The low side kicks too . It's quite a potent weapon for savate .

It’s not the full fight, though. If you watch all 9 rounds, the savateur did outscore Dekker by a decent margin and even did some solid damage to his face despite the lack of the boots

Dekkers is not a Nak Muay hes Kickboxing's trained adapted to Muay Thai so knees and elbows wasnt his strenght .

Have you seen savate fights stopped due to kicks? Maybe Thai and Dut h kickboxing are superior.

@@bruceparker6142 of course my friend .. its called hors combat (ko) and thoses chambered kicks (especially with the savate boots) are snappy , precise and quite powerful.

Try fighting under Muay Thai rules.

Nicolas Grepolis What a good life champ. I really would like to see the world in my 70’s

Don’t be sad my friend! You’ve lived a long life and I’m sure you have plenty of wisdom to pass on to someone who is willing to listen.

You are still young. A gentleman 68 years old joined us at our kickboxing session

Hey! You saw the 1960th and 1970th! I was born after that cool epoche and I feel sad about it because it's possible to watch those times in movies only. Every age has it's + and -.

this is mixed rules, but lots of the Dutch kick boxers competed in formal Savate/BF matches (tights and shoes) Ernesto Hoost was European Savate/BF champion in the late 80s/early 90s

nunya business Dekkers just had surgery on his right ankle dude...he is not kicking with right, and unable to push of with hos right leg...warrior

Stop bullshitting about Dekkers injuries: each time a french dude kicks his ass, it is because Dekkers was not 100%... No I disagree... Pennachio was smart and he was a super world champion of Savate.

@@gwentom1000 yes, so injures means nothing

Agreed! In Human weapon, the coach told the host to remember four things - always look at your opponent in the eyes, always guard up, always move, never change your stance. True indeed.

@@yongjiean9980 : That was Frenchman, Gilles le Duigou, who famously fought a contest against a Japanese Kickboxer, and had both his arms broken by the shin of the Japanese fighter in the first round. GLD still went on to win the fight in the 8th round. You can find the fight on KZfaq.

You know what though, and go ahead and dress me down for this if you like, but it seems like savate is an outside fighter style where if an opponent gets inside then the outside fighter is screwed. In that case, knees and elbows would be of no use to a Muay Thai fighter. On a side note, I think both styles mixed together would be a DANGEROUS cocktail.

Also no dumps are allowed so Deckers lost that too

Savate gave rise to the original Soviet boxing school, so you can still see similarities in post-Soviet fighters like Usyk and Lomachenko who use a lot of movement, feints and counterpunching

BREZ760 yes just watched joe rogan now who mentioned pinokio

BREZ760 yes

I am here because the king of Rohan.

Warrior hahahahhaa

Same here...I was watching Rogan and they mentioned this fight. "Savate" style. Sounds interesting.

Oui forcément puisque 1 moi avant dekker avais un combat important en Thaïlande donc sa.lui laisser pck plus de chance .mais crois moi quonpasse pas sinon!

bob yenan excuses

Thanks for the infor. I did not know they fought in Savate too. They are more of Dutch kickboxing. And Mr Ivan Hippolyte too

Savate kicks are also more precise because that’s the whole point behind their boots: hitting the liver in a hard boot is a knock out kick

Pas.meriter du tt

Il n'avait jamais boxé un mec aussi mobile qui feinte et qui enchaine. Il a pris une leçon de boxe....point.

Pascal claudet ta vu la vitesse de François dr plus il a de bon reflexe dekkers ne peut pas se permettre de lancer des assaut comme ça il c'est manger plein dr contre en plus

Pascal claudet ca me parait evident que dekkers est blesser a sa jambe droite.. de tout evidence il ne kick pas avec il boxe en gaucher parce que sa cheville etais fliguer et donc il na pas dimpulsion dynamique avec cette jambe....

Il n'a jamais eu d'impulsion sur ses jambes Ramon, il marche toujours, que dis-tu? Et Pennachio avait une gastro ce jour là de toutes évidence, il ne le met pas KO parce qu'il préfère ne pas forcer pour éviter d'avoir des problèmes... Quand tu montes sur un ring tu n'a aucune excuse à invoquer si ça ne se passe pas bien, sinon tu ne montes pas. Un rouste est une rouste ;)

Pascal claudet just because he was slower doesn't mean he should lose. He should be well rounded enough to fight anyone. Oui, Je parle fraçais. Un petite peux.

Pennachio is fighter from savate , that's why he is more evasive than dekker

that does not answer it. just being savate is not enough. he developed a style to fight this way.

or perhaps i am saying, there is something within the savate style that allows itself to address such challenges, when a master is at work.

personally, i think savate is a style that allows this, and not some ossifided style. i admire savate for this.

Dekkers is a pure dutch kickboxer who adapted his style against thai fighters . But muay Thai is full of tricks and can counter evasives fighters such as pennachio and others (savate, japanese style of Kickboxing, american kickboxing ) dekkers is clearly not a Muay Thaï Guy first he bas been succesful in muay thaï but ont a nak muay

Mobility and speed + power and precision …yeah I don’t think there is a standing martial art or combat sport who would compare .

Savate is extremely deadly. I practiced jkd and savate for ten years. Used my fighting skills as self defense twice, and both effectively defended me from serious harm.

Ramon dekkers in fact don't fight may Thai )he a Dutch kickboxing ,that beyond may Thai have a strong kyokushin and boxing base ,in fact if was traditional may Thai the result will be even worst for the Mt fighter, and Ramon dekkers clearely underestimate pennacchio by the way he only use right roundhouse kick to short space for boxing

who are idiot ? i just say that most people think that ramon dekkers is a muay thai fighter but he is a dutch kickboxer, course have a lot of muay thai but have other stuff too like karate ,boxing ,savate and even tkwd, dekkers dont use much savate in his kickboxing but gilbert ballantine and ernesto hoost do

pennacchio in the end of hes career fought morad sari that is great mt fighter in mt rules ,and although morad was heavier than pennacchio the fight ended up tied,but pennacchio almost won

CM Punk Devotee listen my friend, I just saw this fight for the very first time, great fight, but let me research if dekkers already had his infection and his multiple surgeries on his right leg of not. doesnt any body see that Ramon doesnt use his right leg to kick, he is fighting as a south paw, unable to generate power or any real trust with his right leg, you even see it when he throws the roght hand, its all body and arm, no leg, no power from the ground. I suspect this was not Ramon Dekkers in good shape unfortunatly. but great foght for the Italian french man...

Then don't take fights if you cant perform. Getting schooled is getting schooled and I think Dekkers would have been the last one to make excuses.

@@JohnJohnson-pq4qz people are making out Dekkers got his ass whooped without considering the milage he has on body. Keyboard warriors again showing no respect

​@@steoboylo5395 One thing has nothing much to do with the other. getting your ass whooped is getting your ass whooped (ie, getting kicked in the face does not hurt any less because you have lots of mileage on you. getting more brain damage is not doing you any good because you have mileage on you.). Fighting was Dekkers Job, if you cant do that job, then don't take the work....oh but I want the money...then you are going to take the criticism as well for doing your job like shit.-pretty simple. As for 'keyboard warriors' who the hell do you think was paying Dekkers?? the fans-thatys who..., so he was fighting for the fans, and he did not do his job very well-so they have every right to complain. As for disrespect...the only disrespect is to Panaccio, who clearly and unequivocally kicked Dekkers ass, humbled him, beat him like a drum..etc, etc...to bad for his 'mileage' but that day, that fight Pannacio was the man. so stop crying.

Mua thai rely more on power and toughness and savate on speed and evasion .

@marquis ballard Savate is much more aggressive style than Pure Muay Thai

Well the fact is that normally you don't need much power in savate kicks to hurt your opponent since they use boots .

No offence guys, but you sound like none of you have ever done either savate or muay Thai, making those kinds of wildly incorrect statements lol

pablo vrashka y Pennachio pelea con zapatos de punta reforzada. Los dos cedieron para la pelea

es su amante

@Riviere Marc I know what he said, they have good sportmanships. i know savate advantages, i know how savate is a good kickbox type. I just splitted some facts, after lot of savate fanboys saying their fighting style is the superior compare to others. next time if you will answer me please be chill and dont be emotional and/or frustrated

@Riviere Marc nah bro you are the frustrated person, because always trying to insult/offend me what is unnecesseary in a argument. I never said that Penachio is worse than Dekker, so I dont understand what is your problem. Im still just splitted some facts before we compete martial arts, which is better, what is so childish

@Riviere Marc nah, I you know you want to believe that, but my main purpose was not that

@Riviere Marc btw I didn't know that multiple surgeries in the right leg is an excuse

Facts are : A Thaï boxer and a savate boxer can't fight together because rules are too different. With his variety of "weapons" Thaï boxing is much more efficient than savate. The only kind of boxing they can meet, is kick boxing rules. Fact is if the savateur train to adapt the distances (shorter in kick boxing than in Savate) any kick boxer would be the same as Dekkers. I am a savateur, and I made some sparring with kick boxer and american boxer ( full contact) American boxing is a joke a bad mix of english boxing and karate. Kick boxer are slow, very predictable, with little tactics, all they want is sending powerfull blow with their back leg right in front of them. I can tell you, wearing my boots and using savate most of them didn't even understood what happened when I was sparing with them. If I had to list kick boxing by efficiency I'll say with no doubt: 1) Muay Thaï 2) Savate 3) Kick boxing 4) American boxing/ Full contact. Pennachio has adapted the technics and tactics of savate to kickboxing and even Muay Thaï. He won tournament in Muay Thaï and all Thaï boxers knew they had to go with clinches with him if they wanted to win.( look at the fight Pennachio vs Morad Sari, Morad Sari was the 1st western boxer to be Lumpini champion in Thailand in 1999. At the beginning he says I must go with my knees if I want to win...And he won with knees and clinches but each time Morad Sari was at fists and feet distance with Pennachio, he was punished.

This 'lame ass' was multiple times world champion (french boxing and kickboxing). Have some respect, dummy.

@@pawnoir probably some fucktard who thinks if it's not a style used in the UFC, then it's just some scrub.
