My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. We have some of the world champion fighters that trained at The Wat. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. Frankie Edgar, another one of my fighters, he currently owns the light, the lightweight title. Um, Frankie, very very good footwork. I think footwork is probably one of his keys to beating alot of his opponents. Um, very deceptive, very good footwork, base is wrestling. Boxing is getting very very good. Leg kicks, eh, you know just a good good all around fighter. I think alot of the fights he has had, alot of people have underestimated Frankie. And you know coming up the ranks people didn’t really take much notice, but hey, he won the title, he came forward. And now you know, everybody recognizes Frankie Edgar today. Frankies strength, um, as a fighter is his ability to be very deceptive and excellent footwork. You know if I had to explain it I would say, one minute he’s here then he’s not there. And then he’s there and not there either. And with that being said, using that with his wrestling ability, his boxing, this muay thai, and the jiu jitsu is a very very hard fighter to fight and hence he has the title today.

My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. We have some of the world champion fighters that trained at The Wat. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. So now we’re looking at opposite stance. Uhm, you know, like I said before, left guarding, meaning you’re protecting yourself with your left side of your body. Sometimes you end up meeting someone who’s left handed and these are all, like, the general. It doesn’t mean it’s always the case, but the general answer is you have to watch his left hand out. That left hand is the power hand that now is not a jab anymore. It’s not a little judging kind of a distance shot‚ trying to check out where you at. It’s something coming very very very powerful. And if you don’t pay attention to it, you will get caught with that left cross. So, right now we’re both in left-guarding. And right-handed, this is power. This is the jab. It’s not very powerful. It can be, but the best part of it, it isn’t. So when he throws a jab I can parry it away. I can just stop it, making it to me. So I can ignore it, kind of. Now he comes in and he’s left-handed. So this is the power now. If I don’t pay attention to this, I’ll get caught. Now, over the years of just doing this with the left hand, and now all of a sudden it comes with its power. Boom! You can get caught. So, if you’re fighting somebody with that opposite stance, if you can and you’ve been fighting enough and you know how to do it effectively, you want to try and change with them. So now when he throws a jab I can still do the same thing with the power punch. I can come away and he’s going to watch my power punch, the same thing. But I really got to pay attention to anything on that side. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a punch. It can be the punch; it can be the kick; it can be the knee. Anything on that side is definitely going to be power.

My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. We have some of the world champion fighters that trained at The Wat. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. Attack and feint, you know, an attack or a feint you’re trying to set your opponent up. You’re trying to make him make a mistake. You’re trying to somehow, like, I explain it more so like a salesman. You’re a salesman. You’re trying to sell something to your opponent, so that he‚Ķand when you know he’s bought it, then you can cash in, hopefully get the hit that you’ve been trying to get. I want to try and demonstrate 3 or 4 different ways today how you can use an attack or use a feint to set up your opponent and hopefully get a good shot in and take care of business. The feint is me trying to bait him to throw a punch at me. So it’s a basic one-two punch he’s trying to throw at me I’m trying to bait him into. So, I can be here in my stance and I start making him think I’m gonna go towards him. Normally if you go towards somebody they throw the punch and they hit you with it. So what you’re trying to do is you’re feinting him to make him throw that punch. Make him throw that punch. So what I do, I do the little short move, this is the feint. And as I do this and he throws the punch and he swings his right hand I move back on his punch out. As he retracts that hand is when I move in with my punch. So I kind of set him up in a sense. I’m doing this, doing this, doing this, and when I go in properly and he throws that punch, I move back and as he retracts it I go back in. I‚Äòve just got to make him believe that I’m gonna be here and he’s gonna hit me with that punch. If I stay here he’s not gonna throw the punch but when I start doing this, that’s what makes him throw it–bang! And then I move in with my technique.The link to the sample transcript does not reveal the transcript for more than a few seconds. Would you provide a better example of what you want, or give me some feedback if the transcript for this HIT is INcorrect, please? Thank you for the opportunity to work.

My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. When people leave my gym, I want them to leave feeling confident about how they walk down the street, and I want them to feel that they can defend themselves, and I want them to feel better about their day. UFC fighters come to me for my style of Muay Thai. John Jones called it “Kru Philosophy.” What is Kru Philosophy? It’s not about brawn, it’s not about, you know, hitting as hard as you can. It’s more about how to make him do what you want him to do, how to make him think that you’re going to do something that you’re not going to do. It’s more about using your mind and being a very, very technical fighter, and, at the end of the day, to win that fight. That is my Kru Philosophy. You know, I have three of the champions right now, so it’s a style I think is working for MMA today. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC.

If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. Wanderlei Silva, very good stand up fighter known for a lot of his stand up and what he introduced into the Pride days when he fought against Rampage Jackson was the Thai clinch and using the plum. He used the plum to clinch onto Rampage Jackson and threw pretty devastating knees to the face, to the body, actually broke some of Rampage’s ribs in some of those fights. They fought twice and I think both times on those fights that the stand up portion of Wanderlei’s arsenal actually helped him win the fight; using the Thai clinch, the plum, which I’m going to show you with Nicholas. He actually held Rampage Jackson here and beat him a few times with the knees and actually broke some of his ribs in some of those fights. Wanderlei, very tough, aggressive fighter comes in the ring to fight; or comes in the octagon to fight. He doesn’t go in there; you know, he’s not one of those fighters who’s gonna move around and use the octagon. He’s coming in there to fight. So you know when you see Wanderlei Silva fight, there’s gonna be action, fireworks, some powerful knockouts if he connects.

My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. We have some of the world champion fighters that trained at The Wat. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. Going into stances. There are various ways of stances. I’m going to try and cover like three of them. One’s Boxing Stance, Muay Thai Stance, and a Nai Stance. The Muay Thai Stance, Muay Thai Stance your hands are pretty tall and you got to have a bit more of a round vision of what’s coming your way.. My hands being out, I can see the knees, I can see the punches, I can see the kicks, I got a lot more of a peripheral vision that I can see with. With the Boxing Stance, my hands come back a little bit more. Now imagine I have a boxing glove on, a big boxing glove here, I cant necessarily see the person’s knees. So If I am in a Muay Thai fight and I am fighting like this, now I don’t see his knees or his legs as well as if I had them like this – so that’s a slight change of the two. Now MMA, the person is trying to take me down, I got to cover my legs, I can’t be so tall, I can drop all of this, and I lower my stance, and I stay very, very low watching for the shoot so I can sprawl and get out of trouble. Probably could still have the Muay Style open so I can still see what’s going on but the level is lowered completely.

Learn about opposite stance counterattacks from kickboxing champion Phil Nurse in this Howcast UFC training video.

My name is Kru Phil Nurse. I run a Muay Thai-style fighting gym in New York City called The Wat. We have some of the world champion fighters that trained at The Wat. If you want to find out more about The Wat, you can contact us at thewat.com. Today we’re gonna be talking about the UFC. I’m going to try to show you two ways to do counter attacks in a opposite stance today, one of them you are going to be your opponent is going to be in the opposite stance and you’re going to counter attack. And one of them you’re going to switch your guard to an opposite stance so counter attack against your opponent. Both of them you can use you know in various different ways I’m just going to show you two. Okay, so opposite stance Nicholas is in the opposite stance which we would call this like a south pole and I’m in regular stance. So, my guard is up if he goes for a hook I’m going to try and block his hook and grab his fore his bicep with my forearm and my hand on the inside. So, as he goes for the hook I step in here grab to the head and throw the knee into the body he is in the opposite stance he is using his right hook powerful punch or it can be a powerful punch where I’m I cover it block the arm step through come with a knee. The other technique is; we can both with the same stance and with this technique I’m going to switch myself into a South Pole position, to here and now he goes to throw a jab at me. So when he throws his jab he is a bit more of a type of technique when but as he throws his jab I’m going to move myself out to my right side. So as he throws the jab I adjust to the side and come through with a right cross. So a little bit of foot work involved in that as well but we were the same I switch make him throw the move I move to the side as he throws that jab and then I come with my cross.
