I studied Tai Chi Chuan with his mother in the nineties. She really is incredible. Didn't see Donnie's work till later. She was not a fan of martial arts movies, thinking them fakery. This is coming from a ninth generation lineage holder of Grand master Fu Wing Way. I think he's done very well and inspired many to excellence.
Mike Tyson: "All of you were worried that Donnie will get injured. Nobody cared about me." haha
Nevr U worry "Iron-M(-an)-ike", I'd be absolutely careful not da git on yer wrong side when I'm in yer company, Heck ! one 'da be crazy or drunk to get U swinging. For anyone who is not acclimated (hardened) in enduring high-impact hits from some Heavyweight Class - Full Contact Sports' background, like for say Muay Thai or Kyokushin Karate, evn these for that matter wud still go down from just any of Mike's "Ram-Rod" like jabs alone, whatmore when.., say one took a well placed hit to the Ol' beanball (face/head). One likely will ave died instantly.
Now kith lol
Heard Donny’s elbow fractured Mike’s finger when he blocked Mike’s punch.
@@chickwithaguitar6876 The elbow block was one I saw in Hajime No Ippo and in that anime the elbow actually fractured a boxer's finger bone too.
@@Stormy77 the fight was too good between Eiji date vs Ricardo Martinez but in the end, Martinez break his fist through his elbow block
am proud to be his fan
Me too
Ashwin MP so am i
Not me
I wish, this great man gives me that opportunity to give basic lessons on martial arts
That story about him hospitalising 8 men was indeed exaggerated. He actually beat up 18 men. (lol jk)
AND he would be humble about it anyway; as he tried to be lowkey..... I knew about the piano; Bruce Lee was a champion Che Cha Dancer
He beat up 7 of them and helped the 8th with a anxiety related asthma attack.
Thug: Pshh, it’s just a movie, he can’t beat all of us!
*Seconds later*
News: Professional martial artist Donnie Yen sent 8 thugs to the hospital.
Me: monkaS
LOL Epic comment !!!!
He also plays the Violin and Guitar. Although Mismatched Couples was briefly mentioned, his astute skills as a Hip Hop Dancer (multiple styles) should have been emphasised more. :) Likewise, him knowing Parkour should've been mentioned.
damn IP chun wearing the Airmaxs
Donnie Yen, one of my favorite actors in doing martial art techniques watching Chinese series drama with addition of an English subtitles 4 viewers watching drama can understand. Besides the film has clear screen can see even the backgrounds of each sceneries. Latest movie watched him first time in a theater w/ close relatives was, "Star Wars". Not all mothers are interferrings but his mother maybe was a widow & he's her only son. Good thing for her thinking for his future in case she's not around, he can earn his living by transferring her talents with him on a strictly basis was the only way kids would learn. Jet Li & Jackie Chan were his close friends, right? Thanks for showing about his upbringing 2 us, for his experiences in life are ups & down but able 2 survived hardship.He's flexible due to maybe of his mother's love care.
Well, it's awkward when he received a worst injury coming from a romantic comedy film than his other action films.
Well, MISMATCHED COUPLES includes a fight scene which required Yen to leap out of a boxing ring and hitting the wall and on to the ground. It went wrong and as a result, he got his left shoulder dislocated from the impact of hitting the wall
Thank you mama Yen for being strict on your boy
He is one of the best. He ranks right up there with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan.
He hospitalised 8 men my Donnie yen 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Why do these strong guys so well-rounded and talented? Jackie Chan sings professionally, Donnie Yen plays piano professiomally. ☺☺☺
Asians. Get you a Asian man that can play, fight, love and have fun at the same time! And some have some big.... you know.
Sending 8 thugs to hospital?
Yea right that sounds legit.
Hong Kong gangsters don't go to hospital. They have their own inner circle doctors.
He did say it was blown out of proportion so its not like he claimed it happened exactly like that.
He is a talent wen it comes to real martial arts, meanwhile loved n wud like to get d instrumental towards d end of this short clip.
good information
I Seek you,Sifu,Donnie Yen
Talk about action movies he is the best
I notice it's always those who probably haven't trained in a art calling out other people saying that person's training is fake or what have you and its worse when they're actors like Donnie here. Like i feel like these people genuinely believe actors cant or don't learn how to fight at some point, which is stupid. Like you'll call Donnie's training fake on the internet be we know you wont challenge him hell you probably wont challenge Jason Mamoa simply because you don't know what they know. Donnie has a Grandmaster for a mother come on now. You think she didn't teach her son how to handle himself if something goes off? Being an actor doesn't mean they cant fight.
donnie yen i like you
Mr Yen played down beating up the gangster so they could save face! Respect the legacy 🙏🏽
wtf? Michael Ryan? i'm a Filipino and didn't even knew that ! xD
PiNgGoYsKieE It was his first movie "Drunken Tai Chi" they named him Michael Ryan.
Fun Facts: Jet Li's name came also in the Philippines, before it was Jet Lee. 😀
TT Boy Thank you for that ! I tell you I didn't even knew that, AND I'M A FILIPINO...What a shame. XD
PiNgGoYsKieE I'm also a Filipino, maybe i'm just a little older than you. 👍🏽
TT Boy That figures..:D
Love you
as if we were going to be worried, he is fucking IRON mike ahahah
Donnie yen real life Kung fu action fighter
Best actor
especially the last track that was uesd?
The only thing I know about him is that he ain't got no high school diploma, however he is a very successful celebrity
He graduated at Boston University?
10 things...and you only listed 1.
if you want to put 10 things, put down the damn numbers man
👊😄👊
Has he ever been in a real live fight in his life?
fact no.2, Donnie hospitalize 8 ppl for their harrasement to his gf
he sent 8 people to the hospital in a fight, he also knows a shit tonne of martial arts, martial arts training is fighting
prisonerofearth He grew up in Boston, in a tough neighborhood known in his youth as the "Combat Zone". He was known to have fought then, I don't know the details as he was still a teen.
would be fun if someone videotape his fight with the gangster.. would really love to see him in real furious fight injuring all those gangsters...
I would Like To Him To My Master 👊🏾❤️
I killed 28 men in one punch true story.
911 likes :0 , i'll be the first one to ruin it >:)
SynnCryTech 3 What a dick move.
i know he is master of bullshito art which works only on movies
suuuuuuuurrrrre
@@OtaniNoAsagi yes suure, bullshito for bullshito naive peoples
@@Mr11ESSE111 uh huh. So out of curiosity since you're judging the prowess of a man with a grandmaster for a mother who taught him. What style or forms do you know? Have you actually trained or are just saying hes bullshit because he just so happens to also be an actor?
@@OtaniNoAsagi have you actually live in real world not in bullshito movies world where whimpy 60kg guy defeat 10-20+ mma guys at once
@@Mr11ESSE111 Yes I do actually and you dodged my question completely.
Donnie Yen. Aka the only good thing to come out of Disney Star Wars
I actually liked Rogue One. Thought it was the best of the lot although beating Force Awakens isn't that hard
The mandolorian
Its good he was taught by IP Chun to play Ip, brings authenticity to a true storey, Donnie is great and deserves to be amongst Bruce and the IPs. Legend.
George Taylor yes so very true
Totally with you on that George!
I'm sure that during that 9 months, Yen spent time asking about Chun's father. I'm sure Donnie learned a lot about who Yip really was and what he was like, at least through the eyes of his son. That's probably another reason why his incarnation of Yip Man is my favorite of any Ip man shows/movies. Because /his version/ has a very strong sense of authenticity to it; a ring of truth.
Ski who is he
Hi thanks for your Kung fu Doorbusters
Donnie Yen is the type of guy you make the mistake to underestimate him and suddenly you are flying in the air , you land on the floor without having a clue when he actually attacked you and he is like walking normally towards you asking you " awww did you fell , need any help ???" Okay ...okay apart from jokes now he is fast and very skilled and i love his roles especially when his face expression is calm like as if he was reading a book but he beats the shit out of his opponents ...i mean WTF bro ??? No temper at all ??? I admire him for the role he played as Ip Man .
He was Wushu champion also wushu teaches you body to mind awareness not really a used for contact, but he also a 9th dan in taekwondo which is a person who is unstoppable on his feet anything passed a black belt is experts due to the amount of time you spend and how hard you work on your Martial Art
Ip chun says yen learned faster than anyone hes taught before. Yen is too damn good.
Donnie Yen still looking good after all these years, if not better...
with number 2 wouldn't it be funny if Donnie said "blown out of proportion, i only hospitalized 7, the 8 one died before he got there"
hahahahaha Epic comment !!!!
Lol
i love this man proud to be a fan
Chuck Norris has DY poster on wall.
My ex met Tyson back in the late 90's. She remembered shaking his hand, and told me that his hand felt like stone. The fact that that Donnie Yen's elbow could break Mike Tyson's finger made my jaw drop.
he is so awesome yet so humble a true martial artist indeed
Donnie's mother - "...pulling him out of bed at 5:30am starting at the age of 9 and started training..." *o* Wish I had a mother like that , or wish I did not. lol
That's how Asia mom is
i wish my mom was like that. they didn`t even let me take martial art until i was a teenage. i always wanted to do karate at the age of 10
What a mother... she surely knew best for his son, Donnie.
My first Donnie Yen movie was "Once a upon a time in Chine" with Jet li.
The final scene with Donnie's antagonist character battling Jet using "The wet whip staff" was classic.
Mine was flash point
Donnie Yen is the BEST..
this man is class act, and no doubt one of the best martial artist out there, a serious kicking ass machine.
I wish I could merry a man like him
Ain't kids WONDERFUL? as a father you tell them what to do all their life from brushing their teeth saying their prayers do their homework don't stay out late. now you got the kids telling Daddy dear what to do and calling him crazy if he doesn't.. like I said kids are wonderful.
I will gladly put my name in the hat here for Master Yen. Master Donnie Yen has done such a great job in his work as the late Grandmaster Yip Man. Master Yen eye hand coordination is so good...But hey let's not kid ourselves here. Mr. Yen has been practicing Kung fu in his own words since he was 9 years old as his mother is a Master in , I believe Wushu and Tai chi. so for Mr. Yen to pick up the Wing Chun system probably wasn't to difficult for Mr. Yen. So as a fairly new student myself to the Yip Man Wing Chun system at my old age of 60 I respect and appreciate what Master Yen does at his 50 something age as he gives me the motivated to move forward with the Wing chun.
Glad to hear that. Hope you progress well in your Wing Chun practice.
Respect the man, he deserves it. I do
i know everything about Donnie i have watching movies with Donnie since Tiger cage 2 in 1990
how bout grammar?
KaaruKUN 16 I guessing his reply will be "She doin fine is 92 old".
i've watched movies with Donnie? since 1990? a movie called Tiger cage 2?
Max Zeven 6
I seen his first ever movie drunken tai chi
Did not know about the piano....could have been any instrument....they teach patience, and he has plenty.
I love the little grin that both Donnie Yen and Jet Li have.....when you see it you know the lesson is about to start!!! 😀😀
Or when IP Man rolls up his sleeves.
Its yen's MOM whose the BEAST. I'm sure Grandmaster Bow-sim Mark occasionally had whip Ip man's ass because his bow wasnt low enough
He is the one who helped Capcom to choreographed onimusha's cutscenes. Not only the cutscenes, maybe the moves of the protagonist.
Youth teaches us anger,old age teaches us wisdom and the ability to use the skills we never thought possible
I've learned some cool things about my boy Donnie Yen.
Ip Chun is 96 years old this year.
Thanks very much for this. I have always thought that Donnie doesn't get the degree of appreciation he deserves. He's a great guy, quite humble, and embodies the spirit of martial art. I remember watching his mom do demos back in the 70's and have watched him throughout his career.
Phillip Buechner He deserves what he got. No doubt for that. But he is not really humble over the China side. He had the history of changing script to less famed actors and taking over their scenes. Wu Jing and Zhao Wen Zuo had loss their roles in Sat Po Long and Special ID respectively because of him. Wu Jing even publicly said that Donnie purposely hitting him hard in one of the fight scene. He is not humble, he is dictator in movie making.
also a great bboy back in the day. Probably can still bust out some moves.
@@Laoyezi123 any info on him and cissy wang? is he good with her?
@@niaedmonds3342 I think he is a good family man as well. Just that he is really a bad dictator on set.
@@Laoyezi123 wow, well thats messed up. At least he is ok with his wife. Does he and his oldest son have a good relationship?
Lol...."Michael Ryan"
Dude!! That's not even freaking close!! You're not supposed to "bad lip read" their names for post!! 😂
And they totally gave up on Yukari Oshima xD
Well we have a lot of stage names in the philippines
the one thing that i didn't know when my friend and one guy on UA-cam says that Donnie yen was in a Night Club with his girlfriend but i thought to myself it just a joke, but it wasn't until i did some Research about it and it says that the part of the Night Club was a real thing about Donnie yen Getting to a fight with some Gang that tried to mess with Donnie yen girlfriend. But i guess that the News was real and i was Such an Idiot. But don't get me wrong it not like some people knows, but like me until now. And i think the News Research says that Donnie yen girlfriend told the News reporter and she said that Donnie yen was the fastest fighter ever just to save her life from those gang, and one thing i did tried to tell everybody and they didn't believe me until i give them the paper to see and it was a true story about Donnie yen getting into a real fight. So for me is that Donnie yen is my Biggest Martial artist fan ever just to know.
I love Donnie Yen his one of my favorite martial artist
I love ❤️ his movies 🎥 because he is not a bitch he don’t have sex at the movies 🎥 and I am not gay🤗and I am a master of fighting so I love ❤️ those movies 😍
I knew that he is an real life action hero
Didn't know he initially turned down being in the Star Wars Saga. Donnie Yen is masterful in any role.
Tip DONT MESS WITH DONNIE YEN
Mr Yen
Such a gentleman and icon
I love D Yen, but this has to be the WORST "10 things you didn't know" about anyone. It was things I didn't know but you would think that the things listed would be facts way more significant about his life/career. This should've been on 100 things you didn't know about D Yen & these would've been # 91-100 ... Lol
Everyone has a story!
This was eye opening. I also studied martial arts very young though growing up in boys homes. Then as I got older I trained more seriously. I got more into dance and music because I had joined the military and felt that it was all leading me towards violence. Now many years later I’m more balanced.
In an interview on Iron Monkey.. Donnie said: if u can't do the same kick in frame for the camera over and over.. go home. I used to think back in the nineties that Donnie was Arrogant.. but in the end he has the hardest and best scenes... only riveld by Sammo Hung. His fights with jetli, Sammo, Wu Jing, Collin Chou omg. His more modern movies like SPL Special ID, Kungfu Jungle, Flash Point they rock the shit out of disbelievers. These are portraying Donnie. Donnie has it. Ip man is a beautifull movie but limited his style. Go watch SpL iron Monkey and once upon a time in China 2. To see Donnie's skills.
He's one of the greatest
the fact he learned from ip mans son to play ip man.... noice
So I guess everyone knows he can sing and dance really well too.
Michael Ryan wtf Philippines
so funny!!
It's the thing they called "Localization" which the distributors and publishers changes some elements on a movie, TV Series, or even Video games to something they think the locals of the target country can easily understand. This practice have been rampant In the 90's or earlier and it's being made in both ways Asian-Movies-shipped-to-West-or-Europe and or English-Movies-shipped-to-non-English-countries. There are still a few publishers who are doing this today.
Not Aqmal,,,filipinos love changing names of foreign actrs,, i don't know why,,,it's a shame 'cause i'm a filipino,,,and i don't like that...'cause they give strange names,,,very far from the true name of the person involve.
Watch "Flash Point" and "Kung Fu Killer"
Hospitalized 8 men. Well rip Mike tyson🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
True martial artist don't brag about how good they are we know what we are capable of...
I really enjoyed this video, thank you. the music was nice too.
I remember my childhood my favorate international actor michael ryan
Hermosas Fotos Humilde Me Encanta todas sus peliculas Donnie Yen el mejor un Saludo de España soy De Bolivia
His story of him learning wushu is. Like Jin kazami
yes i remembered it, he is Michael Ryan here in Philippines. he is my 2nd favorite chinese actor next to Jet Li
This is a great video: Donnie Yen is so under-rated, in spite of a plethora of Music, Acting, and real Martial Arts skills. He is also a badass father and I am certain a friend whom you will ever need. I remember seeing Donnie Yen in a comedy-martial art film Drunken Tai Chi (1984): Did you know that he can actually moonwalk and pop? Back in those days, only the best and most talented pop-lock, robot, dancers where on Soul Train and The Moonman Connection.
Donnie Yen places his family first, and if that has affected his place on the best martial artist scale...fine. I would rather have family than fame. A wise person once said, "Is it better to do what you enjoy and never make a living?" and "Do what you hate, make a lot of money than buy whatever makes you happy."
Donnie Yen has found enlightenment...balance...he is the best model of the result of hard work and faith. I have no doubt his mother is smiling in heaven. Thank you Uther for highlighting Donnie Yen, his name is very easy to pronounce, and Bruce Lee swipes his nose whenever he makes a movie.
a country named after a Spanish king gives foreign actors English names - Michael Ryan/Cynthia Luster 😄😄😄 - Donnie looks more a 'Juan' to me
Phillipines: whats your name?
Immigrant: my name is marisa ogawa
Phillipines:.................you are karen june
LOL..yours is a good one..
or:
Philippines: Whats your name, sir?
Donnie Yen..Ehmm..I am actually Donnie Yen..
Philippines..: after a pause..Ok Mr. Michael Ryan, here is your visa..Enjoy your stay..
:-))
And one thing i was glad that my friend told me about Donnie yen was getting into a fight with gang member, but i say in my school who will fuck with a person that does know martial art, and who will fuck with a person that is sooo famous and does movie even though you don't recognize his or her face and you fuck with the Wrong person even though you commit a crime that you did on purpose just to mess with someone that didn't even do anything to you. And like i say to my friend and bullies just to understand how people will see is just to understand in real fighting is felt in real life when you mess with someone that knows Martial art just like me.
Repent before its to late Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior I love my holy spirit God bless you all Amen
All i know is that his skills are actually legit… cuz appearantly he sent 8 people to the hospital before he was even a celeb.
Guapo Donnie Yen QUE DIOS les bendiga
8? I could have swear it was 10...
P/S: It’s just a joke
Donnie Yen: I dont know how many people itll take to kick my ass but 8 definitely isnt it.
*Ten things some of you don’t know about Donnie
From Philippines: I know him by the name "Donnie Yen". I never knew he was actually "Michael Ryan". Yup
He beat 8 men and then his mum beat him because it's rude to beat people. 😊
