Heard of Moti Horenstein?

[wim]

The Hebrew Hammer they call him. I’d never heard of him before a little Krav Maga post on sherdog.com (surprisingly positive, for the most part):

I found this page on him:

Way to go! Any one else know anything about him?

I heard he was a karate practitioner when I saw him in the UFC. He never mentioned any Krav Maga. He might have won one match and then lost the other. From how I’ve seen him perform in the UFC, it showed he had little or no ground game then. He’s more of a striker or standup fighter.

It’s funny how usually one of the first things you see on a KM thread is the \”kicking a gun out of someone’s hand? omg wtf mcdojo\” thing 😀

He KO’d Patrick Smith, who was pretty tough back then, but lost all 6 of his other fights. To his credit, though, the guys he lost to were all badasses.

Moti is the chief instructor of Survival Hisardut (another Isreali style) He has currently been touring the East with Rohn and Mike Kanarek teaching the Isreali threesome, or something like that.

He is amazing if you have ever seen him strike. Unbelievable fighter,

I believe he is based out of Fla. now

I first saw Moti and his brother, Dimor, in the Shidokan tournaments. Both are very good fighters and would probably excell against those Moti lost too if they competed against him in the Shidokan. I give Moti alot of credit for going outside his comfort zone and competing against the best on their turf. At one time Moti also held the ISKA world heavywieght Muay Thai title, so he’s no pushover.
