Makes perfect sense actually you do what works and repeat it. Your body type determines what you're going to have natural advantage with. It's why tall skinny guys aren't wrestlers and short stocky guys aren't usually strikers. Obviously theres exceptions but even with the exceptions but most of the time the tall skinny guy is good at both not JUST wrestling. And the stocky guy will be well rounded as well.

Just look at Bruce lees life story. He was a philosophy major and most if not all self defence or martiL arts come down to the art of war, a balance of defence and offence. Wing chun fighting style is quite good at this, which is why it was part of the foundation of Bruce lees style.

The trickster: What they lack in physical strength, they make up for in presentation. The brawler: The tank, what they lack in speed, they make up for with physical strength. The tactician: What they lack in presentation, they make up for in intellect. The artist: They specializes in using tactics most consider ineffective for surprising the enemy. The bully: The villain, getting in people's heads psychologically and striking their enemies physically. The warrior: Pure hearted to a fault. They are willing to work hard to make better lives for themselves. The Crusader: They did not simply enter the ring, they were called to it by a higher power. The monk: For them, fighting means personal growth. They don't care about money or spectacle, but instead an introspective sense of self.

What an awesome video. Thank you for taking the time to put this together.

This channel has completely captivated me. Martial arts is the only sport with which I truly connect, and it is the best place to physically explore philosophy because it is both fundamental to being human and incredibly personal to an individual. Before language, we could only express ourselves through gestures and movement, and fighting is one of the oldest forms of expression. You are caught between life and death while doing so. To fight is to be human; to fight is to be alive. No other sport can embody the human spirit or match the depths to which combat can transport you.

The martial art you're trained in really does affect your archetype. I've always thought of myself as an artists getting into martial arts looking up unique techniques and previous disciplines I know. However learning Judo as my first martial art, a very strict and methodical sport grounded me to lean into becoming more of a technician. I really wish to train with martial arts. It's such a different experience and unique way of self improvement in many ways. It's also such a unique type of communication between fighters. Cheers everyone

This is one my favourite videos on all of youtube. Keep up the good work bro.

I personally feel like a brawler because I fight for the shake of fighting and I especially love the intense moments inside a fight where you take a lot of damage but also inflict a lot of damage very quickly at the same time. Although I tend to play more like a technician (especially against better opponents) unless I’m against a bully where emotions kick in and I fight like a brawler. Also I sometimes fantasise about myself as an artist just because it looks cool.

I definitely feel the warrior/brawler/monk archetype. I've only just started sparring, so let's see what comes out more! Excellent video.

Such an interesting video! I was always the scrawny kid who thought fighting was silly and for meatheads who couldn't control their emotions, and instead focused on my intelligence and growing it. Now I'm 22 and in the past year have really started hitting the gym and focused on seeing what I am capable of. Our bodies are immediate reflections of who we think we are, in how we treat ourselves. They are usually the first contact others have of who we are as well. Being able to learn how to fight and how to defend yourself isn't about recklessly letting off steam, it's about helping yourself fight for the things you feel are important in your life. The reasons why you continue to do what you do. To face down fear and move forward is what makes us alive! Thank you for the video, I hadn't considered the different archetypes before, and it makes me want to start sparring, and learning more about the archetypes! :)

Excellent commentary and footage! This was such a treat to watch! I probably resonate most closely with the Monk archetype but i used to spar with plenty of tricksters! Those guys will really test your patience. Subscribed!

Of course nobody is fully only one archetype, i would say some have almost all of them. Like a Jon jones who is a bully. He also is an artist especially early in his career, where he pulled out the most unorthodox moves and popularized the Oblique kick etc. He also is a tactician as he studies his opponents and himself, sometimes he figures out the puzzle mid fight. Etc. Of course some of these archetype say a lot about their style and others focus more of that purpose and mindset behind it.

Phenomenal video and excellent examples. The technician, artist and the monk most exemplify my traits.

Pretty interesting analysis, mate. I would add that imo there are very few fighters that represent a clear type archetype. As with the character of a person that constantly modifies itself based on various experiences, fighters may fall to a dominant type of archetype category but include the aspects of others in their style as well.

what a high quality video! I expected some nonsense without any description why and so on, but really good work!

This is actually pretty comprehensive and intelligent

I think that an archetype that is not covered here but one that I have seen often is what I would call "The Sportsman" The sportsman is the type of fighter that will always fight fair and respectfully, never hit an opponent when they're down. He won't trash talk, he'll offer a fist bump before the fight, and a bro hug afterwards regardless of whether he won or lost. The Sportsman does not see the fight as a clash, he sees it as a bonding experience between two people doing what they enjoy most.

I actually found it really cool how much these archetypes hit the nail on the head. Was curious what would fit me but as soon as you said brawler I knew. I'm a dude that prides myself on durability, I really don't mind trading hits. Legit the people I look up to most are people tony Ferguson that just never quit, and lethwei fighters. Funny thing is I've always tended to gravitate to grappling sports. Like I love shadowboxing, working the heavybag bare knuckle, and hardening my knuckles, but my whole life I just end up grappling. Wrestled most of my childhood and have gotten into amateur sumo in the past couple years. Grappling just comes naturally to me for some reason. Like my striking game is good, my sparring partners always tell me to try and strike more because of how much force there is to my hits, I just end up defaulting to picking people up.

Great approach where he's sharing very useful knowledge about the world (as in the concept of an archetype and what it suggests about some commonalities shared the world over) and seeing how it applies to one of our favorite sports

trickster vs brawler

Back when I was competing in BJJ, I was absolutely the technician. I would work with my eyes closed because I learned how to feel where my opponent’s body weight was going. I’d be in guard for minutes until I felt a slip up on there end and capitalize. My old coach and my dad would probably disagree and say I was closer to the artist, I had some flashy moves (nailed a flying triangle in a tournament and ended up rolling through to a mount triangle) but I rarely used them, I preferred to pull guard and use my signature triangle choke.

Absolutely amazing video have always wanted a video on fighter archetypes especially based on mma fighters boxers being in is also great. I have not been able to find a vidoe on archetypes that is what I’m actually looking for being attached to some sort of philosophy and having this level of quality and attention put into the video.

Tournaments are cool, I’ve done a few, but i mostly go to support my friends and build new relationships. Its just a fun environment to be in, but I don’t take the winning & losing too seriously (but thats just me)

I consider myself both the trickster and the technician. I started my martial arts journey with armored combat in the Society for Creative Anachronism and rely on feigning and being unpredictable to land hits.

also I believe these video-game like classes don't mean much during a fight

@@user-ke4oz9rz8x It means quite a bit and I don't get why you instantly go to video games just by the name. It's their style and methods, not their class.

Really well done video man. Thanks

I think there should be another Archetype called "The Beast" with examples being Tony Fergusson, Khamzat Chimaev, Mike Tyson etc. The Beast Archetype is usually born into a very harsh world and he/she reflects that upbringing in the cage with a vicious and animal-like bloodthirst in their behaviour like when Khamzat Chimaev screamed "Kill everyone!" and then proceeded to roar.

I would say “The Beast” is a subsection of “The Bully” not enough difference to be another archetype

Khamzat is a bully/brawler type. Tony is an artist/brawler.

i think they're born out of desperation, like Jack Dempsey, it's either they earn money from the ring or starve to death

I’m definitely more of a technician. But lately with my interests in pursuing inner goals, I’m becoming more of a monk. I’m constantly studying my videos of boxing sparring to improve myself since I’m mostly self taught, but then there’s my kenjutsu that I’m also trying to perfect. There’s many styles to fighting but finding your own personal style is the most meaningful.

Try some kyokushin karate , you'll love it ,

Fascinating! You just earned another subscriber brother. ❤️

Really impressed with the Jungian approach you took. It all rings true; fighting style is a reflection of our individual psyches. Cool video

Can't believe Don Frye didn't make it on to the brawler list. The man is legendary.

I would also add that archetypes can be divided in different ways. As for the warrior it fits the in my opinion bigger archetype which is archetype of the hero, that would be a well rounded well ballanced fighter and that ballance is a type of a person who is more like a perfect human (he doesn't have any big flaws), in terms of body type and skills and also mentality. In popculter there is all sorts of hero archetypes, those persons are for example fit and smart (it's well roundedness) also in games, books, in Zelda the Triforce indicates that there is a ballance to a hero. Sorry for the bad english

Fascinating video! You earned a sub today mate. Hoping to see more from you soon!

This video is really good man. I hope you blow up for all your hard work. I've been working toward my goal of moving to Thailand and learn Muay Thai for a few years. These are some the videos that help me visualize what that would be like :)

I agree completely. I came to the same conclusion through my 26 year martial arts journey. I personally am a combination of the tactician, artist, and monk (I literally spent a year as a monk in a temple).

This is a very interesting take. But I would say that these Archetypes also intersect. And many fighters exist in the intersectionality of the archetypes

This is a very thoughtful video. Thank you very much.

Beautiful analysis. Thank you very much ❤️❤️✨✨

Too much confusion of fighting styles with personality types. For instance in fighting style, you would be hard-pushed to find a worse bully than Khabib. Entertaining, nevertheless.

Perhaps I was always under the monk archetype, but technician also applies. In kendo, there is a difference between sparring (keiko) and competing (shiai), and though it's the same martial art, everyone is willing to sacrifice what makes us a traditional martial art to score a victory (dirty tricks), and after my fair amount of tournaments (which I lost) and joint excercises with other dojos, I lost interest in competing, as everything I saw was bullies and tricksters overwriting their styles into competitive fighting just to win every single sparring match. Our dojo has the honor of always sending prepared people to seminars with japanese teachers, and most of the time we are the only ones not being corrected in the basics. I need to train harder and polish my techniques, so maybe one day the basics will be fast and precise enough to overcome all the dirty tricks from the other dojos, and show them that what they rejected is as useful if not better.

I feel completely in touch with these 3: - The Artist - The Warrior - The Crusader

Just found ur channel, incredible work. I think u should include the cold/stoic archetype like fedor, cro cop and alex poatan( wich u should do one video study on him).
