Dont fall on your hand! my friend just broke his arm doing this, hands close to your body and fall on your back.
correct. knowing breakfall techniques like this is essential
cheers!
How do you keep your head off the ground when your shoulders ate the first point of contact with the ground?

As someone who practices Sanda, I absolutely love kick catches and sweeps! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
looking forward to seeing you do them :P
an absolute sanda clinic. These moves are for free for the taking for MMA rulesets, and I'm pretty sure they're all are legal in MT, too. When sparring an MT person, the first thing I do is try out a few kick catch sweeps. If they're newer, hopefully they walk away with some ideas. And if they're experienced, they just hop out and then teep me to death.
Really impressive collection of footage! As always consistent technique, fast and intelligent. The chest pushes and getting the leg off the centerline really matter at times. Your narration is always really good and you include so much beyond the obvious. As always well done and much appreciated.
thanks so much for the feedback!
not sure if mentioned but also good advice to step with the kick as its caught so you dont take the full impact@@MMAShredded
Good stuff! I especially appreciate that you include failed attempts. It says a lot about you as a practitioner and a person. Humble approach. I like it
Thank you for uploading so much footage Jeff, loads of things I can use to improve my game 💯
thanks for watching!
Always such great tutorials. The best consistent tutorials on CZcams.
thank you!!
I love catching kicks and sweeping.
If I switch hands and step in, though, I'm looking to sweep thigh to thigh (like your hip bump sweep) and I always press across the chest or face.
looking at the failed attempts, aside from being heavier or flexible, the counter/escape from a caught leg is to react quick enough to put weight down on your caught leg to slow the catcher and either (hop back and) lift your foot out or twist/turn so the top of your foot faces down to pull it out. all this while maintaining balance and keeping your distance while being caught.
ill make a video on how to counter this!!
@@MMAShredded hell yeah
Very useful, as a wrestler who moved into mma 5 years ago, I love catching kicks.

Great tips!
Awesome video as usual! You are a master kick catcher! If that is a thing! LOL Awesome man!
thank you!!!!!
Nice technique Sir !
thanks!!
I just realized that I catch the sweeps pretty easy but I try to sweep the open side rather the back side as in this video. Thanks bro
cheers!
Great video from the GOAT. Come to LA already man, I wanna learn some things from you! Haha
thanks man :) im tryna make it out there!
Hello Jeff Great content thank you. Say can you give a comparison of effectiveness against a thigh level rear round kick using : 1) Thai shield or Dutch variation 2) Evasion fr Savate or 3) the foot stop also fr Savate/JKD. With that foot stop using it anywhere inside the kickers leg or the higher variations inside the hip up to rib/chest area. Where it becomes essentially a Teep against a rt rear kick. Tks
Great video.
thx!!
When I catch larger opponents kicks I pull the captured foot so to bring them off balance and then teep the the stomach. Most people flail their arms as you pull so they open up for you like a big flower 👍🏻
i love ur videos ❤ Top 👍🏼
thank you!!
are there drills you could recommend to becoming better at catching kicks
Awesome 👍👏💪
thanks!!
Jeff is it easy to catch a rear front kick to the head?Not the upward Anderson Silva stayle front kico but the all the way through straight front kick to the chin.
Damn it’s early,glad I’m awake to watch! Lol
:)
Awesome 😈
:)
some of these sweeps are pretty brutal for sparring
Bro, how do you compile all of these clips!? You must cut them and file them away while editing? Amazing!
:) thanks!

Yessir🔥🔥

Catching and flooring is not done in sparring. Sinds you don’t kick that hard to hurt its always easy to catch. So respect that. If they catch you and floor. Kick harder and hit the calf.
Thanks for all the videos 🙏
In sparring we usually drop the paste hence it’s easier to catch kick. I don’t mind if then they try to sweep me but personally I don’t sweep them I just realise the leg
What do you think ? What’s THE etiquette? What’s yours ?
hard sparring = sweep is okay. light sparring = no sweep or a very controlled sweep where you hold him as he falls
@@MMAShredded cool 👍
Hey love your style !
Love 🎉it
:)
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽️
happy thanks giving!
Im not sure if you already have this video up somewhere but if not could you do a video on the opposite? How to either avoid catches or get out of catches before the sweep, at my new gym everyone is very good at catches and its driving me up a wall 😂
I wil make one :)
I'd say look at how saenchai kicks for example and notice in his technique how fast he retracts his kick, that should help
@metalface_villain that definitely is a part of it and i am trying to do that, though i still would like tips on what to do once the kick has been caught cause someone will always be faster/have better timing than me
@@loganalvarez2985 well I'm not too advanced so maybe it's better to wait for jeffs video on it but what i personally do is try to close the distance and grab them, try to put my weight and put the foot fast on the ground, try to twist it out of their grab or im assuming if you are dexterous enough even lift it up out of their hands, not sure about this last one though xD. i have also seen people jump over the sweep but i think that needs some good timing. other things u can do is punch the other person on the face, many don't put their hands forward to protect themselves and can easily get hit and stunned briefly to give time to get ur foot back.
Watching all of these catches makes me wish Sanda was more common,
How do you defend being punched while catching? Or is it just not that dangerous? I find often when someone catches my kick, there's a nice window to clock them in the face. People who sweep me anyway are fast, leave one hand up when possible and/or hold my kick nice and high.
lean back and hike up the leg
Do you prefer velcro or lace-up gloves?
velcro becausee im lazy
🖐👺 Five stars !!

👊👺 More please ❤
I want to learn this move
practice it!!
Close punch technique to opponent
Where you look when watching a boxing fight do you look at both fighters hands,shoulders or faces?please reply because I tend to focus on one fighter when i watching a boxing fight
I look at the chest!
@@MMAShredded no I mean how you can see both fighter at once when watching boxing fight so you can easily breakdown the fight.some people say to me when watching the boxing fight watch the space between two fighters is it the correct way how to watch boxing?
@@hdeyniz2986 watch coach Barry Robinson videos to understand positioning, its the only important thing to pay attention to when studying fights, the techniques and punches themselves are just the result of the positioning and base
to really study a fight, you'll have to watch exchanges multiple times, looking at each fighter as the subject. You're bound to miss something if you're watching live.
I noticed that when you grab onto your sparring partner's leg, you leave your head defenseless to their hands which many of them actually did a light jab but I assume that in a real fight it would be a much stronger punch. Is there anyway to stop the opponent from hitting your face?
Lean back and hike up the leg
i was the 1000th like
awesome!
Catching kicks is a pretty natural movement even for noobs to some degree. What you do with it takes a little time to learn, lol
Why not kick lower to give more momentum for flexible or heavy guys?
less leverage
2'46 : bad fall, sorry for the guy back !
💪😁

The thing is this works well in sparring but trapping a full power kick to the body won't be as nice
nice video jacky chan
but some of them were almost same
its all in the details
Now all we need is how to defend these sweeps
wil make a video on that!
Great video but i would really love to see BJJ Content or Tutorials :)
ill try to make more!
Saenchai does it best
Are you retired from competing Jeff?
yes, unless ONE suddenly changes their mind and decides to pay me more
After watching, my conclusion is that the main defense to these techniques is being much heavier than your opponent. 😁
haha that helps a lot for sure!
How do you catch kicks without getting punched?
lean back and catch the lowest part of the shin
@@MMAShredded thanks
I highly suggest AGAINST holding onto an opponents kicking leg. If you notice most of the failed attempts involve the opponent also holding onto to ,MMASHredded, or in attempt to, as a counter-reactive strategy.
Rather, I highly suggest LIFTING the opponents kicking leg with a sideways “uppercut” motion, utilizing the bicep and forearm to lift the kicking leg out of the way, as opposed to “scooping” and holding onto the opponents kicking leg”
In old school Taekwondo we called it a “Cover Punch”. Often times - while starting with an “Open Stance” between my opponent: Meaning, my body is facing the same way as my opponent: I’d lift my opponents kicking leg on a offensive roundhouse, while simultaneously switching stance and jab at the body/head, with the non-lifting hand, to further off-balance the opponent and maybe add a finishing roundhouse while your opponent loses balance. The higher you “uppercut/lift” the kicking leg, the further you throw your opponent off-balance, without giving your opponent the opportunity to hold onto you. As it’s all done in one swift motion.
It’s been very effective for me as a counter to offensive roundhouse kicks from an “open fighting stance”.
I believe my deceased and possibly murdered father utilized this “cover punch” a lot. It’s one of my favorite techniques.
This technique could also be applied on what’s known in a “Closed Fighting Stance”: Meaning, both you and your opponents bodies are facing opposite directions: with a front leg, offensive roundhouse, to the body.
Are there any videos or something I can look up to understand this better?
it depends on the throw movement. A lot of the catches could be turned into a dirty single leg if the initial kickout fails. The ones that could benefit from less holding onto the caught leg are ones where you can throw the leg higher, stretching out the opponent's base more, and pretty much pull them off their support leg before the kickout needs to be applied.
You just forgot to put in catch for a front kick to the head
Worse type of sparring partner ever. Nothing worse than the guy who takes advantage of your kicks' reduced speed and power, catches them clean on their ribs, pretends it wouldn't have broken him in two, and goes for the full sweep.
catching on the ribs is a last resort, and should be combined with stepping away from the kick to take the sting off. In amateur (shin guards on) rules, I'd rather take a kick high on the ribs than flat against my abs or liver. It's extremely unpleasant to feel the ribs shifting around under the kick, but the padding a makes a huge difference in being able to take the kick at all.

Always fearing for those who had their kicks cached, n turn their bodies away, the risk of then knees' tendons tearing...
