Well I've wasted my time long enough posting about this situation.
First of all let me correct some misconceptions before I refer to both of you personally.
You both think that I have backed down from my own challenge since I haven't been online in a while.There are 3 main reasons why I haven't been on the board.
1)I didn't want to go ahead with any challenge with out making sure that it was ok with my sifu for the reason being that I didn't want to fight without my sifu knowing or to tarnish my schools image.I put my school in front of my needs.other people would have gone againts it without thinking foward.If it was some situation on the street it would be different so don't start with the mocking.CV that post was funny but I'm not a little child, I did what I thought was right.Traditionally it's not wise to go fight behind your sifu's back.
2)Hua Lin my older kung fu brother asked me not to post in that thread anymore ,I was going to open up a new thread but never did.Hua Lin is my senior so he has authority over me so I just followed orders.
Obviously you two do not know anything about proper etiquette.
3)I was practicing kung fu or doing other stuff.
I never backed down from any challenge.
Playing Mantis-
I received word from my sifu and she said that I can go ahead with it if I was serious but it's better not to waste my time since it does not affect my life.The challenge is still left open however.Since you live in Ohio it's not going to happen anytime soon but if you ever come to south florida you can contact me at shaolin96@hotmail.com or call (number now is with held,must e-mail for number)---be nice when you call I'm living with my family.Now you have to people to fight since you challenged Hua Lin also.
You didn't post your what I asked but you were smart not to since you know you would have gotten into a lot of trouble.Not only that you hide behind a screen name.I think it is
cowardly when people don't use their real names, and especially so for martial artists, who are supposed to be learning courage so I will post my info when you didn't.
Most people know me as andrew but my real name is Alvaro Andres Aragon so you can call me by either way.I have practiced wah lum tam tui northern praying mantis kung fu currently for about roughly 4 years and nine months.My first sifu was sifu Mimi Chan and I have trained under many sifu's and instructors under the style (too many to list on this thread, I'll save that for stacy's:D ) with Hua Lin being one of them and I currently study under sifu Shelly Durrel Huang.
Styles that I have sparred or semi sparred with using my kung fu:
Western boxing,wrestling(highschool),tae kwon do,2 types of kenpo (One was Villaris[sp?] I think)JWT or Hua Lin if you see this can you confirm these two styles?One was white tiger and the other was claled golden dragon,also 7 star mantis,maybe hung ga but I'm not too sure,hap ki do,regular guy who knows nothing fu (hey what else would you call it :p ) and little kid fu when they punch you in the family jewels and laugh,hung sing choy lay fut,yang style tai chi,yang style tai chi (does push hands count?
) of the yang chen fu lineage
Styles that were used on me for demonstrative purposes or that I was smacked around with or touched hands with:
Notrthern eagle claw (not Lau family though),wing chun,karate (don't know what type),ba gua, another type of ba gua (not sure if was traditional but the guy was fast),some other type of eagle claw but the guy didn't know his lineage,chin na (is this considered a style or technique?),dragon,tiger and leopard from hung ga,
Styles that I barely got to experince or seen up close:
Hsing yi,southern mantis,hung fut,bak mei (only two techniques were sued on me),liu he ba fa (I saw like only one application and that was it although I have seen my sifu perform on video),plum flower mantis,jeet kune do.
Styles that I came close to sparring or I have a connection to:
Jijitsu,some type of grappling,my mom took judo when she was small but I don't think that count's,cousin claims he did ninjistu (
:D ) and did karate.I have a cousin that did jeet kune do but since he didn't know what it was he called it free style karate.Two of my best buds do wu shu.
Wow I didn't know I'd gone through all that and that's just in the past 2 years!
Anyway as I was saying I haven't backed away from anything.You have all the info on me now what's yours since your so tough?
