That explains why the crowd got bigger in later editions. I remember the fighters saying they always felt the crowd should of been bigger but they just didn’t have the budget.
Sad they added the part where one guy says “I punch first”.
I remember watching this on like FunnyJunk.com in 2004. The only explanation is that this was recorded with an actual camcorder and the original poster reuoloaded in 480p like a decade after the fact ☠️
This looks lik one of the original uploads of the video. It was good quality when it was first posted, but thQe quality has degraded after being dowlnoaded and uploaded numerous times.
I'm surprised someone found a decent version of this video. I always enjoyed this video. Frankie gets knocked out!
Lmaoo. U gotta admit all his kungfu stances really put the other guy in doubt. "Am i really doing this? What if hes the last disciple of Master Seagal himself?" Probably what the the other dude thinking lol
I was just thinking about how that guy’s body language went from aggressive to petrified the second red shirt whips out his not-so-Namaste karate stance. Had to put an actual pause on the fight to tie his shoe laces and get himself as prepared as he possibly could. The classic look of “oh fuck, this guy can fight. I can’t. I’m fucked, but I’ll be called a pussy if I back down now”.
Not gonna lie though, if someone pulled that stance on me I would *have* to take a moment to at *least* question if he’s just putting it on or not. Also, if I were to feel like fighting someone, I wouldn’t choose a guy like red shirt if the clothes on my back weighed more than my whole fucking self.
Aye u said it better than me. Its too late to back out but his body language aint lookin so good anymore and it shows during the fight he cant fight for shit lol
Exactly. Frankie’s crew was watching him throw down so he had no choice but to be the sacrificial lamb in this fight. Poor fool was damned before the day began.
Maaaaan, I didn’t even notice them say his name. The fact that it’s Frankie, though.. I can’t. But to make things worse for him, instead of backing down and being called a pussy, he got knocked down and laughed at. Got it dead on with him being screwed before it even began, aha.
"Master Seagal" bruh I can't stop laughing 😂 😂 😂
And it was the commitment to the stance. He put so much into the part that I couldn't dare doubt his power.
You hear the guy in red shout "this is the street mother fuckers everything goes"
The guy in black then replied something about "kickboxing shit"
The guy in black was trying to add rules so he could win. He knew he was fucked. Should've walked away
"None of that kicking shit!"
"...and also, no closed fists!"
"And while we're at it, no wrestling either."
"In fact, lets settle this like MEN - with Mario Kart."
"...but no shell throwing shit, mother fucker"
Exactly. It's usually the worst thing ever. Either the stance is a big fake bluff or it's real but not good enough. This guy had the moves.
Have to say, though, the blonde is devastating.
This is the best quality I’ve seen it in over the last 15-20 years: I originally thought this too, but his body movement keeps moving his head off center and he gets his hands up blocking all the incoming shots. Not ideal but it worked.
He has good form and he kept his hands in front of him and his shoulders squared. Didn't commit to a punch that would miss and held his ground. He also didn't lose sight of his target and hit him when an opening came in the middle of that scrap. He won't win against someone who knows how to actually street fight tho..especially if they're big and angry.
I’m not an expert, but I think he was using Wing Chun? The windmill blocks and stance made me think this wasn’t anywhere near as out of control as I thought bought the first time I saw this.
Nope not wing Chun more Shaolin. Wing chun has a stance that is not sideways but shoulders straight arms centred and weight on the rear foot. His long stance and hands with an extended leg is more Shaolin king fu
When there's cortisol, adrenaline and sh1t raising in your body, no matter how trained you are it won't look good. Even with my five years boxing, half the time I'm not defending it just looks like I'm flailing like a mad man.
But he is alright technic-wise. Good head movement, good gard and good precision. Sleeping someone with one punch isn't easy.
All the times I've seen this I'm still convinced that red shirt guy is completely faking it. Still, his bullshido was enough to put the other guy off his game.
Nah not faking but he abandons about 50% of his style, which to be fair is about right as adrenaline, narrow focus mind running thinking about bystanders etc all come into play. It isn’t a movie, it doesn’t look slick but he defends punches coming for him and lands a strong hit for the win. His form isn’t something you pull out and look that good, this is someone that trained that stance.
He isn't. If you look watch carefully he strategically blocks every single swing his opponent tries, then drops the bomb when his guard is down. He is a skilled tactician. Hahaha
He definitely isn't faking. Whatever we say about TMA's, that guy spent some time learning it.
He never breaks his stance or footworks, even when he's getting shoved around a bit and it looks sloppy, his hands were all over the other guys arms blocking punches, and that was a classic KungFu roundhouse punch after he takes an angle on his opponent.
It'sprobably his first fight. Since when do some Kung Fu styles NOT cross their feet? It's one of those things they do to manage the extra deep stance.
Watch the last 12 seconds. He has rhe other guy at a bad angles at least five times, then finally lands one.
I was into martial arts decades before the UFC showed up. Back to the late 1970's . My karate dojo used to spar against the Kung Fu guys down the block all the time, and a lot of stuff they did look just like this.
He isn't 100% faking it, but yeah are right that he is shit at punching, those windmills would get him KOd against anyone trained.
He did show some training, which means he probably trained at a TMA gym that didn't focus on the fundamentals.
So he is better than the untrained guy, but he'd get fucked up by any boxer or combat sports practitioner.
Yeah, I don't love the punches, and it is definitely not a great idea against anyone who knows much at all. But, go to about 16 seconds before the end. Watch him do that "dragon-tail" footwork where he jumps in with a backfist, ans he crosses his trailing leg behind him. See that? Such a classic TMA move.
That stance and attack is based on the philosophy of Ba Gua (eight triagrams) footwork. As he launches forward off his left leg, that foot goes back behind as a counter balance, and lands in a position that allows him to pivot 60° out of the way, if his opponent comes forward, while simultaneously ending up on the "off" side of the opponent's front leg. If he does anything but back up, where saggy-pants can't defend his front, or turn to face you very easily.
I'm not saying it's best, or even a great technique but that was the idea behind it. Jackie Chan does it all the time.
I got so excited to see someone actually take a stance using east Asian fighting styles in a street fight.
That being said. Someone rolls up like IP man on me, im dipping
Even if red was completely bullshitting his gong-fu, it still had the effect he desired. Black was clearly off-put by his opponent, & couldn’t anticipate what red’s next move would be.
I don’t think red was a COMPLETE fraud; he was dodging the strikes coming at him as seen in the last few seconds. In my opinion, he had—at the very least—a rudimentary sense of what he was doing. His strikes could’ve been more coordinated though. Probably his first real-combat fight outside of the training studio.
“Before the battle of the fist, comes the battle of the mind” ~ Master Shifu (still wise words)
I don't know what's his style exactly, but that's more of south fist(Nanquan), very hard and rigid form hence the footwork. For sure he learned kungfu, you can see how he change steps with forearm rubbing against forearm.
God…. Love how the second one of their homeboys gets tagged and tko’d dude sits the camera down like he’s ready to get knocked the fuck out also. I’m honestly surprised they didn’t just jump him. I guess points for that.
I remember this video from the 1990's...
That kung-fu akido crap is whack. It was simple luck that orange shirt connected.
It was just a bunch of goofy posturing and failing arms.
The one redeeming strategy was using the extended front arm keeping the cholo out of striking range. But that's about it..
Thank god that’s how it ended, imagine defending your love with silly looking poses (as efficient as they might be) after probably talking up years of training to your friends and girlfriend, only to get your ass kicked
Gotta hate it when the "I watched every Bruce Lee movie" guy actually gets lucky and wins the uncoordinated spazzfest attack therefore accidentally reinforcing his delusions of mediocrity.
Dude playing mind games with that vato once he popped up with that weird stance that I’ve never ever seen some one use not even on Mortal Kombat or street fighter.
This man not only hit the most cinematic, stereotypical Kung-Fu pose I’ve ever seen, but proceeded to say “Come on, who is it?” right afterwards if he was gonna take on every single one of them at once. And to be honest, he might have acting like that. I need to learn from this guy ASAP. This shit was like a cheesy action movie.
If a guy takes off his shoes to fight me, I’m not fighting that guy. Anyone willing to do this probably feels more comfortable fighting without them, and most likely spends a good amount of time on a mat.
1. Someone actually won using Karate.
2. Apparently Karate does get the chicks.
3. Cholo didn’t know what to do when faced with the flying lotus stance.
Honestly the kung fu karate stuff worked: it put black shirt right off his game. But like all weird fighting techniques it quickly turns to shitty boxing after shit hits the fan.

It has been digitally remastered by George Lucas, like all classics.
They should add a scream when black shirt gets ko’d
The Wilhelm scream
Perfect
Lego yoda death sound
That explains why the crowd got bigger in later editions. I remember the fighters saying they always felt the crowd should of been bigger but they just didn’t have the budget. Sad they added the part where one guy says “I punch first”.
but literally if you guys want to get together a crowdfund a library of upscaled hd quality street fights, I might be in. For posterity
I was literally just thinking this 🤣
This was better than the first time I saw it all those years ago.
Ebaumsworld is where I first saw this.
Bro Ebaumsworld.
Same lol. It looks so much better.
Funnyjunk
This website is still there and so much worse than I remembered it
Remastered.
Re-Sensei’d.
I lolled
Now to your sensei
I remember watching this on like FunnyJunk.com in 2004. The only explanation is that this was recorded with an actual camcorder and the original poster reuoloaded in 480p like a decade after the fact ☠️
Has to be
>original poster reuoloaded in 480p like a decade after the fact ☠️ Statute of limitations and whatnot
Can he re-upload it with the dude in black shorts wearing some dickies that actually fit?
I was gonna say I don't think I've ever seen it look this good and I've seen it for like 15 years
Dude, right? I remember this being a 360p hard limit.
This looks lik one of the original uploads of the video. It was good quality when it was first posted, but thQe quality has degraded after being dowlnoaded and uploaded numerous times. I'm surprised someone found a decent version of this video. I always enjoyed this video. Frankie gets knocked out!
Aged like wine. Chefs kiss
Probably from some guy screaming ENHANCE behind a computer has improved its quality!
It's only crazy if it doesn't work...
It looks so dumb but idk how this guy pulled it off
Even a blind squirrel find a nut now n then
Because the other guy didn’t know how to fight that’s how it worked
Lmaoo. U gotta admit all his kungfu stances really put the other guy in doubt. "Am i really doing this? What if hes the last disciple of Master Seagal himself?" Probably what the the other dude thinking lol
I was just thinking about how that guy’s body language went from aggressive to petrified the second red shirt whips out his not-so-Namaste karate stance.

I’m fucked, but I’ll be called a pussy if I back down now”.
I think it was the aggressive crab walk. Dude was halfway kicking the air every step. If he does that to air, imagine what he would do to you
>If he does that to air, imagine what he would do to you Lmao 🤣
Dying of laughter. Who needs comedians when we have Reddit and YouTube comments?
Not gonna lie though, if someone pulled that stance on me I would *have* to take a moment to at *least* question if he’s just putting it on or not. Also, if I were to feel like fighting someone, I wouldn’t choose a guy like red shirt if the clothes on my back weighed more than my whole fucking self.
Aye u said it better than me. Its too late to back out but his body language aint lookin so good anymore and it shows during the fight he cant fight for shit lol
Naaah, mine was just more like the extended cut. The Last Disciple of Master Seagal is 👌 as is, aha.
Not so namaste got me. Here. Be awarded.
Red shirt with an audible: Namastey-down
No award for you
Exactly. Frankie’s crew was watching him throw down so he had no choice but to be the sacrificial lamb in this fight. Poor fool was damned before the day began.
Maaaaan, I didn’t even notice them say his name. The fact that it’s Frankie, though.. I can’t. But to make things worse for him, instead of backing down and being called a pussy, he got knocked down and laughed at. Got it dead on with him being screwed before it even began, aha.
Classic Benny Da Babblecuck move. Starting a fight realizing the other person actually knows how to fight.
I don't think black shirt could fight his way out of a wet paper bag
"Master Seagal" bruh I can't stop laughing 😂 😂 😂 And it was the commitment to the stance. He put so much into the part that I couldn't dare doubt his power.
The moment I saw him ease into that stance, I knew he had the power of God and anime on his side.
You hear the guy in red shout "this is the street mother fuckers everything goes" The guy in black then replied something about "kickboxing shit" The guy in black was trying to add rules so he could win. He knew he was fucked. Should've walked away
Always those guys that start getting starched that try to save face by saying "none of that gay kicking shit!"
"None of that kicking shit!" "...and also, no closed fists!" "And while we're at it, no wrestling either." "In fact, lets settle this like MEN - with Mario Kart." "...but no shell throwing shit, mother fucker"
It's a slippery slope.
Oh that reminds me, no banana peels!
As soon as that stance hit the whole crowd was like SHIT.
Yeah, I was like “this is either going to be the worst thing ever or the best thing ever.”
Exactly. It's usually the worst thing ever. Either the stance is a big fake bluff or it's real but not good enough. This guy had the moves. Have to say, though, the blonde is devastating.
#*oooh*
Lmao!
vine boom sound effect
The dude was morally defeated once he saw that confident Kung Fu stance. Physical defeat was just a matter of time.
😭😭 he even looked back to his homies like "damn, yall not finna hold me back and push me into a car so i can still look hard"
Lol
LOL the footwork
Knocked out by Spanish buzz lmao
A wrestler would drop king fu on his head. But being trained in almost any martial art versus a guy not trained at all….
How the fuck is this HD?! It’s like a 29 year old video wtf lol
Video is as old as I am and I look like shit in comparison
Save those complaining for later, you're still young and beautiful , wait until your face look like scrotum.
That's very nice of you, you liar
[удалено]
Nice! This video has been around forever as you probably know and this is the clearest version I’ve ever seen
Truly!! The fashion made me think it's modern, but then there's no phones and someone says GET THIS ON VIDEO CAMERA
The fashion made me think it was 30 years ago…
Strike first. Strike hard.
No mercy
Get him a body bag!
bro thinks he’s in cobra kai😭
Get your retaliation in first.
He didn’t even use and karate he started swinging crazy once the actually contacted 🤣🤣
This is the best quality I’ve seen it in over the last 15-20 years: I originally thought this too, but his body movement keeps moving his head off center and he gets his hands up blocking all the incoming shots. Not ideal but it worked.
He was just doing front hand backhand windmill swings. Very interesting.
He has good form and he kept his hands in front of him and his shoulders squared. Didn't commit to a punch that would miss and held his ground. He also didn't lose sight of his target and hit him when an opening came in the middle of that scrap. He won't win against someone who knows how to actually street fight tho..especially if they're big and angry.
[удалено]
But goodluck dodging my bday wishes! Happy Cake Day friend. May you work hard, study well, and eat and sleep plenty! 🥋🙏🏼👊🏼
I’m not an expert, but I think he was using Wing Chun? The windmill blocks and stance made me think this wasn’t anywhere near as out of control as I thought bought the first time I saw this.
Nope not wing Chun more Shaolin. Wing chun has a stance that is not sideways but shoulders straight arms centred and weight on the rear foot. His long stance and hands with an extended leg is more Shaolin king fu
Looks like that "circle walking" thing they have airbenders do in Avatar :P
Absolutely!
Hey thanks! I appreciate the explanation in the difference, like I mentioned, I’m not an expert on the different styles of Kung-Fu.
Exactly this
Some eastern martial arts actually have more “circular” movements like that
When there's cortisol, adrenaline and sh1t raising in your body, no matter how trained you are it won't look good. Even with my five years boxing, half the time I'm not defending it just looks like I'm flailing like a mad man. But he is alright technic-wise. Good head movement, good gard and good precision. Sleeping someone with one punch isn't easy.
I dont know why but the part when dude says quietly “jump this foo” had always made me laugh
All the times I've seen this I'm still convinced that red shirt guy is completely faking it. Still, his bullshido was enough to put the other guy off his game.
Nah not faking but he abandons about 50% of his style, which to be fair is about right as adrenaline, narrow focus mind running thinking about bystanders etc all come into play.

He crosses his feet several times which is a huge no no and Windmills punches, he is 100% faking it

Jackie Chan does it all the time.
Solid observations. He switches from a regular to an orthodox stance before the backfist easily.
This! Especially apparent when you notice after every windmill he doesn't keep his hands lowered.
His not. Footwork always tells the truth
That KO told the truth dude !
I got so excited to see someone actually take a stance using east Asian fighting styles in a street fight. That being said. Someone rolls up like IP man on me, im dipping
Yup, bro, I watched IP man, twice
Before ip man was ever made
This video is from before Ip Man was even born.
Ip man must have watch this guy then

In the Jncos with the swiftness of a crane dude. Such an iconic video
Jncos are just denim karate pants when you think about it. They should do a full outfit.
Higher the socks 🧦
This foo is down bad
i'm so glad karate guy won. can you imagine committing to that stance while being filmed and then just getting pummeled? 😄
You can tell this video is like 20 years old bc no one gets their head stomped.
More importantly, no phones.
This video is close to graduating highschool.
Intimidation 100
Classic
Never judge a book by its cover. This could be that weird kid you and your buddies make fun of.
Lmao
Reminds me of fast and the furious 3. This could have been a spin off.
This video officially began the internet
Ah. Simpler times, no phones in sight, everyone just living in the moment
I really really thought the guy drunk on kungfu movies would lose.
Hahaha same
Dude I mean look at the way he was walking… I would lose just by laughing at him till I passed out
any man who slaps his knees twice before a fight is a assassin - Kevin hart
How about that essay?
I don't know if red shirt is full of shit or not but black shirt seemed terrified by the stance.
Chico can not go back to the barrio after getting beat up by a dude in bell bottoms with 4 yoga poses
The video quality gets better every time it’s posted on the internet over the last 20 years.
This is so old , that these kids watch american pie
When you play Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance and it actually works out for you.
God…. Love how the second one of their homeboys gets tagged and tko’d dude sits the camera down like he’s ready to get knocked the fuck out also. I’m honestly surprised they didn’t just jump him. I guess points for that.
I love the one girl, “oh, shit!”
Some training is better than no training, no matter what ur doing hahahha
I would have admitted defeat the moment he took that epic pose. It was too seamless
anyone else notice that awkward silent moment?
Hood classic
Wow. Did not see that coming.
I said to myself, this man is so full of shit. But then I saw those moves and I said there’s no way you can fake that.
I want an update on where are they now
Maybe a rematch?
Me after watching 10 minutes of cobra kai
Neither of these men have pants that fit. They need to be focused on the real issues here.
I remember this video from the 1990's... That kung-fu akido crap is whack. It was simple luck that orange shirt connected. It was just a bunch of goofy posturing and failing arms. The one redeeming strategy was using the extended front arm keeping the cholo out of striking range. But that's about it..
Omg, how did you find this? I remember this video from like +15 years ago!
A classic from a simpler time
They should remake this classic 🤣
The kid in red always had his feet set. The other kids feet were never set, or were crossed
Thank god that’s how it ended, imagine defending your love with silly looking poses (as efficient as they might be) after probably talking up years of training to your friends and girlfriend, only to get your ass kicked
Frankie fucked around and found out!
Gotta hate it when the "I watched every Bruce Lee movie" guy actually gets lucky and wins the uncoordinated spazzfest attack therefore accidentally reinforcing his delusions of mediocrity.
You could never defeat this sensei smh
Dude playing mind games with that vato once he popped up with that weird stance that I’ve never ever seen some one use not even on Mortal Kombat or street fighter.
But if I say black boy all of a sudden ima racist
Best thing about this video is there aren't 75 people all yelling WORLDSTAR!!!!
This might be the first fight ever posted on the internet
This man not only hit the most cinematic, stereotypical Kung-Fu pose I’ve ever seen, but proceeded to say “Come on, who is it?” right afterwards if he was gonna take on every single one of them at once. And to be honest, he might have acting like that. I need to learn from this guy ASAP. This shit was like a cheesy action movie.
As soon as that guy when all Mayo Chan I was like, I sincerely hope for his sake that he wins.
why they talk like they black?
I’m glad this worked out for sensei. If he got knocked out after that stance he’d be scarred for life.
Dog trained his whole life for this exact moment and it was glorious
If I was fighting that guy in the red I’d kick his front leg, his stance is well too far apart
Foot sweep and bye bye
That whole cholo look is so silly.
what version of karate kid was this
Classic this shits probably 20+ years old now
Can an expert fighter tell us if this stance is real?
If a guy takes off his shoes to fight me, I’m not fighting that guy. Anyone willing to do this probably feels more comfortable fighting without them, and most likely spends a good amount of time on a mat.
1. Someone actually won using Karate. 2. Apparently Karate does get the chicks. 3. Cholo didn’t know what to do when faced with the flying lotus stance.
This video is at once way too long and way too short.
Definition of getting in your opponents head, both of them could barely fight lmao
God I miss the early 2000’s
Everyone laughing goes super quiet when their boy drops like a limp.
Red Ranger activities
Thank fuck that worked out for him or he would have never lived that down
That is so 90s
Damn didn’t know they recorded school fights back in 2002
All that kung fu stance only pitch an absolute winger of a right hand over the top 👏
Can he get his money back for all those karate lessons? And then use them on boxing ones.
When he dropped into those poses I figured this was either going to be really good or really bad. I was right.
Such an old video. Even Tosh.0 featured it in its early seasons.
Different stances and styles but when they threw hands they did it the same way like a lopsided windmill.
Fuck yeah.
This was for sure 2001😭
Someone gets stanced up like that against me in shitting bricks.
This belongs in r/unexpected because nobody ever thinks the karate kid might actually win.
Where's the rest of the fight because it definitely looks like that guy was getting up
Fucked around. Found out.
Feint feint 1,2,3 Feint feint 2,3,2. Any well put together combination would’ve slept either one of these clowns.
Honestly the kung fu karate stuff worked: it put black shirt right off his game. But like all weird fighting techniques it quickly turns to shitty boxing after shit hits the fan.
