How good is Cung Le?

[ChuanFa631987]

In your opinions, how good is Cung Le? Who exactly has he fought?
Who are other notable stars in Shan Shou/Sanda?

[ShaolinTiger00]

Cung is very good. He has great skill and has great conditioning. I think a san da match between he & Liu Hailong would be amazing! Without a doubt it would be exciting. (I've heard a rumor that Cung has already tried to get this fight.)

I've heard from a source that Cung now has BJJ black belt, (and amazing competitor) Garth Taylor teaching on Wed nights at his school and that Cung is getting better at subs every day. I foresee an attempt at MMA!

Isn't he kind of small for MMA? :confused:

the way i hear it is that smaller people are naturally better at grappling.
minus the versus a significantly bigger + stronger opponent factors.

i dont know dude
i dont think there is such rule
Minotauro for example is a big dude

[ngokfei]

same here
would love to seem him fight some high calibur/caliber? fighters

the last one I saw had him fighting this kickboxer from canada? on K-1 What a sad spectacle

his fight in hawaii against china was nice


imo he's going to have to travel there isn't much here. UFC would also be nice.

Who's the current light weight champion?

[Shaolinlueb]

cung le is very good. very very good.

[PangQuan]

Ill agree, Cung Le is very good. I would be very excited for someone with his background to go and enter some MMA cage fighting. Promote the Kung Fu !!!! :D

Well, to be completely honest here, last time I fought Cung he was a little soggy around the middle. He took my left jab like a little girl, what I mean is, whenever I hit him with my weakest tool, he fell over.
Also, I kept throwing this sweep, and I kept taking him down. Not only that but I started to feel so sorry for the guy I started warning him, like "Here it comes Cung! The Sweep of Death!" and he'd just fall over!

Anyway, he's been in better shape, I just think he needs to actually fight more.

red,

it is about time for you to bring out the video tape. I am sure someone would be happy to host such incredible find showing one of forum member kicking a high-caliber athlete's ass even if he was only 12 years old at the time. :)

[red5angel]

well Cung's trainer asked me not to videotape anything, you know, just in case I "got lucky" as he put it.
Don't get me wrong, he's a nice guy, he just can't take a shot. don't even get me started on his patented scissor kick takedown either, let;s just say it turns out Cung giggles like a schoolgirl if you tickle him on his feet.....

[PangQuan]

LOL your so funny red.

[Ming Yue]

He was pointed out to me in the gym when I was boxing in San Jose about 5 years ago. He was sparring at the time and I was very very impresssed. I understand he's a pretty nice guy to boot.

That would be badass.
Give cung some ground skills and hed be one dangerous mother ****er.

Translation: "OMFG he was hot. I wanted to lick the sweat off his six-pack. I bet he wouldn't ask for anal, either."
