Lack of fathers and strong male role models. I'm affected by it

@@abramlittle7102 I had no strong males in my life growing up whatsoever, no father no grandfather no uncle that wasn't a pushover and my step father was completely checked out from being dominated by my mothers drama. All my teachers were women or effeminate men. The only masculine men I knew were criminals and the sports geeks who only payed attention to boys who had athletic abilities. Everything I learned about manhood I learned the hard way

This should be in every self defense \ martail arts school thats serious about the life and safety of their students in what theyre teaching. I agree with all of them. well done sir.

NOTE TO THE FORUM: I START NAMING THE 10 ELEMENTS AT: 10:27 (COME BACK TO THE START LATER IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY THE MARTIAL ARTS COMMUNITY IS MESSED UP)

I've not seen anyone's foot/feet leave the ground in a real life situation of street violence except that it was a catastrophe for the said person. Keep spreading the truth, brother Sayf!

You haven't seen enough fights. I've seen kicks many times, one was a beautiful low kick that set up his hands for a combo that won him a fight against a much larger opponent. I've seen head kicks land, but most of them landed on their arse. I caught a front kick from a bloke when I was on the door, sent him backwards for his troubles. Seen heaps of knees, done heaps of knees.

I’ve always trained with the mentality he has, makes a lot of sense to me.

Completely agree with you brother Sayf! I always tell people this. You never wanna end up on the ground in a self defense situation. Keep spreading your knowledge! May Allah bless you Ameen!

A lot of times you end up on the ground regardless and didn’t choose to be there. When that happens you have to know how to get back up and defend yourself on the ground

l completely agree with everything you have said, you mentioned Geoff Thompson and what he said about going to the ground l practiced Geoff's style of combat in the 90s with Animal day it was Brutal all in fighting as l am from the UK, l love all your video on combat you Jailhouse Rock is the business ✊👊🤛🤜

I agree with all 10 points I’ve been saying since the gracie made it famous bjj is not effective in a non sanctioned fight with favorable rules As a former wrestler and boxer i know that the only time i wanna grab someone is when im sure i have complete advantage there Head kicks are always dangerous also because of the miss potential Leg kicks are always priority

My high school English Literature teacher said - poke in the eye, knee in the groin, and leg it. I'm still pretty nifty on my feet so I'd go straight to stage 3.

Amen, brother. I agree totally agree with your position on BJJ. I have been studying Martial Arts for 56 years. My whole martial journey has been about what works in the street. Going to the ground is avoided and not even contemplated.

Sometimes you don’t have the choice whether you go to the ground or not. Also you have to train grappling to defend grappling and stay on your feet

@@timrob0420 I think you're missing the point. Most traditional arts included some form of wrestling / grappling, because, yeah, sometimes, you might have to lock up with someone---but, that was not their core material. Jujutsu is not being attacked here; it is a viable sport, but you can't count on having only one opponent, if you get jumped. A grappling art cannot be your base, because it makes you a standing / lying target---it leaves your back, head, face, kidneys, etc., COMPLETELY vulnerable to attack. Assuming a mount position, on one guy, makes you very easy prey for the friends of his (or enemies of yours) that you were not aware of. Any fighter that has survived an attack with multiple assailants is not gonna recommend that your focus (if you are looking for something that will work in the street) be BJJ. Again, no attack on jujutsu is intended, here; you can love a sport, and still see it's shortcomings. Hope this helps.

I love your breakdown! Excellent!

Respect your KNOWLEDGE 👍

Indeed Brother

Love your content as always Sayf. Thank you for sharing. Love from Canada.

Real talk

I agree, I trained several years with Muzosa Bujikan NYC, Jeff always stresses reality & practical applications.

You're right. Jiu jitsu's original purpose was formed as a last resort if you were to be on the ground.

Fully agree sir.

Love the vid. I think wrestling, karate/muaythai/boxing and maybe Filipino martial arts fit your criteria, correct?

great video. btw, regarding improvised weapons, what martial arts do you recommend?

Great video old-school i definitely know about the first combative instructor that ya said from word of mouth from you over the years if you'd give me the pronunciation of the second 1 I'd really appreciate that peace and blessins

What about a video about a Martial Art for the ring or what kind of optimisations need to be made to a martial art to be effective in the ring?

By any chance you still have the underground philly shell program?

You are talking the truth! I grew up within Birmingham inner city (rough areas) I have worked the doors for over 10 yrs. I absolutely agree with everything you've said. BBJ, Tang So Do, karate and some of the Krav Maga guys I've met obviously have never dealt with violence and what they teach is how to hug and tickle people!

what martial art do you recommend for that 17:30 that has blade training?

I think boxing will be my base then train muay thai then Judo. Judo will eventually teach me GROSS motor take downs, joint break in a basic way too.

sounds a lot like Urban Combatives...🤝

But since I discovered martial arts, I prioritize fluidity in my movement. I own 8 pairs of minimal/ barefoot shoes because bjj made me realize I lack cordination, balance ect.

There were a few things at the beginning of the video that you hinted would be covered in the end of the video. Did I miss something ? In your opinion is it Krav Maga that is best for street violence ? Is this what you said you've been training for 3 years ?

Sparring is the key. You better know how to fight on the ground.. But you also write to I don't wanna be unfair what you say. Two extent

While some teachers show their students how to hold someone in place to get a submission, I teach mine how to hold them in place to push their thumbs to the back of the eye socket. I use the term "combatives", but in truth, it is ASSAULT.

Prolonged adolescence is a HUGE problem.

Alhamdullilah, I would love to know this Martial art that would be best for the street. My thought is probably RAT.

What you're saying SHOULD be common sense. Growing up in my neighborhood, we ALL knew that. You mean you actually have Suburban Kids who argue against this? They can't really be serious. If they are, they are too foolish to be listened to. I hope they never have to find out the hard way....because that would be tough. Great commentary.

Yes, you need speed and power, but you also need timing and sparring. As the only way you get it.. And what happens when you get a man and he don't go down

Please make a video addressing: Proper way to make a fist I left my boxing gym. For many reasons. The main one because the coach in "beginner" didn't teach the proper way to clench a fist after I humbly showed him. This resulted to: Handwraps reinforcing Improper form, lack of control in sparring, stiff shoulder mobility ect. They let heavy guys use 12oz gloves for sparring....same gloves used on the bag and the mitts. Iam 64KG using 14oz only sparring gloves. One of the coaches is "Muslim" I shamed him...At least I didnt do it in front of the others, Mercy from my part. If our Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: to his respected Companions (RIP) "no strikes to the head" it was for a reason! I went live speed on a moving heavy leather bag. I could tell that the participants in "Advanced"" looked surprised that I did it without wraps or locked fists. We humans are ALLAH's proudest creation, never forget that!

lol, what about all the early UFCs? Are you kidding me?

It must feel very sad to watch the social deteriation of basic thinking when you are intelligent and have applied yourself to excellence for an entire lifetime.

I doubt this is what he practices but actually Kung Fu San Soo matches all those categories, Also Japanese Jujutsu, MCMAP, and old school Hawaiian Kenpo and Kajukenbo just to name a few. Growing up in NJ there were a lot of schools that had different backgrounds but also updated training methods to round things out and adapt to modern threats.
