I usually do not think that you could learn a style very well solely from videos. However, boxing has the least mount of techniques of just about any martial art. So do you think that it is possible for a person to learn how to box from a video? Thanks in advance.

Yeah, Rolls says it is. What's more, he says that you can learn to fight just by playing kiddie games on your computer.

Of course, he's an awesomely deadly fighter himself, who knows video-game moves that can devastate any martial artist who isn't a grappler. Why, he even fought (to a draw yet!) someone he totally made up and even today he still challenges other screen names of his own making on KFO! And he's only a white belt in grappling, uh, or wrestling, or spanking the monkey style, or something like that.

Anyway, that kind of fight-preparedness is awesome. I totally respect anybody who gets martial arts knowledge from the pages of Readers Digest. Any true martial artist knows that Readers Digest is a f*cking gold mine of information regarding MA.

Did I mention Rolls is awesome? He is. Uh, awesome, that is.

AWESOMELY G*DD*MN STUPID!!

If you have some experience punching, you can modify your techniques to conform to the boxing structure. I suppose that could be learned from a video.

I hate to admit that I find anything that Rolls says is amusing, but his reference to his patented Flying Eye-Gouge™ and Spinning Beotch Slap™ techniques still make me laugh when I think about it. :D :rolleyes:

Reading Rolls' posts is like experiencing a strange and slightly dangerous form of schizophrenia - one moment you're infuriated and the next you're laughing at his moments of wit, then hating yourself for laughing.

As time goes by I become increasingly conviced that Rolls is an A.I. program unleshed on us by the CIA's MKULTRA PsyWar program. Pretty soon I will find myself laughing at one of Rolls' posts, then instantly hating myself for laughing, then slip into a trance state which prompts me to go directly to the local bookstore, buy a copy of Catcher in the Rye, then proceed to the local BJJ school in a futile self-destructive murderous rampage to challenge all the NHB fighters in simultaneous death matches. :eek: :mad: :rolleyes:
