Anderson knows what he is doing, but if there is one thing that Sherdog loves to criticize it is fighters training methods.
I am a black belt in Alaskan karate.
Not sure on the AS part about him training it, but there are some really slick combos that flow pretty fluidly in this video. For someone with Silva's technique and movement, I could see him being able to pull them off.
Whats funny and sad is that these guys would beat up a shit ton of sherdoggers. lmao
lol @ filipino boxing. this is just sloppy boxing with some arm deflections and kicks
I agree.Can't right off any techniques because a person skilled enough to implement them in MMA could easily come along out of nowhere. We thought Karate had no real use in MMA ten years ago, now here we are 2016 raving about it.
Oh yeah, training with Danny Inosanto for some of that.
No problem, really cool to see a high level MMA fighter like Silva seeking out Guru Inosanto's wisdom.Thanks man i found a vid i´ll put it in the topic
Why do you have to put in check what i am saying? If i´m saying AS said so it´s because he said so why would i invent something like that? Am i a filipino boxing trainer?
This is the interview at 2:50 he will say he is training boxing filipino for one year
Filipino here, who learned boxing in the Philippines and also studied Kali/Escrima/Arnis.
what you see in the video, and someone more knowledgable should correct me, is not "Filipino boxing," it's the modified form of Arnis (also called Kali or Escrima) which is really weapon combat (batons, knives, short swords), the type taught by law enforcement teach. but again it's modified for hand to hand combat--which is actually taught, but I don't believe it's technically called Filipino boxing

this thing they are calling filipino boxing is some adapted form of empty hand (no sticks) style of arnis/escrima, a traditional filipino martial art.Is there such a thing as Filipino boxing then?

"suntukan" (based on the word for punch) is the techniques where you're using your hands and arms which has punches, elbows, bolo punches, palm strikes, etc. which is what this filipino boxing thing seems to be (or at least heavily influenced by) but I've never heard it called "filipino boxing" in philippines. must be a name some westerners gave TMA to make it easier to market
if you go to a gym in the Philippines and said "i want to learn boxing" you would not learn suntukan, you would learn western boxing like Pacquiao.
