MMA Vs Kungfu?

[red5angel]

Just wanted to throw a quick question out there and since the VS trolls seem to be out in force lately....

Does it seem to anyone else that those who practice MMA type stuff, or BJJ or Muy Thai, seem to be more aggressiveon the whole then those who practice Kungfu?

I don't think it's that MMA guys are more aggressive. I think their focus is different. Generally, MMA guys are into competing (same with BJJ) and kung fu guys just do their thing with very little need for competition. Maybe it's their competitive streak that seems aggressive? The BJJ guys I roll with are actually very passive - but they could ruin me if they wanted to. And the kung fu guys I train with can actually come off as more aggressive than the BJJ guys. I guess it depends on the person.

That said MMA does itself no favours by the way it portrays itself in the popular media.

Also, BJJ is not MMA so just 'cause MMA peeps are somewhat aggressive doesn't necessarily mean BJJ guys are.

Lastly, that's a bad thread title!

Nope, not at all. You get jerks in both camps.

Of course I could have summed it up in just one sentence too - but that would have been far too easy!!

I think its the hard training - it tends to filter out the pink tofu crowd.

YES! i finally got in on one of these threads early.

Suffering as I am from the flu, and watching the reactions of people around me, heck, judging by my own reactions, I'd have to say that TOXIC FLU F.ARTS are far more effective than either MMA or Kung Fu, especially when it comes to clearing out a room fast. Works good against multiple opponents, too.

This thread is lying atop a pile of flogged mincemeat that used to be a horse.
