Kimbo Slice Gets A Lesson From Michael Jai White
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2011
- Watch carefully and learn as action movie star and martial arts expert Michael Jai White demonstrates to Kimbo Slice why the mechanics of a traditional boxing punch is flawed. Michael Jai White goes further to demonstrate the science of "non-telegraphic movement" as it relates to punching. Instead of cocking back the elbow, shifting the shoulders, stepping forward with the lead leg or winding up to get power, a non-telegraphic punch is thrown from its exact point of origin with no advance visible clues that a punch is coming.
Bruce Lee said you want your strikes to be felt before it is seen. This requires total relaxation of those muscle groups and proper body mechanics. The value in learning non-telegraphic movement is that you may face a much fast opponent, but you can actually out score the faster man due to the fact that your opponent simply cannot detect when you're about to strike. --- Practice right, train right...don't just train. - Спорт
As a 60 yo that trained in boxing at 13, karate at 16, combatives in the military, this is one of the best lessons I have seen.
Bruce Lee did that..so you know where he did get that from.
@@japekki666 dude he clearly said that floyd mayweather does this and not talking about bruce lee
@@nikkovillaver2232 yeah but reality is Bruce did this before floyd so do the math..
@@nikkovillaver2232 Read Tao of Jeet Kune Do and you will notice that he knew lots of things before anybody else..he started making that book 1970 and was published 1975 long before Floyd was not even born. You will realize he is Father of MMA.
MacheteDontTweet lying ass bitch
Legend has is that he is still explaining it to kimbo to this day.
Legend has it this is the lamest and most copied UA-cam comment out there
legend has it, 7million people are alive on earth and they would agree with you.
dmrc43 7 billion.
Braum loves poros found the fish
MonkeyAndGiraffe crabcakes are nice though wtf?
How can you not love Kimbo after watching this. Even before Michael showed him any proof that he knows how to throw a better punch kimbo was listening and attentive, he was totally open to learn even though he was such an accomplished person. But he didn’t let his ego be too much at all he was open to learn. It’s awesome
Facts
Big facts.
R.I.P. Kimbo 💪🏾🥊🥊

Omg I didnt even know....that fucking sucks...
"Timing beats speed, precision beats power" ~Connor McGregor
+jukijunk @ I enjoy Conor McGregor and find him very entertaining. However, his comment about speed and precision are wrong. I am an old timer whose been in the fight game 48 years. Perhaps younger guys were impressed by the comment, but us old timers because we know better.
THE TRUTH ABOUT TIMING
In the fight game, timing is the ability to read your opponent's movement, body position and energy properly with the aim of exploiting any weaknesses at just the right time. It's also the ability to flow with you opponent's movement without being controlled by it by doing certain things at just the right time. Ultimately, timing is the ability to properly read, measure, and capitalize on the movement of your opponent at just the right time. So, timing in and of itself is only relative to a fighters ability to put all of the other components together. If you can't put the other components together than the attribute of timing is not yet fully developed in that fighter.
TIMING + SENSITIVITY + PROPER RESPONSE
Just because a person understands what timing is, doesn't mean they know how to apply timing in relationship to the fight game. Timing is useless without sensitivity. I'm referring to tactical sensitivity which is the ability to "feel" the energy your opponent is giving you at a certain point in time and properly interpret it.
In other words, timing in and of itself is worthless if you cannot interpret the movement or energy of your opponent properly, quickly and instinctively enough to execute a proper response. A skilled Judo man understands how important it is to feel the movement of your opponent (push or pull), interpret it properly, and capitalize on it with a well executed foot-sweep, throw or take down. The same is true with a well trained Wing Chun man who has done chi sao. In both instances the Judo man and Wing Chun man can feel your energy, interpret it properly and win the game.
SO, HOW CAN YOU BEAT SPEED AND POWER?
A faster and more powerful opponent can be beat if you ---- control the distance, master the use feints, setup your combinations, clinch after scoring your own strikes, and dictate the pace. Feel free to share this information with Conor McGregor.
+jukijunk You are so right! I love what you do
+jukijunk Yeah, that shit don't mean nothin' when you're 225 pounds, my nigga.
+Raffie Quler Actually, it means a lot more when you're 225 pounds, my nigga. 225lbs coming at you at a precise point with the right timing can mean a whole lot.
+irondragonjkd Best example of the perfect "reader"of the game is Giorgio Petrosyan. I remember when he was fighting in K1 max. THe guy had such excelent technic and was so amazing at reading his opponent that he hardly ever got hit and always was able to counter properly. I think that is the most exceptional skill, to be able to read your opponent to perfection and being tactically so superior that you are so far ahead in your next moves that you completely dominate a fight. Thats what i love about some of the BJJ fighters aswell, you see them make a move which basically is the set up for what they are planning to do 5 moves later. And in that you can see who is best at the ground game as its basically a form of chess, reckognizing each others moves and anticipating them and using them to your advantage. Something i love to do when im fighting is to basically give them something to aim for, as alot of fighters when they see an "opening" they will go for it, even when its basically a trap you set for them. Whether its by holding left hand lower or when on the ground giving them a chance to change position which for me is the interlude to a submission. I believe that also is a main difference between good fighters and the best, the tactical ability to outfight and outmanouvere your opponent.
R.i.p Kimbo. You were so cool to watch. Wish we could of seen more of you before you left this world.
Yes it's true, and he seemed to be a good man, R.I.P Kimbo.

Man, MJW is so much a underrated actor. He has great acting skills but not really given a chance in big action movies. Talent Hollywood doesn't appreciate. RIP Kimbo Slice.
Did you see him play Mike Tyson? He did an amazing job
Spawn was the bomb as a kid.
It’s because he won’t wear a dress
This is one of the most concise, and well explained instructional vids I have ever seen. Too bad MJ White doesn't have a full set of them. That break light example is brilliant.

Damn speech function on iPhone.
He has a channel now and it explains quite a few things, go check him out.
Rest easy kimbo :(

No they do not, look up how many deaths are attributed to steroids.
I love how Humble and Accepting everyone was of the Advice.
When you don’t have much ego and a student of life.
The calm and patience that MJW explains and simplifies techniques is really truly captivating and intriguing! RIP to The Greatest Underground Legend The 1 The Only Kimbo Slice

Kimbo was definitely holding in tears when White was jabbing his hand lmaooo
lol
no hes not kimbo is not a gay lol
watch kimbo slice video
+Adam Elsaadi
Yeah, because you can totally tell his eyes are watering with all the pixelation from the potato camera this video was filmed on.
Quit reaching
+Madz DK It was filmed "on" a camera, or "with" a camera?
I love the car analogy. The eye picks up easier on side-to-side and up-and-down motions, that's absolutely true. An object speeding towards you is harder to detect, or at least, it's harder to estimate the distance between you and the object and how fast that object is closing that distance. This would be true for a car on the road infront of you, and all the more for short distances between two people in the context of a fight. Throwing a haymaker and putting lots of weight behind the punch, your body is doing these motions that the eye picks up on before you're even swinging your arm, making it easier to react to for the other guy. I used to watch Bruce Lee movies as a kid and one thing that always stuck with me is how fast he would jab. It's a very explosive type of punch with a lot of energy behind it, and it comes out of nowhere. Bruce Lee said to leave your hand open while doing it, and only close it and ball it into a fist right before hitting your target. Fluidity. I practiced that and learned to do that, and other people can barely react to it. I can throw it out really fast and really precise, with my fist closing like an inch or less infront of the target. You can throw it out and aim at a person's teeth and stop right infront of it, and they'd jump back as a response when it's way too late. I've never really used it in a fight, never really got into fights, but I'm very sure that such a jab would crack someone's teeth right out. Even when sparring with other kids back in the day, they never wanted to spar with me, even though I'm a small dude, because I could jab them on a biceps and they'd be walking around with a blue mark for a week. And they couldn't evade it or react to it, because it's exactly like mister White says: very difficult in close combat to react to. R.I.P. Kimbo Slice, and may Allah swt forgive Muhammad Ali's sins and accept his prayers and good deeds, Allahuma ameen.
kimbo was very humble and kind kind of the opposite of how they tried to portray him as thuggish initially.
ihatevoyager right!! Smh
Have you ever copped a backyard bbq fights DVD from the bootlegger?
He's dead now aint he, Kottonmouth Kang?
KingEightBall yo man, you got the link to that video?
We all have different sides to us. He was very confident in his ability's to fight, but also humble enough to know when he could learn from someone.
This is seriously something I watched years ago and still remember. That last analogy of the car brake lights is perfect. So accurate. Helped me win several fights
I actually tried his technique of going straight and not exposing my elbows and it works so well. Respect for guys like him.
“ if you can’t move your hand out of the way fast enough then you can’t move your face out of the way fast enough “ 😂😂
+Im_xChroma How is that funny? Can u be specific plz? Like is it not true?
The statement itself is the funny thing, not because it's false (which it isn't) but because of the way it's phrased.

Lmfao
jim jimjim try it on grandpa and get your ass whooped?
Kimbo came in so confident and then was hypnotized by the idea of being able to throw the best punch. The journey- a story of how kimbo slice single handedly took over the world by knocking out anybody that got in his way .
That was pretty much the single greatest athletic a lesson, any sport, I ever saw. You just taught me that when I play tennis I have to try and get rid of the wind up and just getting stable and wait planted and then I can stroke with my arm.
Michael Jai White is an absolute legend.
NUKE SKYW4LKER no doubt true legend

The_ Joker I think he would in a real fight
EliTheRealist1 I doubt it very much, he’d be too slow.

Kimbo is gone man... Died a couple of years ago I think. I know he died. I just don't feel like researching when. But you get the picture.
Perseverance Perseverance wow, that's absolute disrespect. You can't take 2 seconds to Google that kimbo died on June 6, 2016? If you can't respect a dead legend then I can't imagine how you treat yourself. Pityful
Are you fucking kidding me? lol!! Well first off, I love me, more than you'll ever know you! I'd like to think so based off that idiotic completely irrational comment you just made. Since when the fuck am I supposed to googling things for other people? By all means if you think I owe you, or anyone respect, when I'm not "DISRESPECTING" anything other than your shallow ass statement. Then I'll be glad to give you my paypal information, and as soon as you start compensating me for doing other peoples bidding for them. Then I'll sit here and do whatever the hell I want. Grow up dude!

Thanks everybody for watching my video. Its received well over 15 million views as of March 2018. Here's a quick tip to help you students of the fight game generate maximum power when throwing a non-telegraphic punch. I've searched the Internet for a written explanation of how to generate knockout power when throwing non-telegraphic punches as Bruce Lee did. I could not find an written step-by-step break down, so I'm doing it right here.
- - - - - - - - - -
The secret to creating maximum, knockout power behind a punch is to [generate force and add speed to it]. Speed + force = power. That's the secret. How do you actually do it? Your punch should start from a 'moderately deep stance' (don't spread your feet too far apart) allowing you the ability to pivot off your rear foot. If you're not pivoting off of that rear foot when throwing a straight punch, then you're not generating power. It's that simple.
In other words, [---the ball of your toe on your rear foot is going to pivot---] because you're generating power from pushing off the ground. Then, you're rotating your hips into the punch as your elbow drives forwards whipping your fist into the target. That phrase, 'whipping your fist into the target' is the same as punching with SNAP. Relaxing your shoulders and biceps the moment before you punch is also a key to generating speed. It's no different than trying to swat a fly in your face. Relaxation is critical.
Finally, you got to focus on striking through your actual target. Don't aim to hit the target, punch through the target. If you don't focus through the target then force is lost because the energy of the strike ends the moment your fist touches the target. This is why you see a lost of really fast punchers with no power behind the power. They haven't been taught the importance of generating power off of that rear leg and then aiming through the target.
- - - - - - - -
By the way, some of you have visited my website and know that I'm 2 time IKKA & ISKF World Light Heavyweight Karate champion,\ and a 5 time US Nationals and Pan American Games karate champion. I've trained in Jeet Kune Do under the great Dan Inosanto and Richard Bustillo for nearly 40 years. Both of those gentlemen were close friends of the late Bruce Lee and fully qualified to teach Lee's art to others. I'm not bragging. I'm simply sharing over 40 years of wisdom with the next generation of champions. Enjoy!
A heavy chain instead of an iron bar.
Your video and words, show both, wisdom and experience . And if you trained with Sensei Inosanto, its all said . Domo arigato for sharing !!!
You earing money from the views ?
thanks
There's a lot of ways to explain martial arts, but only one way to show it. Here we have to explain, so visualise this... Bruce Lee was so fast at punching but it wasn't only about his speed, it was his technique. The Gung-Fu punch is designed to be sly and unnoticeable. You're not twisting your wrist like in most westernised martial arts systems; and as you aptly put, it's about body mechanics as well. Bruce had the famous 1 inch punch which not many people know how to describe. Notice in any of these videos with him showing this punch how he has to plant and centre himself before he moves. That's because he's using his WHOLE BODY to direct the energy for that punch.. from the feet up the legs through the torso and arm. Think of a snake coiling itself up ready to strike. All you see is the snake readying itself, never knowing when the strike comes. So a non-telegraphic punch involves little obvious movement, and with Bruce's speed he could execute this so well. As soon as you use your shoulder to move a punch, the target knows about it and is ready to either block or avoid. Also not only the shoulder, but the elbow.. as you were explaining about how a car uses brake lights to signal, an elbow is just as effective to signal as a shoulder, only the time to react is shortened. hide the elbow, hide the shoulder, and they never see the punch.
I shot this on the set of Blood And Bone... Great movie. Michael rocks.
what's the film about?
no you didnt :/
Film is about michael getting into street fights for money and beating ass
Passzív Milliomos i watched that its good

Bruce Lee
This shit was hella informative
Yeah reminded me of Bruce Lee, and his no wasted movement philosophy.
For real, if you fought like this against mayweather you could win cause all he does is read your punches and counter. and a punch like that is the only way anyone is going to hit him
mryupjup Get your head out of celebrities asses
Anthony Merritt Yeah, I kind of knew some of this from studying Bruce Lee and his 1 inch punch but the way Michael explained this was great.
Hey you should try it against Mayweather and come back and let us know how you fare. I believe in you bro.
Really like what Michaeli White said...."it's not about how fast or hard you hit, it's about technique"
It's always good to see people sharing stuff....RIP man loved those street fights....real raw and yet most of the time shake hands afterwards
Is this why they say fastest way from point A to B is a straight line?R.I.P. Kimbo.
Yeah, but the punch actually lacks power when its not using the energy from body that you get when your shoulder recoils. How much its lacking depends on the person though.
Don't need a lot of power to knock someone out. Like Conor McGregor said "timing beats speed' precision beats power.
these guys act too hard. if anyone bothered me i'd just say, I shop at dollar tree for food & target. that's how you let everyone know you're tough.
Toto Phandhamaly
Iceiam Jabs aren't meant to have much power behind them. You throw jabs at your opponent's face and he'll put his arms up to protect his face, thus leaving his abdomen wide open. Then give him a full power kidney blow or two and he'll drop his guard, leaving his face wide open to a KO cross. Boxing is like a painful game of chess. Intelligence and experience are as important as strength, endurance, etc.
RIP KIMBO you will always be known as one of the toughest street fighters.
The way Michael hits it's been taught in Karate. No matter how everyone else belittles Karate it is the basics in hitting. You can easily switch from Karate to Kick Boxing at any time once you master the true path of the hitting/kicking. Look at Semmy Schilt.
I would love for my son to be trained by Michael Jai White or someone with his level of talent .... This is too nice. Rest Easy Kimbo !
When I trained in top ten karate studio in new haven Ct, Michael was an instructor when Lary Rogers was working those days as a fireman. Michael jay white was the best teacher. The guy has multiple black belts in different disciplines. I still remember his lessons. The guy IS great!!!
Not RIP but REST IN VICTORY.
For what he accomplished with his time limit and the fact that he went against the grain including stereotypes, then held his massive family down you dont see or hear about that.
Say what you want about his cause of death he went hard and had a true cause, impacted a wide range of people, and thats what it is in the end, Influence and legacy!
Well put
Indeed well put, it's just this year man, so many great performers and innovators passing in 2016 is gutting nad thoughts go out to Kimbos family at this time... but I really like that turn of phrase REST IN VICTORY. Very apt.
Defiantly a good influence, but a fabricated one. He was resilient but not a good fighter. Regardless he's inspired many people.
what, what u class a good fighter, maybe not the best mma, but fight he could do very well.
Yeah! no peace for him
MJW Is the most underrated Martial artist. I like him very much as Bronze Tiger in the Arrowverse
My dad got into far too many fights when he was younger, and he was a smart man. It's all about deception. He was a large bloke but he could move like lightning. Don't give your enemy any
foreknowledge. The lessons being taught here are extremely effective as one who has used them and been taught them by my dad.
I like this straight forward approach. It actually expends less energy than a longer throw and every hit adds more stunning effect to the opponent. That's a very intelligent fighting technique.
+USNVA A lot of great champions have awesome techniques in striking. Like for example remember the fight with Anderson Silva v.s. Vitor Belfort? When they put the replay in slow motion, it showed Vitor try to blow Silvas kick, First Vitor blocked high, then they showed him drop his arm low thinking he was gonna kick his sides, then all of a sudden it was too late for Vitor to block his face/chin and got knocked out. This example is the same example in certain fights. Mayweather does the same thing too, a lot of his punches are hard to see because he barely telegraphs his moves.
+zero11322 I don't fight on the street or competitively, but his idea supports my jab techniques. This was how I would throw punches back in my younger days in bars. I was a sailor once upon a time,. We [my friends and I] fought Marines whenever they wanted to start shit for no reason. Most of the time we would start out punching and usually within 30 seconds later end up wrestling to the finish. We twice got our asses handed to us out of three encounters in four years... but we fought for respect, win or lose. I greatly understood my jab potential during those fights. These were stunning blows, but not quite enough to finish a guy off.
USNVA Yeah striking takes a ton of practice and technique to know someone out cold. Mainly because of the precision, speed and power. Some people are fast, but they don't got much power in their striking, some are powerful hits but very slow at striking, sometimes even people who are fast are not accurate.
But nice to know you guys had a great time while fighting. That's why i always suggested to schools here that they teach MMA or other forms of self defense and combat for their P.E. classes. Cause ya never know if some of those kids may have to defend themselves against someone faster, bigger and stronger. Sometimes potential enemies mite even have slight experience in fighting. So its good to teach MMA and various forms of combat and self defense, also teaching kids fundamentals and basics of grappling and striking, etc...
I remember I had two friends back in high school and like one was physically taller, stronger and faster. But the other one was still strong and faster but a lot slimmer but he would always beat me other friend in boxing.
+zero11322 Some of the best times I had fighting were when I was only 16-17 and sparring with my older brother and his so called 'Tae Kwon Do' friend in the back yard at my Moms. It would be about 8 pm or later at night so nobody in the neighborhood could see us. They would always start out "two on one" with me being the one. My brother's friend [thankfully] was not very good at karate. His kicks were very predictable. The kicks "always" came from his dominant right foot. One night, realizing his strategy, it gave me a few opportunities to try countering his predictability. I started with the quick jab a few times to the face, quickly crouch and elbow in hard hyperextending their knees at just the right moment and taking them completely out of the fight. I could hardly believe I won the sparring matches that night!!
USNVA My brother was actually really good when he fought. He was always able to see me telegraph moves even when I tried to not be obvious about it. and he always told me it was because I didn't practice and train a lot so my technique was still bad and able to be telegraphed. He even told me my eye movement, facial expression, shoulders, footwork and legs gave off a signal of what i would obviously do.

I always noticed that about floyd mayweather even before he was a big named fighter. Dude was highly deceptive and good at concealing his intentions
It helps when your father is Roger mayweather
When you play the vid back from the 1st punches, you see the swing in Michaels shoulder... Kimbo dodges them as he read the shoulder movement 1st... You can clearly see Michaels point. Clever !!!
Bruce Lee talked about this technique decades ago..its nothing new

Kimbo seemed to be humble and you could always tell that he was eager to learn. I enjoyed watching the arc of his mma career. If only he had started years earlier
rip kimbo slice.
DStyleBoxing, you get the dumbass comment of the year award! Micheal Jai White has been a boxer and martial artist his WHOLE LIFE! He's been in the ring with boxers and legendary karate fighters...and holds his own. He was chosen to portray Mike Tyson in the movie, "Tyson". His boxing skill was remarkable. Did I mention his 8 different earned black belts? Or the long list of tournament championships? Search his name and tournaments right here on UA-cam and you will find videos of him competing in high-level karate kumite. Finally, Bruce Lee even promoted the same "non-telegraphic punch" theory in his JKD curriculum. In the "Tao of Jeet Kune Do", Bruce Lee calls it, non-telegraphic punching.
His style is nothing like Tyson's. Perhaps he's talented enough to imitate that style though.
Herbin' Avenger
Tyson was unique because he was Tyson himself. Powerful and fearless with good defense. Everybody can only imitate that.
Non telegraphic punches, this is a brilliant concept that I will practice from now on. Thanks bro.
Get 'em LOL
irondragonjkd Michael Jai White's theory works quite well. I was telling a bunch of boxer friends of mine about this video and demonstrated the same results. I might add that I haven't done any fight training in at least 10 years.... We did laugh at the fact it's so simple it works....
This is what we're tought in karate. I love and practice boxing as well and I happen to have a little edge for this very reason. Great little one-to-one class. RIP Kimbo
When I was younger I didnt know who guy was. Now I'm baffled 😂 never woulda thought

Kimbo's a chill dude
+TacSav253 and tough as nails
***** so ur saying he's not tough cause hes letting mjw hit his hand and it hurts? hold ur hand out and let me punch it and see how it feels. lol
+thaistomp Probably wouldn't feel a thing, honestly.
+TacSav253 I'll say he's chill because a lot of big tough guys just wouldn't be able to stand there and learn - they would have to shoot back some deflecting comment like "well, yeah, but it's not a real situation" or whatever. He takes it well, realizes he's learning something, and shuts his mouth and opens his mind.
Heather Spoonheim Exactly this. I admire him because he was a hotshot in the streets, but got shut down fast in the professional circuit. Instead of giving up, he's swallowed his pride and started to learn. At his age and with his background, that's pretty damn cool :)
You can tell Kimbo slice was a really good Guy to be friends with but he was a bad guy to be your enemy
This video is priceless with the information we are learning from it. Some people pay a lot of money to learn this and here we are learning it for free, the internet is awesome.
rip Kimbo!

Wasn't he Spawn already?
Michael is very well spoken and great at explaining. Good video.
Mike explains things where you can actually comprehend, R.I.P Kimbo🥊
Great video not only did we all learn something so did a pro fighter and thank you for posting
Big shout out to the guy in the end who fucked up the conversation and killed the video.
John Gotti Jr bruh right
John Gotti Jr But them trade secrets though!
We missed out on the final pieces of advice.
Not really.
Best lesson i've learned from this video in 2013 and now its 2019
MJW is a legit fighter and such an underrated actor. One of the greats.
What really matters is not the years in your life but the life in your years. RIP Kimbo, you lived like a lion in your short life.
great video to learn from thank you Mike rest in power kimbo always be a legend
This will forever be one of my favorite videos
This video proves that Kimbo is a humble man that’s thirsty to always learn. 💪🏻
Sounds like Denzel Washington lol
haha yeah😂
Chris Murray
Lol I thought that. That iconic deep voice he has in films must be put on!
Rest easy Kimbo your a legend in the street fighting scene and a good humble guy that just did his thing. Watched your videos when I was very young. Rip Kimbo slice
Rip kimbo the street fighting legend🙌🏽🔥
“No why you keep getting hit? You lead with your shoulder and when your shoulder moves I see it. You’ll be quick and direct, utilizing chj! The result is power!” - (No Retreat No Surrender 1986)
That's pretty interesting stuff. I've noticed in my own matches that when I pop a jab from a standstill, it lands 90% of the time. Really neat to see a master put it in perspective.
+Cody King Similar thing with Mayweather actually. That is the reason why Mayweather and even Ali always loved to use jabs for everything. Jabs are harder to react to, they are fast, and they are harder to telegraph. Plus if a another boxer or opponent comes in with something heavy or powerful, they will always be open to numerous types of strikes/ counters or openings. Plus with jabs u have more options in movement, and u cans till knock opponents out with Jabs, like if you counter someone with a jab.
+Cody King I've always noticed that when I pop a jab, regardless of whether it's from a standstill or not, it pulls a rib muscle and dislocates my elbow 90% of the time. Just like when I go to sweep the leg. Calf muscle rolls up on me like a venetian blind. Dear lord I've gotten fat in my old age...
+R&S RC First comment I've seen here that I can relate to. Haha.
R&S RC LOL.... it comes to us all, my friend. I am 30 years old now and in great shape. Some day, I will know your plight very well. Far be it from me to laugh at you on that one... my day is coming I'm sure.
***** Xbox 360, get it right nigga
Rest easy Kimbo Slice
LOVE IT 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Nd Kimbo Took The Knowledge Like A Boss 😤 #Respect
Valuable lesson, pure gold.
Very enlightening about depth perception triggers are not as quick as angular displacement perception triggers.
This is Bruce lee technique!
Robin Bauer ....1 inch punch?
Its from Wing Chun, which is the art bruce lee studied in at first.
Bruce Lee.... God here we go. I can bet you if he tried any of that movie shit on let's say a boxer, the boxer would laugh and probably take lees head off.
Thomas Owusu-Abayie yeah I’m going to have to call bullshit on that
DAT Boi - Lee wouldfuck anyone up in a fight, and use half the energy to do it. He had plenty of street fights, but nothing competitive that is on record.
Rest In Power Kimbo Slice 🖤👑🙏
He Was a Great fighter/Brawler ❗❗
Although not in the same context, someone asked me to take a coin from their hand.
First time, I tried to do it quickly and failed. Obviously the reach is slower than the reaction.
I tried a second time and quite calmly, but not entirely slowly, took the coin out of his hand with ease.
I guess the thing is, not just relying on your own action, but the other person's reaction as well.
RIP KIMBO!
RIP Kimbo, he was such a nice guy
Butters Stotch well I met him at a greet and meet and talked to him for 25 minutes, cool guy to me
FUPA LORD except you didnt lol
FUPA LORD yeah everyone thought he was some jerk , even a couple of mma fighters thought the same thing until they met him and he changed their perception of him , he was one of the nicest people ever though
Butters Stotch he went to my boxing gym. The guy was actually really chill and nice. Left us too soon
not really
Excellent instruction on constriction of movement
blood and bone, such a good movie.
MOS3S awesome movie
Kimbo Slice Gets A Lesson From Denzel Washington
You're a fucking idiot.
This is so funny, Jacob learn to take a joke 😂😂
Well it's true; first thing I thought when I saw his face and heard his voice. D.W should do a boxing film and this bloke will be his double.
Denzel???
You're not funny
