Ok, I'd really like to understand something about this Challenging thing. I'ts a common thing in the movies to see challenge fights or grudge matches. recently here on this forum , The Willow Sword and Reemul I believe. How often does this happen nowadays in reality, maybe Its just my ignorance but this seems rather uncommon in this present day, I must admit though that it is a novel sort of exitement. How often does something like this happen ? And would anybody else here feel the need to prove thier styles worth , or even thier own worth as a fighter. Are there any sparring or fight clubs around , i mean other than boxing, or even any "underground" challenges?
I know this used to be a big thing in China / Hong Kong, but how often does something like this transpire here in America?,
I remember challenge fights in highschool in Jamaica. People dont seem to really fight with thier fists anymore its usually a more lethal means of settling conflict.
Also another question, lets say someone is skilled at the japanese katana , i forget the name of that art is it Iado? anyway lets say he has a problem with a chinese stylist , is it common to resort to weapons sparring or fighting.
Has anybody here ever fought with the weapons they train with. Knife fighters or escrimas or even swords or steel whip?
