Chuck Liddell Teaches the Spinning Back Kick

[No1EndoRush]

I can do it better!!

[andrelimabr]

THIS is a tough guy.

[LittleBigMii]

DUDE That is not a spinning back kick! That is a "Spinning Rook Kick"

[sdurgefafd]

sorry but he dont really know how to teach , hes a good fighter bu not really a good teacher

[jaqdudley]

Why are his toe nails black?

[azfryguy]

@rickyx1 I heard its so there nails dont split

[rickyx1]

@azfryguy yeh ur rightt, make ways more sence than distraction lol

[nousername21]

Watch how Joe Rogan does this same kick! /watch?v=W3N5Rnx37O0

[IsolationInstigation]

Chuck has his big toes painted black. Haha, what a boss.

[EddieKuntz94]

Joe Rogan is better.

[aoshi3000]

pretty nails lol

[tapoutcampion111]

your thinking of mma fighter that use tkd and do nothing but kicks. but it's self defense is more realistic they kick low like knees groin etc. they also use hand strikes that are very realistic. and they work. I used tkd to defend myself. It is never the martial art. it is always the martial artists. so you should go learn some tkd and use it for self defense. it really reliable just like every other martial art out there.

[yellowmustang71]

is there a rounhouse kick that would strike the same area?

[vespaman101]

@yellowmustang71 round house? uhhh idk about a roundhouse... cuz i think those will all come in from the sides. u culd just do a side kick or a front kick. like a push kick or something when a guy comes in.

[andregomesnf]

I can kick like this, and I've never done any TKD or MMA! lol

[omghahaxd]

@andregomesnf i would say 100% of people under 60 can do this kick

[andregomesnf]

@omghahaxd I don't think so. It's not easy to kick like that powerfully and fastly

[Zahrec]

@andregomesnf It's something else to acutally be able to use it in a fight!

[xxmagnumforcexx]

believe it or not joe rogan has a nasty Spining Back Kick there is a vid where he is showing GSP it ... just thought i'd mention it if anyone is trying to learn from these vids

[xxmagnumforcexx]

@xxmagnumforcexx sorry the rogan vid is a spining side kick..but def worth checking out

[funterms7]

i figured out this kick by my self, the left foot in first thing, makes me feel good :D it was hard to get the spinning correct, but i did it on my own

[Mr95candyman]

at 2:08 look! ice man has painted his toe nails!!!

[greytails]

this is like so easy for me since I'm in tkd LOL.

[ragefanaddict]

why are his toe nail painted black??

[jakedanx]

@ragefanaddict fighters paint their toenails because it helps to stop them from splitting when they kick

[ragefanaddict]

@jakedanx ohh, thanks man, learn something new everyday lol



[TradingWoWaccount]

I always get taken down when i try this kick, they always get my back ;p

[minasz]

Right away my thoughts said Benny THE JET Urigidez from back in the day.

Who still remembers him...?

He had one of the awsome and effective flying backkicks

[GuardianAngel5150]

@minasz Benny was the man.. I think he said once something like "I dont throw no spinning side kick, I throw a side kick after turning.

nobody knew WTF Benny was talking about back then when he said it? But now they do because just about EVERYONE is taught a turn side kick, no spin. Yet some people even pro fighters still insist on spinning then throwing a side kick/hook/wtf kick.

lack of good fundamental training IMO if a fighter doesnt know the difference.

[swrcrew]

Joe Rogan show how to do it the right way Chuck version looks rly poor and so wrong

[allantoney1]

LMFAO...." IF IT AINT THERE WHEN I START , I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO BE THERE WHEN I FINISH"

CHUCK YOU ARE THE BOMB.......

[TirnanUFC]

I have a video of myself doing this.

[SheffieldUK1984]

@TirnanUFC lol and???

[isakdick]

what's the name of the song?

gangstas ballas hustlas cap peelers, who we be? the neighborhood drug dealers. sounds like lil jon

[AlzQuu]

@isakdick Yes, it is Lil Jon. The song name is E-40 ft. Lil Jon - Been There Done That.

[Sh1ekk]

OMG hes so bad? wtf is he teaching?

[SEMPER6FI6RAIDER]

thx chuck but you get knocked out too much to wanna listen to you anymore,,lol

[jagdjohn96]

@SEMPER6FI6RAIDER fuck you

[shotojojo1986]

@SEMPER6FI6RAIDER your an idiot.

[df61660a]

haha, is he in a church?

[MissLaughALot9799]

his toenails are painted black lol cute

[cleberinthearea]

Once a guy tried that on me and i punched him right in the face....You get vulnerable to being punched in the face when you do that...You expose your back...I wouldn't try that move.

[ronki23]

@cleberinthearea i'm not sure if it was a spinning back kick or spinning hook kick but back in September, my instructor (aged 34) was fighting an 18 year old; he was kicking the 18 year old's ass and won round 1 and even gave him an 8 count. In round 2 however,he got nailed with a spinning kick and was given an 8 count. Shortly after, the 18 year old gave him another spinning kick and broke his rib-it tempts me to learn this kick!

Plus it look cool

[lilsm555]

@ronki23 Spinning hook kick is your basically swinging your heel at the person however spinning back kick or turning side kick is what chuck is doing. Spinning hook kick is a risky move that can leave you open or off balance not many people use it.

[lenandos]

this is actually a good kick... i do mixed martial arts boxing, judo, brazilian ju jitsu, kickboxing and all that so i know my shit. howevere we dot hat kick much different, he is very close we use this as an alsmot lunging kick. his leg is also to the side resluting of loss of power throught he hips. perhas hes shit

[funkymunky4000]

What's up with the painted toe nails??

[dobberdoss]

Is he called the 'iceman' cause he always needs some ice for his glass chin after a fight?

[RedEyePergo]

why is chuck wearing toe nail polish? anyone else notice that?

[racingmylife15]

@RedEyePergo I did. I never understood why people do that.

[SergioRocaBarrientos]

Jerome Le Banner can teaches him how is this =)

[Gza36Chambers]

I know chuck lidell could kick my ass in a second but holy fuck he has no technique in this kick. I would hope no one uses this as a tutorial. he doesnt even turn his head and lower his back losing a ton of quickness and power.

[amarendra420]

@Gza36Chambers I agree with you but alot of people like Chuck Liddell and Forest Griffin change their technic moderately to fit their fighting style based off real experience. Really anyone ameurter or pro will do this.

[Gza36Chambers]

@amarendra420

I understand what you are saying however his technique is still inefficient. The way he exposes his back and leaves himself vulnerable and the loss of power.

[depredatewarrior]

black toe nail polish. really chuck? just go ahead and hand the guys your man card.

[greenone]

@depredatewarrior lol wtf man how can you talk shit to liddell he has accomplished more than you probably ever will.

[sprawlmessiah]

he hit Vitor Belfort with it during their match

[BruceLeeKills1]

Nice nail polish Chuck

[kornholeo167]

@BruceLeeKills1 they are probaly just black from kicking shit all the time

[rampage42]

if you wanna see GOOD spinning back kicks watch cung le. he is a great striker

[MrPolskaDuma]

Does Chuck Lidell paint his toe nails? WTF????

[ksungjin10]

@MrPolskaDuma so does chris leben

[ScotishScraper]

i have dropped plenty of people with this move in tae kwon do

[lsoneblood1]

dude Chuck is such a good coach no wonder he won the first and the eleventh TUF

[bestkidguy96]

what song is this? its great :)

[sprawlmessiah]

He did that kick to Vitor Belfort

[cueballB]

@ itsallgood321. Right, you can't hit the back of the head. But you can still throw a hook or a cross to the side of the head though. Fact of the matter is that you wont do that because you're defending against the kick, or you won't have the range to cross the distance. Either way, you're better of defending or avoiding a kick like this, rather than an immediate counter

[jakeisawesome91]

the spinning back kick is referred to in tkd all the time. but chuck's version is basically a sluggish version of a aerial reverse kick used in traditional kung fu. surprise surprise (to all you kf haters out there).

[itsallgood239]

the only thing i dont get is in MMA (or UFC atleast) you cant hit in the back of the head. Well if a nigga is gonna do a spinning back kick his head is completely open but yet you cant hit it? if the person is gonna take the risk to turn around they should be able to face the consequences

[44rumblefish]

@itsallgood239,

Man, I'm not sure, but I think in a case like you described, you might just be able to get away with it. If I was able to tune into dude's set-up before he delivered the punch, I'd strike and call it an accident. Hell, dude's trying a high-risk, quick move; who's to say he didn't just turn his head away before your punch landed, right? But that's just me.

Peace.

[OwayneKhoo93]

@itsallgood239 Dude,this kick is so powerful,you would be flying before ur fist hits his head. The only part of this kick that your open to is your standing knee. I bet you couldnt hit my head if i did this kick on you.I NEVER feel open on my head when doing this kick.

[MrPolskaDuma]

@itsallgood239 When you do the kick it pushes you and your opponent away from each other.

[neonblack88]

@itsallgood239 Well, your spot on thats exactly how it works actually. if he turns into it it's not your fault, just like if you do a spinning elbow and it catches the back of their head its not your fault cause you weren't aiming for it. Your apponent doesnt stand still like a bag so its expected that some strikes arnt going to land exactly where intended. Same as if you slam someone and mid slam they put there head in a position where its going to land first, thats not considered spiking

[neonblack88]

@itsallgood239 Also theres no way your gana land a punch while hes going for a spinning back kick. Not a good idea for a counter at all.

[JiuClaw22]

This is Raymond Real Deal Daniels kick

[SDoherty93]

now i can kick my pregnant bitch in the stomach (Y) bout time

[InfiniteOptionz]

@SDoherty93 lmfao

[megapatch80]

imagine what that could do to a little kid! lol.

[ZeroMalarki]

Not a big fan of the spinning back kick but that's because I do so much muay thai.. I just can't see it being as practical as the theep or a sharp shin. If someone crushes, that's going to be bad.

[ArianRohani]

Why the fuck is that guy holding the mits like that? The left arm is supposed to be under the mits, and the right one over it. Not behind the fucking thing, he can injure himself!

[StackOber]

why are his toe nails painted black?

[Ratchet645]

shut up wwechamp

who likes wwe anymore?

[wwechamp7]

nothing special about his back kick

[ShatterEffectt]

@wwechamp7 lol, nothing special, but pretty much anyone's back kick is better than that fake WWE and TNA shit, oh i'm sry are you a fan of fake drama bullshit? oh yes you are

[wwechamp7]

@ShatterEffectt you tell me how to change my username that i made 3 years ago and i will change it.

[ShatterEffectt]

@wwechamp7 make a new account. plus you should never have been a fan period, the stuff is over dramatic garbage

[wwechamp7]

@ShatterEffectt well considering i was 13 or something can you blame me?

[ronki23]

@ShatterEffectt I like WWE and MMA-the girls in WWE are hotties and back in the old WWF days most of the wrestlers had legit skills-heck,Undertaker has BJJ skills, Kane and Bret Hart have Wrestling skills,Daniel Bryant trains at Extreme Couture. Heck,Brock Lesnar/Bobby Lashley and Sakuraba are a few who have come from Pro Wrestling. If nothing else, it maintains the wrestler's skills/improves their fitness. Plus it looks fun :D

[sambabal123]

why does he have black toenails?

[emmanuel90212]

crazy night in vegas

[sambabal123]

lol

[A7XMAN94]

he ran out of soap in the shower that morning

[RyMikeConway]

chuck the ice cube liddell

[magmagmag715]

u should try saying it in his face and not behind your monitor  lol

[RyMikeConway]

yes i would say it to his face cuz he wouldt have the balls to hit me cuz if he did hed be a bum with no job an in jail for quite a while. An i dont think he would do that cuz some kid called him an ice cube.

[InWitheNew]

@RyMikeConway You sound like a pussy.

[Soccermaster1083]

@RyMikeConway so ur pretty much a pussy who is going to hide behind the fact that he cant legally hit.

[RyMikeConway]

@Soccermaster1083 yep

[GSXraja]

Chuck is a good man, teaching everyone how to do this, its pretty cool

[tapoutcampion111]

one of the most powerful and basic kick in TKD

[SuperBluepurple]

@tapoutcampion111 and karate and muay thai and generic kickboxing and kung fu and savate

[1080famous]

@tapoutcampion111 tkd suckssssss

[davidsscalfoni]

@1080famous you sucks!

[IsolationInstigation]

@1080famous Which belt color do you have in TKD?

[elitedonk]

Am i right to say this kick lands in the balls quite often lol??

[NinjaWarriorDude]

@elitedonk yup.

[jolderon2]

From experience...Yes it does and trust me you feel as though your balls are way inside your throught. lol

[newmeat123]

@elitedonk hhahahha and the spinig backfist lands in my nse quite often to hahah blood all over the mat then guess who has to clean it up ME!!!

[NinjaWarriorDude]

@elitedonk no.. its doesn't

[EPR89]

@elitedonk Hmmmmm. Memories of long forgotten times.

watch?v=RhZtgTCwFTI

[beargrylls3]

@elitedonk yes. half the time i throw this when sparring it makes my partner not want to work with me anymore lol

[dantefromsomm]

@elitedonk no it actually doesnt cuz its coming straight at you. the leg kicks do because they are some what coming up at the crotch area

[rangedat]

@elitedonk Nope

Usually in the liver/solarplexus

[snipet19]

i tried this kick on a long punching bag and it feels so much more powerful than my normal front push kicks. the spinnning really does add power, but i dunno if i'd ever try this move in a real fight, seems to risky turning my back on my opponent like that.

[MrGilliams]

you would want to do it in a fight if you see your opponent throwing a strike, youll hit them first if it turns out good.

[bottlebrusher]

MrGilliams,

Yes, that's true. I used it in a street fight once followed by two more kicks...my attacker never saw it coming and he was hurting bad and gave up right away after my third kick in front of his friends who jumped back after the first kick. They tried to jump me, thought I was an easy target.

[locohellraiser]

i like his haircut XD

[boxer2285]

i was kinda worried for the kid lol

[redos12]

Not a spinning back kick u idiot. He runs thru it and does a turning back kick (toe pointing down) then he turns and jumps and does a jump spinning SIDE kick, make up your fucking mind. A spinning back kick = you do spot target (he said he doesnt thats why he misses pad mostly) and your leg comes all way thru and would target side of head with the HEEL, not in front of u as he has pad.

I dont give a fuck if he does MMAr, is just for brawling streetfighters and wrestlers no skill or technique

[DeMoNSe3d]

Who are you calling idiot? the guy who posted the video? or the actual guy on the video? Its pointless anyway cause the guy whop posted the video probably doesnt know the name of the kicks and just chose that name for the video, and Chuck Lidell was and still is an amazing fighter, and if you thing MMA doesnt require skill then I guess you are the idiot haha.

[tymanic]

Are you saying chuck has no skill or technique? cause if you are... i advise you do some research buddy

[chigurh999]

Why are chucks toes black?

[TriggerHappyD]

manliness?

[cwillis500]

he paited them for a support walk in texas against rape and domestic violence i believe.

[cwillis500]

paint

[hotze123321]

nice video 5*

whats the name of this song

[senseinakayama]

agains vitor belfort he used 3 times...

[Hughjass505]

ok wtf, if chuck likes it so much then why have i never seen him use it when he fought?

[minamototsuki]

I think i saw him use it once...I don't know who he fought though...but i DID see him do it....ONCE...X3

[Rasmusssss93]

He used it in the keith jardine fight..

[secret212000]

it's an effective move in terms of how much damage it can inflict, but it's very risky, especially in the octagon.

[SarahSunwalker]

No it isn't. It's hard to land, but it's also hard to counter.

[thefightclub2]

its actually easy to to counter but since the power thrown in to the kick is so high it is very risky in any situation

[SarahSunwalker]

How?

You cannot parry it like a front kick; if you try to, also, and fuck it up, you'll be in trouble.

The best I can think to do is step backwards and to the side a little and then come in with a late counter kick.

What I'm saying; have you ever seen anyone actually manage to grab the kick, like they do a round kick, and then throw them? I havn't.

[tymanic]

Anderson Silva vs James irvan(i think thats how you spell it) james threw a right roundhouse to the ribs... silva caught it... pulled his leg towards him... and throw a right cross... the momentium of the pull made for a perfecto knockout

[rearnaked51]

yea thats a stud kicking the bag, even if he's in half motion...

[chotoch430]

thats only a back kick not a spinning back kick

[secret212000]

same thing...

[Voodutube]

Put your face CLOSER to his foot genius!!!

[Shonem]

Painted toenails....

[shortymeems]

Because HE can LOL

[TagItUpz]

If you hit something with your foot really hard your toenails get dark blue you fucking dumb pussy ass bitch.

[Shonem]

I'm sorry I can't understand you with that cock in your mouth.

[TagItUpz]

Yeah that makes perfect sense since i'm typing. Do the world a favor, and crawl back into that shit hole you call a home, and go hang yourself. No one loves you.

[Shonem]

Did my comment about chuck painting his nailsmake you question your sexuality this much to get this pissed off?

[TagItUpz]

Nah you don't understand, there are stupid people that don't know what they're talking about, and proceed to anyway. 90% of these idiots are housed on youtube. hi.

[Shonem]

Ah, so you are one of them?

Because I was a bit confused, it didn't seem like we were talking about anything.

You just got offended at the idea that chuck might of painted his nails.

Either way, it's rather pointless and you clearly have nothing better to do with your time.

:\

[oreowithmilk1]

i think when you do a spinning back kick and it doesnt knock him down you should instantly follow up with spinning back fist. i think those are the top 2 most effective spinning moves...

[SuperChevy446]

agreed

[Illumirage]

Imagine the spinning back kick combined with a spinning back punch, like one second afterward.

That would catch people off guard.

[matdifelice]

thats been done alrdy by nate marquardt check it out it was his fight against wilson gouveia unreal combination

[lamtartarus]

look up nate marquardt. he pull that off and got a tko.

[Roryoo94]

the lad who is holding the bag is shitting hiself

[streetfightermatt]

haha im sure you would be too, body pads still hurt if your partner has a lot of kicking power

[TheTissurePaper]

lol those silly little bags hold nothing against chuck liddell, If he were to kick you while you were behind that hed still break your arm =P

[anchovi94]

u better hope u mean chuck liddell and not chuck norris.

[DeafStevie]

The guy holding the pad nearly got knocked on his ass.

[unin00bster]

not gonna lie. spinning back kick is the shit. probably the only spinning technique i'm fond of as well, because you don't need to come all the way back around. it's a quick, and *extremely* powerful strike.

[mongoloeyd]

why do the heavyweights and light always have small legs? look at brock lesnar and chuck

[Nquerques]

because they have huge muscle upper bodies but its hard to make your legs huge like that

[seaFoodSifu]

That's the most bs reason ever. hahahaha

[commandersprocket]

body torque, more body, more torque

[thecrazyoftheinsane]

he should open up a school he cant fight nemore i mean his chin is totally gone but hes got some sick advice.

[sharpsh00ter40]

i love using that kick

[RiAnisthebomb]

do you think the guy holding the bag feels the power ? lol

[budspotz]

Fuk yea lol those pads dont do fukal when you got someone throwing a hard kick you either breath out or get winded lol

[Moviebro]

Simple effective

[bkd24]

i saw him at the red sox game it was sick
