Mixed Martial Arts & Cage Fighting Basics : How to Takedown in Mixed Martial Arts

[myspace783]

nice

[jovenr1232]

cool

[Sappier93]

i dont like the part where he said step back with the leading leg, if you drive your knee forward instead it is a much more powerfull takedown

[Sappier93]

@Sappier93 and less chance of your opponent sprawling on you

[MegaKoreanboi]

If your on defense for the takedown, and you have time to think, you can just guillotine choke, and then your in control on the ground.

[ChipmunksOnAcid]

i find it much better coming down onto the knee of the lead leg, you can then get a lot more force when your shoulder hits him and you change level again when you step up. You can also wrap your back leg round his front leg and trip him alongside all of that.

[Youssefk6]

it looks easy when the other one is not moving

[culturaleyes]

wow, an expert village video thats actually pretty good

[jajbee]

i try this on my girlfriend

[SolisticeCrye]

There are so many thats what she said jokes i couldve said during this video lol

[FrNzRcAbZ]

i like his shorts

[santistadecorazon24]

Nice video,

[reginfuentes]

try that on aldo and you'll eat his knee!!!! haha

[D3m0nReborn]

I am watching 11 seconds and he is already doing something wrong, NEVER LOWER YOUR LEVEL LIKE THAT... pause at :11 seconds and look how easy it would be for kimbo right there to knee him in the jaw if you want to get away from his punches either lean back or back peddle

[xverxverxverga]

@D3m0nReborn Oh!, really? because I took a seminar with Cain Velazquez in Mexico City, and he said exactly the same about lowering our level. But, you say it's wrong. What's the right way master?

[markhippyshire]

@D3m0nReborn you're clearly a TKD practicer aren't you? isn't that korean for kick and run away?

[aJaday420]

@markhippyshire Wow... don't bash TKD just because one person does it and doesn't know what they're doing in the cage. I fight TKD and boxing as far as standup, and its a great background for mma. I will agree, don't believe d3m0nreborn is a fighter, and he deff. doesn't know what he is talking about... but easy on the TKD comments

[markhippyshire]

@aJaday420 Well here's my stand. I took TKD for years and enjoyed it very much, however it is not very effective simply because it's outdated. Our generation is infinitely more intelligent than those 3 and 4 gens back, with intelligence comes brain processing, speed, and coordination. Don't believe me? Watch Bruce Lee films and Jet Li films, or a parkour video. Don't believe me still and consider that every couple decades IQ tests are re averaged so your average person scores 100.

[mrkiky]

@markhippyshire I seriously doubt what you said about generations getting smarter so fast. Movie choreography has evolved, that's all. Just like other aspects of movies. Parkour also evolved in the last few years because of the internet and promoters.Doesn't mean our generation is smarter, it means that we took something that we already had and took it farther. It's how we evolve as a race. Yes we probably grow in brainpower too, but the difference between today and 4 gens earlier is negligible.

[markhippyshire]

@mrkiky Well I'm not going to try and show you, because it wouldn't take long. Maybe you could learn a little bit about how intelligent you and your generation really are by researching on the topic yourself. Otherwise, it's fine if you don't believe me.

[aJaday420]

@markhippyshire

in my opinion, you are right and wrong, if you step into the cage against an MMA fighter who is armed with multiple fighting styles, and you are only comfortable fighting tkd.... chances are, you will lose... but if you adapt kicks like a roundhouse kick, front/push kick, or spinning back kicks from tkd into your mma arsenal, they can be very effective... but your opinion has a lot of truth to it, and i respect your take on the sport...

[markhippyshire]

@aJaday420 You have gained loads of my respect.

[markhippyshire]

@aJaday420 I like TKD a little still, but the days of block THEN punch are over. You may say that some Masters teach to block and strike at the same time, but it's because those are the new adapting teachers. As a martial art however it isn't made as easily to adapt to the simultaneous need as much as say Muay Thai. It is adapting, but from my experience in multiple arts and many competitions, not fast enough.

[SURFACEACE]

aww wtf were will smith ....

[jasondanielbauer]

nice pointing out the hip placement caz thats the biggest problem with most people

[HHectorD]

what if you get hit on the balls? while punching him and he trys to hitu?

[pokerockman]

@HHectorD 'Mixed Martial Arts & Cage Fighting'

not street fighting lol...

it'll be alot different.

[MsLmays]

they are good for me



[TLESSOMASTER]

good vids

he reminds me to Frodo from Lord of the rings

just as an MMA fighter

[quickslash0]

this is wrong lol.

[MrTheCSfan]

MORONS. This is not gonna make you a good fighter.

[tankerz11]

@MrTheCSfan who said it'd make you a better fighter? the title clearly says it all

[TIVOnetwork]

yes i am gonna kick my friends ass

[JordanDinstrumentals]

@TIVOnetwork lol

[Sup654]

For the people that are saying elbow to the back of the head or neck... this is for Mixed Martial Arts not street fights this is for MMA fights that have some very strict rules. If you want to use in a real fight that tech. is still good but all you would have to really do is add to it to protect yourself better an not get hit in the back of the head.

[bozunovic]

TEXT?

[jeetkunedo117]

I still dont see how an elbow to the back of the neck wouldnt stop that instantly... good vid though

[noesomhelst]

@jeetkunedo117 if you get 2 jabs straight to the face then get taken down right after, you dont have the time to respond to the takedown...

[jeetkunedo117]

@noesomhelst yeah well for me, after training in the different styles and gyms i have, im expecting the set up like that. so i wouldnt make the mistake of putting my hands down. but i do agree with you thats why that tactic works so well for people who dont expect it. But from my experiences there is always a way out, a counter, or a defense for something. it all depends on situation. But yeah dont get me wrong im not bashing on this move or saying it wont work .

[noesomhelst]

@jeetkunedo117 yeah, sure.. i agree with you to.. everything i possible.. a trained fighter could see it comming and get a defense up, but a normal guy would most likely get taken down. do the same trick several times, and you are bound to fail!

[jeetkunedo117]

@noesomhelst exactly!

[lilschool100]

oohhh haahahahha when he do thats to me it is eazy for me to do thats some one like thats ....... you can put elbow in his back ahahahahah am AZN BOY HAAHAHHAAHAH?????????????//

[emopain6012]

nice video thanks

[veothrax]

i needed this..

im more of a standup fighter and only some basic ground fightins

[Ughmask]

It looks like all the cool guys who claim to be mega-fighters could use a lesson in English ...

[totisrolls]

what happens if he get you in a guillotine ?

[iTeachYourMacs]

Ill use this against my Enemies! THEY ARE SO GOING DOWN!

[Kaj97051]

@Hitler1634 how did i wen i wo just pointin out the obvious

[RebelWrestler45]

Oh dear god, this guy needs to go back to high school wrestling; that was the worst blast double I've ever seen; and when you cut the corner, going to the side opposite of your own head is just asking to get sprawled on

[chentaichiacademy]

That does not work against trad chinese arts like Chen Taiji or Isingi.

However your vids are very professionally presented and the content very worth watching.

Keep it up

[blokskebeton]

that's simply a rugby tackle

[dannyboytoon]

@blokskebeton Umm nope it isn't.

[hazard2000]

@blokskebeton its called a double leg takedown and was used in wrestling long before rugby was ever even invented ignorant fuck

[Kaj97051]

@Hitler1634 they call it cage fighting coz its more or less in a cage dumb ass fag

[Hitler1634]

@Kaj97051 wow, u made ur self look stupid in ur comment, nothing bad I can say about u yank that will top that

[Hitler1634]

y do ppl call it 'cage fighting', its fuckin mixed martial arts, I hate when ppl say cage fighting, wtt about pride fc is it 'cage fighting' fuckin idiots

[hazard2000]

@Hitler1634 Is pride even still running? No its not you dumbfuck. cage fighting is a perfectly proper term, I dont even remeber the last time ive seen MMA on TV in a ring instead of a cage

[Hitler1634]

@hazard2000 what the fuck do u know mug, and doesn't matter if pride is still 'running' or not, the sport is called mixed martial arts u fuckin pussy

[Hitler1634]

@hazard2000 btw cunt, Dream (mixed martial arts) organization is still 'running' so yeah I am wright and ur an idiot

[hazard2000]

@Hitler1634 Dream is the only organization still useing a ring, your comment was so uneducated I thought I wouldnt even need to mention it, didnt think you would even know what dream is, and btw, am i the idiot or is the kid who cant even spell right correctly?? And when is the last time you saw dream on TV in North America?

[Hitler1634]

@hazard2000 oi lil boy, u r so stupid I cant believe it, I know y cus ur a YANK thats explains so much, its obvious that u r a fuckin illiterate and u dont know shit about MMA or martial arts or anything, and ur not worth it u fuckin yank, nation of fat and stupid

[hazard2000]

@Hitler1634 your the stupid one, im no yank, I was born in england and trained Judo and taekwondo from 9-13 years of age, than I moved to canada so my dad could help build the Canada Arm that is used in space, about a month after I moved to montreal I started kickboxing and japanese ju-jitsu, I trained both for two years and im currently on my 4th year of kickboxing, im almost 18, probably older than you dumbass. and since less than 1% of MMA fans dont do martial arts, I highly doubt you do.

[Hitler1634]

@hazard2000 wow, what a load of shit, do u think I or anybody will give a shit even if u did all these stuff or still doing or about the fuckin essay u wrote , pussy I did karate when I was 7 and did it for 7 years, what the fuck do u know about martial arts, u only know how 2 chat shit and make shit up over the internet and thats it, I told u man u aint worth shit and dont eva chat 2 me cunt

[hazard2000]

@Hitler1634 Karate, that explains everything, ill bet your pissed you wasted 7 years on light contact sparring and katas, bitch, id fuck you up. I was 3-1 in amatuer kickboxing, think ur tough shit? Rofl.

[Hitler1634]

@hazard2000 see, now thats just playing rude, its easy 2 talk shit behind ur keyboard cunt, I bet u would not say shit 2 my face whore, I dont give a shit what u do or what u hv done, Il kick the shit out of u mug, ur a lil bitch we both know that

[RebelWrestler45]

@hazard2000 There are plenty of amateur and professional MMA organizations that still use a ring.

[ducttapemasterful]

0:28 DUDE HE STILL CAN SPRAWL

[hazard2000]

@ducttapemasterful do you know how to do a proper sprawl? Obviously not, try take a BJJ class before you say shit like that to people who have been training since before you were even born

[MrDookieProductions]

Jason Bourne FTW!!

[27Hopkins]

but he could easily get him in a headlock and make him tap

[denzeldube]

that's an amazing vid

[FaiintX]

MMA Techniques Is Not Allowed For Fun.

Don't use it for any bullshit

Use it for training but not on the streets for fun

[theo618]

:0 the vid never said dont try this at home

:) every one at school is pissed!!

[blizzardlizard212121]

unlike some crappy videos he shows up how to get them down man i am going to do that tomorrow at school

[gerardscarface]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WRONG!!!

[MCYungFlip]

its funny how people keep critisizing real professional fighters when they themselves never even been in the cage or boxing ring

[iarcheese]

@MCYungFlip I totally agree homie,and when i say fuck street fighters i mean fuck the ones that think that "all that kung-fu ufc shit dont work".FUCK STREET FIGHTERS!

[NexTimeISeeYou]

nice vid..very helpful

[krunkkidnorm]

you should really take a much more aggressive step with your rear leg to push the take down and close distance.

[SmashBrosBrawl]

thx,

i didnt know you were suppose to ram your shoulder into his hip,

i just kinda shot at his legs lol.....

[farrux88]

effective takedown

[skoolsuxz365]

his head position isn't good, easy guillotine.

[deviousturk]

@skoolsuxz365 How can you get caught in a guillotine when you land straight into sidecontrol? This movement would be done quick anyway so guillotine choke would not be possible!

[leshark]

finally a gd expert village vid

[boreddude11]

thanks man i could use this against my friends

[JaviSoFreshh]

@boreddude11 lol

[haffoc]

I really hate these videos with their advertisements

[BloodXSweatXGuitars]

only the real gay people say that....

[JerryBoxer]

There is a move from side control called kaisi katami im not sure if its spell correctly but, u can engage multiple submissions from that position, paintbrush, crucifix, and even a traingle choke from the top, its one of the most dominant positions in grappling. u can pound his body out till he taps or go for a kimura.

[TheGodfather101]

you forgot neck crank (but it is illegal in mma)

[freethrow7792]

Not everywhere!

[BacheKhala]

great vidz. pls show more techniques.thx

[nonofyourbusiness999]

Nice video, I'm practicing right now Tae Kwon Do but I'm trying to learn takedowns too since I could really use them on a fight.

So I could say I'm building up an arsenal of techniques for the firsth unlucky bastard that comes to fuck my life hehe.

Thanks for the video =)

[Pankration321]

you training for street fights?

[nonofyourbusiness999]

Not that I train for it,just that I wanna be prepared for one just in case.But yea you could say that.

[thundernuts0]

0:52 couldnt the guy thats down lock his head so he cant spring up? iv seen that happen alot before

[paardelul300]

this is a good vid except.

you can a a headlock or guillotine choke.

and that could be the move that would let you loose the match.

[JerryBoxer]

thank u :) i definately noticed that as well when going for a take down u should never have ur head under his arm. instead its best to dig ur head in his ribs so u dont get caught.

[RallyMotoXfan]

its called a shotgun

XD

[kingdanny1]

its better to drop on your knee, because he can get you in a headlock. look at 0:30

[ziyziy]

Yeah, and it's easier to drop heavier opponents

[baxterbites]

You're right and that should be drilled very often.

[wasupmybro]

haha at :50 but this is what i was looking for

[karoolta]

you should rap your arms before hitting with the shoulder

[Regan9415]

shooting is tackling with a distraction

[Cutestufftay]

i love this takedown.

[caverappleyard]

yeah u can slam from here, or use about 65 different throws. This is BASIC.

[SoundNinja2000]

Well im just getting into his but from that positoin when you moved your leg from between his legs, would that be a great opprutunity for a slam also??

[2possi]

thats a weak double leg dude

[R0naldo17]

Thanks a lot for these vids they're great help!

[SeanRector]

Wow amazeing...this is what i was wanting too learn

[bigdaddyB91]

if you can wrestle you can shoot and sprawl but its just a tad bit different

[tridausenanseven]

good vid
