I got a good chuckle every time that poor kid got teeped out of frame. What a hero, this inspired me to keep getting my ass kicked by some of the vets at my gym.
Love the "no superstar" treatment and mentality from Coach Knowles and Haggerty at 7:44. Calling out shots which are too hard and apologising immediately. Thank you for this video Siam Boxing, love from Singapore!
yes everyone is equal when in the gym that is how it should be right from the beginner to the professionals. this type of environment breeds success and it proves it with the quality coming out of the knowlesy academy. im glad you like the video i hope to bring more quality content. thank you
I love how coach pulls them back and orchestrates the environment so that everyone is being competitive but learning while minimizing risk of injury. Playful combat. It’s a thing of beauty.
Love the environtment allowing the guys to learn and grow, not working full force. Great work by the coach as well, calling out when guys hit too hard. Amazing. In boxing or at least in all the gyms i've been guys always try to hit the hardest and often in cold 10oz broken gloves. And the coaches don't give a damn.
This is what seperates great coaches and average coaches to be quite honest. A coach should always be there to look out for his team, and coach them tell them when they are doing to much, tell them when they make a mistake. Its all good learning. Its always good when the gym environment makes you want to go back the next day to learn more. Safety, Knowledge, Progression.
@@theaverageitaliandon998 it’s actually a very lion den ish in a boxing gym. crazy environment good to be around if u want a take all mentality but yeah horrible on the brain.
I know he’s still a young competitor, but i would like to imagine him as an excellent trainer in old age and retirement. The way he competes, sparrs, as well as help guide fellow classmates, he obviously contains alot of knowledge, not just as a fighter, but a mentor to up and comers.
Hey why don't they wear headgear? I box and we always wear headgear to spar. Just getting into muay thai and I see everyone sparring without headgear and I don't really understand it. There's a good chance that elbow would have done some damage. Just asking, I know barely anything about muay thai
@@SiamBoxing I also did the box to muay transition a few months ago and my conclution is clear, muay thai is tough and raw man, trainers want us to be like thailand warriors or some sht. Anyways, at my gym we hit to the shoulder if We elbow while sparring.
@@davidfernandez8515 you're allowed to wear it but generally thai sparring is much lighter than boxing sparring so it's not always needed. Yes accidents happen but most guys pull those elbows, knees and head kicks really well so they don't give everyone brain damage
He throws the teep, efficiently yet powerfully. He pushing them across the ring and I know he isnt even using the teep technique to the full extent of his power. Impressive
Once this freaking Covid situation ends I hope that he will make his way to Thailand and becomes another Jean Charles Skarbowski / Ramon Dekkers type of performance!
What actually impressed me the most was the way they sparred! They kept it real with the emphasis being on developing the techniques and combos with out egos! It allowed each partner to execute in real time. Repetition is mastery. Acknowledging each other's mistakes as well as what they did well should be a lesson to us all. This is what training is all about. Thai On!
Hes unreal.... his technique is on another level just makes it look effortless. Hes a future superstar if he can learn ground game Nd wrestling.... the British adasanya.
@@SiamBoxing wow hes gonna smash it then. Even in his documentary on UA-cam you can see the star in him when he talks... the next mcgregor / adasanya 🌟
His fakes and teeps are just something else. Dude’s fighting IQ is up there with the greats, and he’s just getting started. Amazing channel also, we need more content from the Knowlesy Academy!!!
thank you, i will hopefully film some more content with them soon i do have a few more videos to release of the pad work. Haggerty is a brilliant fighter can't wait to see him back on ONE Championship
I love this sparring, being able to turn the heat up, but the coach still makes sure the other fighter is ok, but still maintaining that push hard attitude.
The professionalism from the coach and both these gents is amazing to watch. Keep this content coming! Just amazing to watch and learn. Wish more coaches were like this.
i love watching pro fighters hold back and be slightly gentle, just out playing their sparring partner. Jonathan in a real fight does some serious damage!
How can you be such an awesome athlete... and still being so humble as to salute and apologize to every opponent?? Awesome to have him back at ONE after a year.
this is so beautiful i could cry. Mr. Haggerty has the nicest style. so clean and wonderful balanced. The other guys are very high level skilled too of course, but haggerty got the style !
Siam Boxing Yes of course! Just began Muay Thai, and these vids have been the best to observe/study then practice on the heavy bag. Much love from Oklahoma!
Jonathan Haggerty is one of the most exciting young fighters I've seen in recent years he reminds me a lot of a young hungry Ramon Dekkers with his aggressive come forward style and love his left kicks they are lethal!
totally agree, he is a super exciting fighter hes got a huge career ahead of him and achieved a lot at a young age. it will be good to see him back in the ring soon, id still like to see him in traditional gloves
I absolutely love that Haggerty slows down after some of his teeps/kicks to check up on his sparring partner and make sure he didnt land too hard. In the first 2 minutes you can see him do this 3 or 4 times. That is a good sparring partner. Love watching him fight as well, I am a huge fan.
What a great gym, nothing but respect from everyone when they spar together. They all push one another and you can see it when they spar but they let one another learn. True sign of a great gym. Haggerty is a beast with that teep!
Gotta respect Haggerty for being able to adjust to everyone’s levels…you can see him turning it up and down with different sparring partners and matches their energy/skill level
Jon is a superb technician with killer instinct, what a combo. And still really respectful guy to boot. I think only high level Muay Matt can really get to such fighter.
This whole channel is an absolute gold mine, 11/10 please continue to provide us with content you are doing us a huge service with channel my friend and I thank you very much for that
Seeing the lack of power of Tenshin in comparison to Rodtang , Haggerty take the victory with relative ease with better timing in counters and the teep.
The best fighter from The Knowlesy Academy right now. Just crazy to see how many fighters have left/stopped fighting from the gym, especially the young talent that was there.
Siam Boxing Yeah that’s true, but the likes of Luciano and his training partner Aminullah have left. Ask Chris about them, he would praise them both quite a lot. They were great fighters but ended up leaving,
Did you feel the spar was too hard more often than you’d like? I don’t ever catch kicks unless it’s to drill something and my partner catches on quick without needing to tell them. And certainly never spin. Seems a couple of those teeps were … Needlessly hard haha
Loving this channel and the regular posts, keep them coming can see this getting massive as its especially good for people who train to see such quality!
thanks for that, i agree the content is good for everyone to learn no matter what level its good to see extended training footage of this quality. i will keep putting the work in and releasing good quality videos and hopefully the channel will keep growing with it. im very happy how its grown so far.
Teep on the face and body is my signature move and honestly it's really hard to land it😅😄 but Haggerty is doing it effortless 🙏🏻 more videos like this sir please 🙏🏻
Haggerty has got one of the most impressive teeps in thai boxing
its a thing of beauty the way he can switch stances into the teep is awesome.
Siam Boxing could watch it all day mate
It’s a teep salad with teep dressing and some fried teeps. Love it.
Honestly
I conquer
That teep is ridiculous, so good to watch
king of the teeps
it's like he's got a retractable leg that just grows an extra foot or so
Ey I'm learning english and i cant find what "teep" means, can u help me?
@@debu2849 “teep” is a front push kick.
@@9mydragon Oh ty, I dont know that word uwu
I got a good chuckle every time that poor kid got teeped out of frame. What a hero, this inspired me to keep getting my ass kicked by some of the vets at my gym.

Bro sparring at boxing gyms is basically fighting, I don’t think people can understand how hard they go unless they’ve experienced it
@@theaverageitaliandon998 it’s actually a very lion den ish in a boxing gym. crazy environment good to be around if u want a take all mentality but yeah horrible on the brain.
60% to body and legs 30% to head is what I think is best for everydays sparing.
Legs and rips can heal. Brain cells do not
@@theaverageitaliandon998 yeah in my experience. Boxing gyms generally go much harder than Thai/MMA gyms. It's not healthy for longevity!
Hope John stays humble. He is a role model to every generation out there in the UK. 🇬🇧
Real talk mate.
@X Into the Void X I know but he represents the UK, and proudly too.
i think this video shows how humble he is, hes a cool guy and very respectful.
agreed
respect
John is so technical it's physically painful to watch because it reminds me how sloppy I am. Awesome content as always
his skillset is next level and so early in his career it will be exciting to see his future fights. thanks for liking the content.
@@SiamBoxing Nice prediction
Love how he keeps it simple. Does the basics so well. Can learn a lot from him. Legend

He defended so well against the teep and the spinning elbow 4:02

Thank you very much we have just finished doing some new pad work videos with him which we will release soon
He throws the teep, efficiently yet powerfully. He pushing them across the ring and I know he isnt even using the teep technique to the full extent of his power. Impressive
The traps Haggerty sets are so sneaky, and his lead push kick is unmatched 👊
yep, his iq is next level. and those teeps are crazy
This front kick sends people.into different time zones.
Such clean form and creative he's really interesting to watch!
agreed with his style hes a favourite of many always good to watch especially the incredible teeps and elbows hes got
Once this freaking Covid situation ends I hope that he will make his way to Thailand and becomes another Jean Charles Skarbowski / Ramon Dekkers type of performance!

pretty much sums up any plans in 2020 haha
This got me laughing 😂
Amazing sportsmanship
nothing but respect, always. thanks for watching man

I hope he can beat rod tang before
@@saucepoisfosse so do I mate, that rodtang is so aggressive and just eats the shots 😳
Anderson Dess, he will never beat rodtang as he is on another lvl of Muay Thai. Rodtang has more experience in Muay Thai then Jonathan
Love the coach for calling out haggerty when he goes too hard and then checking up on the others
that is a great coach. thank you for watching
Agreed knowles is quality 👌
His fakes and teeps are just something else. Dude’s fighting IQ is up there with the greats, and he’s just getting started. Amazing channel also, we need more content from the Knowlesy Academy!!!

Haggerty is a brilliant fighter can't wait to see him back on ONE Championship
Great discipline / power control by Hag and limiting shots to head. How refreshing - clearly spent a lot of time learning from Thais!
agreed. a good intensity and knows how to spar and adapt with everyone as an individual
@@SiamBoxing a gentleman killer
the second guy gets a humbling experience! both men respectfull
its all love. thanks for watching
I thought that kid put up the best performance against John. John so entertaining to watch tho.
What a pleasure it must be to learn from Jon and his coach’s and spar him as well ,bucket list , craziest elbows and his composure beautiful to watch
I love this sparring, being able to turn the heat up, but the coach still makes sure the other fighter is ok, but still maintaining that push hard attitude.
he is a cracking coach and they have a great team
the only place you find such quality and well filmed sparrings !
thanks mate im trying to put out good quality its nice to know people are liking it.
I love the positive vibes throughout the video. Checking if the opponent is OK, complimenting the elbow catch, lots of smiling
His teep is incredible and I love the way he just rocks back to absorb other people’s
yeh hes super slick a master of the teep
Another brilliant video, I love how you can really see John think about every strike when he is sparring 🥊🥊
Glad you enjoyed it mate, you can almost see him thinking.
The professionalism from the coach and both these gents is amazing to watch.
Keep this content coming! Just amazing to watch and learn. Wish more coaches were like this.
Much appreciated!
Absolutely amazing coach, protecting sparring partners and ensuring everybody is learning without getting injured. This kind of coach is rare. 👍👍👍👍👍
i love watching pro fighters hold back and be slightly gentle, just out playing their sparring partner. Jonathan in a real fight does some serious damage!
How can you be such an awesome athlete... and still being so humble as to salute and apologize to every opponent??
Awesome to have him back at ONE after a year.

@@SiamBoxing Blue shinguard guy needs practice :). No cover / bad boxing..

Fantastic .
Great to see the UK represent this way

he is a great fighter and will help others come on leaps and bounds
OMG i'm addicted to this youtube channel
Every time I finish training and come home, seeing there is a new video.. it is a blessing. Especially THE KNOWLESY ACADEMY!

Love the speed and control Haggerty places his kick to the head :)
he is so slick with it
John haggerty is a beast! Christian’s commentary is freakin awesome also. What a gym! Would love to train here
Jonathan's setups for his headkicks are top notch
totally agree hes as slick as it gets
Can’t believe he is only 23. His skill level is so high. Can’t wait to see him back in there. Hopefully get the one title back the end of 2021
There may be a possibility that he will fight in November. We shall see. It will be good to see him back. 👊🙏
That's some High Level Sparring from these Lads..You can tell they're all World Class Fighters
i'd love to one day have chris standing there shouting NOICE, LAVLY BOYS at me haha
Haha
Next level
Going in at 6:10
thanks for watching mate
I would let him tee off on me like that in sparring hahahah🤷♂️😂
@x he is chill, if he put In effort it would be a one combo finish 🤣😂🤣 this is light sparring.
@@NoNonsenseJohnson This is not loght sparring he is throwing some good force in his hits, just compare him to everybody else... much lighter

So impressive Sparring, Impressive skills
Thanks for this video!!
your welcome bro, hes a great fighter with a great style
Jonathan haggerty vs tenshin nasukawa, sería un excelente combate.
how awesome would that be, i wish ONE would sign Tenshin. maybe a rematch with Rodtang.
Seeing the lack of power of Tenshin in comparison to Rodtang , Haggerty take the victory with relative ease with better timing in counters and the teep.
The head kicks👌🔥🔥
they just come from out of nowhere.
he keeps landing them cuz the other guy keeps going for the catch or blocks for the body kick
Another level man, all the support here from brazil
thank you, big respect to Brazil
The best fighter from The Knowlesy Academy right now. Just crazy to see how many fighters have left/stopped fighting from the gym, especially the young talent that was there.
there is a lot of young up and coming talent coming through with a lot of elite guys in there too

Yeah that’s true, but the likes of Luciano and his training partner Aminullah have left. Ask Chris about them, he would praise them both quite a lot. They were great fighters but ended up leaving,

Communicate with them about it then lol
