I really enjoy how he fights always with supreme calmness composure and precision, like hes solving a math equition rather than fighting in a ring.

His footwork definitely sets him apart. He's so good at creating the right distances while also setting himself up for combos/counters. Also the way he interrupts his own rhythm to throw his opponent off is crazy. It's why he always looks like he's in control and never overextending, yet he lands with knockout power.

He looks utterly unstoppable. If he masters wrestling and/or ground fighting too, I can see him become the best pound for pound fighter in the world, no joke.

I like the comparison with the GOAT iron shin Ernesto Hoost. He is the only other person I've seen break his opponents arn with a kick. And he did that to a prime Jérôme Le Banner, the French champ who was build like a tank!

Yeah saying a fighter has a kick like Hoost is pretty much one of the greatest compliments you can give them haha. Hard to think of a better power kicker than Hoost, only 4 or 5 come to mind to compete and most of them are Muay Thai guys from Thailand.

Le banner took damage previously being in a tournament, I’d this this is more impressive as they’re both fresh

one thing i noticed is when he L-steps, instead of bringing his right leg forward back into stance, he slowly lifts it like he is going to then explodes into his side teep. the opponent doesnt have the time to react to the quick acceleration and break in rhythm

@TheModernMartialArtist

6 ай бұрын

That's exactly right, it's part of how he breaks his rhythm. He always explodes forwards between the normal stepping patterns, off beat.

The way he fakes his roundhouse into a front kick is beautiful. Fun fact, Bas Rutten was a vocal advocate of this technique and used it in many of his Pancrase bouts.

@shinomori69

I first saw it on Bas Rutten's MMA DVD set and would drill it in the gym when I was healthy enough to train regularly. Landed it in the one kickboxing bout I was in.

His technique is so clean and always practical , it’s just beautifull to watch.

Incredible video! Love seeing these type of thorough technique breakdown for different combat sports!

I remember watching a random fight of his, and I thought to myself i’ve never seen a fighter look so calm and relaxed he almost looked bored in the fight dude is the real deal.

What a good breakdown! Well done! I really love that teep into a side kick. I have never seen any thaiboxers do that before.

HELL YEAH keep it up tmma this video warmed my heart, i know you have good ins with glory so you keep covering their fighters but lets not beat around the bush we just simply dont care too mutch. But this? This is somebody at the top of the sport and in modern day too, great work!

Great breakdown! The fight with Petchmorakot, who is a superb fighter, is one of my favorites matches.

Tawanchi is one of the best fighters I've ever seen, in any discipline. I found him by accident a few years ago, and watching him fight is like watching a dance of destruction, I can't say enough good things about him. I'm a boxer, not a kickboxer, and I can't help but imagine him as a middleweight boxer...wow!

Another great breakdown on an awesome striker !!! Will we get some videos on Takeru (since he's scheduled to fight Rodtang) and Superbon too ?

A very subtle technique of his seems to be facial expressions -- he smiles and make his opponent briefly relax like they're sharing a moment, and then unleash a combo flurry

Glad to hear it!

Cold and as brutal as the iceberg against the Titanic

great skills, handsome, trains with master Seanchai also guarantee good discipline. This guy will be a legendary.

Future goat for sure. He has it all - speed, power, defense and perhaps most importantly, timing.

Superbon will give Tawanchai a run for his money in the kicking department! Super hyped for that one.

What I like w thank kid is that is a true and moral warrior. He respects his opponents. He is human and great athlete. I see other fighters they are criminals. They want to destroy, to harm even to kill some times. This guy when he sees his opponent down he retreats calmly and he is not jumping at him punching a many times unconscious person. These guys have primitive instincts and not respect at all. He is an exemplary warrior... someone who is teaching skills and respect as well. May God bless him.

Tawanchai really playing Street Fighter irl with those microsteps and set ups man

Gonna try and get to see him vs Superbon this month. He's insane.

the trick is to counter the rotation of your kick with your hip so the kick is like a whip and helps you with balancing. The speed makes up for the power lost in how kicks are usually thrown.

I like watching his fights, he is so relaxed. Reminds me a bit like Cro Cop, nothing to worry about in the stand up strikes

great breakdown

Haven't heard the intro song before. Sounds great!

Shin bone strength is one of the key advantages Thai fighters usually have over foreign Muay Thai fighters of similar builds who adopted the sport later in life. Western fighters usually has the height and arm reach advantage, but you're not going to find one that's been conditioning their Shin bones since before their teens. That's why kicks from Thai Muay Thai guys are more likely to break bones than most. Should look at fights betweem Thais and Cambodias, the Cambodian fighter regularly end up with broken arm or leg after entering the ring against a Thai.

Thai Boxing peaked in the 80s and 90s, straight killers everywhere during that time, also there was way more money and prestige in the sport back then too

background soundtrack is excellent

A video on how to develop iron shins would be very cool

His muscle from legs , body and hands look very strong , training from childhood up to present built His strenght , His blow can knock out most of His opponent

i remember the CroCop vs Fedor video. never let a slugger a chance to move forward.

1:30 hearing you absolutely butcher louisville being a kentucky native was the funniest part of the entire video

His kicks have a Savate inspired hop step in them. esp for his teeps.

His kick-to-close-range-punch shuts down the opponent's kicks, and guarantees that the opponent can only respond with punch counters, which he already has setups for

his boxing is soooo goood

I love using the teep sidekick when I can, but the thing is, sometimes my sparing partner will say that's cheating because it's neither a teep nor a round kick.

What a nice guy. He even wears fluorescent green socks just so his opponent know how the lights were turned off xD

FINALLY!

Tawanchai's bones aren't just stronger than yours on a 1:1 basis, his tibia is stronger than your femur, and his tarsals/metatarsals are stronger than your skull. That's the kind of strength you only get from kicking everything and everyone from the age of 7.

Can you make video about third fight between ali and norton please :(

I love tawanchai

Cro Cop mastered the high kick knockout. Ernesto Hoost mastered the low kick. Tawanchai does it all. If Tawanchai got good at boxing and takedown defense, he'd slaughter his way through the MMA ranks.

He looks like Dennis To. The young Man's Hair doesn't get Tousled during his Fights.

00:03 The ref must have heard a/the crack, or 'screech' from the opponent after that kick. 100ms after the kick the ref's mouth goes agape/gasp, and immediately looks to the arm and calls the fight, the arm is also 'screened' out at that point. I don't recall seeing anyone with faster kicks than Tawanchai's, not this kick particularly, but all the other high kicks.

His punching techniques are so unique not like boxing

Bro is so cool

Can u do one about Dany bill 🙏

superbon video next?

Masato kobayashi explained?

I think that Tawanchai himself would say that those kicks that Modern Martial Artist says are feigned are actually strategy recalculations.

Superbon blocked it a few times. What a fight.

He seems laidback, is it his kicks and punch are pinpoint precision. His shin must be the hardest.

The never mentioned the contant reajusting of the boxers and thumbing his nose. The ultimate 4D chess move to distract his opponents, you think he's relaxing for a second but out of nowhere comes the sledge hammer.

If you're talking the relationship between the two fighters, look at who is at their preferred distance. That's usually who's winning the fight. Next look at who is dictating the pace and timing. The person who is throwing when they want to and keeping their rhythm even when the other person throws is probably winning. After that it gets more specific but those are the easiest to gauge the fight. If all else fails, pay attention to who is landing what kind of strike and how often haha
