Feel sorry for miguel cause it's like he's done what his told and is told different when he does it and the whole back being broken

@@kurtsno1309 he will recover and become the best version of himself. Miyagi do defence with cobra kai offence, and he shows mercy when he can, no mercy when he can't

@@olliebtw7806 exactly but i hope they have it where miguel wakes up in tge first episode but not the last one either

@@kurtsno1309 if it’s last then season 4 will be full of him. I expect a full recovery by the end or halfway maybe

Yup it was bold af

Bowzer240 218, to be fair, kreese didn’t do any crappy shit till Daniel provoked him by targeting cobra kai

I’m pretty sure it does. Offense is the best defense, so they say

Gold W kreese will beat the shit out of Miguel lmao

silyan Rang ok

All the John Kreeses of the world are top-dog fighters until they actually run into the Clubber Langs and Ivan Drogos that are out there. Even pitiful fools like Cobra Kai can be broken...

glenwo2 I don’t think so ........... just like Johnny Miguel is a golden cobra 🐍 he will put up a great fight just like Johnny

Kreese in his prime would have put that kid in a body bag!

Lope I don’t think so.......... he would have made him the star of cobra 🐍 kai he is already impressed with Miguel talent

Guys remember Kreese playing the long game here. Kreese didn’t want to rock the boat especially with Johnny’s number 1 student.

Viva los Mexicanos !!!!!!

That's what happened when you keep your body in shape

I know right. I literally had a Mandela effect moment. But when I watch the clip from but when I watch the clip from from the original Karate Kid I did see the difference. But he does look really good

his hair changed a little bit

@El Matador yeah i know that lol . But your right Martin Kove( kreese) Ralph macchio (daniel) and William Zabka (Johnny) are all in great shape considering there in their mid fifties to mid seventies. Lifestyle over age as I always say

Idk, he looks way different to me now. I am not saying he looks bad, but to me he looks completely different. Even the difference in Karate kid 1 and 3 confused me. To me his entire face structure changed.

Just wait till you see how John Kreese changed at the end of season four.

1:10 look at Miguel’s face he wasn’t scared one bit 😂

just Robby says Terry Silver teaching is bullshit

Yep.

ComixAndCartoonPro kreese will fail even worst then 80s!!

I would love to see that. Hopefully more depth will happen with other characters from season 1 as well.

yeppp i cant wait for people of myagi do to see his sad past and understand what its like to be bullied and why STRIKE FIRST STRIKE HARD NO MERCY MEANS!!!

I hope we see a young Kreese and a young Terry Silver fighting together in Vietnam.

Still Kreese had a choice to make on whether or not he would let his past define him or if he would leave it all in the past and move on but he didn't, he also chose not to get help after Vietnam and instead let what happened to him turn him into the man he is, living a merciless life and letting your past make you who you are will never help you succeed, it just means other people are gonna get hurt because of you

More proud of Johnny than he would be of Daniel thats sure.

FappyMealsHD yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying. Making a mistake is one thing, but learning from it and changing for the better is completely different.

@Kermit The Frog Well put

@Kermit The Frog Amen to that, Daniel was always the bully

@FMHD Realization to your mistakes and trying to reprimand them is quite honourable. And it does deserve respect.

wow I missed that somehow xD

@@theflashgordon193 6:37

The world shows us no mercy. That's why I had a vasectomy. Because I didn't want to bring a child into a world where no-one cares about anyone but themself. So I can see where Kreese is coming from. Life can be very unfair.

I understand

He didn’t even know him 😂so that’s y

Bet he had a wife or girlfrend... no wonder hes so bitter lol

@@actuary1233 I have my suspects than Kreese is Johnny father

That would be wild

Nah it'd just be scenes from from Rambo 2 lol

I hope so!

So true..life is all gray n nothing is clear cut

Johnny didn’t tell his students to always show mercy but only show it sometimes

Greg jackson Its a double edged sword!

Contrary to popular urban mythology, life is clear-cut and 9/10x the opposite of what it appears to be. The laws of non-contradiction must never be defied. There are never times to show mercy to your enemies. There are never times to do anything half-assed. Sensei John Lawrence taught his students the same thing until he started going soft when he started talking to his nemesis Daniel LaRusso, reconnecting with his son Robby Keene, and bonding with his student Miguel Diaz’s mom Carmen Diaz. If Sensei John Kreese’ students wanna blame Sensei John Lawrence for what Robby did to Miguel, they might wanna blame Carmen Diaz once they find out the influence she’s been having over him. Daniel LaRusso‘s mostly at fault because he refused to leave the past where it was. Sensei John Kreese is partially at fault because he refused to leave Vietnam where it belongs. Carmen Diaz is partially at fault because of her unrealistic influence on Sensei John Lawrence. I hope Sensei John Lawrence realizes this in Season 3.

War against foreigners isn't the same as fighting on the mat.

YESS SIR!!

Yes strike first Strike hard No mercy

Yep. Your either a winner or a looser, a swimmer or a sinker. no mercy no weakness.

Wow

Yes RLD

Sensei John Laurens can and does differentiate between the 2. He started out teaching that difference until he started to get soft when he started talking to his nemesis Daniel LaRusso, reconnecting with his son Robby Keene, and bonding with his student Miguel Diaz’s mom Carmen Diaz. I hope he realizes what unrealistic influence she’s had over him in Season 3.

@@miguelpasamano6445 Johnny can defrientiate but kreese can't

Andy Seabrook Fitness, yes but if u get into the habit of showing mercy in sparring then u’ll end up doing the samething in a real fight

@@andyseabrookfitness8693 and yet Kreese explained the diffrence

Actually kreese said that in the beginning of the video if you haven't watched it dumbass

Yep he wants his students to be pitbulls. It’s harsh but in a real fight you would most likely do it. You can’t be weak and merciful.

He keeps saying about the things hes seen in his life so has serious PTSD and it is backed up by his everything is a war attitude

He’s wrong all he cares about is winning

@@josesaenz7757 he is to afraid to loose because in war he probably suffer the lost of soldiers under his command

Actually, aside from Miguel, all the Cobra that lost didn't show mercy and they still got dropped.

@@JohnPerry27 i mean it as in the hesitation to monologue or gloat instead of dropping their opponents first

@@joebroaol That's true. However, one thing I do gotta say: Kreese keepa talking about how in real life and on the streets you should be ruthless in your fighting. But in real streeta fights opponents are often armed with knives and guns, and you can't Cobra Kai against those. So either way, Kreese's teachings still fail.

John Perry yea but I’m war u will also have a weapon his teaching is best in the show

@@JohnPerry27 I mean, technically you can. There are methods that can use if someone is holding a gun or knife to you. And who is to say he is just talking about the karate? He could also be referring to the state of mind, use Cobra Kai's ideals and apply them the real life scenarios like how Miguel applied Johnny's never accept defeat to asking out Sam.

pvtjoker, they refuse to understand simply because Tory is psycho

I understand what you mean. But do you understand that "fight for every inch" doesn't mean screwing others over for no reason other than "winning"?

Everyone has a sob story, but that doesn't give you the right to be a bully. My former boss is living proof of that, and he paid dearly for that.

I understand the statement very well hell Im actually one of those people. A lot school counselors thought I wouldn’t make it in high school because I had ADD. But let me tell you this I proved them wrong. But in the world their is such things as forgiveness, love and mercy. The world isn’t sunshine and rainbows yes but their is good in this world. But being merciless doesn’t make you weak or pathetic in crease’s mind he makes you stronger then the very bully that bullies the kid. Winning isn’t everything sometimes losing and actually help you grow as a person. It shows that in life we won’t always win but we do learn how to be better and how we can be winners in our own way.

@Robert Barbeau If Sam is guilty of anything, it's about her jumping to conclusions. A LaRusso trait that had been passed down from generation to generation unfortunately. It might've seemed strange coming from Sam, but at the same time, that quote is very true. Everyone has a sob story, but that doesn't give you the right to be a bully.

I wish but the landlord was the heavy set middle eastern dude. Silver finances Cobra Kai I think in the original. At lrast, till Kreese gets students to pay Silver the money back.

@@pantangela Nah, landlord was Armenian

@@pantangela The landlord is Azimat. Borat's producer and friend.

@@pantangela No it's that Fat Guy from Borat.

@@aboundingvampirekiller2048 no it’s Miguel’s Grandma

*SPOILERS, GO WATCH IT, ITS BEEN HALF A YEAR* You predicted it perfectly

It was also a callback to how Johnny introduced Kreese as a visitor earlier in the season

Tory was about to put Mitch to bed with a knee to the head. He was lucky Miguel spoke when he did.

What if Tory is the actual granddaughter of Kreese and it wasn't just prison aliases?

Krease is wrong

There is. You might want to examine how you make decisions

And ultimately Miguel didn't got hurt gravely because of "Mercy". He was hurt because Robby had pent-up anger and made a grave mistake no different to how Miguel treated him the past seasons... Mercy here was never the problem, it was the toxic ideology of making everyone your enemy and not stopping to talk

Miguel showed mercy to Robby.. Robby didint and kicked him over the rail and he broke his spine cos of it... it’s clear Robby is the villian

@@isa.bel_he was angry because of Miguel who jumped on him with no reason. Miguel strikes first, so don’t expect he receives mercy

Ikr.

2 years later but I might have an answer to "why should we show mercy?" When you go with the flow you can't expect anything to change or to get better. We should show mercy to give others a good example, to tell them there is another way. The outcome would be obvious for those who want to see.

So do we have to be too ? That’s what unfair life expects from you.

Yep that’s accurate

Mortal Kombat aint got shit on John Kreese

When you shed your weakness , that’s the time to show your true strength

Soft? I think more merciful but that does not make you weak... Kreese thinks you have to win EVERY time.. that is not possible because by losing you gain experience in real life and situations.....

Yes. Soft. In a fight, showing makes you weak. SenSei John Kreese says you fight only to win, your fight's only over when you say it is, and defeat does not exist in his dojo. Miguel Diaz got kicked off the rail because he got soft because SenSei John Lawrence got soft because of Carmen Diaz' unrealism. If he dies, that's on her for her unrealism, Daniel LaRusso for his antagonism, and that slut Samantha LaRusso for her manipulations.

Miguel Pasamano woah dude it’s just acting

Miguel Pasamano geez calm down dude, you’re talkin about fictional teenagers lol

Its true and he’s right , in the real world you can’t show mercy. You have to leave them so they are unable to fight back.

Face Off different war. Creese was fighting Viet Cong insurgents who wore no uniforms, and blended in with civilians. He was also in Special Forces who often cannot take prisoners because of the nature of their mission.

Nikolaij Brouiller agreed

Andy Wood modern war the enemy has no honor. Shut it cuz you have never been to war

What was the name of the book

@Nikolaij Brouiller But then again, US used Agent Orange and chemical weapons just decades before they invade Iraq for the false accusations of Bioweapons while the chemical weapons which they themselves gave to Iraq, it's all pursuits of interests and bending law, morality and values of interests to one's whim for consummation by powers

Never instigate the fight but if you find yourself in a situation you strike first strike hard and show no mercy.

Great stuff... when the family business gets affected and Anthony gets seriously bullied with his extra weight, Daniel's wife will have a change of heart about "no karate" policy.

DefLeppardVanHalen I think you’re definitely on the right track! I always thought that piece of shit Terry Silver helped Kreese with everything (getting Cobra Kai back, starting shit with Miyagi-do) I bet Mike Barnes will also return.

I have this exact theory. I definitely think Terry Silver has been helping Kreese behind the scenes the whole time, it would best explain how Kreese was able to own the dojo despite being "homeless" (I believe he faked that just so Johnny could see him at a low point, remember that Johnny didn't trust Kreese until that point). Not just that, but Terry had connections with a guy named Willie Cole in Karate Kid 3. Tom Cole could be a relative.

Yeah I was wondering if they were going bring in terry silver eventually. Really, unless Silver is dead or lost his fortune somehow, I dont think he would just let Kreese live in he gutter like that. Once Kreese took back Cobra Kai, not only through force but also legally appearantly, it definitely seems that theyll at least implicate Silver in some compacity. Idk about Barnes though, he was only like 19 or 20 at the time, people grow and evolve. If he does come back then theres a lot of possibilties of which direction to take that character, good or bad intentions.

Daniel started the war and kreese isn’t one to back down. He didn’t start cobra Kai in the 70s to wage war did he. He started it to help kids and teens in the real world.

@@user-vh2pb7qx6b well he teaches his students the same things he learnt in Vietnam. When they are karate students not soldiers

@@andybutch3622 He doesn’t want his students to make the mistake of showing mercy. In Vietnam he showed mercy and look where that got him , in a cage in a Vietnamese compound. He teaches his students lessons he learned from his own life experiences through karate.

I agree. Not saying Miguel deserved what happen but he certainly contributed big time to his downfall.

Your sensei is a pussy...

YES SENSEI !!!

If he really wanted to show mercy, Miguel should have knocked him out or put him in a sleeper hold. But never let your guard down in a fight

That's a fan theory.

And by that Terry Silver is the worst option 👏😆

lmao Kreese is a psychopath

Realistically he’s right bcuz he’s been through shit in Vietnam so he knows what it takes to fight in the streets

Hey I saw a few of your comments and check out this video here of me.. I think i match the energy and intensity of some of the cobra kai people: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nJOXZsWIu7O9p2Q.html

sorry but that's your opinion. Do you see fighters in boxing easing up when they've got their opponent hurt? no, they go in for the finish. The fight is over when one can't fight back anymore or if they both last till the end, then the judges decide.. You show mercy in a real life fight and give your enemy a chance to fight back, you can end up like Miguel. Fight smart, nice guys finish last.

AnyDayView I’m trained 3 different fighting styles. A match vs life is different. If someone is defenseless I’ll show mercy and don’t turn my back.

@@KryptonPlayer That's because it's their JOB to do that. All the more famous martial artists have even said that the best thing in a street fight etc., is to run away and only fight IF COMPLETELY NECESSARY. Bruce Lee among others said this. Also, the writers were on drugs in the last fight. The entire moment with Miguel showing mercy was so badly done. Especially since HE started the fight with Robby, and continued it several times.

@@Hitmonchris5678 a defenseless person is someone who can't fight anymore. This situation is not the case.

@@emeraldashborers4261 unnecessary fights are always unnecessary. Miguel intervened only after Robby got involved with Tory and Sam's fight. Don't get confused.

That's what I learnt, Kreese is 100 percent right

I used to hate kreese, but with what happened to miguel and him always talking about vietman and not showing mercy, I feel like one of his friends was killed cause they was trying to show mercy and since then kreese knew better. Despite him hyping up false claims to some of the things he did, he really was in the special forces at a time. Now being older and seeing different shades of life, showing no mercy does make alot of sense.

When you show no mercy over the years you end up in homeless shelters at the age of 70 threatening people and being a miserable loser. What happened to Miguel wouldn't have happened if he hadn't been corrupted by the no mercy ideal in the first place. Your argument just doesn't hold up.

But when you show no mercy you become a prick to society. Sometimes forgiveness is the right answer. Look at the Middle East, look at Palestine, hell look at Asia. When you don’t show forgiveness the world goes to hell. Kreese embodies a Filipino saying, “Every person can be turned into a soldier, not everyone can be turned back.” He can’t let go. Not showing mercy leads to terrorist attacks. We don’t live in a perfect world, but that doesn’t mean we can’t strive to make one.

@@goastlyarrowplays If you had 2 choices would you either A. Snap someone's arm. or B. Get kicked off a 3-story railing breaking your neck, back, etc. and potentially being in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. I don't know about you, but I'm choosing A.

Miguel was one of hawks best friends.. and Hawk deserves to be mad at Johnny cos he told miguel to show mercy.

​@@isa.bel_if he didn't show mercy he'd be the one in jail leaving Carmen angry at him for life.

She was going to finish him with a knee to the head. He’s very lucky Miguel interrupted it.

Yeah true, but in s3 she is the villian

Not gonna lie before season 3 I starting to respect Tory then after season 3 I lost my respect for Tory

Cause they are all friends. But Tory was gonna knock him out badly until Miguel interrupted.

@@tvalokibatman6563 That's the exact stuff I think about Sam only difference is she hasn't gained my trust to begin with

Frrrrr I love kreese and the way he teaches

That kind of philosophy is why society will become worse and worse over time, this world is cruel yes but that doesn't mean we should stoop down to that level. And what's wrong about having morals? Without that we would be no different than the animals in the wilds or the cavemen in the stone ages. In wartime then Kreese's philosophy would work but in peace time that would get people nowhere in life. Kreese is deranged who can't seem to think that there's more to life than just war. Keep pissing on the whole world and sooner or later the whole world pisses back at you.

@@ragedeath7663 I'm not saying be an asshole I'm saying don't be a doormat and keep your guard up., Because if you're too nice you might be taken for a ride. You truly believe the world is all sunshine and rainbows, and people are incapable of of being anything but nice? wow.

@@carlosr3523 Like I said I know the world is a cruel place, I never said anything about the world being all nice, you can still keep your guard up and not be a doomat while still having your morals, I agree that being too nice doesnt end well but so does being too much of a hardass but that doesnt mean that one should compromise ones own humanity or morals. Your original comment relates much to Kreese's philosophy but your reply relates to Johnny's so I got confused for a moment. I'm always intrigued by good-aligned characters that get put in a cruel world but by the end of it they never broke down instead they became hardened good-aligned characters.

@@ragedeath7663 I guess I worded it wrong. I don't mean be a scumbag with no morals. What I mean by morals is that TV & movies like cobra kai teach you to do the right thing and be nice and put others before yourself, and good things will happen and the bad guy always looses, which is a false reality the world is not like that. I've been around the block I'm a bit older and I can tell the world is a pretty ruthless place. And sometimes in order not to be taken advantage of, one has to play ball and not be so nice. It's a shame really but it's the world we live in. And btw I'm just stating my opinion and I appreciate your opinion as well, you made some good solid points as well. Cheers

Daniel will help him

Yep

Not Cobra Kai just kreese

That’s not because he showed mercy. There is a difference between showing mercy vs lowering ur guard. Never expect ur opponent that share ur sense of honor
