What you see as fighting and I see as fighting are not the same. that's ok. i'm not against bjj because for someone who has been in enough street fights that went to the ground i know the benefit of BJJ. I don't put down any styles or methods. I recognize the hogwash and make sure my stuff is hog wash free.
I haven't condemned any fighting method. i only raise my hand to indicate that TCMA is on a Sunday Football game at the park with your friends while MMA is more on a NFL level. do you see my point. In MANY cases i totally agree with you and you make enough sense that i turn and look at what i teach so that my students don't get the short end of the stick.
and dude, my answer to you is one with my tongue sticking out at you...or smiled....but i answered you that way cause i knew it would push your buttons. i don't have filim of my guys fighting all out with no rules. in a controlled setting there are always rules. i know this. it's YOU who are running around like you have nothing better to do in life but get up the arses of TCMA people.
Additionally, there is a hand full of worth while people here on the forum. i'm not on here to impress anyone. so i have nothing to prove. i participate on this forum because its a community of Martial artists on all levels.
if YOU are not training BS to your guys, why waste your time and energy on a forum pent up with all that energy? LET or ALLOW the others to teach their mess. the way you go off all the time makes people think you're kinda off your rocker whether you make your points or not.
my question to you is this...why has this become your obsession? like you see, i too see the garbage some people talk about. and i mean from almost everyone here on the forum. but my sifu taught me to keep my mouth shut in most cases but sometimes what people come up with here on the forum is outlandish...too outlandish that i can't stay quiet.
to conclude, you know why i don't post up things we train other than very low level basics? cause i don't want outsiders to see how we train. it's a tradition of my lineage going back to the beginning. but moreso, i have nothing to prove. i'm not making wild claims like CLF beats all. i do say CLF has a great stand up game. i openly admit that its ground game is non existent.
but i'm not an open book for any old tom d1ck and harry to attempt to pick apart what i teach. i was raised in a secretive society and you can say that rubbed off on me. trust me, there is much more to me than i publicly share.
