Evade the punch with the footwork, then break their structure with a side kick to the lead leg — before they ever get to reset. Just one of the ways we deal with a counter punch in the new long-form video, live now.

After controlling the blade hand and breaking the arm, this is the takedown — trapping the attacker’s arm with a shin across it, keeping the blade pinned and useless. The fight isn’t over yet.

Takedown secured — now what? Guess what comes next and let me know below 👇

This is how it ends. With the arm trapped and the attacker taken down, the blade gets disarmed, and you counter with a thrust of your own. Control the blade hand, break the arm, takedown, disarm, counter — watch the complete sequence at full speed to see how fast this actually happens.

Once you’ve controlled the blade hand, here’s what comes next: rotate the attacker’s arm up, hyperextend it, and drive their elbow into their own shoulder. One rotation, and the arm is broken — taking the weapon out of the fight.

What if you can’t run from a knife fight? What if you can’t escape? Here’s the first and most critical part of surviving it: controlling the blade hand. Angle away from the thrust, then grab with two hands, circling the blade hand to take control before anything else happens.

Let’s clarify exactly what the 3 moves are. Move 1: the block. Move 2: the elbow to the bicep. Move 3: the double hammer fist — one move even though it’s two strikes. All three coincide together. The bladder strike after that is just a follow-up, not one of the 3 — add juice and strike with the palm as hard as you can. Follow-ups in general are limitless — there are a thousand ways to finish from here.

In close range, my position might look open — but the whole idea is to stay glued to your opponent, not create distance. Once you’ve broken their structure and balance, you’ve got options: a bladder strike into a takedown or a sweep. Staying close also means they don’t have room to move. And if you’ve got access to the lead leg, an elbow there can split the muscle — or at minimum leave them with a dead leg.

Same combo, different angle — because footwork matters as much as the strikes. When they strike, I’m moving. When I strike, my body’s moving too — never standing still. Break the hook, immediate counter elbow, ricochet punches, bladder strike. Then watch it all at full speed from this new angle.
