[11mac11s]

[ajm8096]

nice vid, may be a stupid question but it looked like you were training with real knifes?

[bossman12334]

what about people with disabilities in a wheel chair?

[xALAMIDx]

that was great!

[TheFr1ch]

0:45 the heart ripper? lol

[TacticalPie]

[lust4nonedrummer321]

reminds me of Kuntao Dumpag knife fighting

[GenocideWhun]

Libre means "FREE" in the Philippines ;)

[BlackFoxSion]

Good job !!

[WittersAkita]

Bloody awesome. Amazing guys and gal. A bit of keysi fighting system in there aswell. Very impressed with the defense, striking and biting techniques.

Truly a great fighting art.

[retek666999]

nice vid!

I've begun to deal with FCS Kali for 2 months and i recognized some moves what i was learned. That "Foreman cover" at '35 secs looks like practical. I'm doing JKD-Kick-Boxing for years and i never met with this kinda block. l always learn something new. :-) Great! Panantukan and Kali are wonderful! I wish good luck for you!

[biglmiguel]

awesome video...good technique guys...im impressed. its very similar to the way i was trained and some of things ive developed over the years...keep up the good work. (jkd)

Don't bring a knife to a gun fight. That's pretty cool Choreography, wonder what a real fight would look like. "stab, "tab" both people bleeding out. One barely lives.

[librecombatives]

@Composer1777 I've done free sparring with one of the guys in the video. Try to reach into a running blender and you'll have a pretty good idea what its like fighting them.

[shengchenfan]

Love it.

[Last0neStand1ng]

i would not want to fight any of these people

[jmjmjm97]

@Last0neStand1ng not unless you wanna leave without an ear.

[cheneyxxxxx]

[forkedroad]

[TotalKombatArts]

awesome video guys

[M4st3rofnothing]

nice song^^ great job on the vid

[metroidTamer010]

So is that how you were trained?

[mrCrispy725]

EYYYYY best song.

[DaimyoD0]

Beautiful presentation.

And I fuckin love Hollywood Undead.

[andreikamiKaze]

0:29 tysons technique

[Rapist87]

This style intrests me. I've studied several styles over the years and this looks like it might be pretty useful. I wouldn't want to try and stab any of them anyhow

[Sherdog2009]

save yourself the time and energy and buy a gun.

[johnorson]

Can't carry a gun in most places and they're more expensive than knives. Plus guns are loud. Death by stabbing is pretty common in the slums of the Philippines, happens daily.

[Rapist87]

Sounds good, but at that distance I'd put my money on the knifer. Check out the stats released by the FBI

[schizobipolarjoe]

guns are for pussys, any one can shoot some one. it takes skills to learn how to use a blade.

peki from the philippines is a good style to learn.

[HYBRIDCOMBATIVES]

@schizobipolarjoe that was a pretty inaccurate comment there bud. I teach Krav Maga,Kali and firearm defensive tactics. Proficiency in all ranges of combat defines a warrior.

[sigmacombatsystems]

There was a study not too long ago where trained police officers couldn't draw their sidearms from unobstructed holsters before a knifer could cover 21 feet. It also depends on the targets you're shooting at. During WWII only about 15% of riflemen fired their weapons, due to ineffective targets. You also have to worry about gun retention, bystanders, and malfunctions. Knives don't jam, overpenetrate, or run dry. Firearm training is just as complicated and time consuming as any other martial art.

[duradero9]

0:47 ah, the deadly boob-grab

[elira67]

@duradero9 the "purple nurple"...lol

[fatalityproductionsz]

wow hard core man right on

[G4Patriot]

what song is this? and by who?

[LibreFighting]

The song is "City" by Hollywood Undead.

[cy472]

Did you developed this in our country, The Philippines? cool! Philippine Slum style at its best!

[BUDAISEI88]

@LibreFighting I have seen a lot of shit in youtube bout people that teach you how to fight in the streets and stuff like that, but this is NOT one of those, I have some experience and as some one with field experience I can tell you guys are as real as it gets, nice vid.

[PiperSystem]

Awesome stuff! Once again I am so impressed with what you do. Again, your empty hand techniques just blow me away, as do your drills and energy. Dynamic stuff, state of the art. And your knife work is on the cutting edge. Keep up the amazing work you do, you lead the pack and you set the pace for others to follow.

[rrkali]

it was a good and a highly recommend system. I very rarely to say a word to any video here but you rock me Guys.

Rapido Realismo Kali group will definitely like to see you progress. Goodluck.

[dxprofit]

Just awesome Sir!

Love the directness of every move.

Thank you for sharing.

[LibreFighting]

We usually practice a double backhanded eye flick, or transition into another defense before countering.

[sigmacombatsystems]

I love the cover at 35 secs, I've never thought about doing that in that situation. Considering how most street brawlers attack that'd be perfect. Another great vid.

[LibreFighting]

We call that a "Foreman Cover". It is based on the defense George Foreman used. It is a good solid defense, the main draw back is that it is difficult to counter from.

[sigmacombatsystems]

It would seem that firing the top hand in an eye rake would work and cover the other hand moving in with a back fist or hammer fist, it'd be easy to use something along those lines to initiate a straight blast. It would be possible to shoot straight into a cross collar choke too, but that'd be iffy at best in my opinion.

[jonnynogi]

@LibreFighting - Also looks like "Lan Sao" from Wing Chun.... I guess in the end, a punch is just a punch and a kick is just a kick.

[Joshua1234gf]

@LibreFighting jesbus christ damn ur good

[SuperflyBrownEye]

Scott, you are a brutal legend.

[methodtraining]

Holy crap! That was feaking awesome. Really love the elusive running attacks and replacement steppingin, you don't see that to often. Great Job guys!

[ellul613]

Love the intensity of your stuff guys and very functional to, well done.

[ibup2erly]

5/5!!
