  • Amazing, how muscular he is!

  • Not for All

  • He was super sayian mode at 1:49

  • Where can I go for a class

  • Shaolin are amazing fighters. I wish they'd add long range weapons to their arsenal.

  • ive competed in boxing and bjj for years and just went to my first san shou class,,,it made a believer out of me for sure,,those guys are tough as shit. If ANYONE doubts it or doubts the shaolin monks,,jus go try a free class.

  • @WrestlingGorilla Where did you find a gym that operates under genuine Shaolin style?

  • wtf scary dude

  • Hi, I just recently bought a DVD from the website- Bootcamp Vol.1. Approximately how long does delivery take?

    Thanks for the vids!

  • Does any1 else see the steam coming off him????

  • @WillFiordalisi lol. I've had that happen a million times. You'll see that at football games as well, when they take off their helmets. Same thing. Nothing special. Actually, everything in this clip is pretty damned normal-looking to me, and I'm not quite sure why I'd send out for a vid of this stuff, but then again, I've been training for over ten years. I'd actually make some adjustments to his jab and cross but I prefer more boxer-style stuff when I spar.

  • Nice! He seems to combine Sanshou or Sanda to his Shaolin fighting method. I'd say he's very fit enter any fighting tournament.

  • if u have any doubts about kung fu and its effectivness just look at lyoto mchida he made a beleiver out of me

  • @y2taner thats karate man but still u have a point traditional martial arts still work

  • go to ultimate and good fighit.....

  • this guy is fast and powerful, another example of what hard training and dedication can do. well done

  • Sorry, I think this is not shaolin fight. This is the art of Kick boxing in thailand.

  • @draghu6 this aint a skinny little thai, this isnt kick boxing if anything its sanda look at the side kicks.

  • its not kung fu its a mma fighter

  • Can someone tell me why are Shaolin monks doesn't participate in MMA fights?

  • @Martin1735 Uh, cause its a waste of time. Well to them anyway. They are monks, not sport fighters.

  • @Martin1735 Nobody would have a chance against these guys ;)

  • @Martin1735 ....well cos shaolin are buddhists. Getting paid to beat someone as entertainment breaks their commandment of using martial arts only to protect. They would have to quit shaolin to become a mma fighter

  • @Martin1735

    Dignity

  • @Martin1735 "monk" says it all

  • Comment removed

  • whot name of this music???

  • Hey guys i did 1year muay thai and 1 year taekwondo. Now i am going to do SanShou and Shaolin Kungfu. Is that a good combination? I am going to have 5 times a week training.

  • @069stylez069 there are no styles ;)

  • @069stylez069

    it might be good to for having a trained body but when you start real shaolin kung fu you might be a little disappointed at first sight. there wont be much fighting at the beginning. and most of the attacks are meant to be lethal. shaolin kung fu and kung fu generally does not mix well with other martial arts and is def. not made for competitions.

    besides that i wouldn´t do diffrent martial arts at the same time if you didn´t become a master at one first.

  • @schulleee

    Well, firstly thanks for the comment. The Masters are chinese and they´re 28-25 years old. I won´t be a "master", i am the "fighter". I just want to improve my kicks and the agility like in taekwondo. And with Sanda i practise more fight experience.

  • A 300 pound bodybuilder being able to move like that would be damn cool xD

  • he dances around to much

  • @jackasshomey rofl i think he knows a shitload more about shaolin than you will ever.

  • -.- this isnt shaolin kungfu

    shaolin kungfu isnt about offense but defense and using your opponents attacks against himself

    anyone can punch or kick but the shaolin can defeat an opponent without laying a single punch

  • @jackasshomey you are an idiot, this is shaolin "warrior", and i have this dvd and at the end he says, 'you need to have your own style', and this guy is legit, dont hate cause you cant do

  • @DawgFL o0 dude.....do you SEE that coming off his body at 1:49. Look around his head closely

  • @Martialart07 yea lol i realized it, its just his sweat evaporating

  • This monk is called shi yan lei, and he teaches in london, hes a direct martial monk from the shaolin temple and his a beast. i have been trained by him, and i can assure you he is a machine. his abilities are not known in mainstream mma or other fields. thats what shaolin kung fu is, working hard and gaining amazing abilities that will help you in combat that will make you one of the best but it takes a lot of torture and discipline to gain such qualities. but its worth it.

  • @kftkft Where in London does he teach do you know??? I live in London and would love to know :)

  • @antjmi

    well himself, im not sure if his gone to america or maybe i think his back in london im not entirely sure. but his monk brother shifu shi yanzi is the main master there, he is also a beast of a monk, his an amazing person and an incredible martial artist. go to google and type in shaolin temple uk, and you will see their site, they are based in tufnell park, north london. i myself will go in a few months, i've had a shoulder injury for the past 2 years, but im preparing to go back soon

  • @kftkft Wicked thanks for this..just checked it out looks exellent, I am most definitley going to check this out!! May see you in a few months :)

  • @antjmi

    yes hopefully, good luck, i hope you will enjoy the training there, its really hard but really awesome.

  • he looks like a chinese mike tyson

  • @1of2dogs i think a shaolin warrior can break 5 tyson at the same time

  • @1of2dogs he would fuck up mike tyson :)

  • I'am in love.

  • WELCOME TO YOUTUBE! where everyone who's posting a comment is an expert! or provoking an argument!

  • @johnnykash64 lol so true

  • @johnnykash64 testify, Brother Johnny, testify!

  • Anyone who has done any kind of martial arts can appreciate that this guy looks like he could easily take care of business!

  • white,black,asian, it dont matter, kung fu,,mma..? mma mean mixed martial arts, which means kung fu can be integrated into this "system".

    anyways, its about individual work after a while, techniques kinda fade into eachother, its not about what its called its about what it does because a powerful individual is using it.

  • most people think asian fighters are skinny weaklings, well i hope this guy proves it wrong

  • This is what i call a true martial monk ,these days are just acrobatic,weapon wielding bald stuntmen dats all lol. True monks like this guys are very few and almost extinct. Nothing but respect to this guy man,pure brutal techniques beats from this guy kicks ass from performing " monks" any day. GOGOG shifu yan lei

  • The best one is chinese shaolin :D

  • Oh yeah, and another thing. Once again, I respect the martial prowess of UFC fighters. But remember, MMA fighters fight using RULES. Take away the rules and controls, and you would find MMA fighters challenged, the same as traditional martial artists.

    MMA fighters are not Gods of War, with mastery of all martial skills. They possess what skills and conditioning will put food on their table, same as other martial artists.

  • @Clown7916

    There are simular rules in shaolin tournaments too, incase you forgot.

  • @ThisIsRickyGervais Ah yes. Thank you for correcting me.

  • LOL this is only partly Real, this is not even the Basics of Punching and Kicking, the SHalin have Done UN-Humanly possible feats which cannot be shown to the World because of the CHinese Government, there is no Freedom of Press over there, my Uncle has actually Traveled to both the North and The South Shaolin Temples, and saw amazing things that No one would believe.

  • @shundar19 Youre nuts, son. This has got nothing to do with the Chinese government or "Freedom of speech". Youre mad stupid.

    This has to do with them not showing you everything on Youtube. And who the hell shows all their stufff on a promo movie, kid.

    Next time, get some fking sense kid. Only morons like blind MMA bandwagonhoppers would believe that this is all that shaolin has to offer. Shaolin is sick.

  • @Elbottoo Freedom of Press... no Speech, two whole different things, I nvr said anything about showing off. And no will ever show off on a Movie, Because their are no Fully REAL Martial artists in Media, because Real Martial Artistist dont use what they Learn to Make Money. i nvr said anything about This is what Shaolin have to Offer, So idk wer u got that from... And yes Their Sick, but after uve seen what they are Capable of, u Wont find words to Describe THem.

  • Bolo?!! From Enter the Dragon?!  Dammmmmnnnn! Guy is stocky mo-fo

  • i love this kind of shaolin training no bullshit acrobatics ,weapons and stuff just train ur hands,feet and body into a human weapon. this is worth it xD . GOGOGO

  • Oh wow this guy looks really strong. I mean just look at his shadow boxing. Those strikes are solid. And he's mad buff and fast. This guy is dangerous.

  • wow...awesome but i bet u couldnt beat me...sike:)

  • lmao you are shitting me lol who said hes slow is crazy i've seen him train and hes fast as fuck plus he can kick fullshin shots to a tree IM NOT EVEN MESSING lol not a banana tree thats soft HE CAN DO IT ON SOLID WOOD

    hes only demoin in this video, he did had the clips up where he was shin kicking bamboo canaes and thick tree stumps but they took it off beacuse they have put it in the dvd for conditioning

  • @mali94zmaj, OK i understand now....thanx.

  • @LoongKin that is not chi you can't see chi, this is heat and water from exercise, every training i look the same.

  • Wow....just look at his chi at 1:48......he sure powerful.

  • 1:15-1:21 I think I could take him :P

  • oh man this guy looks so powerful.

  • Lol, i had to wear exactly wt he wore when i was there. i only had time to wash it once a week. boy it smelled. This guy looks like he can kick ass in ufc.

  • if you were a vegitarian like the monks you wouldnt smell as bad lol...i smell like chop meat after i work out lol.

  • agree. even vegetarian makes you faster n flexible

  • I train gong fu, but this looks more like muay thai or sanda than shaolin gong fu.But this man is a beast.

  • @mali94zmaj yeah, the shaolin we usually see is artistic and focuses more on form and "internal" energy. This form of shaolin is more combative and for street fights

  • cool vid keep it up

  • what a body. iron man.

  • I wonder why Usa does not have chinese fighter taking part in MMA, UFC or boxing event. This shaolin monk can easily killed pacquiao or dickweather without any sweat.

  • @jetyan dude boxing is totally different from kung fu... i have to respect it but boxing is a sport mma is a sport they are not meant to kill people

  • well yeh, shaolin kung fu was never meant for fighting against others for the sake of it, it wud be completely disregarding their morals as a monk, it was only made for self defence :)

    But it wud b interesting for sumone to learn shaolin and fight in the UFC, i'd cheer em on :D

  • nuh uh, it was made for health reasons

  • wooow this guy is amaaaazing

  • I would bet money that this guy could take brock lesnar

  • @cdizzzzle

    of course this guy could take lesnar. we can already assume that as a shaolin monk, he's trained longer, harder, and has endured more inflicted pain than lesnar has.

  • yea i know but lesnar has probly a good 90 pounds at the very least on him.

  • lol. it aint about how squishy you are. it's about how you use it.

  • Dude this guy or any other shaolin monk will destroy Brock Lesnar. Even any other stupid roid fucking head

  • u must be stupid. shaolin warriors r crazy but brock lesnar would beat this guy in less than one min. all lesnar needs to do is take him down then its over

  • Just stop. You really don't know what you're talking about.

  • and if they were to fight a sponsored match, this dude woul'd prolly check up on lesnar, and try to stop him from taknig him down. but yeah, if lesnar downs him, it all takes a U-turn...

  • I dont think, brock got lots and lots of experience when it comes to fighting...

  • this guy is buff O.O

  • His hooks are beast.

  • Awesome!

  • i can feel the potence

  • San Shou is much better martial arts than thai boxing.you can see it

  • Btw does this guy do weight training - or is he ripped from all of this training

  • Sorry but I really just hate when people talk about those UFC meatheads - they aren't martial artists :\ they're semi-body building kick boxers with a little spice... not to offend any UFC fanboys out there, but seriously.

  • my grandma would whup his monkey behind...

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy

    Well you are almost right ... but there is UFC fighters that deserve respect ...

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy

    That's an incredibly ignorant thing to say.

    MMA is a mixture of many different forms of martial arts.

    If you knew anything about the science of fighting then you'd understand that many different fighters from many different martial art backgrounds fight in the UFC.

    how about you don't slander something if you are too stupid or ignorant to see it for what it truly is.

  • @pedreschi23 The UFC doesn't convey the "science of fighting" - it's entertainment.

  • Comment removed

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy I can consider MMA and other fighting skills as martial arts. However, I am also sick of the worship UFC fighters receive, whilst traditional martial arts receive contempt. I strongly respect the integrated and creative nature of MMA and Freestyle MA, but bitches, your fighting style evolved from traditional MA. It would be worthless without the traditional MA to build upon.

    You don't need to die carrying on traditions, but respect your elders!!!

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy

    Im not a big UFC fan but I think your giving them less credit than they deserve. Alot of students I trained with at the Shaolin Temple UK wouldnt be able to go toe to toe with UFC fighters. You may find one worthy now and again on the "Team", but most wouldnt.

    UFC fighters study various Martial Art styles (including styles of shaolin and wushu), not just Kickboxing.

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy cant say I agree with you 100% there is allot of science in effective MMA fighting and from my personal perspective the UFC is home of allot of talented fighters. But yeah I can see where you could get that idea though.

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy Anderson Silva isnt a martial artist? George St Pierre isnt a martial artist? your a retard go do your research

  • Comment removed

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy ur correct they are not true martial artists, they are more so athletes

  • @ChrisTeamProdigy Thank you.

  • love his boxing (Y)

  • monks work on both external and internal power.. qi gong and kung fu.. when u grow old qi gong is more important than kung fu..

  • his left hooks would destroy someones face.

  • wow i thought shaolin monk fighting was more flips and spinning shit but this looks like mauy thai, boxing, and the rest of it (Y)

  • well current shaolin now blend their art with chinese boxing or western boxing. To apply more usage of not only the legs and palm blows but an added essential to hand strikes. theres a difference between modern shaolin and the older monestary shaolin teachings Not much if your in the zone of china, but slight differences in teachings, moves, and rules

  • This one actualy looks strong, mostly their strenght is a lot more hidden. So this one is even scarier :)

  • man ..so much power and speed in his strikes

  • i guess bruceliem is going to upload a fight video soon with him fighting this guy

  • Very hard style! mt bom esse kung fu

  • He would wipe the floor with any MMA ,K1 fighter. HIs punches and kicks are so powerful...most of you lot dont have a clue.

  • u guys are a joke. if u have been trained in any form of martial arts b4, u would noe he is not slow. i bet he could thrash anyone of u keyboard warriors in a fight with his hands tied behind his back nad legs tied together.

  • 100% Agree.

  • @dickyballs36

    and how will he avoid a keyboard punches?

  • @dickyballs36

    HE is definitelly NOTslow !!

  • this guy should join the ultimate fighter!

    asian guy vs kimbo!

  • no rules Kimbo has no chance

  • he looks like he can't balance very well in the beginning =\ very powerful man, just not very agile =\

  • I wouldn't say that he was slow. He looks pretty good to me.

  • bruceliem.. have u seen shufi's demonstration of his shaolin steel jacket? lyoto machida wouldnt even hurt shufi.. thats y he's not in the UFC. steel jacket is too strong for human

  • whats the name of this song?

  • 1:49-1:51 HES ON FUCKING FIRE INSIDE

  • Damnnn just like Uncle Sam in justforkidding films saids it,

    "Look at All those MUS-KLES" !!

  • pure shaolin power

  • Does this guy eat meat? He seems buffer than most of the Shaolin monks I've seen

  • yes he does> hes a disciple not a monk,. so can eat meat, have girlfriends etc..

  • Oh a martial monk

  • I think he is a " Secular Disciple " not a " Martial Monk ".

  • hes actually the opposite. secular disciples focus more on modern wushu. but shifu yan lei only practices traditional shaolin forms, traditional qi gong and modern sanshou.

  • But if he is a martial monk, if I am not wrong, not allowed to eat meat, right ?

  • Deadly Kick at 1:25 takes alot of precision and training to be good at

  • Thats called a front kick in kickboxing and i agree its one of my favorite kicks.the techniqu sifu shows is amazing

  • If you look at 1:50 it actually looks as if he's smoking!

  • yea i thought i only saw that lol

  • wow he is amazing. his form is perfect on every move and hes really quick

  • Holy shiat that was one riped Asian, no homo

  • Very nice hooks uppercuts and roundhouse

  • knockout power in each one and this was just a demonstration

  • sifu yan lei is his name and check his website shaolin temple uk. I am taking the shaolin and sanshou shorts from his online store

  • The body can take alot more than we give it credit for. We limit ourselves.

  • shaolin is the extreme of martial arts. its training goes far beyond the body can take. but the results are extraordinary

  • I would love to see them in a ufc match

  • Me too. Check out Cung Le's fights.

  • His punches look a lot like boxing and his kicks look a lot like muay thai. It seems that ultimately a good punch and a good kick end up looking very similar.

  • He look really strong , what a body, very fast, great punch.

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome this gets me excited for going to see Shaolin Monks perform next week!

  • Shaolin isn't a sport it's a way of life. It's about compassion not boasting about who's the baddest. What can kill is not as impressive as what can heal. Fighting as effective as it is from a Shaolin disciple is only the tip of the iceberg. It's almost blasphemy to mention Shaolin and MMA in the same sentence. Shaolin is about being a better Human Being and preserving Gods house. Check a MMA figheter in his 20's 40 yrs from now and do the same with a Shaolin disciple and you will see.

  • What's with all the arguing? Just enjoy the vid. Besides, fighting for your life and fighting in the ring are two different things. Whether you believe me or not it's the truth. As long as your martial art works for you and helps you protect yourself or fight in the ring or whatever...just enjoy.

  • man I really like that statement........that's as true as it can get

  • ever heard of daimond finger? sweeping the tree? iron shirt? then stop talking trash if you're not the one practicing kung fu. only the real kung fu practitioners would understand what i said.

  • looks like simple kickboxing

  • Guys I wish I could see a Shaolin Monk SPARRING a ufc fighter. I am not descriminating the Shaolin because I do study for a long time Buddhism and Kung-fu and I would want to see the ancient art with the modern fighters but specially a Shaolin Monk :D All the martial arts come from the Shaolin Temple but the thing is that Shaolin don't fight for entertainment and for money. It's true that they do shows all over the world and I cant wait until they come to Scotland. My dream will come true :)

  • the ones that do shows around the world are wushu performers

  • i'm glad you said sparring instead of fighting so. you have a good dream. hope it comes true =)

  • Great technique guys got a good physique aswel.

  • 好, I like dat!

  • very nice! good form.....but what i really want to know is .....is he married lol kidding kidding sheesh.

  • he is married and eats meat; he is a shaolin disciple - not a shaolin monk [i.e. he is a layman monk: he hasn't taken monastic vows]

    if you check his website by typing in his name, or type in shaolintempleuk - you will find many articles on him and his shaolin brother shifu yanzi/yan zei [who has taken monastic vows and *is* a shaolin monk]

    enjoy a good read, take care and much respect : ]

  • Muay thai is originated from Shaolin kung fu you dumbo

  • hmm well then shaolin disciples must ahev forgot those skills then

  • what are u trying to say? u are so stupid fuck...
