sequence of mistakes, he probably guessed it after seeing other half he might have good intution as a bonus everything is pattern recognition he is a legend
@@ashishpant4673 overhyping? Rodtang is literally one of the greatest mt fighters ever it would be wise to assume he could pick up on subtle weaknesses easily...
@Ashish Pant You're slow in the head. He's saying the guy who made the video is lying because Rodtang wasn't looking and no human being alive can see "Chi"
Its called rhythm step, terrible mistake from boxers and kickboxers, muay thai doesn't have that problem since you're always bouncing and shifting weights between front and back foot.
depends on the situation, if you’re looking to counter it’s ok to stay heavy on your back foot, if you’re looking to move then you’re right: you stay on your toes to move around
depends how boxers use it. There’s a boxer named Willie pep, and he used to put his feet together to change angles. It’s called a V step. It’s pretty cool honestly
Holy shit, I just realized almost everyone at my gym does this in sparring. This video just blew my mind, that explains why I can read head kicks so well from most people. I guess my instincts noticed it before my brain. Genuinely, thank you.
@@ehernandez08 Even some elite fighters telegraph, they just get away with it because they can compensate with other traits (i.e. power or iron chin). If you don't address these type of minor details early in the beginning, it's VERY hard to get rid of them later in your combat sports journey, in particular, if you got away with them most of the time.
Rodtang (The Iron Man), Its literally the biggest tank in Muay Thai, he literally gets multiple punches to the head without any reaction. And literally tanks a MUAY THAI KICK TO THE GROIN😭
That's why dude is goated. My Muy Thai coached noticed the same thing with me during a few sparring seshes. Little things like that can definitely change your game
Always good to film yourself and then watch back at half speed . You'll pick up all sorts of things. Also practice everything slow at first . If you can't do it slow there's a good chance you're off balance and using speed to cover it . Bad habits come easy but can be very hard to get rid of.
I am no professional but even I noticed something was a little off, if you had an opponent in front of you they'd see whatever you were trying to do and evade It but now you have been taught by a legend
Exactly brother! I danced for years (hip hop, salsa, etc) and I use my dancing footwork in MMA and Boxing every day!!! It may not be by the book but it's my style and martial arts is, art! Having such unusual footwork allows me incredible balance and power from all angles, and it allows for a ton of set-ups, traps and improvisation!!! Bruce Lee: RARA
What? Dude even some slightly experienced fighters can telegraph occasionally, its a normal thing lmao it happens in every level just not to the same extent
what I like most about the Thais isn't the brutality that wow'ed me when I was younger. It's how at the top level there's this emphasis on efficiency and economy of movement thats graceful at times.
Was thinking since we got the special move training for resurrection units could you do a vid on best resurrection characters in terms of usability and then also in terms of links?
in summary you’re telegraphing a kick
Yup
Too much loading
No shit sherlock
Rhythm step.
Anyone could’ve told him that 😅
Man analyzed and discombobulated your entire moveset with a 0.1 nanosecond glance lmao
discombobulated lmao
He is experienced
Disco what ???
Hate to be that guy, but that is entire the wrong word lol
@@Thunderchicken001 It is but now the word is a meme.
You met Rodtang! That's crazy
You can train at the gym where he trains and you can meet him everyday. Im pretty sure you can even pay him for a private training session.
@@Don_SamRaz Jitmuangnon gym apparently its a pretty hardcore in terms of training. Dont recommend if youre new to go there.
He’s the commentator for one fc which is where rodtang fights, im sure they know each other pretty well

Rodtang moves so smooth
Yesterday
But hits like a damn beast bro xd
True bro
Smoothly
Rodtang doesn't need to speak other languages to effectively teach you how to fight. I love that.
Yeap, very common for beginners. Pros use those "tells" for setups.
Thats what they are "feeling out" in the first round.
dont tell the lowbies all of our secrets shark lol

lmfao @@SuperThesavagesomeone feels veeery entitled aint cha
Never being off balance is such a powerful weapon for offense and defense.
thank you for the tip
All those Thai fighters are elite, so smooth with every movement. I'm jealous you got a lesson from Rodtang 😅
They stared fighting when they are like 4 or 5

footwork is not a boxing technique, it's a technique used in all fighting.
@@nile7999 yes and boxers have the best footwork which is why rodtang trains some boxing. What's your point?

Man wasn’t even looking and he still knew what you were doing wrong… that’s how you know how good he is
I think Coach Barry would call that a rhythm step
I dunno who this Rodtang fella is but if he works hard, he could be a One Championship Muay Thai champion, capable of dishing out damage one day.
hehehehe

A lot of Muay Thai fighters used to have that problem back in my active days until at least 5-6 years ago
Best is to use both and learn how and when.
@@choopdap a fellow boxing historian I see.
So freaking cool to have someone so humble and dangerous giving some advice
Even when Rodtang is going 2% his movements and technique are so fuckn clean

headkicks are easy to see
Song is called the way I are by Timbland for those wondering.
Man his stability when moving is amazing, im always tripping on my own feet
It's awesome watching the movements of elite fighters, Rodtang looked so smooth there.
This might be name dropping or whatever, but that's freaking cool you worked out with that guy
Rodtang (The Iron Man), Its literally the biggest tank in Muay Thai, he literally gets multiple punches to the head without any reaction. And literally tanks a MUAY THAI KICK TO THE GROIN😭
RODTANG'S footwork and Posture ,Positioning before kicking punching in many angles Power,Super fast hands, and incredible chin.
RODTANG is ALL!
What an *HONOR!!*
🙏🏼เคารพ
That's why dude is goated. My Muy Thai coached noticed the same thing with me during a few sparring seshes. Little things like that can definitely change your game
did he give you a program to fix this?
Rodtang is one of the finest fighters in the world today.
Really cool to see going out of his way to help put someone in the right direction!
yah we tend to do that type of stuff for the noobies, help em out whenever we can
Rodtang is a tank that keeps pushing forward not many people can do what he can do
Must be really cool to get advice from Rodtang
Sweet dude. Got trained by Rodtang and got to work out on Stamp's bag.
hes basically saying, "stop telegraphing"
I love the humble guy😊
Thats awesome getting coached by rodtang!!!
Pretty awesome you got coaching from Rodtang. Lucky!
Think everyone noticed not just Rodtang👍🏻
Rodtang: I see your leg kick and I raise you a straight cross

The dude w/ black sleevless looks like dancing with hes hands.
You the man Mitch!
Coach Barry talks talks about this
That’s called a rhythm step. It gives you away and takes you out of stance, but it feels cool to do
Haha.. i have that same habit!!! 😂 niice one
Tony 'Alley-Oop' Ferguson looking determined here
He can tell cause he's in ssj form.
Yeah easy to check . You met a legend there
Love the thais technicality.
If Rodtang talks to me!! Achievement unlocked !!!
A lot of these desk jockeys obviously don't know who Mitch is lmaoooo
Great film and great tips!
you got to train with rodtang what a lifetime oppurtunity
"once in a lifetime"
He Must’ve Met The WalMart Brand RodTang 😂😂😂
He saw it even with his back turned
Dude that’s great input, I do this too, thanks for sharing
Learn all you can from that man! 🙏🏽👊🏽🔥🤙🏽
You can really see, how rodtang switched from muay thai to dutch kickboxing
You can bait your opponent with that and then surprise them with something other than the kick too. Turn your weaknesses into strengths

I know sancheai does that shadow step in one of his old pads videos with the red thai shorts on, but he baits it like he going to throw the kick.
Sometimes youre not meant for something. This is one of those times .
What? Dude even some slightly experienced fighters can telegraph occasionally, its a normal thing lmao it happens in every level just not to the same extent
Get the chance to train with Rodtang, nice.
I mean, he did take 2 business days to throw that kick

Precious jewels here
Basically humble bragging he trained with rodtang
Some sexy Tcha-Tcha dance move right there ... Big up.
That's the brawler style muay Thai for you
Rodtang is champ for a reason
Basically you havent even done a beginners class😂
dang you got a free class from Rodtang
funny that rodtang telegraphed on the second kick
Man i worked on not telegraphing ANYTHING for so long like taking my time too throwing very slow
Rodtang the thai Bruce lee
The first kick acually good when you opponent already having a lazy leg footwork because fatigue.. it a knock out kick
Dude was walking
Pretty cool
I can see it miles away as well, keep evolving!
Alex Pereira 🗿
That's the name I remember when I see this telegraphing kicks topic
It takes insane core strength to move like Rodtang right? So effortless
That was a massive telegraph.
It’s called rhythm stepping and so many are guilty of it, even professional fighters and champs in boxing and UFC. Glad to see this.
Buakaw enters the chat!
I wanna see rodtang inside the octagon of UFC
That bag is massive
He noticed more problems than foot work. Staring at your opponents feet , the right arm all over the shop, jab with little purpose or power ..
He looks like a CAF ufc 4 fighter
Rodtang is the man!!!!!
Was thinking since we got the special move training for resurrection units could you do a vid on best resurrection characters in terms of usability and then also in terms of links?
The reason is because you can tell you are about to throw a kick or telegraphing a kick
if u didnt know, the first guy in the vid used to fight in ONE, in mma
He's right though I see it too. It's a sort of extra step. 😅
I envy you friend I wanna train with rodtang too one day
Breaks down footwork with back turned rodtang can do anything.
Great of him to help out
Valuable lesson
Just stop fuckin rythm stepping -coach Barry Robinson
So many people do it👎 It's super bad ngl
@@sniper-qr7qs true. There’s literally no purpose of doing it
So many coaches doesn't even notice it
Be like Rodtang is a pretty tough task...
that's a bad man
Epic I actually think Rodtang telegraphs loads himself. Now spar with him telegraph the kick but throw a overhand instead.....
