Kombatan Arnis - Grand Master Ernesto G Presas Jnr

[confusedcarlos]

one of the best demonstrations of great eskrima skills i've ever seen

[inviktus1018]

didn't know about the mano mano.. it is awesome..

[JohnTraviss]

It's like an awesome badasss version of patty cakes.

[jossg123]

A little rought, but I suppose the kid wanted it like that. Phillipino martial arts videos are always rought and crude, but in real life, when you have to fight, you can't expect softness or mercy from your opponent...

[uttoushii]

after seeing his grappling, i would rather he have a stick if i had to fight him >_>

[coolVideos231196]

What sticks are they

[SelmaniSecurity]

very good respect 

[flipforyou1]

this martial art isnt a sport.its to kill an opponent using various techniques.to make sure ur opponent cant fight back .That means no chances .if you give them a chance that will cause your life.thats why this martial art was created in the first place.to make sure youll be the last one standing

[subongkosh]

Now i know why Manny Pacquioc so freaking fast lol

[ZHzone]

impressive



[devildogkilo]

Awesome job Grand Master Presas

[Drauski]

lmao why r u guys feeling bad for the kid? thats what makes a good training partner, some one who gets right back up on their feet ready for the next technique. he knows what he was getting himself into, and hes probably a black belt in this art (assuming there are different belt ranks). some cool stuff btw

[1banryukyu]

@ishoawarrior Sir

Great video! Osu

[41975marcelo]

i think the kid could suit this fat guy easy,i agree with pinoy joy959,and,also advice to the kid look for legal advice,he can become rich dude...

[PinoyJoy959]

Anyone else feel bad for this kid?

[76jonathan]

Very impressive... The world of Martial Arts is so vast, and a low percentage of forms have solid practical applications. Being a student of San Soo Kung Fu, I am proud to say it takes a lot to impress me (not a boast). Well done, and greetings from Oregon, USA.

[Pock0]

Master or not there is a lot of useless movement there...ofc I guess thats just for the show~

[agodinruins]

@Pock0 I'm assuming you mean the stick twirling. that's not wasted movement; if he were 2 inches closer, all of those would be strikes to the face. if anything, he is showing a tremendous amount of control.

[pacomed21t]

Impresionante

[RJTrezise1983]

I love how teacher's assistants are always smaller than the teacher. Steven seagal is notorious for using smaller guys in his demonstrations and beating the crap out of them.

[lucusarts1]

I love the video. Thank you for sharing it.

[zahaladino]

Greetings! this arnis is amazing. i am very, very impressed, since i saw it in a fight in Mexico in a palenque. I did not know that this martial art has a selfdefense aplication, partialyly because a i saw my first arnis fight in drug lord' palenque and the fight ended very bloody.......

Anyway, greetings to all Filipinas

[1seeker4truth]

wonderfull skill, but....I feel so bad for your partner in vid

[rodneyNIKON]

I feel sorry for the guy!!

[Venomousjester]

Dude whimpin and naggin but being the teacher's pet in martial arts has it's HUGE advantages, kuddos, awsome video

[MrByaeger]

took me a bit to get that Mr. Presas was keeping time on his own sticks in between patterns, and i love how he can both talk AND look at the camera and still maintain the drill! I have to count out loud and focus just to keep up on a simple 8 count...very very cool! i have a terrible left hand swing, which means all my students have terrible left hand knuckles.

[Gophio]

Buena Mr Presas!

[blueinbarca]

Where is Grand Master Ernesto Presas Jnr based,in Luzon or Visayas?I may be going back to The Philippines soon and would love to do some training with his school,Pinoys are very nice,friendly and happy people.

As for the student,he's not getting hurt too much,he knows how to breakfall and the Grand Master knows exactly how much pressure to use in the techniques,that's why he is a Grand Master!

[blueinbarca]

Very interesting,around 4:30 he uses 3 Aikido techniques,2 locks followed by a throw-Nikkyo,Sankyo and Kote Gaeshi but I suppose most Martial Arts have crossover techniques!

I must say he looks very young to be a Grand Master though,does anybody know how old he is?

[kraks11]

Is he trying to teach us! I can't keep up!?!?

[NowCryHavoc]

The Philipino martial arts in general I don't think get the due or exposure most others do. Very combat effective techniques.

[FLiPMoDeAriaO5]

Beatin the shit outta dude

[blainealexander]

Ever been hit on the toe with one of those? Worst pain in the world.

[kj7gsdon]

I love this guy. You can tell he really enjoys his art. Thanks for the clip, Mr. Presas.

[alibalineukjemoeder]

imagine if he were your dad and he always want to fight, for ever pain

[remogadge]

Imagine being their nieghbours, all that knocking sticks noise all the time. Cant even tell them to shut up.

[BOWDOWNLS3]

Awesome!!

[YipManneke]

jesus this looks amazing, kicks locks all great

[PsyphaX09]

man..it sucks to be the sparring partner of the grand master...

[Awesomestuff247]

:( im scared

[Blackout5154]

I think its funny when he tries to tap out

[Ironfist643]

id love to see him play the drums XD

[qwertyuiop298]

Sherlock Holmes must have picked stuff up from the unarmed bits

[masenka76]

the technique at 4:15 is just awesome!!

[TheWhenglenn]

wow! IDOL KO ANG MASTER WISH I COULD LEARN :)

[tigerkungfu69]

very good for a big man . never judge the book by hes cover ...

[DawgFL]

I swear his arm was going to snap.

[barkriverbravo1]

Except for the silly high kicks , everything else is well done and shows some really good skills

[sanjuroyamashita]

Es un exelente arte marcial siempre me a gustado y ademas es muy comun encontrarse un baston para defenderse saludos desde Ecuador Latinoamerica..

[DonCarlo4Broadway]

I love the Ju-Jitsu part of this!

[MrAlpino3]

AWESOME!!!

[kidnickels17]

I'd like to learn from someone like that. Was very impressive. And man that kid sure could take a beating.

[1DavidTennant]

I'd hate to piss him off...

[pitbull247luv]

He moves very good for a big guy,,, very nice techq...

[docsunga]

cont..

Eskrima/Arnis/Kali is a killing art or to the very least, cause a permanent injury so the other side won't be able to use this art as a retaliation (ie. cut the arrms off, slash tendons, gauge the eyes with the intent to permanently blind etc..)

there are vulgar/dirty/foul-play techniques (to today's standard) side of this art, and i'm just glad i haven't encountered any Guro teaching it to their students here in youtube.

[docsunga]

Some ppl need to understand that this art is not intended for sport, but rather, in a real-life-to-death circumstances. this is actually a lil tame compared to the training in the old days where they actually use real swords/knives and lost of limbs, permanent injuries are daily occurrences during training. It is so brutally effective that this art almost died post WWII cuz the old masters decided not to pass his knowledge to the next generation to avoid any more bloodshed.

cont..

[LysyDingo]

fantastic, really martial ART

[AtheistMonster]

4:29

This is becoming very hard to watch xD

*cringe*

[psalvacion]

I must learn!!!!!

[neils68]

imagine if this guy had a couple machetes in his hands!!!!!

[johnnyfisalive]

cool real training to feel the pain and to adapt to it to alert him more

[4uva4ok1]

I have no words but cool!

[TheEdge883]

I really wish there was an arnis or kali school around here :(

[steve2024t3]

I took Krav Maga for two years, and I would love to add this to my martial arts toolbox. Both arts deal in no nonsense action.

[lookahere]

Wow! This is the best stick work I've ever seen!

[1longholiday]

Filipinos are bad ass. Where else in the world do they carry head-axes and settle arguments with poison-tipped daggers? Haha.

[Raizgriz]

very nice sir i enjoyed watching your skills. you have revealed very much sir. maybe if i travel to the Philippines to visit family i'll stop by your camp :D

[ChaosBurnsWithin]

Damn that kid is getting the shit kicked out of him! He's screamin and stuff and Grand Master doesn't even care! He should be more gentle with his students...

[Karmitsu072]

@ChaosBurnsWithin at the same time he wants to prepare them for the real world.. he does that cuz he cares and wants them to be prepared. not because he wants to hurt them

[TheNakedWombat]

Cool.

[sin0productions]

i'll go WOW!! amazing!!!!

[ghasl1]

Reminds of Big Stan, 'take the stick, take the stick' each time disarms opponent, wacks the shit out of the prison inmate

[anzenxxii]

damn that fat guy can moves more fluently than i gave him credit for. his high kicks are pretty superb.

[avatarnarutochuck]

4:24 figure four leglock... WOOOHHH!!!!

[lexmarkbites]

ang yabang!

[latragokali]

the fancy kind

[jumarbrix]

just had my first lesson in arnis today, and it was amazing!!!!someday i can move like that he he

[dainobot72]

I love it!!!!Arnis baby!!!!

[zigsauer]

practice makes a master

[sephitrottel]

impressive O.O

[bobw72]

this style keeps impressing me more every time i see it as I've been researching it recently and i am really considering taking it up. Just one thing to all the practitioners out there; I need someone to clarify something... On most of the martial arts forums I have been on the consensus of the modern arnis practitioners seemed to be that this style has a weaker defense towards kicks than most just because kicking isn't really emphasized in the style; this observation was noted from an ex-taekw

[umartdagnir]

@bobw72 You're correct. All FMAs originate from knife fighting and teach not to use kicks apart from low kicks and kicks with side of your foot from close distance (don't know how they are called properly), since high kicks expose your thigh arteries and thus are too dangerous in a knife fight. So normally you don't learn much defence from them, either. But you can simply ask your instructor to give some emphasis to anti-kick defence, and he might to it.

[umartdagnir]

@bobw72 Another (and better) option is to learn Arnis/other FMAs together with one or more other martial arts, picking the best bits (anti-kick defence in this case) from all of them and building your own style (JKD principle). My instructor was teaching grappling, kali-escrima and Thai boxing - and this was a perfect combination.

Of course, if you have a good and experienced instructor, you can "build your style" only on FMAs - they are very versatile.

[marumito]

@bobw72 === I suggest you watch the documentary entitled "ESKRIMADORS" it shows some of the early history of KALI, ARNIS OR ESKRIMA which are the different titles put of Filipino Martial Arts.

[vjhaslike12names]

I have a condition that makes my hands sweat. I really want to start but im worried that it would make it hard to grapple or it would be embarrasing. Would wearing MA gloves help?

[Pinkpapi]

Iv'e always wondered what a REAL fight between two grand masters will look like. Then again, a grand master in any martial art knows to ONLY use it as a last resort for self-defense, so that may never happen:s

[hirokazuquzawa]

I like Filipino Martial Arts even i'm from Japan

[hirokazuquzawa]

Aishteru Sensei Ernesto-kun Arigato!! for postin the video

[SuperMiyanda]

Master,good skills...no i meant awesome!

[tnthorses]

Sure tuffining up that youngster !

[SKY101ful]

Did you see that deadly kick! That would destroy any mma fighter. 

[Wesley95501]

Never miss the art arnis or else.

[RandomEurasian]

Dude, Tap out!! Tap out!!

[Achilles1987]

it reminds me of GM Latosa...

[eversadx]

from 4:29 to 4:46 - so it is possible to break opponents' bones like few times each...f*ck.

[91markandersen]

this is awesome. poor kid cops a beating.

[808raised]

That's the most tolerant student I've ever seen.

[LINKchris87]

filipino martial arts are probably the most deadly... kali and eskrima are awesomely effective

but hell this guy reaches a new level: he kills you in a second, but he does a master score in style

[ngayonnaba]

NOW that's a true master!!!

[nenabunena]

@icari80 i was watching amis tribe from taiwan doing tinikling, they also had the 2 sticks in their martial dance. accdg to austronesian theories, filipinos came from taiwan. also accdg to blust who's an austronesian linguist not associated with any martial art, the kali prefix in filipino languages relate to a spiritual concept. so who know's really where the term came from

[marumito]

@nenabunena ---- I suggest you watch the documentary entitled "ESKRIMADORS" it shows some of the early history of KALI, ARNIS OR ESKRIMA which are the different titles put on Filipino Martial Arts.

[henrythinks]

Impressive



[MrSkwidlipps]

This guy is one serious son of a biatch. This is probably the most impressive display of martial arts that I've ever seen. I'm a huge fan of MMA but incorporating the kali stick takes it to another level. The big question I have is how old is to old to begin learning this stuff. I'm 50 and work out regurarly but have never done any martial arts.

[l4ddude100]

@MrSkwidlipps dude you don't have to be old or young to learn arnis age doesn't matter you just gotta have the determination to do the sport

[aikidoway71]

I love this stuff! Awesome I would really like to learn this art. arnis,vee arnis,kali silat . GREAT stuff for sure.

[baldycheese]

drills................

[Sid60z]

hes having fun lol!

[toro1]

show

[chr1st1an20061]

very impressive

[blackhammer76]

me might be big ,but he def has skills

[LoveCombatArts]

Outstanding. I've been training in Kali, Thai Boxing and Silat about 25 years. This is excellent and there is no doubt he knows his stuff - I suspect this is him more as teacher than practitioner. By his look I reckon he could let rip another 50%+ more than he is showing. Good to see some real quality on YouTube....

[badjaeaux]

@LoveCombatArts He's a GM that means he's a descendant of a Fighting family

[youssef0eddoumali]

i really feel sorry for the kid

[gagatep450]

he reminds me of roy nelson.

[phillipkempo]

Excellent techniques

[Neil7007]

and so the saying goes...never judge a book by its cover!!!..who says big guys cant move

[ces69jen]

That was great. Big fella has wicked mobility. It's like he was born to do it. Excellent demonstration. The defense without the sticks holds a lot of traditional Japanese Jijitsu menouvers.

[emberslave]

@ces69jen But it's not Japanese at all. O_o

[APfershizzle]

i want to go there and learn those techniques, that dude is a freakin genius!

[ccpitbull]

Highest RESPECT!!!!. All the martial arts are right here. Bruce saw it first!!

[kartorus]

3:55  awesome

[RyeBai]

Ah you can tell a bisayan.

[khan64]

mana po sir... excellent video.... i love arnis kali escrima, ive been doing it for 4 years but your stick work is amazing? would maybe love to train with you in the future as i would travel to the philiphines to train with some masters including your self? im more into panatukan and small blade!!!

awesome keep up the good videos thats what keeps us guys going!!!

salut and regards

Andre

[Hakuru15]

wow this looks awesome great vid :)

[DonHanz17]

great vid but where's the dojo? they seem to be in the middle of the road.

[l4ddude100]

@DonHanz17 dojo? this isn't japan it is Philipines

[Asgardia]

@DonHanz17 there isnt any dojo..hir in the phillippines we practice in roads or any where..98% of people hir in the phillipines knows how to use arnis..

[justpazzingby13]

@Asgardia not so true.. everyone knows.. but not a lot knows how..

[justpazzingby13]

@DonHanz17 that's pretty much about it dude.

[bisaiia]

This Visayan dude is a beast!!! hes from negros occidental, hes a grand master

[IvonoftheGWF]

Dude, Nightwing can eat his heart out, this dude is a beast.

Eskrima just has such a style to it, it's stylish fighting, yet it's so efficent in so many ways. It kicks the living hell out of the weak Kempo I'm practicing right now. And no one argues in the comments of this like they do in the Karate/Kempo/TKD/Jujitsu video comments, everyone just agrees this shit is beastly. You've gotta love that.

[goruck]

I really want to know what kind of supreme retards hit dislike????

[ZorgDK]

impressive moves 

[raserumeta]

I never thought our cultural martial art is so so amazing!! Ong Bak was great but after watching this, I realize that we also have a very great martial arts! so proud to be pinoy :DDD

[rio197]

lol the poor kid is a punching bag. great video though.

[llucaslives]

That poor kid...

[nytcrwlr09]

Fast moves for a big guy! Epic!

[cjfurious9]

KOMBATAN arnis is one of the best!!!!

[fondofU89]

AWESOME!!!!

[phantomdimtrix]

i am just amazed with his partner! But for Grandmaster - Hands Down!

[Sarugaki]

Man watching this guy, I feel like this is exactly how Batman fights lol

[ichitanakajapan]

We love you Ernesto Presas

from Japan

[legokratos]

i don't remember a high backhand when they taught us the sinawali

[amsterdope]

RESPECT - for the skinny bald kid who is moving and sliding and getting his ass kicked like crazy on a gravel road with NO SHOES!

[antonkhuu]

oh man these dudes kick ass .. dont ever want to meet you guys on a bad day really .

[cookieinthewoods]

Wow, unbelievable - superb stuff

[kafity272]

[Vietnameyes]

[jumarbrix]

[emp29]

Aray!

[tferrer007]

That was awesome! Galing pare!

[Tomcreature]

[artofcutproductions]

Amazing!!  Awesome!

[DavidBylsma]

[hp7557]

Woww...

This was really amazing n very informative on 'self defense' in real time of crisis situation... Pl keep us informed...

Thanks

[respiritu1787]

how amazing would this guy be as your trainer? Just amazing...painful but amazing!

[imil101]

How did ernesto die?

[ayoyotle]

Thank you for the instructions, a little fast but ok. The poor smaller guy got the beating, I think there was a need for a mattress or tatami.

[mowgdog]

still the best demo i have seen , amazing -total respect

[mrkayumangi]

Thank you master

[nejean123]

Hahahah 4:35

[mannylloyd]

amazing............

[24688642ism]

How long does it take to learn Kombatan Arnis?

[shadowfury01]

awesome ! damm where did he put this finger? @3:41

[enrique20reyes]

@shadowfury01 He thrusts his finger on his cervical trachea. A point located under the throat. Where some people have a hole due to respiratory problems.

[ben9ben10]

that boy......poor partner (>_<)"

[yarinageshonen]

filipino pride there. ARNIS!

[XenMineCraftVids]

Must be a promising student to keep up.

[uyramangueira]

Fantastic!!!!



[jv02val]

Real Grand Master! :)

[ShaNagmaImmuru]

oh break your students hand to show off how an awesome a fighter you are,no big deal.shows a lot about this master

[Ralic100]

impressive

[RokudoMukuro6]
