Techniques best kept for a STREET Fight VS the Cage
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 20. 07. 2024
- I had a fun video request, asking to discuss which MMA techniques would work in a street fight versus which techniques are best kept in the cage! Although I am no street fight or self defence expert, I have been training MMA for 15 years and these are my thoughts.

Did you guys agree with my thoughts?? All in all, street fights should be avoided!

Yes, boxing and low kicks for me
Would like tutorials on standing on ur feet from bottom guard as well as performing judo throws. Thanks fot the vids đ
A hipthrow is clever when someones headlocks you then you can get his back and finish him
I disagree with the calf kick. You rarely fight just one person in a street fight and you don't want someone down on the ground right in front of you because they can still trip or imbalance you in a way for others to attack you. Teeps can be utilized in a variety of ways safely for you to cause distance for better escape openings. At least from my experience

I agree
Remember the best option is always to walk away especially in America. One fight with a random nobody isnât worth your life.
100%
yea cause americans will most likely use guns instead of fighting fair, not being racist or anything
@@eru2723 street fights aren't even fair without firearms
@@eru2723 If some goofball walks up and is a physical threat to me, a loved one, a friend, etc. I'm not going to have a Mortal Kombat fight with him. I'm going to make sure myself and others get home safely. If that's using a gun or not, so bet it. No such thing as a fair fight in the streets, brother.
@@eru2723 it's OK to say black ppl
Head/arm clinch is probably the most common clinch position in a street fight. So YES, tutorial PLEASE!!!
thanks for watching!
@@MMAShredded we waiting Judo jeff
If you want to be able to apply these techniques, I highlt recommend joining an MMA gym. Videos on youtube, especially videos like Jeff's, are super helpful for giving you things to experiment with during training in the gym, but without the latter existing, you wont be able to apply them. It usually takes me about 5-10 attempts before I manage to do some of the things Jeff shows in his videos.
Head/Arm clinch? While in the clinch try to give your opponent an elbow from the inside on his head
most common grapples I see are : Guillotine chokes, full nelsons (usually followed up with a throw), and rear naked choke
A tutorial on standing back up ? Yes please !
Do not stand back up right away if you got push down to the ground in a fight. When you try to stand up after you fall, you will expose your back, that leads to all sort of problems. Use your leg to create distance to the attacker, up kick him if he try to get close and slowly standing up while moving backward. Better learn some BJJ if you want to learn more about this situation
will def make one brother!
The derrick Lewis technique
Interested in seeing your approach to Judo throws.
will def make a video on it!
@@MMAShredded It would be awesome!!
The coolest thing is that even medieval HEMA manuscripts recommended push kicks as a tool to use during battle. So if even armored knights used this, that makes a lot of sense.
Really ? Because i remember historical masters don't advocate punching and kicking. Some manuals show you when to kick but only to push kick opponent to create distance. Fiore only talk about oblique kick to the knee and using hammer fist to reinforce your grappling with weapons. What document are you referring to ?
@@jaketheasianguy3307 this sounds like the extent of what I've read as well
@@jaketheasianguy3307 Yeah punching and kicking has no use vs armored opponents other then bring them out of balance which is basicly how traditional JiuJitsu and later Judo came to be. Sweeps, trips and hiptossing opponents that came running in was the way to go. Also, when downed getting up with armor is very difficult.
interesting!
I *think* by "punch kick* the mean push kick. I have spent some time looking at many of those manuals and punching isn't advised in anything I have seen. Push kicks sometimes are as well as various grappling techniques
2:06 I busted out laughing, this is premeditated murder đđ
lmfao!!!!!
Actually tho! That was friendly fire!
If you fight against a SINGLE Opponent, always try to grapple. Untrained People just don't know what to do in these situations, but they all can throw swingers. But as you said, against multiple opponents: Box!
true!!
Its super effective sometimes i won most street fights by grappling and im a strikerđ
Grappling in a street fight against the untrained is basically a cheat code. You literally have the power to do whatever u want. You can hurt them or restrain them. Itâs up to you. As long as itâs a SINGLE OPPONENT!
@@wrestler-kickboxer2524 if you got multiple opponents in front of you: Run, boy, run!!!
Idk I guess everyone can punch but alot of people can't punch correctly, personally in the few more serious situations I've been in, punching in the face, kicking/kneeing their stomach, or some sort of throat grab worked excellent. But I just personally prefer to stand up when fighting.
definitely interested in the judo throw tutorial and the getting back up while eating punches aswell haha
LOL . thanks I will def make a tutorial!
Agreed.
Yay , Iâm happy not to be the only one who wanted that video lol
Yes would love to see more no gi judo application for mma / self defense!
I think judo and muay thai is a really good mix.
Teach us variation of Judo Throw please master :)
I will do bro!!
That running foot sweep you showed at the end can be found in Silat, Aikido and Okinawan Karate. It's great ! I love it ! I think you could use it against anyone... Once.
nice!!!
Judo and BJJ are two of my favorite grappling arts. It would be awesome if you did a video on judo for MMA or the streets !
will definitely bro!
I never liked training judo yet it's the only thing I trained as a teenager that ever worked ! (before I started thai boxing I was into karate & kungfu)
@Knight-Sgt. Reyes it's occasionnaly efficient only if circumstances are good for it, I wouldn't rely on it for my life
Awesome video. Thank you!
My two cents: in MMA, I would recommend people should train in Boxing, Muay Thai, Jits, and Wrestling (or good alternatives like Sambo, etc) .
For "street" self defense, I think I would focus more on boxing and wrestling. I say that partly for the offensive capabilities, but more so for the defensive capabilities. Boxers can throw a good punch, sure. But a good boxer is REALLY hard to hit. A wrestler can take someone to the ground, sure. But a good wrestler is REALLY hard to take down.
For a street scenario, if you can avoid taking any damaging punches and can avoid getting taken down, that's absolutely more than half the battle.
true!! thanks for watching!
Very solid points, but stop saying âJits.â
Best comment for sure đ
Gotta love how pragmatic this video is that delivers more content than all self defense videos. I did so much mystical martial arts like karate shotokan, kung fu etc.. only to find out it's basic judo that worked in school fights, thanks for giving Judo the place it deserves in your arsenal of life savers !
hehe thanks for watching!
Would love judo throw tutorials, I love Judo, very underrated and usually overshadowed by BJJ
thanks man I will make one for sure!
Great video as usual. In my studies of self-defense. Iâve learned that the physical aspects are only one part of a much larger whole, and while people usually want easy answers, there are far too many variables and exceptions in an actual violent confrontation to actually give any.
thanks man and yeah i agree!!!
Dont ever go for a complicated submission when in a street fight. It's not even a matter of multiple opponents. Lets say you got the guy in a basic armbar and he decides to pull out a knife with his other hand cause realises that he is losing. He can easily slash you femoral artery even when you break his other arm. Ground and pound keeps both hands of the opponent busy.
We did this knife drill at my gym and the results were quite shocking, how many times you can get sliced before you can disengage an armbar/leglock
cheers!
Snap his arm if you see him reaching for a weapon.
Ground and pound ends up with you getting stabbed all over the place as well.
@@tjl4688 you most likely won't see him is the thing. It's not worth the risk. Ground and pound is much more violent and it's harder to think and react when you're getting punched in the face.
@@tjl4688 breaking something will make him more likely to sink that knife deeper. Its not a movie
I have made it out of plenty of situations where I was outnumbered in a street fight.
One of the biggest tips I can give is to constantly move. Make sure you are being peripheral about the space you are moving into, I have trapped myself into a worse position before and learned the hard way.
Something that always worked for me when outnumbered and being rushed was to hit the guy in my peripheral (not the one my attention appears to be on) it really does work. Here's why, as you change position to hit the second guy you will often inadvertently be moving off centre from the first guy... it's accidentally defensive as well as something people don't predict.
Honestly footwork is the most important thing in a street fight though... no point being a killer if you trip over the curb. Even if you can hit hard, if you're in a bad position to be risking throwing a punch you're gonna get blind sided by their friends.
thanks for sharing!
Wholeheartedly agreed. Footwork more than anything else is the most important thing I've ever learned in martial arts. My asskickings during sparring plummeted as soon as I figured out proper footwork. For the streets, I'd add boxing defense on top of that. So many KO's happen because people don't move and don't keep their hands up, use head movement, pivot or fade back. Also a lot of martial artists don't want to hear this: Streetfighting =/= your martial art. The no rules aspect of streetfighting changes everything and you're not as prepared as you think you are for real combat with untrained maniacs.
One of the best no-nonsense self defence videos I've ever seen, subscribed.
thanks :)
Finally someone who draws a comparison between the different context and shows how the technique selection changes based on that.
I love submission wrestling, but I got to pass on that in a street fighter. I personally would use the scoop throw which you showed at the end.
thank you for watching!!
Great topic, I would also like to share my experience. A lot of Jeffâs principles are sound and have used them too. I got into a street fight about 4 years ago while playing football/soccer in London. We both got into an argument, I donât even remember what I was about anymore. During this time, Iâve been training full time in Muay Thai for about a year with 13 amateur fights.
We both stepped off the pitch, he immediately put his hands up (but I donât think he was trained). Instinctively I threw a fake jab into a rear low kick, followed by a lead upper cut into a straight cross which connected with his nose. He scrambled and tied me up but I managed to get him into a double clinch. I dropped my weight into a lunge loading a knee but suddenly the whole team came out to break us up.
I was it worth it? No, I had blood all over my new top (a gift from a friend) with the collar all ripped up safe to say it was a waste of money. Every time I saw the guy I was afraid of retribution, very awkward. But what I would say is whatever your discipline is practice until you can use it Instinctive and end the fight as quick as possible and just trust yourself.
oh wow! thanks for sharing your story!!
Hey man. Good to hear your experience. I hope you two don't have ill feelings anymore
I love how Jeff lays out street fighting vs training. I trained in Muay Thai & Kickboxing but I was always curious what could get you into trouble in a street fight.
thanks for watching!
I have been looking for a video like this for a long time, honestly you have one of the best fighting channelsđđ»đđ»
thanks David!!!
great video format! showing the techniques side by side to compare them is a great way of presenting them.
thank you!!!
This video cleared most of my confusions, oh and I want your next video to be on judo throws. Keep it up:)
thank you bro!!
I LOVE doing fancy kicks in sparring, even the few times I fought full contact I've done them, but I fully agree with your points on primarily boxing as it allows you to keep both feet plantet so you're able to move, ultimately that's the goal to get away, and if another attacker presents him self you wanna be able to angle off. My experience with more self defense focused sparring validates this, also when the ground is concrete, it has more consequence going to the ground if you slip or get swept. One thing to note is that it makes sense to try and adapt the boxing for similar mechanics but with palmstrikes instead, so you don't break your hand, which you might need to trap or weapon, or just to be able to continually punch without further hurting the hand.
thanks for sharing!!!
I appreciate your no bs approach to this. You've given me some additional considerations. Good work, Jeff!
thank you bro!!
This is one of my favourite videos from you. Please make some more videos related to self defence
Great video, the one leg takedown tip with your legs is gold
thank you!
I'd love to see a standing up tutorial, I've been trying learn how to do a Derrick Lewis for a while
will def make one!!
This is gold. Lots of great insights here. Thanks for posting.
thank you!!
EXCELLENT video AND choice of techniques for the street! Also...YES a tutorial on how to stand back up!
thank you! and the video on how to stand up is out now here: czcams.com/video/y-AvgbFBzQk/video.html
That running sweep is so cool! I can see that working on a lot of people who would likely throw a haymaker at you running at them or leaning to far back.
100%! cheers man!
@@MMAShredded the running hip sweep works. You do it well.
Judo throws video would be great!
ill def make one thank you!
I shared the same sentiments, my friends and I were talking about the same exact topic last week. Incredible technical analysis! Keep up the good work!
thanks man!!
With all the helpful content on the platform teaching us how to protect ourselves on the street, I've come to the conclusion that the one move that always works no matter who you're up against to defend yourself is to simply point at them with a gun
That hip sweep could definitely work in the street, especially if you already threw a powerful leg kick but they're still coming forward. It's definitely practical to do that in the case of multiple attackers or even just going directly into knee on belly after they fall to the ground.
true!! thanks for watching!
Lets see a judo video!
will def make one!
I really love this STREET fight video. Very VERY! Insightful information and good points about a street scenario.
thank you!!
Jeff Chan you always bring the đ„bro! Your videos are always so informative and technical. All the best as always and I'm already looking forward to your next video-Sean
thank you for your support brother!!
interested on the judo throws!! especially since im only familiar with gi-based judo haha
Highly recommend this video for Judo players who want to transition to no gi grappling or MMA czcams.com/video/qv-g0cTdAiI/video.html

"Avoid spinning kicks" đ€Ł those are the best bro

Super informative. Subbed. Love all the street fight mimicking experiment.
thanks for the support!!
Sick video! Excellent info.
Well said Jeff loved your video. Recognising the difference between sport, and the Combative arts. Im personally now going through this transition. Teaching the Combative arts to help protect the community.
thats awesome man!!
I never heard of the running leg sweep, sounds interesting :D
haha! cheers. check out this video: czcams.com/video/tcbuQm1y-jQ/video.html
Yes would love a running hip sweep video
I keep this video in my bookmark until this world ends. I love your analysis and this will a foundation for my training which will cover for both sport purpose as well as reality application
That running sweep would work IMO. And Iâll say yes to every single tutorial video you proposed. Keep them coming. Your content is high quality.
thank you brother!!
Having spent significant time in corrections and law enforcement, the majority of fights I came across were extremely ânon-technicalâ. Your advise to keep it to the basics and not leave yourself vulnerable when it come to self-defense (I assume that is what you primarily refer to here) is spot on.
thank you for sharing!!
best judo throws for MMA please!
will def do it!!
@@MMAShredded you actually did! thanks
Love your content bro, thank you!! Cheers from Spainâïžâïž
thx!!
Ooh fascinating topic. Well I train Muay thai, so believe it's good to have strategies against agressive, bigger opponents and those who rush forward with punches. Learning detailed frameworks for defeating all types of fighters has been huge part of improving my game.
In terms of techniques to use, I believe if there is a square up to punch first using a fast multiple punch combo that has been trained to be instinctual as it is simple and can usually end the fight. I also believe learning how to throw all techniques with perfect form is pivotal.
Teeps can be very good as they are harder to catch but people will try so can set up punches and elbows and stops agressive opponents when thrown properly. I also believe leg kicks can do alot of damage and be scary to someone untrained. When sparring my untrained friend, I was also able to use foots sweeps as he came forward which can enable you to get on top or put them on the retreat.
Hope you enjoyed my insightđ
thanks for sharing your thoughts!!! I did enjoy your insight. cheers bro!
Last parallel double leg sweep definitely works in real altercation.
Iâve used it ( traditional Shotokan technique also used in kickboxing)
Great clip full of powerful advice .
Thank you đđ»đ„
awesome!!
This channel is the best, really informative.
thank you!!
Thank you for sharing this type of video, Jeff. Love how you tempered the expectations that while you aren't an expert in the self-defense realm you still have loads of fighting experience and are willing to give your assessment on the subject matter. Respect.
As someone that's trained and taught self-defense (krav maga, specifically) the past 5 years and with 10+ years fighting experience (Muay Thai, boxing, BJJ), here are some insights to also consider. Overall, this video has some really good advice/insights and sound judgment behind it.
One of the things I really enjoy most about Jeff's assessment throughout the video is how he mentions a different flooring (ie concrete) and potential multiple attackers. Another thing to consider is you're going to be in street clothes. Next time you train, try doing it in street clothes as this will have a much different feel to it.
Another thing to consider, as Jeff mentions, with regards to your opponent is they'll be emotional, angry, violent, etc. Keep in mind they're more than likely going to have quite a bit of a size advantage on you so some of the takedowns and sweeps will be difficult to do.
Definitely agree to keep it to hands/boxing. When it comes to kicks, stick to more linear kicks such as front kick aiming for the groin or push kick to create space. There's also the knees you can aim for along with the groin and solar plexus/abdominal region as these are more sensitive areas from the front. Jeff mentions using the push kick as a way to create space later on in the video.
When it comes to multiple attackers, don't be in the middle. Attack one, use them as a shield if you can and keep the attackers in a line to make it difficult for them to attack you. Jeff did a really good job of circling around his multiple attackers and constantly moving. This is exactly what you want to do.
With the Muay Thai clinch, you also have elbows you can throw from that distance. One thing to note is if you're that close to your opponent, they're that close to you so make sure you protect yourself.
Overall, pretty solid assessment and really liked how Jeff used his experience in fighting when assessing whether to do one type of an attack versus the other (or both) and gave the pro and con of each. Great work.
Hey brother thanks for the feedback! Would love to learn from ya one day!
Very nice and instructive video. As many already told you, it would be great to see your approach on judo throws. Thanks, man!

A tutorial on standing up/surviving from the back would be super helpful! Not sure if you have content regarding takedown defense but I would benefit greatly from that as well!
I will def make those tutorials! As for takedown defence, check out this video: czcams.com/video/FHp-k31llgo/video.html
Dude that running sweep looks sweet! In addition, could you cover the type of punches to throw, best for a street fight?
I love it!! I love all your content dude!đđœđ±
thanks man!!
*Street Fights Tips:*
1. Stay loose (esp. at a distance) and jab the nose and chin. Let them use up their energy.
2. If close, shell up with a high cross guard and block their punches with the elbows. The average person wonât be hitting the body or breaking a cross guard (which is better imo because you donât have gloves to block the shots) and will likely be throwing haymakers - easy to break their hands on your pointed elbows or hurt their forearms and wrists.
3. Step off line and smack the liver, and keep moving.
4. Donât tense up unless youâre defending and theyâre close.
5. Distance: jabs and Low leg kicks
6. Close: elbows and inside trips.
fantastic video!! it's great to have a pro's view of risk vs reward in a street fighting environment. Thanks!!
thanks for watching!
I like how you consider the settings and talk about disengaging all the time. A more kind approach in street fight instead of going even further than necessary
thank you!!!

@@MMAShredded welcome jeff
I just called you in instagram about street fights and you got me in the face with this video!
Thanks for listening to my thoughts!
hahaha :)
This is gold! Great stuff, Jeff. The only thing I'd add is that in the clinch, one of the most effective ways off finishing the fight would be to use elbows and headbutts. Kind like in Lethwei.
thanks bro! I can agree about the elbows but no head butts for me! haha
Thatâs really useful. Im wondering have you make a tutorial about how to stand back from bottom guard? Anyway, really good video!
Very good analysis!

this is actually helpfull and is working perfectlly on streets
Adrian getting ragdolled by that running hip sweep will forever be featured in the MMA Shredded highlight reel
LOL
Thanks Jeff to your videos, they are always great and very helpful, Iâve improved a lot in these two years with your videos, recently I was confronted by someone for looking at their car(what a stupid thing) he came up to me and said why am I looking at his car or him that long. Even tho I have hours and hours of sparring, 4 amateur fights and confident about my skills, I was able to avoid conflict even tho he was trying to initiate a fight. Conclusion is, avoid fighting at all cost, especially if you have skills. Yes there can be situations where youâre right and the other person wrong, but there is no shame in avoiding the conflict and simply running away if youâre alone. We learn MMA to improve, to meet new people and release our energy to become a good person outside of the gym. Thank you Jeff again
100% bro im glad you were able to avoid that conflict! respect bro!
Very good points here. I agree with everything.

haha it sure was fun! thanks for watching!
I am actually getting back into training again boss. I passed the bar and in practice for 2 years and I am out of shape. I have more losing cases than winning ones as a public defender and threats are now prevalent more since more unfavorable judgments are being unloaded recently. Seeing my clients eye me and wait for me after office hours, I am switching fron my previous Muay Thai training to MMA based. I am a small dude (pacific islander, filipino, 5'2) and gained alot which slowed me down alot as well. Other than firearms training, Thanks for this video since this is what I was looking for recently. I hope I can avoid fights and if needed and unarmed, i could kick ass in formal attire on my feet like you. Thanks for the inspiration Boss Jeff đ€
no prob! congrats on the bar passing!!!!! keep it up!
Nice overview, lots of good points. I would also add to keep in mind the laws of your contry, since some countries can have ridiculous laws, that could make you (the defender) face legal consequences if you injure the attacker too much.
That's ridiculious, I know - but it is what it is. Keep that in mind with some of the techniques.
true!!! thanks for watching!
Superb Video Jeff â€.. yes of course i want tutorial for judo throws..đ€ Love and support from Sri Lanka
