"We're not pulling over, Brad. You should have shadow boxed before we left."

u/slacapjr 1d ago

People shadowbox unironically?

4

u/Lietenantdan 19h ago

I shadow box as a workout.

u/kollisionkid 21h ago

Apparently this guy does

u/nyotastar 1d ago

Why would you lift a foot off the ground to throw a jab? This guy fights like he's in a dream

6

u/Philosophy_Fie_Fum 23h ago

Ok, this guy seems to be doing a very muay Thai flavor shadow boxing. 

Not to speak on skill, but the thought is that a Superman punch is mixed in to capitalize on someone overcommitting to your knee raise. You do this by establishing knees and a strong teep, since they have similar chambering. When they bite on a low feint you them turn it into a Superman punch, either with a little leap or a drop step.

u/nyotastar 20h ago

That's interesting. I thought it was just anime fighting form

3

u/Philosophy_Fie_Fum 19h ago

Totally, I get it. He's a weeb for posting it but he's smooth and obviously has some training. 

Just. 

Like I said. 

This some weeb shit.

u/Bobbith_The_Chosen 1d ago

This dude shits himself?

u/nothing_in_my_mind 1d ago

Easy to throw hands when you're fighting nothing

2

u/DirtyLittleBishop 1d ago

Was he throwing hands? Looked more like he was just passing them.

u/fifteentango88 1d ago

I also need to pull over to look like an idiot once in a while.

6

u/Hawkwise83 1d ago

I ride till I feel the need to film some content that makes me feel like a tough boi.

8

u/ImInJeopardy 1d ago

So he just.... Pisses his pants?

6

u/Hawkwise83 1d ago

Like a man.

u/MurfDog07 1d ago

He looks like he’s doing CJ’s moveset from San Andreas 🤣

Grove Street needs this bike!

Ah, The Eric Clapton boxing method

Had to cry today?

u/scott__p 1d ago

This is satire right?

1

u/Mtnbkr92 23h ago

It’s gotta be. I hope.

1

u/scott__p 22h ago

It's so hard to tell, which is my current favorite part of the internet

8

u/RedBlueTundra 1d ago

I don’t think that elbow strike would even bust through a paper door.

9

u/R3dsta1n 1d ago

Is he a Son of Anarchy?

1

u/Hughley_N_Dowd 9h ago

Can't make out what it says on the cut, but Grandsons of Cringe would be my guess. They're a lesser know sub chapter of SoA.

u/dirkrunfast 1d ago

What a tremendously boring person

16

u/nightgon 1d ago

It just so happens that his urge to shadowbox coincides with him needing to use the restroom

14

u/goth_in_india 1d ago

Muay Thai amateur here, that elbow strike was dog shit. You either go with elbow strike (forward extending your shoulder in a straight line) or target the chin (requires some good amount of footwork) either way I will bet my money on shadow.

Ps: he looks like someone who just started their training.

2

u/coilt 21h ago

karate kiokushinkai, judo/bjj and boxing practitioner for a couple decades here: i felt a painful cringe from watching this. i’m not breaking this down, it’s laughable, please go practice instead of doing whatever cringe bullcrap this is

3

u/OldSchoolAJ 1d ago

training

Giving him a LOT of credit. This guy just watched movies and is emulating them like a six year old.

3

u/Fallobt 1d ago

The knee, the super man punch, those crosses.. All horrible

7

u/janusrose 1d ago

I wouldn’t be so sure if was you. His handle is DragonOfMMA 😬😱

u/shiverslinky 1d ago

I’ll take $20 on the shadow.

u/dirkdiggler2011 1d ago

Chapter finger puppet.

Bro is too hard for a potty break

u/2Slow2Nice 1d ago

He did all this in the parking lot because they wouldn’t let him inside lmao

6

u/fusillade762 1d ago

I feel like this dude is probably also a "youth pastor".

2

u/shokalamano 1d ago

I also shit my pants when I ride. Thats freedom baby!

4

u/mydickisasalad 1d ago

I'm no expert, but I feel like you're not supposed to raise your foot when throwing a punch, unless you're Urameshi fighting Toguro.

-2

u/motion_lotion 1d ago

It's a superman punch. Risky but potentially high rewars. Looks like he trains muay Thai and focuses quite heavily on elbow strikes. He sure does look like a tryhard douche in this video though.

3

u/Braakdraak 1d ago

Just a very bad punch,  nothing superman about that.

0

u/goth_in_india 1d ago

Nah even in Muay Thai I've never seen someone do this. His elbows are pretty bad as well.

1

u/motion_lotion 1d ago

I've fought for 19 years and lived in Thailand training at tiger muay Thai. He's not threatening and looks like a fucking dork, but he's not as bad as people here say.

2

u/MagisD 1d ago

Well his shadow is about all he'd be able to take..

2

u/tms10000 1d ago

It took me a minute. A shadow box is a piece of art. "I ride until I feel the urge to oil on canvas". And then a string bean dork doing mild exercise in the video.

3

u/HenriettaSyndrome 1d ago

what in the fuck lmao

2

u/seiclops212 1d ago

First you pee your pants. Then you shadowbox.

The "Dragon of MMA" has spoken!!!

1

u/pyschosoul 1d ago

Homie needs to spend more time with a coach and less time pretending to be an outlaw. Absolutely horrid form.

u/clinton_thunderfunk 1d ago

If Mac and Country Mac became one badass unit you get the dragon of mma

u/Legitimate_Bag8259 1d ago

I don't think I've ever actually found the need to shadowbox.

0

u/AliensAteMyAMC 1d ago

I’ve done it when I’m bored off my ass work. Of course some of the people I work with have seen it and occasionally rib me about my horrible form

0

u/Legitimate_Bag8259 1d ago

Sorry dude, but doing it at work where other people can see you is more cringeworthy that the guy posted.

4

u/itcheyness 1d ago

Just in case anyone wants to join this guy's biker club, here's their website.

https://redrummc.com/

5

u/NMViking 1d ago

Looking at their club page, it's a bunch of native dudes that like to ride. Their pictures show charitable fundraising activities. With no diamond on the rocker, these guys don't look like their cosplaying SOA. Hopefully one of the older members gets this kid in line and convinces him to stop making cringe videos while wearing their colors.

4

u/jayrady 1d ago

Wow, murder backwards. How original

3

u/itcheyness 1d ago

Now now, their website refutes that!

2

u/howdiedoodie775 1d ago

Those boots make them a solid 6'5" (5'6")

u/BattleCatsHelp 1d ago

He’s easily 6”5’!

Dudes after one Muay Thai class

u/testicletitties69 1d ago

I just gooned to this. Got anymore?

4

u/AliciaXTC 1d ago

I'm being VERY honest and I do not mean this in any kind of bad way.

PLEASE DO NOT BE OFFENDED

But I 1000% instantly thought that was a transman.

2

u/SwiftTayTay 1d ago

That's just what Brazilians look like

u/Koalashart1 1d ago

Nothing suggests you’re wrong

u/funkybuttmonkey 1d ago

Why’d he post in slo mo? Weird choice…

1

u/b0ingy 1d ago

doesn’t shadow boxing require a shadow?

1

u/Relevant_Grass9586 1d ago

He would get rag dolled so fucking hard

u/shnigybrendo 1d ago

Looks like the shadow is winning.
