StroopsMMA had a great day training with Vitor Belfort. We did many stations but just took a few clips to put on here! This video has Vitor doing a round with Caoch Shawn Tompkins in the Stroops Python Striker Suit... this round was after about a 2 hour circuit of Stroops Equipment
RIP shawn topkins

@doctorsizzle you're talking about spending time training on bags? Every fighter works on a bag, but a bag doesn't move and hit back like a fighter does, and yeah you spar at gyms too, the gym I'm at recently had to make cuts and is now down to only BJJ but when they had Boxing and Muay Thai we sparred 2 times a week. Fighters do spar and hit the bag and all that. Yeah I agree you need to learn to throw straight punches without the bands though. You shouldn't have to force it like that.

@SamuraixJack 2cont. the same thing over and over again creates a more confident and well conditioned fighter.
GSP has a varied workout, but can't get out of jake shield's weak ass jab? really? how is gymnastics gonna help him?
these camps/schools take your fucking money and you spend NO time on bags and sparring?
so much said, i'm sorry, but if you're not going to commit to bands, your body can't adjust and develop the benefit sought from bands.

@SamuraixJack well, like i said...what good did it do? if you're not going to commit to a training exercise you will never incorporate it physiologically.
american based training is a fucking farce(especially in fighting)...very few schools break from the norm. it's just a bunch of trainers that all bleed the showhorse, the fighters.
they have you doing all this shit and when you see them in the cage=AVERAGE.
for instance, look at thai fighters...the same thing over and over again

@doctorsizzle well that alias was given to him way back when he was fighting at his best when he was younger at the age of 19.. with his style, charisma and with his hunger to win back then was impressive specially when he beat down wanderlei, when he fought heavier guys like ferrozzo, abbot & many more, coz the weight wasnt really an issue back then. but I know you have a point..

@niVanoJ what PHENOM? vitor was always hoped to be a big name in brazil. he looked good, young...but he just never really did anything. he's fighting, doing more than me right now...but fact is...the title PHENOM isn't appropriate. DAMN Silva is a PHENOM. vitor just fights.
