It's all B/S
kung fu tournaments are a fraction, of a fraction, of a small percentage.
No one talks to anyone or coordinates anything.
This is why Kung fu is essentially dead.
The kung fu guard is simple: Put your **** hands up.
It's 2012.
The whole idea of challenge matches is a joke.
Fantasy kung fu world is over.
BBQ? I'm there :D :cool:
:rolleyes:
The competition in the female divisions is tough :cool:
This one is worth the trip!
Open tournaments suck. Competitng in one is an exercise in futility. Being judged by some karrody guy or screaming TKD 1 year black belt is not worth the money spent on entrance fees because they...
No, there's no point in rehashing the same debate that occurs over and over again. I get the message...there's a lot of CMA that trains poorly, or has completely omitted the martial aspects and that...
I don't get it. If a CMA person uses a punch and it's "real close" to what Chuck Liddel uses, it still sucks because of how they train? So hitting pads, timing drills, and sparring sucks because...
Lower? Why lower? Is lower better?
And, for the record, sir.. (yes, i saw the unedited post).. i served this country in one of those lovely affairs where "the very establishment that defends and preserves your right to do so" did a...
What a load of crap!
How many radical Christian groups carry out guerilla warfare in Islamic countries and train suicide kamakaze-like brainwashed followers to blow up unwary citizens?
And...
"these people" are the ones who make statements like this:
And whose actions support such insane rhetoric.
Did the pope openly threaten all of Islam? No.
Where is the outrage...
Yes, I've been hit by phoenix eye. But guess what...It hurts to get hit, kicked, and otherwise struck in a variety of manners. BTW...Have you seen mma gloves lately? look them up under google. ...
That's really sad Jared1211. How do you test your kung fu to know that it works? Can you even spar? Or is that too limiting?
We tend to fear what we don't know.
Chin Na is always best as a response in a self defense situation where you are attacked, especially when the attack is a grab or immobilization technique or as a disarming move. In a fight...i.e. ...
How has mma impacted kung fu? Haha, well, it's revealed a lot of baloney. It's going to keep getting harder and harder to find students willing to believe how deadly and dangerous thier...
Not bad TT, this is something I can agree with.
Gabe, I'm not going to say your wrong, and I respect your choice to dissagree.
Here's how I see it:
The problem I see comes in when the "rules...
Someone please explain in detail why SPM won't work in mma or under a similar rule set?
Sounds like an excuse for lack of experience. It's just plain silly to say that any CMA can only be used...
Thanks, I enjoyed watching that.:cool:

The premise of CMA? No.
I gather from your post you've been unable to find a teacher who has the relative experience or desire to train students in the martial aspects. Keep looking...they're...
Congratulations to USCKF North Region director Shifu Ferriera and all competitors at yesterday's first North Region tournament!!! This was truly an amazingly well done event. All of the...
Hope to meet some of you there! It's going to be a great event!!!:cool:
