why chinese wrestling dont go to the ground, wearing 40 pound armor and being taken down can knock you out easy, dont need to go to ground
also ufc rules favor ground fighting, if you have seen art of war mma chamionship on cctv in china, they allow kicking a guy on the ground. many times a guy goes into ground guard and the other guy just kicks him nonstop and get so many points from that
I will have to admit that the Cartmell stuff is intriguing and I may have to buy that book just to get an idea of where it comes from.
One can use circular argument to that.
IF ground work came from Japan, for example, where did they get it?
It's a well know fact that Japan and Okinawa borrowed many things MA related from China.
One could debate that, perhaps, ground work came from china, "evolved" in Japan and cam back to China.
